Inter- and intra-individual variability in CO2 production and metabolic rate

Carbon dioxide generated by the human body and exhaled (VCO2) is commonly used for ventilation controls, while the metabolic rate (i.e., energy expenditure EE) is an important parameter defining human thermal comfort in buildings. These two parameters are ...

Comparing end-tidal CO2, respiration volume per time (RVT), and average gray matter signal for mapping cerebrovascular reactivity amplitude and delay with breath-hold task BOLD fMRI

Stefano Moia

Cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR), defined as the cerebral blood flow response to a vasoactive stimulus, is an imaging biomarker with demonstrated utility in a range of diseases and in typical development and aging processes. A robust and widely implemented ...

Breathing is coupled with voluntary initiation of mental imagery

Olaf Blanke, Oliver Alan Kannape, Hyeongdong Park

Previous research has suggested that bodily signals from internal organs are associated with diverse cortical and subcortical processes involved in sensory-motor functions, beyond homeostatic reflexes. For instance, a recent study demonstrated that the pre ...

Organohalide respiration in Firmicutes: energy metabolism and transcription regulation

Mathilde Stéphanie Willemin

Organohalides are a class of compounds often considered as persistent pollutants and harmful to environmental and human health. Some bacteria, among which are representatives from the Firmicutes phylum, are capable of using these compounds as terminal acce ...

Deep learning architectures for estimating breathing signal and respiratory parameters from speech recordings

Mathew Magimai Doss, Zohreh Mostaani, Venkata Srikanth Nallanthighal

Respiration is an essential and primary mechanism for speech production. We first inhale and then produce speech while exhaling. When we run out of breath, we stop speaking and inhale. Though this process is involuntary, speech production involves a system ...

Mechanisms of the breathing contribution to bodily self‐consciousness in healthy humans: Lessons from machine‐assisted breathing?

Olaf Blanke, Bruno Herbelin, Oliver Alan Kannape, Elisa Canzoneri, Sophie Jacqueline Andrée Betka

Previous studies investigated bodily self‐consciousness (BSC) by experimentally exposing subjects to multisensory conflicts (i.e., visuo‐tactile, audio‐tactile, visuo‐cardiac) in virtual reality (VR) that involve the participant's torso in a paradigm known ...

Homogenization of a multiscale viscoelastic model with nonlocal damping, application to the human lungs

Paul Isaac Denis Louis Marie Cazeaux

We are interested in the mathematical modeling of the deformation of the human lung tissue, called the lung parenchyma, during the respiration process. The parenchyma is a foam-like elastic material containing millions of air-filled alveoli connected by a ...

The Respiration Pattern as an Indicator of the Anaerobic Threshold

Jean-Marc Vesin, Mathieu Lemay, Leila Mirmohamadsadeghi

The anaerobic threshold (AT) is a good index of personal endurance but needs a laboratory setting to be determined. It is important to develop easy AT field measurements techniques in order to rapidly adapt training programs. In the present study, it is po ...

Molecular and cell-based therapies for muscle degenerations: a road under construction

Marco Cassano, Stefania Crippa

Despite the advances achieved in understanding the molecular biology of muscle cells in the past decades, there is still need for effective treatments of muscular degeneration caused by muscular dystrophies and for counteracting the muscle wasting caused b ...

Optimization of the treatment of hydrocephalus by the non-invasive measurement of the intra-cranial pressure

Alec Ginggen

This thesis work aims to optimize the treatment of hydrocephalus. It consists of two distinct objectives: the optimization of the diagnosis of patients implanted with a shunt system for the derivation of cerebro-spinal fluid (CSF) and the optimization of t ...
