A Novel Size-Exclusion Chromatography Method for Subunit-Level Identification and Relative Quantification of Faba Bean Proteins
With increasing interest in faba bean as a plant-based protein crop, reliable methods to characterize protein composition are crucial for understanding structural and functional properties of faba bean-based raw materials and ingredients. A novel method combining size-exclusion high-performance liquid chromatography (SE-HPLC) with peak deconvolution was developed to separate and relatively quantify 7S and 11S globulins and other faba bean proteins at their monomer/subunit level.

Excess cardiovascular risk associated with community-acquired lower respiratory tract infections: a population-based nested self-controlled case-series
Background Lower respiratory tract infections (LRTI) are common and can trigger acute cardiovascular events. Previous studies focussing on this association only reported relative effect measures, leaving the population impact largely unknown. Methods This population-based study was based on routine health care data of the Julius General Practitioners’ Network in the Netherlands and included patients aged ≥40 years presenting with an LRTI to general practice between 2016–2019.
Is surgery for multiple myeloma-related spinal involvement associated with higher blood loss compared to spinal metastases? - European Spine Journal
Abstract Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematologic malignancy often presenting with diffuse osteolysis of bone in the vertebral column. So far, little is known about the risk of perioperative blood loss in spinal surgery, as MM-related spinal lesions are often grouped with spinal metastases (SPMs). A more definitive understanding of bleeding risks for myeloma specifically will improve surgical planning and treatment.

Preferences and challenges regarding medical decision-making among patients with a migration background in Belgium: a focus group study - Archives of Public Health
An overview of the study participants’ characteristics can be found in Table 1. Asking participants about their experiences with MDM, it became clear that preferences and challenges revolved around four key components of MDM.
Detection of large areas of thin-cap fibroatheroma in a recurrent STEMI patient using a novel artificial intelligence algorithm: moving from 2D to 3D
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a valuable imaging tool in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), recommended for stent guidance and evaluation.1 Moreover, OCT-imaging can visualize high-risk plaques, such as thin-cap fibroatheroma (TCFA), which have prognostic value.2,3 However, manual OCT-interpretation is time-consuming, subject to interobserver variability4 and, most importantly, assesses TCFA in a two-dimensional, single-frame manner.
influence of sympathetic triggering by handgrip exercise on coronary vasoreactivity and complaints in patients with angina and non-obstructive coronary arteries: a proof-of-concept study | European Journal of Preventive Cardiology | Oxford Academic
Coronary vasomotor dysfunction (CVDys) is increasingly recognized as an explanation of anginal complaints in patients without obstructive coronary artery disease (ANOCA),1 It includes vasospastic disease and/or coronary microvascular dysfunction. Diagnostic tests to assess CVDys are more frequently used in clinical practice,2,3 However, the understanding of pathophysiological and possible therapeutic mechanisms remains limited.
Prognostic value of microvascular resistance reserve after percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with myocardial infarction
Eerdekens, R. et al. (2024) Prognostic value of microvascular resistance reserve after percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with myocardial infarction. Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 83(21), pp. 2066-2076. (doi: 10.1016/j.jacc.2024.02.052) (PMID:38752897) Full text not currently available from Enlighten.
Dissection-like appearance of focal catheter-induced vasospasm in intracoronary optical coherence tomography
Intracoronary optical coherence tomography (OCT) enables high-resolution cross-sectional imaging of the coronary lumen and vascular wall. Accurate interpretation of OCT images is pivotal in the decision-making process and, among others, requires an adequate understanding of potential image artefacts.
Percutaneous coronary intervention in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation: a systematic review and meta-analysis - Netherlands Heart Journal
Systematic search The systematic search yielded 1640 studies. A total of 14 studies—13 observational studies and 1 randomised controlled trial (RCT)—were included in this meta-analysis (see Figure S1 in Electronic Supplementary Material), with a total of 3838 patients [8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21]. Importantly, different definitions for significant CAD were used, with cut-off values for significant lesions ranging from 50% to 75% obstruction in a major coronary artery.
Five critical quality criteria for artificial intelligence-based prediction models
As global cardiovascular disease burden is ever increasing, artificial intelligence (AI) holds great promise in reducing this burden through, among other ways, assisting in disease prevention by detection of at-risk individuals, offering more timely diagnoses and prognostication in patients, and reducing healthcare costs by automation of some of the tasks that were previously done by human experts.1 Analytical AI techniques, such as neural networks and tree-based learning approaches, can...
Less concern about missing NSTEMIs, more prospective randomized controlled trials warranted
This commentary refers to ‘Rule-out of non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome by a single, pre-hospital troponin measurement: a randomised trial’, by C. Camaro, et al., https://doi.org/10.1093/eurheartj/ehad056 and the discussion piece ‘Concern regarding missed non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarctions when applying a single, pre-hospital cardiac troponin measurement’, by J.
A rare electrocardiographic sign of acute inferior myocardial infarction - Netherlands Heart Journal
A 62-year-old man attended our emergency department with acute chest pain. The electrocardiogram (ECG) showed 2 mm ST-segment depression at the J point with tall, peaked T‑waves in inferior leads, 2 mm ST elevation in aVR and reciprocal depressions in leads I and aVL (Fig. 1a). These features resemble ‘de Winter pattern’ ECG abnormalities: upsloping ST-segment depression at the J point in leads V1–V6 with tall, positive and symmetrical T waves.

Monkeypox Virus Cross-Neutralizing Antibodies in Clinical Trial Participants Vaccinated With Modified Vaccinia Virus Ankara Encoding Middle East Respiratory Syndrome-Coronavirus Spike Protein | The Journal of Infectious Diseases | Oxford Academic
Monkeypox virus (MPXV), an orthopoxvirus first recognized to cause a zoonotic infection in 1970 [1], is endemic in Central and West Africa, with sporadic small outbreaks in nonendemic regions introduced by travel. However, since May 2022, numerous cases and local transmission has been identified in Europe and the Americas. Vaccinia virus (VACV) was used to immunize against smallpox (caused by variola virus), eventually leading to the eradication of this disease in 1980.
