Spatial analysis of karst conduit networks and determination of parameters controlling the speleogenesis along preferential lithostratigraphic horizons

The main objective of this thesis is to improve the understanding of the position and characteristics of karst conduits within a rock massif. Such a characterisation is an important issue in civil engineering and in hydrogeology. Today in practice dissolut ...

Brain Surface Segmentation of Magnetic Resonance Images of the Fetus

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Meritxell Bach Cuadra, Marie Schaer, Dominique Zosso, Nawal Houhou, Damien Ferrario

In this work we present a method for the image analysis of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of fetuses. Our goal is to segment the brain surface from multiple volumes (axial, coronal and sagittal acquisitions) of a fetus. To this end we propose a two-step ...

Perinatal iron deficiency predisposes the developing rat hippocampus to greater injury from mild to moderate hypoxia-ischemia

Rolf Gruetter, Ramachandra Rao

The hippocampus is injured in both hypoxia-ischemia (HI) and perinatal iron deficiency that are co-morbidities in infants of diabetic mothers and intrauterine growth restricted infants. We hypothesized that preexisting perinatal iron deficiency predisposes ...

Selective NMR measurements of homonuclear scalar couplings in isotopically enriched solids

David Lyndon Emsley, Bradley Floyd Chmelka

Scalar (J) couplings in solid-state NMR spectroscopy are sensitive to covalent through-bond interactions that make them informative structural probes for a wide range of complex materials. Until now, however, they have been generally unsuitable for use in ...

Immunocytochemical expression of monocarboxylate transporters in the human visual cortex at midgestation

Pierre Magistretti, Maxime Olivier Baud, Luc Pellerin

Lactate and the other monocarboxylates are a major energy source for the developing brain. We investigated the immunocytochemical expression of two monocarboxylate transporters, MCT1 and MCT2, in the human visual cortex between 13 and 26 post-ovulatory wee ...

Mechanical properties of the fetal ductus venosus and umbilical vein

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos

During fetal circulatory compromise, velocity pulsations in the precordial veins increase and are commonly transmitted through the ductus venosus into the umbilical vein, indicating a serious prognosis. The nature of the pulsations and their transmission i ...

Overexpression of placental leptin in diabetic pregnancy: a critical role for insulin

Johan Auwerx

Leptin, a small peptide produced by adipocytes, is implicated in an increasing number of endocrine regulations, including adiposity, satiety, puberty, and fertility. Although the factors involved in controlling maternal and fetal weight gain during pregnan ...

Structural Brain Network Reorganization and Social Cognition Related to Adverse Perinatal Condition from Infancy to Early Adolescence

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Elda Fischi Gomez

Adverse conditions during fetal life have been associated to both structural and functional changes in neurodevelopment from the neonatal period to adolescence. In this study, connectomics was used to assess the evolution of brain networks from infancy to ...
