Implanted System for Orthostatic Hypotension in Multiple-System Atrophy

Grégoire Courtine, Jocelyne Bloch, Jordan Squair, Léonie Asboth, Robin Jonathan Demesmaeker, Nicolas Hankov, Sergio Daniel Hernandez, Grégory Didier Dumont, Suje Amir, Maxime Berney

Orthostatic hypotension is a cardinal feature of multiple-system atrophy. The upright posture provokes syncopal episodes that prevent patients from standing and walking for more than brief periods. We implanted a system to restore regulation of blood press ...

Effect of Lower Limb vs. Abdominal Compression on Mobility in Orthostatic Hypotension: A Single-Blinded, Randomized, Controlled, Cross-Over Pilot Study in Parkinson's Disease

Kamiar Aminian, Arash Atrsaei

Background: Orthostatic hypotension (OH) in Parkinson's disease (PD) is frequent and associated with impairments in quality of life and reduced activities of daily living. Abdominal binders (AB) and compression stockings (CS) have been shown to be effectiv ...

Electrical spinal cord stimulation protocols to regulate neurological functions after spinal cord injury

Salif Axel Komi

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a life-changing event. People who suffer from it lose their abilityto move normally and are subject to life-threatening symptoms. When the insult is not toosevere, partial recovery is possible. Otherwise, for severely affected p ...

Combining Reflexes and External Sensory Information in a Neuromusculoskeletal Model to Control a Quadruped Robot

Auke Ijspeert, Azhar Aulia Saputra

This article examines the importance of integrating locomotion and cognitive information for achieving dynamic locomotion from a viewpoint combining biology and ecological psychology. We present a mammalian neuromusculoskeletal model from external sensory ...

Brainstem Correlates of a Cold Pressor Test Measured by Ultra-High Field fMRI

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Olivier Benoit Thomas Reynaud, Domenica Bueti, Fatma Megdiche

Introduction Modern imaging techniques such as blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) allow the non-invasive and indirect measurement of brain activity. Whether changes in signal intensity can be detected in small ...

One the effect of the Vertical Axis Alignment on Cybersickness and Game Experience in Supine Posture

Ronan Boulic, Nana Tian, Louis Philippe Simoes Lopes

Cybersickness is still an inevitable adverse effect when using VR systems, resulting in different levels of discomfort, and potentially breaking the immersive experience. To date, few studies have focused on exploring VR experience in the supine posture. R ...

How Do We Analyze Effects of Low Diastolic Blood Pressure?

Mats Julius Stensrud

Lee and colleagues “sought to determine whether the development of diastolic hypotension during treatment was associated with adverse outcomes”.1 They used a conventional proportional hazards model employing diastolic blood pressure as a time-varying expos ...

On the Influence of the Supine Posture on Simulation Sickness in Virtual Reality

Ronan Boulic

Virtual Reality (VR) has the capability of fully immersing users into a wide variety of gaming experiences where the sole focus of the user is on that experience itself. One problem that often occurs when it comes to VR experiences is that of simulation si ...

Minimal Window Duration for Accurate HRV Recording in Athletes

Jean-Marc Vesin, Grégoire Millet, Sasan Yazdani

Heart rate variability (HRV) is non-invasive and commonly used for monitoring responses to training loads, fitness, or overreaching in athletes. Yet, the recording duration for aseries of RR-intervals varies from 1 to 15 min in the literature. The aim of t ...

Diastolic hypotension due to intensive blood pressure therapy: Is it harmful?

Mats Julius Stensrud

Background and aims Reducing the diastolic blood pressure (DBP) below a certain threshold may lead to inadequate organ perfusion. This raises some concerns, because pharmacotherapy reduces both systolic and diastolic pressure. We aimed to investigate wheth ...
