System for micturition control in a mammal with bladder disfunction
Grégoire Courtine, Jocelyne Bloch, Jordan Squair
The present invention relates to a neuromodulation/neurostimulation system (10) for stimulating at least one neuronal circuitry responsible for micturition control in a mammal with bladder disfunction, especially for bladder relaxation and/or for bladder v ...
2024Decoding bladder state from pudendal intraneural signals in pigs
Silvestro Micera, Stéphanie Lacour, Leonardo Pollina, Ivo Strauss, Valentina Marie Paggi
Neuroprosthetic devices used for the treatment of lower urinary tract dysfunction, such as incontinence or urinary retention, apply a pre-set continuous, open-loop stimulation paradigm, which can cause voiding dysfunctions due to neural adaptation. In the ...
2023Design and Prototype an artificial urethra
The human urethra is a complex tubular organ that allows to empty urine from the urinary bladder. Due to its hyperelastic properties and heterogeneous composition, the design of an artificial urethra (AU) is a real engineering challenge. Within the Center ...
2023Associations between urinary biomarkers of oxidative stress and biomarkers of tobacco smoke exposure in smokers
Florian Frédéric Vincent Breider, Dominique Grandjean, Nicolas Sambiagio
Oxidative stress can contribute to the development of diseases, and may originate from exposures to toxicants commonly found in air pollution and cigarette smoke such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Yet, as ...
Elsevier2022Development of a biologically inspired in-vitro platform for long-term assessment of commercial and innovative ureteral stents
Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Francesco Clavica
Ureteral stents are small flexible tubes which are clinically used to restore the urine drainage in presence of obstructions of the ureteral lumen such as tumours, kidney/ureteral stones. The lifetime risk of developing urinary stones is about 20% in men a ...
