Gastric insufflation during cardiopulmonary resuscitation: A study in human cadavers

Arnaud Loïc Roger Lesimple

Introduction: Bag-valve-mask ventilation is the first-line ventilation method during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Risks include excessive volume delivery and gastric insufflation, the latter increasing the risk of pneumonia. The efficacy of ventila ...

Reducing Humidity Response of Gas Sensors for Medical Applications: Use of Spark Discharge Synthesis of Metal Oxide Nanoparticles

Thomas Maeder

The application of gas sensors in breath analysis is an important trend in the early diagnostics of different diseases including lung cancer, ulcers, and enteric infection. However, traditional methods of synthesis of metal oxide gas-sensing materials for ...

Pediatric Size Swallowable Glass Pill for Digestive Motility Analysis

Catherine Dehollain, Vincent Schlageter, Onur Kazanç, Jose Luis Merino Panadés

A glass pill for digestive motility tracking with wireless communication is presented. The pill encapsulates three magnetic transmitter coils with a 125 kHz signal, the circuitry required to control the magnetic coil output and the battery. The system prov ...

Anatomy and Physiology of the Digestive Tract of Drosophila melanogaster

Bruno Lemaitre

The gastrointestinal tract has recently come to the forefront of multiple research fields. It is now recognized as a major source of signals modulating food intake, insulin secretion and energy balance. It is also a key player in immunity and, through its ...

System, method and apparatus for retinal absorption phase and dark field imaging with oblique illumination

Christophe Moser, Timothé Laforest, Mathieu Künzi, Dino Carpentras

A method for imaging a tissue of an eye, the method including the steps of providing oblique illumination to the eye by a plurality of light emitting areas of a light delivery device, the plurality of light emitting areas being independently controllable a ...

Geometric Mixing, Peristalsis, and the Geometric Phase of the Stomach

Nicolas Piro Mastracchio

Mixing fluid in a container at low Reynolds number-in an inertialess environment-is not a trivial task. Reciprocating motions merely lead to cycles of mixing and unmixing, so continuous rotation, as used in many technological applications, would appear to ...

Anti-Obesity and Anti-Hyperglycemic Effects of Cinnamaldehyde via altered Ghrelin Secretion and Functional impact on Food Intake and Gastric Emptying

Henry Markram, Julie Meystre, Maurizio Ferdinando Pezzoli, Johannes Le Coutre

Cinnamon extract is associated to different health benefits but the active ingredients or pathways are unknown. Cinnamaldehyde (CIN) imparts the characteristic flavor to cinnamon and is known to be the main agonist of transient receptor potential-ankyrin r ...

The Receptor TGR5 Mediates the Prokinetic Actions of Intestinal Bile Acids and Is Required for Normal Defecation in Mice

Kristina Schoonjans

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Abnormal delivery of bile acids (BAs) to the colon as a result of disease or therapy causes constipation or diarrhea by unknown mechanisms. The G protein-coupled BA receptor TGR5 (or GPBAR1) is expressed by enteric neurons and endocrine ...

Ductal cells of the pancreas

Anne Grapin-Botton

Ductal cells of the pancreas form the epithelial lining of the branched tubes that deliver enzymes produced by pancreatic acinar cells into the duodenum. In addition, these cells secrete bicarbonate that neutralizes stomach acidity. During development, epi ...

Optical spectral probing for epithelial tissue characterisation

Philippe Thueler

In this thesis, a new method has been developed, which determines the optical coefficients spectra (absorption and scattering) of small volumes of tissue (1 mm3) by the measurement of spatially resolved reflectance between 480 and 950 nm. Firstly, an algor ...
