Background and Aims. Recent data suggested a potential role of miR-143 as a biomarker for systemic inflammation and infection. However, its role in critical illness and sepsis is only poorly understood. Methods. We determined circulating levels of miR-143 in 218 critically ill patients, of which 135 fulfilled sepsis criteria, and compared them to 76 healthy controls. Results were correlated with clinical records. Results. In the total cohort of critically ill patients from a medical intensive care...

Hyaluronan (HA) and collagen are highly expressed in pancreatic cancer (PC) stroma. HA and collagen accumulation increase tumor interstitial fluid pressure, compromising blood flow and drug penetration. The aim of this biomarker study was to determine the clinical utility of serum HA and the propeptide of type III collagen (PRO‐C3) in patients with PC. A cohort from the Danish BIOPAC study (NCT03311776) including patients with histologically confirmed pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (n = 809), ampullary...

Complete and accurate registration of cancer is needed to provide reliable data on cancer incidence and to investigate aetiology. Such data can be derived from national cancer registries, but also from large population‐based cohort studies. As yet, the concordance and discordance between these two data sources remain unknown. We evaluated completeness and accuracy of cancer registration by studying the concordance between the population‐based Rotterdam Study (RS) and the Netherlands Cancer Registry...

Sixty percent of patients with acute biliary disease who underwent early surgical intervention have a ‘complicated’ laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) and this is associated with worse post‐operative outcomes compared with ‘straightforward’ procedures. In order to schedule operations accurately and provide appropriate resources, the expected difficulty of an early LC can be assessed pre‐operatively using a simple prediction model based on the clinical diagnosis of acute cholecystitis, a positive Murphy's...
