Ventricular response regularity in atrial fibrillation and its relationship to successful catheter ablation

Jean-Marc Vesin, Etienne Pruvot, Adrian Luca

Atrial rate is known to modulate ventricular response during atrial fibrillation (AF). The resulting pulse irregularity translates into widely varying inter-beat intervals (IBIs) extracted from recorded surface electrocardiogram (ECG) activity. In AF, the ...

A Proof of Concept for Computational Fluid Dynamic Analysis of the Left Atrium in Atrial Fibrillation on a Patient-Specific Basis

Alfio Quarteroni, Davide Forti, Filippo Menghini

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with a fivefold increase in the risk of cerebrovascular events, being responsible of 15-18% of all strokes. The morphological and functional remodeling of the left atrium (LA) caused by AF favors blood stasis and, con ...

Template-assisted electrodeposition of nickel and nickel copper 3D microcomponents

Patrik Schürch

New types of metamaterials and architectured material require metallic materials with precise structural design in the microscale. However, additivemanufacturing of metallic structures in themicroscale has proven difficult, as the demand for the material q ...

Vertical Ionization Energies and Electron Affinities of Native and Damaged DNA Bases, Nucleotides, and Pairs from Density Functional Theory Calculations: Model Assessment and Implications for DNA Damage Recognition and Repair

Ursula Röthlisberger, Ivano Tavernelli, Polydefkis Diamantis

To assess the effect of an 8-oxoguanine (8OG) defect base on the vertical ionization energies (VIEs) and electron affinities (VEAs) of DNA, density functional theory calculations were carried out for native and defect DNA bases and nucleotides, as well as ...

Template-assisted grown III-V semiconductor nanowires: A transmission electron microscopy study

Nicolas Bologna

III-V semiconductor nanowires are, due to their unique properties, one of the most promising nanostructures developed in the last decades. However, the realization of commercial devices made of III-V nanowires, such as transistors and solar cells, has not ...

Spinning operators and defects in conformal field theory

Marco Meineri

We study the kinematics of correlation functions of local and extended operators in a conformal field theory. We present a new method for constructing the tensor structures associated to primary operators in an arbitrary bosonic representation of the Loren ...

Self-consistent site-dependent DFT plus U study of stoichiometric and defective SrMnO3

Nicola Marzari, Iurii Timrov, Matteo Cococcioni, Ulrich Aschauer

We propose a self-consistent site-dependent Hubbard U approach for density functional theory (DFT)+U calculations of defects in complex transition metal oxides, using Hubbard parameters computed via linear response theory. The formation of a defect locally ...

Increasing N content in GaNAsP nanowires suppresses the impact of polytypism on luminescence

Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Luca Francaviglia

Cathodoluminescence (CL) and micro-photoluminescence spectroscopies are employed to investigate effects of structural defects on carrier recombination in GaNAsP nanowires (NWs) grown by molecular beam epitaxy on Si substrates. In the NWs with a low N conte ...

Severe and uniform bi-atrial remodeling measured by dominant frequency analysis in persistent atrial fibrillation unresponsive to ablation

Jean-Marc Vesin, Etienne Pruvot, Andréa Buttu, Adrian Luca

Background High values of ECG and intracardiac dominant frequency (DF) are indicative of significant atrial remodeling in persistent atrial fibrillation (peAF). We hypothesized that patients with peAF unresponsive to ablation display higher ECG and intraca ...

Mutations in Bcl9 and Pygo genes cause congenital heart defects by tissue-specific perturbation of Wnt/beta-catenin signaling

Michel Aguet

Bcl9 and Pygopus (Pygo) are obligate Wnt/beta-catenin cofactors in Drosophila, yet their contribution to Wnt signaling during vertebrate development remains unresolved. Combining zebrafish and mouse genetics, we document a conserved, beta-catenin-associate ...

Universality at large transverse spin in defect CFT

Marco Meineri

We study the spectrum of local operators living on a defect in a generic conformal field theory, and their coupling to the local bulk operators. We establish the existence of universal accumulation points in the spectrum at large s, s being the charge of t ...

Atomistic Simulations of The Structure of Calcium Silicate Hydrates: Interlayer Positions, Water Content And A General Structural Brick Model

Aslam Kunhi Mohamed

Portland cement has been in use by human civilization for over a century. Yet, we do not fully understand its hydration reaction mechanisms due to the complexity of the system and its continued reaction over time making it hard to study it experimentally. ...
