Separable mixing: The general formulation and a particular example focusing on mask efficiency.
Bootsma MCJ, Chan KMD, Diekmann O, Inaba H
The aim of this short note is twofold. First, we formulate the general Kermack-McKendrick epidemic model incorporating static heterogeneity and show how it simplifies to a scalar Renewal Equation (RE) when separable mixing is assumed. A key general feature is that all information about the heterogeneity is encoded in one nonlinear real valued function of a real variable. Next, we specialize the model ingredients so that we can study the efficiency of mask wearing as a non-pharmaceutical interven...

Diagnostic Accuracy of SARS-CoV-2 Rapid Antigen Testing in a Pediatric Population: Children are Not Little Adults.
Karadag-Oncel E, Tasar S, Sahin A, Togay A, Elvan-Tuz A, Cay H, Sen-Tas S, Yilmaz N, Kara-Aksay A, Yilmaz D
Background: Information on the use of antigen-based SARS-CoV-2 rapid antigen tests (RAT) in children is limited. RATs have been used more frequently, because they are easily applicable, inexpensive, and can be easily performed at home without the need for special equipment. This study was designed to assign the diagnostic test accuracy of the SARS-CoV-2 RAT in daily clinical practice in children. Methods: One thousand forty-two pediatric patients (aged 1 month - 18 years) who presented to the pe...

The impact of annuloplasty ring or band implantation on post-repair mitral valve haemodynamic performance.
Tomšič A, Sandoval E, Meucci MC, Nabeta T, Castella M, Muro A, Klautz RJM, Ajmone Marsan N, Pereda D, Palmen M
Objectives: The clinical importance of optimal post-repair mitral valve diastolic performance is increasingly being recognized. The haemodynamic effect of a partial annuloplasty band implantation, in comparison to a full ring, remains insufficiently explored. Methods: Patients undergoing mitral valve repair for pure degenerative disease between 2011 and 2019 at 2 experienced heart valve centres were eligible for inclusion. Exclusion criteria were concomitant procedures other than tricuspid valve...

Epicardial adipose tissue in patients with systemic sclerosis.
Wang X, Butcher SC, Myagmardorj R, Liem SIE, Delgado V, Bax JJ, De Vries-Bouwstra JK, Marsan NA
Aims: Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) has emerged as a mediator between systemic inflammatory disorders and cardiovascular disease, and may therefore play a role in the pathophysiology of cardiac involvement in systemic sclerosis (SSc). The aim of this study was to assess the correlation between EAT and left ventricular (LV) function, and to determine the prognostic value of EAT in patients with SSc. Methods and results: Consecutive patients with SSc who underwent non-contrast thorax computed to...

From root to shoot: quantifying nematode tolerance in Arabidopsis thaliana by high-throughput phenotyping of plant development.
Willig JJ, Sonneveld D, van Steenbrugge JJM, Deurhof L, van Schaik CC, Teklu MG, Goverse A, Lozano-Torres JL, Smant G, Sterken MG
Nematode migration, feeding site formation, withdrawal of plant assimilates, and activation of plant defence responses have a significant impact on plant growth and development. Plants display intraspecific variation in tolerance limits for root-feeding nematodes. Although disease tolerance has been recognized as a distinct trait in biotic interactions of mainly crops, we lack mechanistic insights. Progress is hampered by difficulties in quantification and laborious screening methods. We turned...

In this study, we examined the relationship betweenerrors of commissionon theSustained Attention to Response Task(SART)andscores on the Cognitive Failures Questionnaire (CFQ). The goal was to assess theecological validity of the SARTin a sample of people scoring high on fatigue complaints.SART errors of commission were positively associated with CFQ scores and this finding remained after controlling for fatigue level, age, and SART reaction times.Thus, our results generally supported the ecologi...

Thromboembolic and bleeding complications during interruptions and after discontinuation of anticoagulant treatment in patients with atrial fibrillation and active cancer: A daily practice evaluation.
Chu G, Seelig J, Cannegieter SC, Gelderblom H, Hovens MMC, Huisman MV, van der Hulle T, Trines SA, Vlot AJ, Versteeg HH, Hemels M, Klok FA
Background and aims: Cancer provides challenges to the continuity of anticoagulant treatment in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), e.g. through cancer-related surgery or complications. We aimed to provide data on the incidence and reasons for interrupting and discontinuing anticoagulant treatment in AF patients with cancer and to assess its contribution to the risk of thromboembolism (TE) and major bleeding (MB). Methods: This retrospective study identified AF patients with cancer in two ho...

Prognostic Factors for Long-term Aesthetic Outcome of Infantile Haemangioma Treated with Beta-blockers.
Hermans MM, Pasmans SGMA, De Graaf M, Ragamin A, Mendels EJ, Breur JMPJ, Langeveld HR, Raphael MF, De Laat PCJ, De Wildt SN, Rietman AB, Breugem CC, Schappin R
Parents of infants treated with beta-blockers for infantile haemangioma are often concerned about the long-term aesthetic outcome. This cross-sectional study assessed the influence on the long-term aesthetic outcome of characteristics of the infantile haemangioma, the beta-blocker treatment, and the infant. The study included 103 children aged 6-12 years, treated with beta-blockers (propranolol or atenolol) for infantile haemangioma during infancy (age at treatment initiation ≤1 year) for ≥6 mon...

One-Year Mortality in Patients Undergoing an Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator or Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Pulse Generator Replacement: Identifying Patients at Risk.
Feijen M, Egorova AD, Kuijken T, Bootsma M, Schalij MJ, van Erven L
Implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) significantly contribute to the prevention of sudden cardiac death in selected patients. However, it is essential to identify those who are likely to not have benefit from an ICD and to defer a pulse generator exchange. Easily implementable guidelines for individual risk stratification and decision making are lacking. This study investigates the 1-year mortality of patients who underwent an ICD or cardiac resynchronization therapy with defibrillator...

Effects of standardized language on remote ultrasound-guided percutaneous nephrolithotomy training: A mixed-methods explorative pilot study.
Denisov D, Castro-Olmo C, Charondo LB, Yang H, Van Schaik S, Bayne D
Background: Remote teaching of procedural skills has demonstrated equivalence in knowledge acquisition compared to in-person teaching. Variations in terminology for probe and needle movements may serve as a barrier in remote training of ultrasound (US)-guided renal access for percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). This pilot study investigated the utility of standardized terminology in remote training of US-guided renal access for PCNL. Hypothesis: Standardization of verbal terminology to describe...

Diagnostic potential of plasma biomarkers and exhaled volatile organic compounds in predicting the different stages of acute mesenteric ischaemia: protocol for a multicentre prospective observational study (TACTIC study).
Duivenvoorden AAM, Clarysse M, Ceulemans LJ, Geelkerken RH, Derikx JPM, de Vries JPM, Buscher HCJL, Olde Damink SWM, van Schooten FJ, Lubbers T, Lenaerts K, Dutch Mesenteric Ischemia Study group (DMIS)
Introduction: Acute mesenteric ischaemia (AMI) is a life-threatening condition with short-term mortality of up to 80%. The diagnosis of AMI has remained troublesome due to the non-specific clinical presentation, symptoms and laboratory findings. Early unambiguous diagnosis of AMI is critical to prevent progression from reversible to irreversible transmural intestinal damage, thereby decreasing morbidity and improving survival. The present study aims to validate a panel of plasma biomarkers and i...

Relating Lipoprotein(a) Concentrations to Cardiovascular Event Risk After Acute Coronary Syndrome: A Comparison of 3 Tests.
Szarek M, Reijnders E, Jukema JW, Bhatt DL, Bittner VA, Diaz R, Fazio S, Garon G, Goodman SG, Harrington RA, Ruhaak LR, Schwertfeger M, Tsimikas S, White HD, Steg PG, Cobbaert C, Schwartz GG, ODYSSEY OUTCOMES Investigators
Background: Lipoprotein(a) is a risk factor for cardiovascular events and modifies the benefit of PCSK9 (proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9) inhibitors. Lipoprotein(a) concentration can be measured with immunoassays reporting mass or molar concentration or a reference measurement system using mass spectrometry. Whether the relationships between lipoprotein(a) concentrations and cardiovascular events in a high-risk cohort differ across lipoprotein(a) methods is unknown. We compared the...
