Contribution of Left and Right Atrial Appendage Activities to ECG Fibrillation Waves

Jean-Marc Vesin, Andréa Buttu, Etienne Pruvot

It was recently shown that atrial fibrillation (AF) waves on chest lead V1 adequately reflect right atrial appendage (RAA) activity during long standing persistent AF (pers-AF). The contribution of the left atrial (LA) activity to chest leads AF waves, how ...

Systemic inflammation disrupts the developmental program of white matter

Yohan Van de Looij, Elie Saliba

Perinatal inflammation is a major risk factor for neurological deficits in preterm infants. Several experimental studies have shown that systemic inflammation can alter the programming of the developing brain. However, these studies do not offer detailed p ...

Capillary Microfluidic Chips for Point-of-Care Testing

Luc Gervais

Research on microfluidic devices for biological analysis has progressed sufficiently to be developed into point-of-care diagnostics products. The goal of this thesis is to improve multiple aspects of capillary-driven microfluidic devices. In particular, th ...

Calorie Restriction-like Effects of 30 Days of Resveratrol Supplementation on Energy Metabolism and Metabolic Profile in Obese Humans

Johan Auwerx, Richardus Houtkooper, Dongryeol Ryu

Resveratrol is a natural compound that affects energy metabolism and mitochondrial function and serves as a calorie restriction mimetic, at least in animal models of obesity. Here, we treated 11 healthy, obese men with placebo and 150 mg/day resveratrol (r ...

A multiresolution space-time adaptive scheme for the bidomain model in electrocardiology

Ricardo Esteban Ruiz Baier

The bidomain model of electrical activity of myocardial tissue consists of a possibly degenerate parabolic PDE coupled with an elliptic PDE for the transmembrane and extracellular potentials, respectively. This system of two scalar PDEs is supplemented by ...

Isolation and characterisation of a porcine cardiac adherent cell population from heart biopsies

Christelle Hasselmann

Cardiac diseases represent the major cause of mortality in the Western world. The discovery of the promising human Cardiac Adherent Proliferating (CAP) cells for a potential cardiac cell therapy by the Tissue Engineering group induced the need of a reliabl ...

Caractérisation de la génération et la propagation d'ondes de pressions dans des tissus biologiques pour la conception d'appareils médicaux

Mathieu Benoit

Therapies using so called extracorporeal shock waves (Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy ESWT) have become current medical practice in orthopedy and traumatology. In order to understand and to optimize the effect of shock waves in clinical applications, med ...

Data processing techniques for the characterization of atrial fibrillation

Mathieu Lemay

Atrial fibrillation is the most common sustained cardiac rhythm disturbance, increasing in prevalence with age. During the past 20 years, there has been a 66% increase in hospital admissions related to atrial fibrillation. Neither the natural history of at ...

Conductance catheter-based assessment of arterial input impedance, arterial function, and ventricular-vascular interaction in mice

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Patrick Segers, Nico Westerhof

Global assessment of both cardiac and arterial function is important for a meaningful interpretation of pathophysiological changes in animal models of cardiovascular disease. We simultaneously acquired left ventricular (LV) and aortic pressure and LV volum ...

Symptomatic postictal cardiac asystole in a young patient with partial seizures

Olaf Blanke

This report describes a patient with complex partial seizures arising from the right temporal lobe who developed symptomatic sinus arrest following the end of his seizure activity. A ventricular pacemaker was implanted and was documented to function approp ...
