The Revolution in Heart Valve Therapy: Focus on Novel Imaging Techniques in Intra-Procedural Guidance
2021
Transcatheter valvular interventions have undergone significant progress over the last years with novel treatment options in even complex valvular conditions. In conjunction with this development, ...

Burned to the Bone
2017
A burn-related injury that had worsened over time was compatible upon radioclinical examination with severe psoriatic arthritis (PsA), but was missing several essential characteristics of that disorder. A 58-year-old woman with no personal or family history of rheumatic diseases consulted for hand arthralgia. Her medical history was marked by severe burns to 80% of her body, sparing the face and the back, following a gas explosion 20 years earlier. …
Can Avatar Appearance Influence Physical Activity? User-Avatar Similarity and Proteus Effects on Cardiac Frequency and Step Counts
2020
This study combined user-avatar similarity and Proteus effect predictions to incentivize physical activity. 305 participants ran while wearing accelerometers and a heart rate monitor. They were randomly assigned to onscreen motion-capturing avatars displaying either participant or stranger faces dressed in sports or formal clothes. Participants assigned to avatars displaying their own face showed increased cardiac frequency compared with those exposed to avatars with a stranger's face. Relative to the remaining conditions, participants assigned to avatars with their own face also wearing sports clothes showed increased cardiac frequency but participants assigned to avatars with a stranger's…
0126: New regulators of iron metabolism, Hepcidin and Erythroferrone, in acute myocardial infarction.
2016
Background Dysfunctional iron storage and transport are common in patients with chronic heart failure and associated with poor prognosis. Body iron could contribute to the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease (CAD) through its ability to induce oxidative stress. However, studies on the relationship between iron metabolism and CAD have yielded conflicting results. Patients and Methods From the obseRvatoire des Infarctus de Cote d’Or (RICO) survey, 31 consecutive patients admitted in Intensive Care Unit for a first AMI were included. Serum concentrations of iron, transferrin, ferritin, the iron-regulatory hormone hepcidin and erythroferrone (a new hepcidin-regulating hormone), transferrin …
Cognitive benefits of exercise interventions: an fMRI activation likelihood estimation meta-analysis.
2021
Despite a growing number of functional MRI studies reporting exercise-induced changes during cognitive processing, a systematic determination of the underlying neurobiological pathways is currently lacking. To this end, our neuroimaging meta-analysis included 20 studies and investigated the influence of physical exercise on cognition-related functional brain activation. The overall meta-analysis encompassing all experiments revealed physical exercise-induced changes in the left parietal lobe during cognitive processing. Subgroup analysis further revealed that in the younger-age group (< 35 years old) physical exercise induced more widespread changes in the right hemisphere, whereas in th…

Multidimensional Optical Sensing and Imaging Systems (MOSIS): From Macro to Micro Scales
2017
Multidimensional optical imaging systems for information processing and visualization technologies have numerous applications in fields such as manufacturing, medical sciences, entertainment, robotics, surveillance, and defense. Among different three-dimensional (3-D) imaging methods, integral imaging is a promising multiperspective sensing and display technique. Compared with other 3-D imaging techniques, integral imaging can capture a scene using an incoherent light source and generate real 3-D images for observation without any special viewing devices. This review paper describes passive multidimensional imaging systems combined with different integral imaging configurations. One example…
Mobile platform for online processing of multimodal skin optical images: Using online Matlab server for processing remission, fluorescence and laser …
2015
Mobile platform for multimodal skin assessment has been developed. Different illumination sources allow switching between modalities. Diffuse reflectance spectral imaging is provided by five LEDs, fluorescence is excited by 405 nm LEDs, and laser speckle by 650 nm laser diode. Handheld, battery powered device includes all light sources and color camera with USB. The core of the system is Linux OS embedded microcontroller. USB, FTP and HTML with JavaScript combination is used to create standard image transfer and control interface. In combination with built in WiFi access point it allows online skin images storage and processing. It means that data processing algorithms are located and updat…
