Cardiac ablation is a worldwide accepted minimally invasive procedure to treat Atrial Fibrillation (AF). It consists in creating lesions with a catheter in the cardiac tissue in order to cut off specific electrical pathways. During this project, based on p ...
Intimal hyperplasia (IH) is a vascular remodeling process which often leads to failure of arterial bypass or hemodialysis access. Experimental and clinical work have provided insight in IH development; however, further studies under precise controlled cond ...
In situ forming implants are attractive for minimally invasive localized therapies such as aneurysm embolization. As for the superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs), their deposition/injection in a target tissue area allows magnetically induced ...
Aims: Patency failure of small vascular synthetic grafts is still a major problem for coronary and peripheral revascularization. Thus, three new surface coatings of small synthetic grafts were tested in an acute pig model to evaluate their thrombogenicity ...
We have examined the diameter response of rat femoral artery segments in the presence and absence of endothelium to changes in flow rate. The segments were isolated, mounted on microcannulae, maintained at 37 degrees C, and perfused at 90 mmHg with Tyrode' ...
Pénurie de logement et mal identitaire, masse et individu, densité et vide. C'est avant les deux stations du TSOL qui le pince, entre ses deux problématiques, que le projet est comme étiré, volontairement mis en tension à la recherche d'une architecture of ...
The pulmonary venous systolic flow wave has been attributed both to left heart phenomena, such as left atrial relaxation and descent of the mitral annulus, and to propagation of the pulmonary artery pressure pulse through the pulmonary bed from the right v ...
Low wall shear stress (WSS) increases neointimal hyperplasia (NH) in vein grafts and stents. We studied the causal relationship between WSS and NH formation in stents by locally increasing WSS with a flow divider (Anti-Restenotic Diffuser, Endoart SA) plac ...
Pressure and flow pulsations in the fetal heart propagate through the precordial vein and the ductus venosus (DV) but are normally not transmitted into the umbilical vein (UV). Pulsations in the umbilical vein do occur, however, in early pregnancy and in p ...
The mineralogy of the Tatahouine diogenite was investigated by optical microscopy, Raman micro-spectrometry, and scanning and transmission electron microscopies. Inclusions of alpha-cristobalite in orthopyroxenes, locally in symplectic association with chr ...
