Locomotion of Sensor‐Integrated Soft Robotic Devices Inside Sub‐Millimeter Arteries with Impaired Flow Conditions

Diego Ghezzi, Mahmut Selman Sakar, Lorenzo Francesco John Noseda, Amit Yedidia Dolev, Lucio Feo Pancaldi-Giubbini, Adele Fanelli

One of the grand challenges in interventional cardiology and neuroradiology is to minimize the operation time and risk of damage during catheterization. These two factors drastically increase if the target location resides in small and tortuous vessels. Fl ...

Integrating regional perfusion CT information to improve prediction of infarction after stroke

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Maria Giulia Preti, Elisabeth Anne Dirren

Physiological evidence suggests that neighboring brain regions have similar perfusion characteristics (vascular supply, collateral blood flow). It is largely unknown whether integrating perfusion CT (pCT) information from the area surrounding a given voxel ...

Early sepsis diagnosis via protein and miRNA biomarkers using a novel point-of-care photonic biosensor

Hatice Altug, Alexander Belushkin

y Sepsis is a condition characterized by a severe stage of blood-infection often leading to tissue damage, organ failure and finally death. Fast diagnosis and identification of the sepsis stage (sepsis, severe sepsis or septic shock) is critical for the pa ...

Laser doppler imaging as additional monitoring after digital replanting: A prospective study

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville

BackgroundDespite various exisiting monitoring methods, there is still a need for new technologies to improve the quality of post-operative evaluation of digital replantation. The purpose of the study is using a laser Doppler imaging device (Easy-LDI) as a ...

Hypertonic Lactate to Improve Cerebral Perfusion and Glucose Availability After Acute Brain Injury

Pierre Magistretti, Jocelyne Bloch

Objectives: Lactate promotes cerebral blood flow and is an efficient substrate for the brain, particularly at times of glucose shortage. Hypertonic lactate is neuroprotective after experimental brain injury; however, human data are limited. ...

An inverse problem for a semilinear parabolic equation arising from cardiac electrophysiology

Andrea Manzoni

In this paper we develop theoretical analysis and numerical reconstruction techniques for the solution of an inverse boundary value problem dealing with the nonlinear, time-dependent monodomain equation, which models the evolution of the electric potential ...

A shock front at the radio relic of Abell 2744

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Mathilde Jauzac, Céline Tchernin

Radio relics are Mpc-scale diffuse radio sources at the peripheries of galaxy clusters which are thought to trace outgoing merger shocks. We present XMM-Newton and Suzaku observations of the galaxy cluster Abell 2744 (z = 0.306), which reveal the presence ...

Sensing Gram-negative bacteria: a phylogenetic perspective

Bruno Lemaitre

Gram-negative bacteria represent a major group of pathogens that infect all eukaryotes from plants to mammals. Gram-negative microbe-associated molecular patterns include lipopolysaccharides and peptidoglycans, major immunostimulatory determinants across p ...

How to prevent venous cannula orifice obstruction during extracorporeal circulation

Julien Favre

Venous cannula orifice obstruction is an underestimated problem during augmented cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), which can potentially be reduced with redesigned, virtually wall-less cannula designs versus traditional percutaneous control venous cannulas. A ...

Cerebral metabolic effects of exogenous lactate supplementation on the injured human brain

Pierre Magistretti, Jocelyne Bloch, Reto Meuli

Experimental evidence suggests that lactate is neuroprotective after acute brain injury; however, data in humans are lacking. We examined whether exogenous lactate supplementation improves cerebral energy metabolism in humans with traumatic brain injury (T ...

Compositions and use of sulfasalazine

Kai Johnsson, Christopher Chidley

The invention relates to compositions comprising sulfasalazine or sulfapyridine and products of a biosynthetic pathway that requires tetrahydrobiopterin. Such compositions are useful for the treatment of inflammatory bowel diseases or rheumatoid arthritis, ...
