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, 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 ...

A novel approach for swimming analysis in main swimming styles using a single sacrum-worn IMU sensor

Kamiar Aminian, Mahdi Hamidi Rad

Introduction: Today, inertial measurement units (IMU) provide promising solutions for swimmers’ motions analysis [1-3]. However, most studies focused on few parameters, often during strokes of front crawl style [4]. For swimming training session monitoring ...

Oxygen availability in a HAPE-positive and a HAPE-negative woman before and during a visit to 3480 meters

Johannes Burtscher

Background: Testing the hypoxic ventilatory response (HVR) at low-altitude helps to detect those who do not hyperventilate appropriately in hypoxia but might not necessarily predict the HVR and the risk to develop acute mountain sickness (AMS) at high alti ...

Self-Navigation with Compressed Sensing for 2D translational Motion Correction in Free-Breathing Coronary MRI: a Feasibility Study

Yves Wiaux, Gilles Puy, Ruud van Heeswijk, Davide Piccini, Gabriele Vincenzo Bonanno

Purpose Respiratory motion correction remains a challenge in coronary magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and current techniques, such as navigator gating, suffer from sub-optimal scan efficiency and ease-of-use. To overcome these limitations, an image-based ...

Kinetics of Atrial Repolarization Alternans in a Free-Behaving Ovine Model

Jean-Marc Vesin, Florian Jousset, Etienne Pruvot

Kinetics of Atrial Repolarization Alternans. Introduction: Repolarization alternans (Re-ALT), a beat-to-beat alternation in action potential repolarization, promotes dispersion of repolarization, wavebreaks, and reentry. Recently, Re-ALT has been shown to ...

Nitroxyl exacerbates ischemic cerebral injury and oxidative neurotoxicity

Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Sonia Donzelli

Nitroxyl (HNO) donor compounds function as potent vasorelaxants, improve myocardial contractility and reduce ischemia-reperfusion injury in the cardiovascular system. With respect to the nervous system, HNO donors have been shown to attenuate NMDA receptor ...
