Gastric insufflation during cardiopulmonary resuscitation: A study in human cadavers

Introduction: Bag-valve-mask ventilation is the first-line ventilation method during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Risks include excessive volume delivery and gastric insufflation, the latter increasing the risk of pneumonia. The efficacy of ventila ...

Integration of hybrid material systems in conformable neural interfaces

Florian Dylan Fallegger

Neural interfaces are devices that are implanted into the body and interface electrically with the central (CNS) or peripheral nervous system. They are inserted surgically for short periods of time or chronically to diagnose or treat several neural disease ...

Imagined paralysis alters somatosensory evoked-potentials

Olaf Blanke, Fred Mast, Christophe Lopez, Estelle Palluel, Silvia Marchesotti

Recent studies employing body illusions have shown that multisensory conflict can alter body representations and modulate low-level sensory processing. One defining feature of these body illusions is that they are sensory driven and thus passive on behalf ...

Active Stability of Glenohumeral Joint Diminishes during the End-range Motions

Dominique Pioletti, Alexandre Terrier, Alain Farron, Philippe Müllhaupt, Christoph Anselm Engelhardt, David Ingram, Ehsan Sarshari

The lack of congruence between the involved articular surfaces causes the inherent instability of the glenohumeral joint. This joint is therefore the most commonly dislocated joint in the human body. Anterior instability accounts for over 90% of the should ...

High intensity focused ultrasound for transcranial therapy of brain lesions and disorders

Yves Martin, Najat Salameh, Benjamin Robert

A novel MR-guided brain therapy device operating at 1 MHz has been designed and constructed. The system has been installed and tested in a clinical 1.5 T Philips Achieva MRI. Skull bone distortions induced on the ultrasonic beam are corrected using the con ...

Point Similarity Measures Based on MRF Modeling of Difference Images for Spline-Based 2D-3D Rigid Registration of x-Ray Fluoroscopy to CT Images

Michaël Unser, Philippe Thévenaz, Xiuwei Zhang

One of the main factors that affect the accuracy of intensity-based registration of two-dimensional (2D) X-ray fluoroscopy to three-dimensional (3D) CT data is the similarity measure, which is a criterion function that is used in the registration procedure ...

Wall stresses in the carotid bifurcation: Effects of wall non-homogeneity and correlation with intimal thickness

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Jean-Jacques Meister

A finite element model of the human carotid bifurcation was developed to investigate the possibility that pressure-induced arterial wall stresses lead to the formation of atherosclerosis. The effect of material non-homogeneity was investigated by measuring ...

A consensus motif in the RFX DNA binding domain and binding domain mutants with altered specificity

Philipp Bucher, Pauline Emery

The RFX DNA binding domain is a novel motif that has been conserved in a growing number of dimeric DNA-binding proteins, having diverse regulatory functions, in eukaryotic organisms ranging from yeasts to humans. To characterize this novel motif, we have p ...

Laser-induced temperature jump measurements in the kinetics of association and dissociation of the nitrogen oxide (N2O3) + M = nitrogen dioxide + nitrous oxide + M system

Hubert van den Bergh

Kinetic measurements have been made on the gas-phase reaction N2O4 + M .dblharw. 2NO2 + M by applying the temp.-jump relaxation method. Equil. mixts. contg. NO2, N2O4, a small quantity of an IR absorber, and an excess of a third-body bath gas, have been su ...
