The Marginal Ice Zone as a dominant source region of atmospheric mercury during central Arctic summertime

Julia Schmale, Ivo Fabio Beck, Hélène Paule Angot

Atmospheric gaseous elemental mercury (GEM) concentrations in the Arctic exhibit a clear summertime maximum, while the origin of this peak is still a matter of debate in the community. Based on summertime observations during the Multidisciplinary drifting ...

Modulation of Pulsatile Left Ventricular Afterload by Renal Denervation in Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Stamatia Zoi Pagoulatou

Background:Arterial stiffening contributes to hemodynamic derangements in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). We sought to investigate the impact of renal denervation on pulsatile left ventricular loading in patients with HFpEF and hype ...

Long-term monitoring of black carbon across Germany

Julia Schmale

Lately, black carbon (BC) has received significant attention due to its climate-warming properties and adverse health effects. Nevertheless, long-term observations in urban areas are scarce, most likely because BC monitoring is not required by environmenta ...

Results of CO2 Laser-assisted Deep Sclerectomy as Compared With Conventional Deep Sclerectomy

André Mermoud, Sylvain Roy

Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of CO2 laser-assisted sclerectomy surgery (CLASS) compared with classic nonpenetrating deep sclerectomy (NPDS) with implant in medically uncontrolled glaucoma patients. Materials and Methods: Patients who underwent primary ...

In Vivo Testing of a Novel Adjustable Glaucoma Drainage Device

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, André Mermoud, Sylvain Roy, Adan Villamarin, Stéphane Bigler

PURPOSE. We report on the in vivo testing of a novel noninvasively adjustable glaucoma drainage device (AGDD), which features an adjustable outflow resistance, and assess the safety and efficiency of this implant. METHODS. Under general anesthesia, the AGD ...

Haemodynamic responses to temperature changes of human skeletal muscle studied by laser-Doppler flowmetry

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Jean-Noël Hyacinthe, Jonas Richiardi

Using a small, but very instructive experiment, it is demonstrated that laser-Doppler flowmetry (LDF) at large interoptode spacing represents a unique tool for new investigations of thermoregulatory processes modulating the blood flow of small muscle masse ...

Bio Simulation of Brain Ventricle Dilation in Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus

Kamal Shahim

Hydrocephalus is a brain disease wherein the ventricles dilate and compress the parenchyma towards the skull. It is primarily characterized by the disruption of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow within the ventricular system. Normal pressure hydrocephalus ...
