Total arterial compliance, estimated by a novel method, is better related to left ventricular mass compared to aortic pulse wave velocity: The SAFAR study

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos

Aim: The investigation of the association between total arterial compliance (C-T)-estimated by a novel technique-with left ventricular mass (LVM) and hypertrophy (LVH). Our hypothesis was that C-T may be better related to LVM compared to the gold-standard ...

Non-invasive hemodynamic monitoring by electrical impedance tomography

Martin Proença

The monitoring of central hemodynamic parameters such as cardiac output (CO) and pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) is of paramount clinical importance to assess the health status of the cardiovascular system. However, their measurement requires the insertion ...

Shear stress alterations in the celiac trunk of patients with a continuous-flow left ventricular assist device as shown by in-silico and in-vitro flow analyses

Alfio Quarteroni, Christian Vergara

BACKGROUND: The use of left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) to treat advanced cardiac heart failure is constantly increasing, although this device leads to high risk for gastrointestinal bleeding. METHODS: Using in-silico flow analysis, we quantified he ...

Social isolation stress and chronic glutathione deficiency have a common effect on the glutamine-to-glutamate ratio and myo-inositol concentration in the mouse frontal cortex

João Miguel das Neves Duarte, Rolf Gruetter, Alberto Corcoba

Environmental stress can interact with genetic predisposition to increase the risk of developing psychopathology. In this work, we tested the hypothesis that social isolation stress interacts with impaired glutathione synthesis and have cumulative effects ...

Contribution of the Arterial System and the Heart to Blood Pressure during Normal Aging - A Simulation Study

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos

During aging, systolic blood pressure continuously increases over time, whereas diastolic pressure first increases and then slightly decreases after middle age. These pressure changes are usually explained by changes of the arterial system alone (increase ...

Modelling of a Dielectric Electroactive Polymer Tubular Shape Sensor for Pressure Measurements

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Jonathan André Jean-Marie Chavanne

The variation of pressure of the blood is a key parameter in the development of ventricular assist device. This latter is useful in order to synchronize the behavior of the actuator with the cardiac frequency. This paper presents a sensor made of a dielect ...

Influence of heart motion on cardiac output estimation by means of electrical impedance tomography: a case study

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Mathieu Lemay, Fabian Braun, Martin Proença, Michaël Rapin

Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a non-invasive imaging technique that can measure cardiac-related intra-thoracic impedance changes. EIT-based cardiac output estimation relies on the assumption that the amplitude of the impedance change in the vent ...

Systematic comparison of non-invasive measures for the assessment of atrial fibrillation complexity: a step forward towards standardization of atrial fibrillation electrogram analysis

Jean-Marc Vesin, Laurent Renaud Uldry, Jérôme Sébastien Van Zaen

Aims To present a comparison of electrocardiogram-based non-invasive measures of atrial fibrillation (AF) substrate complexity computed on invasive animal recordings to discriminate between short-term and long-term AF. The final objective is the selection ...

Impact of HSD11B1 polymorphisms on BMI and components of the metabolic syndrome in patients receiving psychotropic treatments

Pierre Magistretti, Murielle Bochud

Background Metabolic syndrome (MetS) associated with psychiatric disorders and psychotropic treatments represents a major health issue. 11 beta-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11 beta-HSD1) is an enzyme that catalyzes tissue regeneration of active cor ...
