Relational analyses of the connectome
Authors:   , de Lange Siemon Christiaan
Published: May 2024

The brain can be understood as a complex network with interconnected brain regions linked by white matter pathways on the macroscale. In this thesis, we explored the connectivity between these regions and its disruption in brain disorders. By employing a relational approach that examines interactions and relationships across different scales, modalities, and domains, we aimed to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the brain.

Our findings highlight a common pattern of disconnectivity across neurological and psychiatric disorders, showing that connections central in the network architecture are particularly vulnerable to disruptions. In an in-depth examination of insomnia, depression, and anxiety disorders, we identified multimodal brain correlates associated with symptoms of these conditions. We distinguished between common and unique associations of brain structure and function with the severity of symptoms characteristic of each disorder, providing insights into both shared and specific brain circuits.

Additionally, this thesis contributes to the development and application of tools for reconstructing and analyzing brain networks. We introduced the CATO toolbox, an open-source software tool for structural and functional connectivity reconstruction. We also proposed the normalized Laplacian eigenvalue spectrum as a method for comparing neuronal networks across species and assessing differences in connectome organization.

Overall, the research presented contributes to our methodologies for reconstructing and analyzing brain networks and provides insights into the organization of neuronal networks and the disruptions in network organization in brain disorders.
On the TRAIL of a killer: mechanisms of action of an allogeneic NK cell therapy
Authors:   , van Vliet Amanda Antoinette
Published: May 2024

Natural killer (NK) cell therapy is becoming more and more attractive as a
treatment option for various types of cancer due to its high safety profile and
proven clinical efficacy. Currently, different sources (e.g. peripheral blood
NK (PBNK), umbilical cord blood NK (UCB-NK), hematopoietic stem cells
(HSCs), cell lines, induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs)) and different culture
strategies (e.g. feeder cell-based, cytokines) are being investigated to attain
optimal expansion, genetic manipulation and high functionality. It is worth
mentioning that the choice of source or culture method can significantly impact
the efficacy and characteristics of a cell product. In addition, depending on
the starting source, the manufacturing workflow requires different process
pipelines. Glycostem has established a platform for a good manufacturing
practice (GMP) grade off-the-shelf cryopreserved NK cell product using CD34+
HSCs from UCB. The NK cell product GTA002 is currently tested in a phase
I/IIa clinical trial in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). To further
improve the product and extend its therapeutical applications, a comprehensive
understanding of its characteristics and mechanisms of action is crucial, which
is addressed in this thesis from various perspectives. In various solid indications,
the activation mechanisms of GTA002 were investigated (Chapter 3-4),
characteristics of NK cell batches with high cytotoxic potential were identified
(Chapter 4), the synergy of combination therapy was explored (Chapter 5), and
the immunomodulatory role of GTA002 was studied (Chapter 6-7).

Authors: Barišić Roko , Barac Boris , Šegota Ritoša Doris , Katić Zvonimir , Karić Maja
Published: May 2024

Aim: Atrial fibrillation is just one of many arrhythmias that affects the cardiac rhythm and the heart as a pump which consequently increases the chance of an embolic insult. Due to the electric stimuli that originate from pulmonary vein ostia and their lumen, an isolation procedure is initiated, mostly by cryoablation. The main goals of this study were to investigate the relationship between measured nadir temperatures during cryoablation of each individual pulmonary vein and to compare the success of first-time cryoablation between left and right pulmonary veins. Participants and methods: The study involved 40 participants who underwent pulmonary vein isolation by cryoablation due to paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, irrespective of gender and age. The procedures were carried out throughout the year 2022 at the University Hospital Centre Zagreb, where the data were collected. All necessary patient data were permanently recorded and saved in a separate cryoconsole used to dictate the entire procedure. Results: Given the 40 participants in the study, a total of 160 pulmonary veins were analyzed. The t-test shows that the left upper pulmonary vein was the most advantageous vein to isolate, and the lower right pulmonary vein was the least advantageous. p-value analysis has also shown significant differences between left and right pulmonary veins, with that difference being lower in value between the left-sided pulmonary veins. Additionally, the chi-squared test confirmed a statistically significant difference between successful cryoablations of left-sided and right-sided pulmonary veins. This has shown that the left-sided pulmonary veins are easier to isolate on first cryoablation, rather than their right-sided counterparts. Conclusion: Pulmonary vein isolation by cryoablation is an excellent proof of incorporating fundamental physical principles in medicinal purposes. This study keeps the doors open for further research into optimal approaches in atrial fibrillation treatment. Therefore, comparing our study with recent publications and literature suggests higher success in isolating left pulmonary veins compared to right pulmonary veins.
Failure Mode and Effects Analysis Application in External Beam Radiotherapy
Authors: Manestar Vedran , O'Donovan Anita , Barrett Sarah
Published: May 2024

Background: Radiotherapy is a medical procedure with potential high risk to harm patients. In order to reduce that risk and create a workflow safe for patients, prospective analysis tools are used. Failure modes and effect analysis (FMEA) is one such tool, used to evaluate potential risks. As FMEA originated from industry, there is a constant effort to adjust FMEA methodology for use in radiotherapy. This has caused a variety of approaches and inhomogeneous practices. Purpose: To investigate the current practice of FMEA in external beam radiotherapy and to propose a more standardised approach. Materials and Methods: The search was performed in PubMed, Ovid and Embase databases, resulting in 312 articles retrieved. Using PRISMA methodology the number of unique articles meeting inclusion and exclusion criteria was reduced to a total of 35, containing 38 analyses. The data on FMEA methodology implemented, scope of analysis, expert team composition, number of failure modes (FM) detected, relative priority number (RPN) threshold, number of FM exceeding the threshold, minimum, maximum and mean RPN, RPN calculation method and risk mitigation strategies were selected as important properties of FMEA. Results: Data retrieved showed large variation in how FMEA is conducted. There is a considerable underreporting of minimum and mean RPN values. Large variations in RPN threshold value selection were also observed. Two different approaches to RPN calculation procedure were reported, and it is unclear what the best practice is. Expert teams were assembled according to the guidelines, but the optimal number of members is unclear. The vast majority of risk mitigation measures were applied directly, without the use of systematic tools. Conclusion: FMEA is a well-established and widely used tool for prospective risk assessment in radiotherapy. As a result of this analysis, recommendations for more standardized approaches were proposed. Possible additional research goals were proposed in order to provide evidence for best practice in some areas of FMEA.

Published: May 2024

In aquaculture, the use of Artemia as an optimal nutrient resource for fish fry is an object of growing interest. The advantages of using Artemia include the possibility of mass cultivation under controlled conditions, the possibility of long-term storage in frozen form and resistance to external environmental conditions. Artemia, belonging to crustaceans, is a rich source of protein, fat, vitamins and minerals necessary for the healthy development of fish larvae. Due to the high content of unsaturated fatty acids, omega-3 and omega-6, fry contribute to the development of a healthy immune system, which reduces the risk of many diseases. Their small size and mobility make them available for cultivation, which ensures a high level of quality and reduces feed consumption. The results of the study show that the use of crustaceans as the main food source for fish farming contributes to improving the life, growth and health of fry. This makes them a successful type of feed in aquaculture and an optimal resource for fish farming. Further research in this area can lead to increased efficiency of fish farming, development of practices and improvement of the overall potential of the aquaculture industry. This article discusses the advantages of using Artemia, its biological value, ease of cultivation and versatility in the nutrition of various fish larvae. Various methods and technologies of growing Artemisia are analyzed, as well as their application in breeding species of fish larvae. Special attention is paid to optimizing the maximum growth of fish larvae and feeding conditions.

La enseñanza de matemáticas en este nivel enfrenta desafíos importantes, como la falta de motivación y el bajo rendimiento académico. Los juegos de razonamiento lógico, como el Sudoku, el ajedrez y los acertijos matemáticos, ofrecen una herramienta innovadora para resolver estos problemas en un entorno divertido y desafiante. La investigación se llevó a cabo con una muestra de estudiantes de secundaria, utilizando un diseño cuasiexperimental para evaluar los efectos de estos juegos en habilidades matemáticas clave, incluido el pensamiento crítico, la resolución de problemas y el razonamiento abstracto. Se utilizaron varias herramientas de evaluación para medir el desempeño antes y después de la intervención.
Los resultados indican que los estudiantes que participaron en actividades con juegos de razonamiento lógico mostraron una mejora significativa en sus habilidades matemáticas en comparación con un grupo de control que no utilizó estos juegos. Además, se observó un aumento en la motivación y el interés por las matemáticas entre los participantes del grupo experimental. Estos resultados sugieren que la integración de juegos de razonamiento lógico en el currículo de matemáticas puede ser una estrategia efectiva para mejorar el desempeño y las actitudes de los estudiantes hacia la materia. Sin embargo, se reconocen las limitaciones del estudio, como el tamaño de la muestra y la duración de la intervención, y se proponen áreas para futuras investigaciones. Sin embargo, es importante destacar que los juegos de razonamiento lógico representan una valiosa herramienta educativa para mejorar las habilidades matemáticas en el nivel secundario.

En los últimos años, la inmunoterapia en oncología ha revolucionado el pronóstico de los pacientes con cáncer al dirigirse específicamente a las complejas interacciones entre las células tumorales y el huésped. Aunque estas terapias han mejorado significativamente las tasas de supervivencia, su aumento en uso ha llevado consigo la aparición de eventos adversos conocidos como irAEs. Estos incluyen una variedad de afecciones como alteraciones dermatológicas, endocrinas, gastrointestinales, el síndrome de liberación de citocinas (CRS), hipofisitis, neumonitis, miocarditis, meningitis y el síndrome de neurotoxicidad asociado a células efectoras inmunitarias (ICANS), así como las infecciones asociadas. En este artículo se describen detalladamente los irAEs más comunes, desde su epidemiología hasta su clasificación y diagnóstico, se exploran los posibles tratamientos para los casos más graves que requieren ingreso en unidades de cuidados intensivos (UCI), lo que incluye la suspensión de la inmunoterapia y medidas de soporte orgánico para ganar tiempo en eventos potencialmente reversibles. En la mayoría de las reacciones graves se utilizan corticosteroides y otras terapias inmunosupresoras para controlar la respuesta autoinmune. El conocimiento profundo de estos fenómenos de toxicidad es esencial para los médicos encargados del seguimiento de pacientes oncológicos, tanto en entornos ambulatorios como hospitalarios como para el personal asistencial de las unidades de cuidado intensivos, ya que la identificación temprana, el reporte adecuado y un manejo multidisciplinario pueden cambiar el curso de eventos potencialmente desfavorables. Este enfoque integral es fundamental para mejorar los desenlaces clínicos y la calidad de vida de los pacientes que se someten a inmunoterapia en el contexto oncológico.
