Event-related causality in stereo-EEG discriminates syntactic processing of noun phrases and verb phrases

Objective. Syntax involves complex neurobiological mechanisms, which are difficult to disentangle for multiple reasons. Using a protocol able to separate syntactic information from sound information we investigated the neural causal connections evoked by t ...

Overcorrected Implants for Total Shoulder Arthroplasty

Yasmine Boulanaache

Glenohumeral osteoarthritis is a degenerative shoulder joint disease, which causes the breakdown of articular cartilage and bone. People affected by this disease suffer from severe pain and eventually reduced mobility and poor life quality. This disease is ...

Prosthetic Control and Sensory Feedback for Upper Limb Amputees

Huaiqi Huang

Hand amputation could dramatically degrade the life quality of amputees. Many amputees use prostheses to restore part of the hand functions. Myoelectric prosthesis provides the most dexterous control. However, they are facing high rejection rate. One of th ...

Unravelling the precipitation pathway of biorelevant minerals: from fundamental studies to biomedical applications

Agnese Carino

The formation pathway of biominerals archetypes, namely calcium carbonate (CaC) and calcium phosphates (CaPs), was investigated using a multidisciplinary approach. The time-resolved analytical data were collected using a controlled-composition method and i ...

Fixed and mobile-bearing total ankle prostheses: Effect on tibial bone strain

Alexandre Terrier, Xavier Crevoisier, Maïka Réane Guillemin, Caroline Sieger Fernandes

Background Total ankle replacement is associated to a high revision rate. To improve implant survival, the potential advantage of prostheses with fixed bearing compared to mobile bearing is unclear. The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis th ...

Fascicular nerve stimulation and recording using a novel double-aisle regenerative electrode

Silvestro Micera

Objective. As artificial prostheses become more refined, they are most often used as a therapeutic option for hand amputation. By contrast to extra- or intraneural interfaces, regenerative nerve electrodes are designed to enable electrical interfaces with ...

Upper limb cortical maps in amputees with targeted muscle and sensory reinnervation

Olaf Blanke, Andrea Serino, Michel Akselrod, Wietske Van der Zwaag, Roy Salomon, Giulio Rognini, Roberto Martuzzi, Elisa Canzoneri, Maria Laura Blefari

Neuroprosthetics research in amputee patients aims at developing new prostheses that move and feel like real limbs. Targeted muscle and sensory reinnervation (TMSR) is such an approach and consists of rerouting motor and sensory nerves from the residual li ...

Computational comparison of aortic root stresses in presence of stentless and stented aortic valve bio-prostheses

Alfio Quarteroni, Christian Vergara, Elena Faggiano

We provide a computational comparison of the performance of stentless and stented aortic prostheses, in terms of aortic root displacements and internal stresses. To this aim, we consider three real patients; for each of them, we draw the two prostheses con ...

Injectable, Self-opening, and Freestanding Retinal Prosthesis for Fighting Blindness

Diego Ghezzi, Kevin Sivula, Marta Jole Ildelfonsa Airaghi Leccardi, Laura Ferlauto

Purpose:In the past decade, retinal prostheses emerged as promising technology to restore a primitive, although clinically useful, form of vision. However, fighting blindness with retinal prostheses require challenges not yet achieved. From a clinical pers ...
