A new implantable device for telemetric control of pulmonary blood flow

The main problem encountered in pulmonary artery banding is the difficulty in determining the optimal perimeter of the band, and sometime repeated surgical operations are required to adjust the band perimeter in order to control the pulmonary blood flow. T ...

SOST expression is restricted to the great arteries during embryonic and neonatal cardiovascular development

Michel Aguet

Spatial-temporal regulation of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) and Wnt activity is essential for normal cardiovascular development, and altered activity of these growth factors causes maldevelopment of the cardiac outflow tract and great arteries. In the ...

Heterogeneous domain decomposition methods for fluid-structure interaction problems

Alfio Quarteroni, Simone Deparis, Gilles Fourestey, Marco Discacciati

In this note, we propose Steklov-Poincaré iterative algorithms (mutuated from the analogy with heterogeneous domain decomposition) to solve fluidstructure interaction problems. Although our framework is very general, the driving application is concerned wi ...

The effect of a myocardial infarction on the normalized time-varying elastance curve

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Rafaela Fernandes Da Silva, David Jegger

It has been suggested that the shape of the normalized time-varying elastance curve [E(n)(t(n))] is conserved in different cardiac pathologies. We hypothesize, however, that the E(n)(t(n)) differs quantitatively after myocardial infarction (MI). Sprague-Da ...

Plaque-prone hemodynamics impair endothelial function in pig carotid arteries

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Sylvain Roy, Paolo Silacci, Veronica Gambillara

Hemodynamic forces play an active role in vascular pathologies, particularly in relation to the localization of atherosclerotic lesions. It has been established that low shear stress combined with cyclic reversal of flow direction (oscillatory shear stress ...

Effects of arterial wall stress on vasomotion

Jean-Jacques Meister, Roger Sauser, Jean-Louis Bény, Michèle Koenigsberger

Smooth muscle and endothelial cells in the arterial wall are exposed to mechanical stress. Indeed blood flow induces intraluminal pressure variations and shear stress. An increase in pressure may induce a vessel contraction, a phenomenon known as the myoge ...

Biomechanical properties of decellularized porcine common carotid arteries

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Sylvain Roy, Paolo Silacci

To analyze the effects of decellularization on the biomechanical properties of porcine common carotid arteries, decellularization was performed by a detergent-enzymatic procedure that preserves extracellular matrix scaffold. Internal diameter, external dia ...

Effect of intimal shear and cyclic strech on arterial segments perfused in vitro

Veronica Gambillara

Hemodynamics have crucial role in the control of vascular tone, in the regulation of arterial remodeling, and in the production of mediators that maintain arterial function. Changes in hemodynamics forces induce profound alterations in vascular cell metabo ...

Functional, mechanical and geometrical adaptation of the arterial wall of a non-axisymmetric artery in vitro

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Paolo Silacci, Martin Zulliger

Vascular remodeling is an adaptive response to variations in the hemodynamic environment acting on the arterial wall. Remodeling translates into changes of structure, geometry and mechanical properties of the artery. Our aim was to study the remodeling res ...

Implant with deflector for intravascular dilation

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos

An intravascular dilator includes a central body acting as deflector o the blood flow to increase the value of shear stress to the artery wall. Flexible spires soldered to the deflector are radially extensible from a first diameter substantially equal to t ...
