Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA-4) gene, an inhibitor of T-cell priming, are associated with auto and alloimmunity. Studies implied a role for these SNPs as surrogate markers for immunotherapy-outcome in patients with melanoma. However, no predictive SNPs are defined to date. We analyzed different CTLA-4 SNPs in a large multicenter cohort of patients with ipilimumab-treated melanoma and investigated possible correlations with treatm...

Yılmaz D, Sabatini GP, Kahveci Ç, Yoon HI, Yilmaz B, Yilmaz B, Çakmak G, Dönmez MB
Purpose: To evaluate the effect of material thickness and coffee thermocycling on the optical properties of definitive resin-based materials created via additive manufacturing (AM) and subtractive manufacturing (SM). Materials and methods: Specimens were prepared in three thicknesses (1, 1.5, and 2 mm) from three AM (3D-CB, 3D-TH, and 3D-CT) and two SM (G-CAM and VE) resin-based materials (n = 15 per material and thickness combination). Color coordinates of each specimen were measured after poli...

Area-weighted unipolar voltage to predict heart failure outcomes in patients with ischaemic cardiomyopathy and ventricular tachycardia.
Rademaker R, Kimura Y, de Riva Silva M, Beukers HC, Piers SRD, Wijnmaalen AP, Dekkers OM, Zeppenfeld K
Aims: Patients with ischaemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) referred for catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia (VT) are at risk for end-stage heart failure (HF) due to adverse remodelling. Local unipolar voltages (UV) decrease with loss of viable myocardium. A UV parameter reflecting global viable myocardium may predict prognosis. We evaluate if a newly proposed parameter, area-weighted unipolar voltage (awUV), can predict HF-related outcomes [HFO; HF death/left ventricular (LV) assist device/hear...

The Potential of the HeartLogic<sup>TM</sup> Algorithm in Patients with a Left Ventricular Assist Device, an Initial Report.
Feijen M, Egorova AD, Tops LF, Palmen M, Jukema JW, Schalij MJ, Beeres SLMA
Background: Survival and quality-of-life of left ventricular assist device (LVAD) recipients improved significantly because of growing experience and technological advances. However, LVAD-related complication rates, including recurrent episodes of congestion, remain high. Early detection of fluid retention to provide a time-window for medical intervention is the pillar in preventing hospitalizations. The multisensory HeartLogicTM algorithm accurately detected impending congestion in ambulant hea...

Imaging findings inconsistent with those expected at specific chronological age ranges may serve as early indicators of neurological disorders and increased mortality risk. Estimation of chronological age, and deviations from expected results, from structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data has become an important proxy task for developing biomarkers that are sensitive to such deviations. Complementary to structural analysis, diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) has proven effective in identifyi...

Characterizing Low-cost Registration for Photographic Images to Computed Tomography.
Kim ME, Lee HH, Ramadass K, Gao C, Van Schaik K, Tkaczyk E, Spraggins J, Moyer DC, Landman BA
Mapping information from photographic images to volumetric medical imaging scans is essential for linking spaces with physical environments, such as in image-guided surgery. Current methods of accurate photographic image to computed tomography (CT) image mapping can be computationally intensive and/or require specialized hardware. For general purpose 3-D mapping of bulk specimens in histological processing, a cost-effective solution is necessary. Here, we compare the integration of a commercial...

To date only a fraction of the genetic footprint of thyroid function has been clarified. We report a genome-wide association study meta-analysis of thyroid function in up to 271,040 individuals of European ancestry, including reference range thyrotropin (TSH), free thyroxine (FT4), free and total triiodothyronine (T3), proxies for metabolism (T3/FT4 ratio) as well as dichotomized high and low TSH levels. We revealed 259 independent significant associations for TSH (61% novel), 85 for FT4 (67% no...

Background: Mesenteric artery stenting with a bare-metal stent is the current treatment for atherosclerotic chronic mesenteric ischaemia. Long-term patency of bare-metal stents is unsatisfactory due to in-stent intimal hyperplasia. Use of covered stents might improve long-term patency. We aimed to compare the patency of covered stents and bare-metal stents in patients with chronic mesenteric ischaemia. Methods: We conducted a multicentre, patient-blinded and investigator-blinded, randomised cont...
