Compliance-matching vascular grafts with personalization potential

Georgios Rovas

Aortic diseases are characterized by dire prognosis and inadequate diagnosis, owing to their insidious yet lethal nature. Aortopathies, namely aortic aneurysms and dissections, along with certain congenital diseases, might necessitate surgical replacement ...

Modified pressure-cooker technique (PCT) using extra-soft Kaneka coils improves embolization of high-grade cerebral arteriovenous malformations: a technical note

Mahmut Yüksel

Endovascular embolization techniques are showing an extraordinary potential to treat patients suffering from complex neurovascular malformations. The embolization with liquid embolic agents via Onyx is a prominent approach to treat arteriovenous malformati ...

Sensor-integrated ultraflexible endovascular devices

Lucio Feo Pancaldi-Giubbini

Medical interventions in the central nervous system (CNS) are challenging due to the complexity and delicacy of the brain tissue. Techniques that do not require opening the skull would alleviate patient discomfort and increase post-operative outputs. Vesse ...

Sodium thiosulfate, a source of hydrogen sulfide, stimulates endothelial cell proliferation and neovascularization

Georges Wagnières, Jaroslava Joniová

Therapies to accelerate vascular repair are currently lacking. Pre-clinical studies suggest that hydrogen sulfide (H2S), an endogenous gasotransmitter, promotes angiogenesis. Here, we hypothesized that sodium thiosulfate (STS), a clinically relevant source ...

Development of a Transient Neural Interface for Minimally Invasive Recording and Stimulation

Adele Fanelli

Transient electronics enabling devices to safely disappear in the environment can be applied not only in green electronics, but also in bioelectronic medicine. Neural implants able to degrade harmlessly inside the body eliminate the need for removal surger ...

In situ photopolymerizable hydrogels for intracranial aneurysms treatment

Oriane Poupart

Intracranial aneurysm is a cerebrovascular disease characterized by an artery dilation in the brain. An aneurysm is prone to rupture, which causes a life-threatening subarachnoid hemorrhage. The major drawbacks of the current treatments, open surgical clip ...

Pulsatile Flow-Induced Fatigue-Resistant Photopolymerizable Hydrogels for the Treatment of Intracranial Aneurysms

Dominique Pioletti, Christophe Moser, Mahmut Selman Sakar, Andreas Schmocker, Lucio Feo Pancaldi-Giubbini, Oriane Poupart

An alternative intracranial aneurysm embolic agent is emerging in the form of hydrogels due to their ability to be injected in liquid phase and solidify in situ. Hydrogels have the ability to fill an aneurysm sac more completely compared to solid implants ...

Transient Neurovascular Interface for Minimally Invasive Neural Recording and Stimulation

Diego Ghezzi, Philippe Reymond, Laura Ferlauto, Adele Fanelli, Elodie Geneviève Zollinger

Neural interfaces are used to mitigate the burden of traumatic injuries, neurodegenerative diseases, and mental disorders. However, the transient or permanent placement of an interface in close contact with the neural tissue requires invasive surgery, pote ...

Follicular regulatory helper T cells control the response of regulatory B cells to a high-cholesterol diet

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos

Aims B cell functions in the process of atherogenesis have been investigated but several aspects remain to be clarified. ...

Early Morphofunctional Changes in AngII-Infused Mice Contribute to Regional Onset of Aortic Aneurysm and Dissection

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Bram Trachet, Goran Lovric, Lydia Aslanidou

Aortic aneurysms and dissections are silent and lethal conditions, whose pathogenesis remains incompletely understood. Although angiotensin II (AngII)-infused ApoE-/- mice have been widely used to study aortic aneurysm and dissection, early morphofunctiona ...

In vitro Implementation of Photopolymerizable Hydrogels as a Potential Treatment of Intracranial Aneurysms

Dominique Pioletti, Christophe Moser, Andreas Schmocker, Oriane Poupart

Intracranial aneurysms are increasingly being treated with endovascular therapy, namely coil embolization. Despite being minimally invasive, partial occlusion and recurrence are more frequent compared to open surgical clipping. Therefore, an alternative tr ...

The effect of the elongation of the proximal aorta on the estimation of the aortic wall distensibility

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Vasiliki Bikia, Bram Trachet, Georgios Rovas, Stamatia Zoi Pagoulatou, Mauro Ferraro

The compliance of the proximal aortic wall is a major determinant of cardiac afterload. Aortic compliance is often estimated based on cross-sectional area changes over the pulse pressure, under the assumption of a negligible longitudinal stretch during the ...

Cardiotrophin-1 Deficiency Abrogates Atherosclerosis Progression

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Rodrigo Araujo Fraga Da Silva

Cardiotrophin-1 (CT-1) is associated with cardiovascular (CV) diseases. We investigated the effect of CT-1 deficiency in the development and progression of atherosclerosis in double knockout Apoe(-/-)ct-1(-/-) mice. Apoe(-/-) C57Bl/6 or Apoe(-/-)ct-1(-/-) ...

Analysis of morphological and haemodynamical indexes in abdominal aortic aneurysms as preliminary indicators of intraluminal thrombus deposition

Alfio Quarteroni, Simone Deparis, Claudia Maria Colciago

In this paper we study the correlation between the Wall Shear Stress (WSS), a haemodynamical index derived from numerical simulations, and an new index MFA-ILT for the characterisation of intraluminal thrombus (ILT) in presence of abdominal aortic aneurysm ...

Co-localization of microstructural damage and excessive mechanical strain at aortic branches in Angiotensin-II-infused mice

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Bram Trachet, Goran Lovric, Lydia Aslanidou, Mauro Ferraro

Animal models of aortic aneurysm and dissection can enhance our limited understanding of the etiology of these lethal conditions particularly because early-stage longitudinal data are scant in humans. Yet, the pathogenesis of often-studied mouse models and ...

Neurovascular stent artifacts in 3D-TOF and 3D-PCMRI: Influence of stent design on flow measurement

Mohamed Farhat, Pierre Bouillot

Purpose: The morphological and hemodynamic evaluations of neurovascular diseases treated with stents would benefit from noninvasive imaging techniques such as 3D time-of-flight MRI (3D-TOF) and 3D phase contrast MRI (3D-PCMRI). For this purpose, a comprehe ...
