Urinary incontinence (UI) is prevalent and distressing medical condition affecting millions of patients worldwide. Current treatment options for severe cases often involve surgical intervention, such as the implantation of an artificial urinary sphincter ( ...
Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE)2024System for micturition control in a mammal with bladder disfunction
Grégoire Courtine, Jocelyne Bloch, Jordan Squair
The present invention relates to a neuromodulation/neurostimulation system (10) for stimulating at least one neuronal circuitry responsible for micturition control in a mammal with bladder disfunction, especially for bladder relaxation and/or for bladder v ...
2024Design and Prototype an artificial urethra
The human urethra is a complex tubular organ that allows to empty urine from the urinary bladder. Due to its hyperelastic properties and heterogeneous composition, the design of an artificial urethra (AU) is a real engineering challenge. Within the Center ...
2023Decoding bladder state from pudendal intraneural signals in pigs
Silvestro Micera, Stéphanie Lacour, Leonardo Pollina, Ivo Strauss, Valentina Marie Paggi
Neuroprosthetic devices used for the treatment of lower urinary tract dysfunction, such as incontinence or urinary retention, apply a pre-set continuous, open-loop stimulation paradigm, which can cause voiding dysfunctions due to neural adaptation. In the ...

Low urinary tract dysfunctions and symptoms (LUTS) and Urinary incontinence (UI) in particular is a medical condition that affects millions of people worldwide. One of the most promising long term treatments for this condition is the use of an artificial u ...
IEEE2023Recent advances in therapeutic targets identification and development of treatment strategies towards Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections
The opportunistic human pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the causal agent of a wide variety of infections. This non-fermentative Gram-negative bacillus can colonize zones where the skin barrier is weakened, such as wounds or burns. It also causes infecti ...
BMC2023Influence of channel geomorphic units on bedload transport and river morphology during low‐magnitude bed‐forming floods coupled with sediment augmentation
Giovanni De Cesare, Severin Stähly, Christian Mörtl, Robin Schroff
In this study, we map different types of channel geomorphic units in a sediment-starved, residual-flow reach before and after an artificial flood. Bedload particles of a previous sediment augmentation measure are tracked with passive integrated transponder ...
2023Force imposée sur un râtelier en amont d’un évacuateur de crue par des bois flottants, et concept pour favoriser le passage des bois flottants
Giovanni De Cesare, Michael Pfister, Loïc Bénet
L’obstruction de l’évacuateur de crue d’un barrage par des bois flottants peut réduire sa capacité hydraulique. Pour limiter cet effet, un râtelier peut être installé pour retenir les bois en amont de la section critique d’écoulement. Sur la base d’une mod ...
2022T2 mapping for the characterization of prostate lesions
Purpose Purpose of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of quantitative T2/ADC values in differentiating between PCa and lesions showing non-specific inflammatory infiltrates and atrophy, features of chronic prostatitis, as the most common his ...
SPRINGER2022Type 1 piliated uropathogenic Escherichia coli hijack the host immune response by binding to CD14
A key attribute of persistent or recurring bacterial infections is the ability of the pathogen to evade the host's immune response. Many Enterobacteriaceae express type 1 pili, a pre-adapted virulence trait, to invade host epithelial cells and establish pe ...
