Previous studies have shown that mental imagery is a suitable tool to study the progression of the effect of practice on brain activation. Nevertheless, there is still poor knowledge of changes in brain activation patterns during the very early stages of p ...
The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPARalpha) plays a major role in the control of cardiac energy metabolism. The role of PPARalpha on cardiac functions was evaluated by using PPARalpha knockout (PPARalpha -/-) mice. Hemodynamic paramete ...
The cardiovascular system can be macro-modelled as a collection of coupled oscillators. Recently, the use of mutual couplings of these oscillators to characterize the state of the system during anaesthesia has been proposed. Assuming that the synchronizati ...
In this thesis we study ventricular-arterial coupling in rodents under the influence of arterial stiffening and myocardial infarction (MI), combination of the two considered as a novel cardiovascular research model for diseased hearts pumping against an ag ...

Recent evidence suggests that the heart possesses a greater regeneration capacity than previously thought. In the present study, we isolated undifferentiated precursors from the cardiac nonmyocyte cell population of neonatal hearts, expanded them in cultur ...
In this work we present a mathematical model for the coupling of cardiovascular system and metabolism under sport efforts. Effects such as oxygenation, heart rates, flow rates, blood pressure and mass transfer to tissues will be considered. A special atten ...
The present invention aims at synthesizing superposition images formed either by band moire shapes or by shape level lines for making the information forwarded by valuable articles or by time pieces such as watches and clocks more dynamic, as well as for i ...
The vitamin D(3) and nicotine (VDN) model is a model of isolated systolic hypertension (ISH) due to arterial calcification raising arterial stiffness and vascular impedance similar to an aged and stiffened arterial tree. We therefore analyzed the impact of ...
Atrial arrhythmias are the most frequent rhythm disorders in humans and often lead to severe complications such as heart failure and stroke. While different mapping techniques have provided significant information on the electrophysiological processes asso ...
