Abstract

Hurler’s syndrome is a rare genetic disease characterized by progressive multiorgan accumulation of glycosaminoglycans. It is associated with progressive craniofacial, skeletal, and cardiac involvement, which increases the risk of anesthesia. Patients with Hurler’s syndrome could present as the worst airway management problem an anesthesiologist could deal with due to abnormal upper airway anatomy and limited neck manipulation, owing to the atlantoaxial instability. We report a case of difficult airway scenario of a child with Hurler’s syndrome, leading to an apparent cannot ventilate cannot intubate scenario, which was managed successfully with the help of a C-MAC video laryngoscope with unique D-blade. In Hurler’s syndrome, C-MAC with D-blade is an excellent tool in establishing an airway in a pediatric difficult airway scenario. Moreover, D-blade C-MAC could be considered as the primary tool for establishing an airway in pediatric patients with Hurler’s syndrome.

Abstract

AIMS Our aim was to report on a survey initiated by the European Association of Percutaneous Cardiovascular Interventions (EAPCI) concerning opinion on the evidence relating to dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) duration after coronary stenting. METHODS AND RESULTS Results from three randomised clinical trials were scheduled to be presented at the American Heart Association Scientific Sessions 2014 (AHA 2014). A web-based survey was distributed to all individuals registered in the EuroIntervention mailing list (n=15,200) both before and after AHA 2014. A total of 1,134 physicians responded to the first (i.e., before AHA 2014) and 542 to the second (i.e., after AHA 2014) survey. The majority of respondents interpreted trial results consistent with a substantial equipoise regarding the benefits and risks of an extended versus a standard DAPT strategy. Two respondents out of ten believed extended DAPT should be implemented in selected patients. After AHA 2014, 46.1% of participants expressed uncertainty about the available evidence on DAPT duration, and 40.0% the need for clinical guidance. CONCLUSIONS This EAPCI survey highlights considerable uncertainty within the medical community with regard to the optimal duration of DAPT after coronary stenting in the light of recent reported trial results. Updated recommendations for practising physicians to guide treatment decisions in routine clinical practice should be provided by international societies.

Abstract

Hurler’s syndrome is a rare genetic disease characterized by progressive multiorgan accumulation of glycosaminoglycans. It is associated with progressive craniofacial, skeletal, and cardiac involvement, which increases the risk of anesthesia. Patients with Hurler’s syndrome could present as the worst airway management problem an anesthesiologist could deal with due to abnormal upper airway anatomy and limited neck manipulation, owing to the atlantoaxial instability. We report a case of difficult airway scenario of a child with Hurler’s syndrome, leading to an apparent cannot ventilate cannot intubate scenario, which was managed successfully with the help of a C-MAC video laryngoscope with unique D-blade. In Hurler’s syndrome, C-MAC with D-blade is an excellent tool in establishing an airway in a pediatric difficult airway scenario. Moreover, D-blade C-MAC could be considered as the primary tool for establishing an airway in pediatric patients with Hurler’s syndrome. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Aims: Our aim was to report on a survey initiated by the European Association of Percutaneous Cardiovascular Interventions (EAPCI) concerning opinion on the evidence relating to dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) duration after coronary stenting. Methods and results: Results from three randomised clinical trials were scheduled to be presented at the American Heart Association Scientific Sessions 2014 (AHA 2014). A web-based survey was distributed to all individuals registered in the EuroIntervention mailing list (n=15,200) both before and after AHA 2014. A total of 1,134 physicians responded to the first (i.e., before AHA 2014) and 542 to the second (i.e., after AHA 2014) survey. The majority of respondents interpreted trial results consistent with a substantial equipoise regarding the benefits and risks of an extended versus a standard DAPT strategy. Two respondents out of ten believed extended DAPT should be implemented in selected patients. After AHA 2014, 46.1% of participants expressed uncertainty about the available evidence on DAPT duration, and 40.0% the need for clinical guidance. Conclusions: This EAPCI survey highlights considerable uncertainty within the medical community with regard to the optimal duration of DAPT after coronary stenting in the light of recent reported trial results. Updated recommendations for practising physicians to guide treatment decisions in routine clinical practice should be provided by international societies.

Abstract

The apolipoprotein E (APOE) epsilon4 allele is the best established genetic risk factor for late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD). We conducted genome-wide surveys of 502,627 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) to characterize and confirm other LOAD susceptibility genes. In epsilon4 carriers from neuropathologically verified discovery, neuropathologically verified replication, and clinically characterized replication cohorts of 1411 cases and controls, LOAD was associated with six SNPs from the GRB-associated binding protein 2 (GAB2) gene and a common haplotype encompassing the entire GAB2 gene. SNP rs2373115 (p = 9 x 10(-11)) was associated with an odds ratio of 4.06 (confidence interval 2.81-14.69), which interacts with APOE epsilon4 to further modify risk. GAB2 was overexpressed in pathologically vulnerable neurons; the Gab2 protein was detected in neurons, tangle-bearing neurons, and dystrophic neuritis; and interference with GAB2 gene expression increased tau phosphorylation. Our findings suggest that GAB2 modifies LOAD risk in APOE epsilon4 carriers and influences Alzheimer's neuropathology.

Abstract

English: The Sesotho community has proved an avid religious (Christian) audience for more than a century. Two Sesotho translations of the Bible, the Old Translation of 1909 and the New Translation of 1989, are used by Sesotho-speaking people. The former seems to be complex and difficult to its users (both those who can and those who cannot read the written text) due to the following reasons: (i) its adherence to a word-for-word philosophy of translation (reflecting the Biblical Hebrew structure in Sesotho in terms of lexical items for the Lord, such as Jehova (1909) which is Hebrew instead of Morena (1989), and (ii) features of colonial interference during the translation of the Bible (e.g. the use of the Afrikaans loanword teronkong instead of the indigenous Sesotho word tjhankaneng for 'prison'). The primary concern of the later version is meaning and readability, but it was not well accepted by much of its prospective readership. Others would say the translation was much easier to read, and therefore had lost its authenticity. Both translations lean heavily on the reader's ability to understand a written text. They constitute a very serious problem in a religious community made up of members not able to read the written text. This was proven by a preliminary study of illiteracy which was undertaken by the researcher in Bloemfontein's Sesotho-speaking congregations in 2007. The study indicated that 11% of the church members cannot read or write; this figure would presumably be higher in the rural communities. One must also take notice of the fact that in the remaining 89% of religious communities there are Bible readers who still find it difficult to master the content of the Bible due to the complexity of the vocabulary and language structure of the text when read aloud. This means a Bible translation adapted to the needs of the specific target audience is needed. The problem that was investigated for this thesis was: How can the Bible be translated to fulfill th, Afrikaans: Die Sesotho gemeenskap het hulself as 'n ware Christen religieuse gehoor oor 'n tydperk van honderdjaar bewys. Die Sesothogemeenskap gebruik twee Sesotho Bybelvertalings naamlik die Ou Sesotho Vertaling van 1909 en die Nuwe Sesotho Vertaling van 1989. Die eerste vertaling (1909) blyk of dit moeilik verstaanbaar is vir sy gebruikers (beide die wat die geskrewe teks kan lees en die wat dit nie kan lees nie) vanweë die volgende redes: (i) Dit steun op 'n word-vir-woord vertaalfilosofie (die reflektering van die Bybelhebreeuse stuktuur in Sesotho in terme van die leksikale terme vir Here soos byvoorbeeld Jehova (1909) - in Hebreeus in plaas van Morena (1989), en (ii) elemente van koloniale intervensie gedurende die vertaling van die Bybel (bv. die gebruik van die Afrikaanse leenwoord teronkong in plaas van die inheemse Sesothowoord tjhankaneng vir gevangenis/tronk). Die primêre probleem met die latere uitgawe is betekenis asook leesbaarheid. Hierdie vertaling is nie goed ontvang deur sy voornemende lesers nie. Ander meen dat hierdie vertaling heel makliker lees en daarvoor sy outensiteit verloor het. Beide vertalings leen sterk op die leser se vermoë om die geskrewe teks te verstaan. Dit konstitueer 'n baie ernstige probleem in 'n religieuse gemeenskap bestaande uit lede wat nie die geskrewe teks kan lees nie. Dit word bewys deur 'n prelimenêre studie van geletterdheid in gemeentes van Bloemfontein in 2007. Hierdie studie, opgestel deur die navorser, toon dat 11% van die lidmate van die kerk nie kan lees of skryf nie. Daar word verder gemeen dat die situasie veel groter is in die plattelandse gemeenskappe. Daar moet verder gelet word op die feit dat die oorblywende 89% van die lidmate van die kerk Bybellesers is wat dit steeds moeilik vind om die inhoud van die Bybel te bemeester vanweë die kompleksiteit van die terminologie en taalstruktuur van die teks wanneer dit hardop gelees word. Dit beteken dat 'n Bybelvertaling gerig op die behoeftes van 'n spesifieke, Sesotho: Setjhaba sa Basotho se netefaditse Bokreste ba bona ka dilemo tse fetang lekgolo.

Abstract

One of the complications of carotid artery stenting (CAS) is iatrogenic vasospasm caused by mechanical irritation of the blood vessel lumen by a guidewire, catheter, stent retriever, or distal protection devices. Although often self-limiting, the mechanical vasospasm can cause reduction in the cerebral blood flow and result in catastrophic ischemia, especially when undetected and persistent. Real-time cerebral oximetry with near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) could detect episodes of cerebral hypoxemia due to vasospasm and facilitate intervention for prevention of hypoxic brain injury during neuro-intervention procedures such as CAS. We present a case scenario where NIRS detected iatrogenic vasospasm even before the conventional tests could identify the event during CAS.

Abstract

Background & Objectives: The comparative prognostic value of C-reactive protein (CRP) and fibrinogen for cardiovascular events has been inconclusively investigated. t0 his study was carried out to compare the prognostic value of CRP versus fibrinogen in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD)., Methods: The study included 13,100 patients with coronary angiography-confirmed CAD. Plasma CRP and fibrinogen levels were measured before angiography in all patients. The levels of CRP>3 mg/l and fibrinogen>350 mg/dl were considered as elevated. The primary outcome was 1-year all-cause mortality., Results: Patients were divided into four groups: patients with CRP≤3 mg/l and fibrinogen ≤350 mg/dl (n=4206); patients with CRP≤3 mg/l and fibrinogen >350 mg/dl (n=3132); patients with CRP>3 mg/l and fibrinogen ≤ 350 mg/dl (n=1273) and CRP >3 mg/l and patients with fibrinogen >350 mg/dl (n=4489). There were 634 deaths: 75 deaths in patients with CRP ≤3 mg/l and fibrinogen ≤350 mg/dl, 91 deaths in patients with CRP ≤3 mg/l and fibrinogen >350 mg/dl, 87 deaths in patients with CRP >3 mg/l and fibrinogen ≤350 mg/dl and 381 deaths in patients with CRP >3 mg/l and fibrinogen >350 mg/dl (Kaplan-Meier estimates of all-cause mortality, 1.8, 3.0, 7.0 and 8.7 %, log-rank test P<0.001). The multivariate analysis showed that CRP [adjusted hazard ratio (HR)=1.31, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.18-1.45, for each standard deviation increase in the logarithmic scale] but not fibrinogen [adjusted HR=0.99 (0.90-1.09), for each standard deviation increase in the logarithmic scale] was an independent correlate of mortality., Interpretation & Conclusions: The findings indicated that in patients with CAD, CRP was a better predictor of mortality than fibrinogen and offered prognostic information beyond that provided by the conventional cardiovascular risk factors.

Abstract

Objectives: The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of no-reflow phenomenon on 5-year mortality among patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) treated by primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). This impact was also assessed in relation to infarct size., Background: The impact of no-reflow on long-term mortality in patients with STEMI has been insufficiently studied., Methods: This study included 1,406 patients with STEMI treated by primary PCI. No-reflow was diagnosed using angiographic criteria. Infarct size was measured with single-photon emission computed tomography imaging 7 to 14 days after the acute event. The primary outcome was 5-year mortality., Results: The no-reflow phenomenon was diagnosed in 410 patients (29%). Infarct size was 15.0% (6.0% to 29.0%) of the left ventricle in the no-reflow group versus 8.0% (2.0% to 21.0%) of the left ventricle in the reflow group (p < 0.001). There were 132 deaths during follow-up. Of them, 59 deaths occurred among patients with no-reflow and 73 deaths occurred among patients with reflow (Kaplan-Meier estimates of 5-year mortality 18.2% and 9.5%, respectively; odds ratio: 2.02; 95% confidence interval: 1.44 to 2.82; p < 0.001). The Cox proportional hazards model adjusting for infarct size among other variables identified the no-reflow phenomenon as an independent correlate of 5-year mortality (hazard ratio: 1.66; 95% confidence interval: 1.17 to 2.36; p = 0.004)., Conclusions: In patients with STEMI treated by primary PCI, no-reflow phenomenon is a strong predictor of 5-year mortality. No-reflow phenomenon after PCI provides prognostic information that is independent of and beyond that provided by infarct size., (Copyright (c) 2010 American College of Cardiology Foundation.

Abstract

Background: The investigation of no-reflow phenomenon after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with acute ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction has therapeutic implications. We investigated the predictive factors, persistence in time, and impact of no reflow on myocardial salvage, ventricular function, and mortality., Methods and Results: The study included 1140 patients with ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction undergoing primary PCI and paired scintigraphic examinations (before intervention and 7 to 14 days thereafter). After primary PCI, 108 patients had no reflow and 1032 patients had normal coronary flow. The median salvage index was 0.34 (interquartile range, 0.15, 0.49) in patients with no reflow versus 0.55 (interquartile range, 0.29, 0.81) in patients with normal flow (P<0.001). Left ventricular ejection fraction at 6 months after PCI was 47.7+/-13.1% in the no-reflow group versus 54.2+/-13.9% in the group with normal flow after PCI (P<0.001). In 80.3% of patients with no reflow, normalization of blood flow >6 months after PCI occurred and correlated with improvement in the left ventricular ejection fraction. Independent predictors of no reflow were residual flow in the infarct-related artery (P<0.001), initial perfusion defect (P=0.03), C-reactive protein (P<0.001), and previous myocardial infarction (P=0.013). Kaplan-Meier estimates of 1-year mortality were 16.7% (n=18) in patients with no reflow versus 5.5% (n=56) in patients with normal flow (hazard ratio, 3.35; 95% CI, 1.97 to 5.69; P<0.001)., Conclusions: No reflow after primary PCI was associated with reduced myocardial salvage, larger infarct size, worse left ventricular ejection fraction at 6 months, and increased risk of 1-year mortality. In 4 of 5 patients with no reflow after PCI, restoration of normal flow occurred 6 months after reperfusion.

Abstract

For late onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD), the only confirmed, genetic association is with the apolipoprotein E (APOE) locus on chromosome 19. Meta-analysis is often employed to sort the true associations from the false positives. LOAD research has the advantage of a continuously updated meta-analysis of candidate gene association studies in the web-based AlzGene database. The top 30 AlzGene loci on May 1(st), 2007 were investigated in our whole genome association data set consisting of 1411 LOAD cases and neuropathoiogicaiiy verified controls genotyped at 312,316 SNPs using the Affymetrix 500K Mapping Platform. Of the 30 "top AlzGenes", 32 SNPs in 24 genes had odds ratios (OR) whose 95% confidence intervals that did not include 1. Of these 32 SNPs, six were part of the Affymetrix 500K Mapping panel and another ten had proxies on the Affymetrix array that had >80% power to detect an association with α=0.001. Two of these 16 SNPs showed significant association with LOAD in our sample series. One was rs4420638 at the APOE locus (uncorrected p-value=4.58E-37) and the other was rs4293, located in the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) locus (uncorrected p-value=0.014). Since this result was nominally significant, but did not survive multiple testing correction for 16 independent tests, this association at rs4293 was verified in a geographically distinct German cohort (p-value=0.03). We present the results of our ACE replication aiongwith a discussion of the statistical limitations of multiple test corrections in whole genome studies.

Abstract

Objectives: The aim of the study was to assess the relationship between baseline and post-procedural Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) epicardial blood flow grade and mortality in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) who were treated with early percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)., Background: The impact of baseline and post-procedural TIMI flow grade on mortality in patients with ACS has been insufficiently studied., Methods: This prospective registry included 10,455 patients with ACS who underwent coronary angiography and PCI: 2,853 patients with ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction, 3,060 patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction, and 4,542 patients with unstable angina. The primary outcome was 1-year mortality., Results: At 1 year, there were 976 deaths: 117 deaths among patients with TIMI flow grade 0 to 1, 105 deaths among patients with TIMI flow grade 2, and 754 deaths among patients with TIMI flow grade 3 (Kaplan-Meier estimates of mortality 28.3%, 18.4%, and 8.0%, respectively; odds ratio: 1.66, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.57 to 1.76, p < 0.001, for TIMI flow grade 0 to 1 vs. TIMI flow grade 2 and odds ratio: 2.51, 95% CI: 2.06 to 3.06, p < 0.001, for TIMI flow grade 2 vs. TIMI flow grade 3). By using the Cox proportional hazards survival model, we identified post-PCI TIMI flow grade (hazard ratio: 0.60, 95% CI: 0.52 to 0.70; p < 0.001, for 1 grade increase in TIMI flow grade) but not baseline TIMI grade (hazard ratio: 1.08, 95% CI: 0.96 to 1.22; p = 0.20, for 1 grade increase in TIMI flow grade) as an independent correlate of 1-year mortality., Conclusions: In patients with ACS treated with early PCI, post-procedural TIMI flow grade but not baseline TIMI flow grade is an independent correlate of 1-year mortality.

Abstract

The apolipoprotein E (APOE) epsilon4 allele is the best established genetic risk factor for late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD). We conducted genome-wide surveys of 502,627 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) to characterize and confirm other LOAD susceptibility genes. In epsilon4 carriers from neuropathologically verified discovery, neuropathologically verified replication, and clinically characterized replication cohorts of 1411 cases and controls, LOAD was associated with six SNPs from the GRB-associated binding protein 2 (GAB2) gene and a common haplotype encompassing the entire GAB2 gene. SNP rs2373115 (p = 9 x 10(-11)) was associated with an odds ratio of 4.06 (confidence interval 2.81-14.69), which interacts with APOE epsilon4 to further modify risk. GAB2 was overexpressed in pathologically vulnerable neurons; the Gab2 protein was detected in neurons, tangle-bearing neurons, and dystrophic neuritis; and interference with GAB2 gene expression increased tau phosphorylation. Our findings suggest that GAB2 modifies LOAD risk in APOE epsilon4 carriers and influences Alzheimer's neuropathology.

Abstract

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of circulating levels of oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) on nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kB) activation in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) of patients with unstable angina (UA) or stable angina (SA) and control subjects., Background: Nuclear factor-kB might be involved in atherosclerosis, as is suggested by the presence of activated NF-kB in human atherosclerotic lesions., Methods: Levels of plasma ox-LDL and circulating NF-kB in PBMC (and in separated lymphocytes and monocytes) were measured in 27 control subjects and 29 SA and 27 UA patients. In in vitro studies, the effect of ox-LDL and of the sera derived from a subgroup of UA patients and control subjects on monocytic NF-kB activation was also evaluated., Results: The UA and SA patients had higher levels of circulating ox-LDL and NF-kB in PBMC than control subjects (p < 0.001). The increase in circulating NF-kB was mainly due to the activation of monocytes. In the in vitro studies, ox-LDL dose-dependently increased the activation of NF-kB in monocytes, but not in lymphocytes derived from healthy volunteers. This increase was related to the expression of lectin-like ox-LDL receptor-1 on monocytes. The incubation of monocytes with the sera derived from the UA patients induced a significant increase in NF-kB activation compared with the sera derived from the control subjects., Conclusions: The data suggest that the activation of NF-kB in monocytes of UA patients is, at least in part, induced by circulating molecules such as ox-LDL, which has been found to be particularly elevated in UA patients.
