Trials, Volume 25, Issue 1, 6 1 2024, Pages 303 Refraining from closed reduction of displaced distal radius fractures in the emergency department-in short: the RECORDED trial. Derksen BM, Jawahier PA, Wijers O, Knops SP, de Vries MR, van Hooff CCD, Verhofstad MHJ, Schep NWL
Background: With roughly 45,000 adult patients each year, distal radius fractures are one of the most common fractures in the emergency department. Approximately 60% of all these fractures are displaced and require surgery. The current guidelines advise to perform closed reduction of these fractures awaiting surgery, as it may lead to post-reduction pain relief and release tension of the surrounding neurovascular structures. Recent studies have shown that successful reduction does not warrant co... Abstract
The Science of the total environment, 3 1 2024, Pages 172963 Greater difference between airborne and flower pollen chemistry, then between pollen collected across a pollution gradient in the Netherlands. de Weger LA, Verbeek C, Markey E, O'Connor D, Gosling WD
The prevalence in allergic diseases has increased considerably in the past decades. An important trigger of the symptoms of allergic rhinitis (hay fever) is the pollen of wind-pollinating plants. This pollen develops in the flowers, and is released into the air where it gets exposed to environmental influences and air pollution. We investigated the chemical changes to pollen that occur after release from the flower in a rural (Veluwe) and an urban (Amsterdam) site in the Netherlands using Fourie... Abstract
Aorta (Stamford, Conn.), 2 1 2024 The Prevalence of Coronary Artery Disease in Bicuspid Aortic Valve Patients: An Overview of the Literature. Dolmaci OB, Hilhorst TL, Malekzadeh A, Mertens BJA, Klautz RJM, Poelmann RE, Grewal N
The prevalence of coronary artery disease (CAD) in bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) patients is a debatable topic. Several studies have indicated that BAV patients have a lower prevalence of CAD compared with patients with a tricuspid aortic valve (TAV), but the effects of age and gender have not always been considered. This systematic review provides an overview of articles which report on CAD in BAV and TAV patients. Searches were executed in April 2021 and January 2022 according to the PRISMA (Pre... Abstract

JACC. Cardiovascular imaging, 18 3 2024, Pages S1936-878X(24)00119-0 Mitral Annular Disjunction in the Context of Mitral Valve Prolapse: Identifying the At-Risk Patient. Van der Bijl P, Stassen J, Haugaa KH, Essayagh B, Basso C, Thiene G, Faletra FF, Edvardsen T, Enriquez-Sarano M, Nihoyannopoulos P, Ajmone Marsan N, Chandrashekhar YS, Bax JJ
Mitral annular disjunction (MAD), a separation between the left atrium/mitral valve annulus and the left ventricular myocardium, is frequently seen in patients with arrhythmic mitral valve prolapse. Although an association exists between MAD and ventricular arrhythmias, little is known regarding the identification of individuals at high risk. Multimodality imaging including echocardiography, computed tomography, cardiac magnetic resonance, and positron emission tomography can play an important r... Abstract
Netherlands heart journal : monthly journal of the Netherlands Society of Cardiology and the Netherlands Heart Foundation, Volume 32, Issue 5, 18 3 2024, Pages 190-197 Assessment of ICD eligibility in non-ischaemic cardiomyopathy patients: a position statement by the Task Force of the Dutch Society of Cardiology. van der Lingen ACJ, Verstraelen TE, van Erven L, Meeder JG, Theuns DA, Vernooy K, Wilde AAM, Maass AH, Allaart CP
International guidelines recommend implantation of an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) in non-ischaemic cardiomyopathy (NICM) patients with a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) below 35% despite optimal medical therapy and a life expectancy of more than 1 year with good functional status. We propose refinement of these recommendations in patients with NICM, with careful consideration of additional risk parameters for both arrhythmic and non-arrhythmic death. These additional p...
