Quantitative and qualitative aspects of standing-up behavior and the prevalence of osteochondrosis in Warmblood foals on different farms: could there be a link?
van Grevenhof EM, Gezelle Meerburg ARD, van Dierendonck MC, van den Belt AJM, van Schaik B, Meeus P, Back W
Background: Osteochondrosis (OC) is a common, clinically important joint disorder in which endochondral ossification is focally disturbed. Reduced blood supply to growing cartilage is considered an important cause of the condition, which has both genetic and environmental origins. Housing conditions can influence cartilage injury through peak-pressure changes during limb sliding. Additionally, circulatory perturbation can cause the avascular necrosis of cartilage. In this study, we evaluated the...

As the second term of our commitment to Journal begins, we, the editors, would like to reflect on a few topics that have relevance today. These include prognostication and paradigm shifts; Serial testing: How to handle data? Is the change in perfusion predictive of outcome and which one? Ischemia-guided therapy: fractional flow reserve vs perfusion vs myocardial blood flow; positron emission tomography (PET) imaging using Rubidium-82 vs N-13 ammonia vs F-18 Flurpiridaz; How to differentiate micr...

Six extant species of non-human great apes are currently recognized: Sumatran and Bornean orangutans, eastern and western gorillas, and chimpanzees and bonobos [1]. However, large gaps remain in our knowledge of fine-scale variation in hominoid morphology, behavior, and genetics, and aspects of great ape taxonomy remain in flux. This is particularly true for orangutans (genus: Pongo), the only Asian great apes and phylogenetically our most distant relatives among extant hominids [1]. Designation...

Kuijvenhoven JC, Crombag L, Breen DP, van den Berk I, Versteegh MIM, Braun J, Winkelman TA, van Boven W, Bonta PI, Rabe KF, Annema JT
Background: Mediastinal and central large vessels (T4) invasion by lung cancer is often difficult to assess preoperatively due to the limited accuracy of computed tomography (CT) scan of the chest. Esophageal ultrasound (EUS) can visualize the relationship of para-esophageally located lung tumors to surrounding mediastinal structures. Aim: To assess the value of EUS for detecting mediastinal invasion (T4) of centrally located lung tumors. Methods: Patients who underwent EUS for the diagnosis and...

Long-term survival and secondary procedures after open or endovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms.
van Schaik TG, Yeung KK, Verhagen HJ, de Bruin JL, van Sambeek MRHM, Balm R, Zeebregts CJ, van Herwaarden JA, Blankensteijn JD, DREAM trial participants
Objective: Randomized trials have shown an initial survival benefit of endovascular over conventional open abdominal aortic aneurysm repair but no long-term difference up to 6 years after repair. Longer follow-up may be required to demonstrate the cumulative negative impact on survival of higher reintervention rates associated with endovascular repair. Methods: We updated the results of the Dutch Randomized Endovascular Aneurysm Management (DREAM) trial, a multicenter, randomized controlled tria...

Stenström I, Maaniitty T, Uusitalo V, Pietilä M, Ukkonen H, Kajander S, Mäki M, Bax JJ, Knuuti J, Saraste A
Aims: Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) can cause angina in the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). We studied the frequency and angiographic characteristics of CMD in symptomatic patients with suspected stable CAD and identified CMD as diffusely abnormal coronary vasodilator capacity by positron emission tomography (PET) perfusion imaging. Methods and results: We recruited prospectively 189 patients with intermediate pre-test probability of CAD who underwent coronary co...

Localized Optogenetic Targeting of Rotors in Atrial Cardiomyocyte Monolayers.
Feola I, Volkers L, Majumder R, Teplenin A, Schalij MJ, Panfilov AV, de Vries AAF, Pijnappels DA
Background: Recently, a new ablation strategy for atrial fibrillation has emerged, which involves the identification of rotors (ie, local drivers) followed by the localized targeting of their core region by ablation. However, this concept has been subject to debate because the mode of arrhythmia termination remains poorly understood, as dedicated models and research tools are lacking. We took a unique optogenetic approach to induce and locally target a rotor in atrial monolayers. Methods and res...
