A Tunable Self-Offloading Module for Plantar Pressure Regulation in Diabetic Patients

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Paolo Germano, Christian Köchli, Sofia Lydia Ntella, Kenny Jeanmonod, Bhawnath Tiwari

Plantar pressure plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of foot ulcers among patients with diabetes and peripheral polyneuropathy. Pressure relief is a key requirement for both the prevention and treatment of plantar ulcers. Conventional medical practice ...

First Advanced Bilayer Scaffolds for Tailored Skin Tissue Engineering Produced via Electrospinning and Melt Electrowriting

Biranche Tandon, Nicolas Tissot

In vitro skin models are validated methods for screening cosmetics and pharmaceuticals, but still have limitations. The bilayer poly(epsilon-caprolactone) scaffold/membrane model described here overcomes some of these deficits by integrating a solution ele ...

Advances in the Sensing and Treatment of Wound Biofilms

Hubert Girault, Sorour Darvishi

Wound biofilms represent a particularly challenging problem in modern medicine. They are increasingly antibiotic resistant and can prevent the healing of chronic wounds. However, current treatment and diagnostic options are hampered by the complexity of th ...

Longitudinal interrogation of sympathetic neural circuits and hemodynamics in preclinical models

Grégoire Courtine, Quentin Barraud, Jordan Squair, Matthieu Pierre Gautier, Rémi Bernard René Hudelle, Suje Amir, Victor Perez Puchalt, Loïs Thomas Romain Mahe, Jan Elaine Cuevas Soriano

Neurological disorders, including spinal cord injury, result in hemodynamic instability due to the disruption of supraspinal projections to the sympathetic circuits located in the spinal cord. We recently developed a preclinical model that allows the ident ...

Revealing Antibiotic Tolerance of the Mycobacterium smegmatis Xanthine/Uracil Permease Mutant Using Microfluidics and Single-Cell Analysis

John McKinney, Neeraj Dhar, Meltem Elitas

To reveal rare phenotypes in bacterial populations, conventional microbiology tools should be advanced to generate rapid, quantitative, accurate, and high-throughput data. The main drawbacks of widely used traditional methods for antibiotic studies include ...

Noninvasive Cardiac Output and Central Systolic Pressure From Cuff-Pressure and Pulse Wave Velocity

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Bram Trachet, Vasiliki Bikia, Stamatia Zoi Pagoulatou

Goal: We introduce a novel approach to estimate cardiac output (CO) and central systolic blood pressure (cSBP) from noninvasive measurements of peripheral cuff-pressure and carotid-to-femoral pulse wave velocity (cf-PWV). Methods: The adjustment of a previ ...

Modeling of Simultaneous Propagation of Multiple Blade‑Like Hydraulic Fractures from a Horizontal Well

Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion, Dmitry Nikolskiy

We explore different aspects of the multi-stage fracturing process such as stress interaction between growing hydraulic fractures, perforation friction, as well as the wellbore flow dynamics using a specifically developed numerical solver. In particular, g ...

Vascular-targeted low dose photodynamic therapy stabilizes tumor vessels by modulating pericyte contractility

Paul Joseph Dyson, Georges Wagnières, Matthieu Philippe Emmanuel Zellweger, Tina Riedel

Vascular-targeted low-dose photodynamic therapy (L-PDT) was shown to improve chemotherapy distribution in malignant pleural tumors such as malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM). However, the mechanisms triggered by L-PDT on the tumor vasculature are still d ...

System for Adjusting Pressure Locally on the Skin and Subcutaneous Tissue

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Daniel Grivon

The invention relates to a system for adjusting pressure locally acting on the skin. Said system includes a set of adjacent modules distributed so as to form a layer. Each module includes a cushion capable of changing shape and comprising a cavity, a valve ...
