Abstract
Background: There are not many publications on the long-term results of surgical treatment for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) comparing open repair (OR) and endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR). Method: Using a propensity score (PS), we matched cohorts which were eligible for both types of treatment and underwent an elective surgical procedure for infrarenal AAA between 2002 and 2008. The endpoint of the study was long-term survival without re-intervention. Results: From a total of 442 patients treated from 2002 to 2008, we identified 140 patients of whom 72 received a tube graft and 68 were treated by EVAR. Median observation time was 5 years (0.04-10.3). Mortality was zero in the EVAR group and 1 % in the OR group, with cumulative survival after 5 and 10 years being 82 (79 %) in the OR group and 80 (58 %) in the EVAR group. Three patients (4 %) out of 72 with open surgery and 23 patients (34 %) from the EVAR group had to undergo a repeat surgery. Conclusion: Both procedures are safe methods to eliminate aneurysms. However, the high rate of re-interventions or conversions in the EVAR group has to be considered in the selection of treatment.

Abstract
Increased protein intake versus maltodextrin intake for 4 weeks lowers blood pressure. Concerns exist that high‐protein diets reduce renal function. Effects of acute and 4‐week protein intake versus maltodextrin intake on renal acid load, glomerular filtration rate and related parameters were compared in this study. Seventy‐nine overweight individuals with untreated elevated blood pressure and normal kidney function were randomized to consume a mix of protein isolates (60 g/day) or maltodextrin (60 g/day) for 4 weeks in energy balance. Twenty‐four‐hour urinary potential renal acid load (uPRAL) was compared between groups. A subgroup (maltodextrin N = 27, protein mix N = 25) participated in extra test days investigating fasting levels and postprandial effects of meals supplemented with a moderate protein‐ or maltodextrin‐load on glomerular filtration rate, effective renal plasma flow, plasma renin, aldosterone, pH, and bicarbonate. uPRAL was significantly higher in the protein group after 4 weeks (P ≤ 0.001). Postprandial filtration fraction decreased further after the protein‐supplemented breakfast than after the maltodextrin‐supplemented breakfast after 4 weeks of supplementation (P ≤ 0.001). Fasting and postprandial levels of glomerular filtration rate, effective renal plasma flow, renin, aldosterone, angiotensin‐converting enzyme, pH and bicarbonate did not differ between groups. In conclusion, 4 weeks on an increased protein diet (25% of energy intake) increased renal acid load, but did not affect renal function. Postprandial changes, except for filtration fraction, also did not differ between groups. These data suggest that a moderate increase in protein intake by consumption of a protein mix for 4 weeks causes no (undesirable) effects on kidney function in overweight and obese individuals with normal kidney function.

Abstract
Background: In critical limb ischaemia (CLI), a pedal vein graft bypass offers good long-term results regarding function and limb salvage. However, some cases require bypasses to branches of pedal arteries based on angiographic findings. Methods: In a retrospective database we analysed all patients who received a vein graft bypass to branches of pedal arteries for treatment of critical limb ischaemia. Results: From January 1998 to June 2014 we performed bypasses to branches of pedal arteries in 72 patients (59 men and 13 women) out of a total of 534 patients who underwent pedal bypass surgery. The proximal bypass anastomosis was above the knee in 30 cases and below the knee in 42 patients. In 6 cases the bypass connection was made to the lateral tarsal artery, in 15 cases it was made to the lateral and in 24 cases to the medial plantar artery. In 27 patients a direct connection was made to the plantar bifurcation. All reconstructions were completely autologous. The limb salvage rate after 5 and 10 years was 82 %. Conclusion: A bypass to branches of pedal arteries is a procedure recommendable for limb salvage in cases of critical ischaemia where arteries with a larger diameter are no longer available.

Abstract
Diet composition may affect blood pressure (BP), but the mechanisms are unclear. The aim of the present study was to compare postprandial BP-related responses to the ingestion of pea protein, milk protein and egg-white protein. In addition, postprandial BP-related responses to the ingestion of maltodextrin were compared with those to the ingestion of sucrose and a protein mix. We hypothesised that lower postprandial total peripheral resistance (TPR) and BP levels would be accompanied by higher plasma concentrations of nitric oxide, insulin, glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) and glucagon. On separate occasions, six meals were tested in a randomised order in forty-eight overweight or obese adults with untreated elevated BP. Postprandial responses of TPR, BP and plasma concentrations of insulin, glucagon, GLP-1 and nitrite, nitroso compounds (RXNO) and S-nitrosothiols (NO(x)) were measured for 4 h. No differences were observed in TPR responses. Postprandial BP levels were higher after the ingestion of the egg-white-protein meal than after that of meals containing the other two proteins (P≤ 0·01). The ingestion of the pea-protein meal induced the highest NO(x) response (P≤ 0·006). Insulin and glucagon concentrations were lowest after the ingestion of the egg-white-protein meal (P≤ 0·009). Postprandial BP levels were lower after the ingestion of the maltodextrin meal than after that of the protein mix and sucrose meals (P≤ 0·004), while postprandial insulin concentrations were higher after the ingestion of the maltodextrin meal than after that of the sucrose and protein mix meals after 1-2 h (P≤ 0·0001). Postprandial NO(x), GLP-1 and glucagon concentrations were lower after the ingestion of the maltodextrin meal than after that of the protein mix meal (P≤ 0·008). In conclusion, different protein and carbohydrate sources induce different postprandial BP-related responses, which may be important for BP management. Lower postprandial BP levels are not necessarily accompanied by higher NO(x), insulin, glucagon or GLP-1 responses.

Abstract
The replacement of dietary carbohydrates with proteins can lower blood pressure (BP), but the mechanisms remain unclear. This randomized, double-blind, parallel-group study aimed to compare 12-h postprandial sympathetic and hemodynamic responses after high-protein (HP) meals and high-carbohydrate (HC) meals. Fifty-two men and women with untreated elevated BP were tested on d 1 and after 4 wk of supplementation [3 × 20 g protein (HP) or maltodextrin (HC) per day]. No between-group differences were found in postprandial plasma norepinephrine on d 1 and at wk 4. On d 1, postprandial mean arterial pressure (MAP) decreased more in the HC group than in the HP group (P = 0.002). This difference was not present at 4 wk, because the postprandial decline in MAP tended to become larger in the HP group after 4 wk of supplementation (P = 0.07). On both test days, postprandial total peripheral resistance tended to decrease more in the HC group (P < 0.08). After 4 wk of supplementation, cardiac output tended to increase more in the HC group (P = 0.08). In conclusion, ingestion of an HP diet induced a smaller decrease in BP on d 1 than did ingestion of an HC diet. This difference disappeared after 4 wk due to a more pronounced decrease in BP in the HP group after 4 wk than on d 1. These findings cannot explain the BP-lowering effect ascribed to dietary proteins.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dietary protein intake may help to manage blood pressure (BP) and prevent complications associated with elevated BP. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to determine whether 4 wk of increased protein intake (∼25% compared with ∼15% of energy intake that isoenergetically replaces carbohydrate intake) lowers office and daytime BP compared with increased carbohydrate intake. DESIGN A randomized, double-blind, parallel study compared consumption of 3 × 20 g protein/d (20% pea, 20% soy, 30% egg, and 30% milk-protein isolate) with 3 × 20 g maltodextrin/d. Protein or maltodextrin were isoenergetically substituted for a sugar-sweetened drink. Primary outcomes were office and daytime BP. A total of 99 men and women [age range: 20-70 y; BMI (in kg/m²): 25-35] with untreated elevated BP (BP ≥130/85 and <160/100 mm Hg) were randomly assigned. Ninety-four completers (51 subjects in the maltodextrin group, 43 subjects in the protein group) were included in the analyses. RESULTS Office systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were 4.9 ± 1.7 mm Hg (P = 0.005) and 2.7 ± 1.3 mm Hg (P = 0.05) lower, respectively, in the protein group. Daytime SBP was 4.6 ± 1.7 mm Hg lower in the protein group (P = 0.006), whereas daytime DBP did not differ between groups (P = 0.37). Urinary sodium excretion was higher in the maltodextrin group (P = 0.004). CONCLUSION Increased protein intake, at the expense of maltodextrin, lowers BP in overweight adults with upper-range prehypertension and grade 1 hypertension. This trial was registered at www.trialregister.nl as NTR 1362.

Abstract
Background: In cystic fibrosis (CF), prophylactic supplementation of the fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K is recommended. Limited data is available describing vitamin prescription adherence by adult patients. The aim of this study was to assess the use of prescribed vitamins and other nutritional supplements by adult CF patients. Methods: All adult CF patients (n = 111) registered at the Utrecht CF Center were invited to participate in a telephone survey on supplement use. Supplemental vitamin intakes were compared with recommendations. In a subsample, associations between supplemental intake and serum vitamin D and E values were assessed. Results: In this study 80 % of the patients reported the use of vitamin and/or mineral supplements. Fat-soluble vitamins were used by 43 % of pancreatic-sufficient (PS) and 81 % of pancreatic-insufficient (PI) patients. Of PI patients reporting supplemental vitamin use, only 9 % met the recommendations for vitamin A, 32 % for vitamin D, 59 % for vitamin E, and 81 % for vitamin K. Multivitamin supplements were used by 42 % of PI and by 29 % of PS patients. Other nutritional supplements were rarely used.Conclusion: A high percentage of PI patients use fat-soluble vitamins below recommendations. Therefore adequate monitoring of vitamin supplementation and status is warranted.
