Making a Lecture Stick: the Effect of Spaced Instruction on Knowledge Retention in Medical Education.
Timmer MCJ, Steendijk P, Arend SM, Versteeg M
Introduction: Poor knowledge retention is a persistent problem among medical students. This challenging issue may be addressed by optimizing frequently used instructional designs, such as lectures. Guided by neuroscientific literature, we designed a spaced learning lecture in which the educator repeats the to-be-learned information using short temporal intervals. We investigated if this modified instructional design could enhance students' retention. Materials and methods: Second-year medic...

Anticoagulant treatment and bleeding complications in patients with left ventricular assist devices.
den Exter PL, Beeres SLMA, Eikenboom J, Klok FA, Huisman MV
Introduction: The treatment options for advanced heart failure patients drastically changed with the introduction of left ventricular assist devices (LVADs), either as bridge to transplant or as destination therapy for patients ineligible for transplant. Despite major benefits in terms of survival, functional status and quality of life, managing patients with LVADs comes with several challenges. The most significant challenge is balancing between the risks of thrombotic and bleeding complication...

Self-restoration of cardiac excitation rhythm by anti-arrhythmic ion channel gating.
Majumder R, De Coster T, Kudryashova N, Verkerk AO, Kazbanov IV, Ördög B, Harlaar N, Wilders R, de Vries AA, Ypey DL, Panfilov AV, Pijnappels DA
Homeostatic regulation protects organisms against hazardous physiological changes. However, such regulation is limited in certain organs and associated biological processes. For example, the heart fails to self-restore its normal electrical activity once disturbed, as with sustained arrhythmias. Here we present proof-of-concept of a biological self-restoring system that allows automatic detection and correction of such abnormal excitation rhythms. For the heart, its realization involves the inte...

Performance of the pattern-based interpretation of p53 immunohistochemistry as a surrogate for TP53 mutations in vulvar squamous cell carcinoma.
Kortekaas KE, Solleveld-Westerink N, Tessier-Cloutier B, Rutten TA, Poelgeest MIE, Gilks CB, Hoang LN, Bosse T
Aims: The most commonly mutated gene in vulvar squamous cell carcinoma (VSCC) is TP53 and its prognostic value, particularly in HPV-independent VSCC, is uncertain. In other tumours, p53 immunohistochemistry (IHC) is an excellent surrogate marker for TP53 mutations. In order to study this in VSCC, we assigned six p53 IHC patterns into two final classes: 'wild-type' or 'mutant'. We determined the performance and interobserver variability of this pattern-based p53 IHC approach....

Lack of diagnostic utility of the ECG-derived ventricular gradient in patients with suspected acute pulmonary embolism.
Meijer FMM, Hendriks SV, Huisman MV, van der Hulle T, Swenne CA, Kies P, Jongbloed MRM, Egorova AD, Vliegen HW, Klok FA
Introduction: The YEARS algorithm was successfully developed to reduce the number of computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA) investigations in the diagnostic management of patients with suspected pulmonary embolism (PE), although half of patients still needed to be referred for CTPA. We hypothesized that ECG derived ventricular gradient optimized for right ventricular pressure overload (VG-RVPO), an easy to use tool for detecting PE-induced pulmonary hypertension (PH), may further impro...

Identifying Factors Influencing Decision Making in Patients Diagnosed with Carotid Body Tumors: An Exploratory Study.
Alimohamad H, Yilmaz D, Hamming JF, Schepers A
Background: Carotid body tumors (CBTs) are rare highly vascularized and slow enlarging tumors arising from the paraganglionic tissue at the carotid bifurcation. Main treatment options for CBTs are surgical resection or "wait and scan" strategy. The choice for either strategy may be equally good medically in many patients. A structured "shared decision making" (SDM) might be helpful for guiding patients. Objectives: To develop an SDM strategy for the surgical treatment, we aim...

Importance: Despite recent advances in treatment of severe aortic valve stenosis (AS), AS remains a life-threatening condition with no proven disease-modifying therapy. Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and lipoprotein(a) (Lp[a]) have been implicated in the pathobiology of AS. The proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 inhibitor evolocumab reduces circulating LDL-C concentrations by 50% to 60% and Lp(a) by 20% to 30%. Objective: To determine whether evolocumab reduces the risk o...

gplas: a comprehensive tool for plasmid analysis using short-read graphs.
Arredondo-Alonso S, Bootsma M, Hein Y, Rogers MRC, Corander J, Willems RJL, Schürch AC
Summary: Plasmids can horizontally transmit genetic traits, enabling rapid bacterial adaptation to new environments and hosts. Short-read whole-genome sequencing data are often applied to large-scale bacterial comparative genomics projects but the reconstruction of plasmids from these data is facing severe limitations, such as the inability to distinguish plasmids from each other in a bacterial genome. We developed gplas, a new approach to reliably separate plasmid contigs into discrete componen...
