Chattez avec Graph Search
Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
The nucleus pulposus of the intervertebral disc is a gelatinous viscous hydrogel that has an essential role in the mechanics of the intervertebral disc joint. The viscoelastic properties of the nucleus pulposus significantly change in the course of time an ...
The intervertebral disc (IVD), which provides flexibility to the spine and facilitates damping and motion, is composed of two distinct structures: the annulus fibrosus (AF) and the nucleus pulposus (NP). The AF, which is fibrous and elastic, confines the N ...
The swelling and compressive mechanical behavior as well as the morphology and biocompatibility of composite hydrogels based on Tween® 20 trimethacrylate (T3), N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone (NVP) and nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) were assessed in the present stu ...
Low back pain is one of the most prevailing medical concerns and can often be associated with the degeneration of the intervertebral disc. This degeneration results in a loss of biological and mechanical properties, especially a loss of viscoelastic proper ...
Nowadays, the general trend towards to minimally invasive interventions is present in all the medical domains. For the surgical intervertebral spinal disc cutting or removal domain, it is particularly a necessity because the manual methods currently employ ...
Intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration is one of the prevailing medical concern and actual health cost. Industries and academic institutions research for therapeutic solutions going from drugs to complete and partial arthroplasty devices as well as enginee ...
Objective: Several cell carriers need to be selected and characterized for their compatibility with fetal cartilaginous cell survival and activity. In order to assess the in vivo regeneration capacity of fetal cartilaginous cells, these cell carriers will ...
In Europe, low back pain (LBP) affects the quality of life of up to 30% of the active population. Although the origin of LBP is not well identified and is probably not unique, epidemiological studies suggest that the severity of the disease is correlated w ...
Background - Nucleus pulposus degeneration is a very common musculo-skeletal pathology, which is in part responsible for low back pain, a pandemic medical problem. Artificial hydrogels are being investigated by research group around the world for the purpo ...
[...] Low back pain affects nearly 80% the population at least once in their lifetime. Intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration is thought to play a role in the development and onset of low back pain. The center part of the disc, the nucleus pulposus (NP), w ...
