Background: In patients with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), the amount of infarcted myocardium (infarct size) is known to be a major predictor for adverse remodeling and recurrent adverse cardiovascular events. Effective cardio-protective strategies with the aim of reducing infarct size are therefore of great interest. Local and systemic inflammation …
Following reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), a standardized rehabilitation protocol is carried out by a physiotherapist. In France, a well-established rehabilitation consensus guides the first phase of 3 months postoperatively and patient compliance is generally excellent. The next phase should allow a return to sport (RTS) following a …
People with diabetes often experience foot ulcers, which can harm their ability to move, lower their quality of life, and increase the chances of losing a limb. These diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) commonly come back (recur) even after they've healed, so it's crucial to stop them from returning to avoid …
Most rehabilitation protocols require patients to train the affected limbs with high regularity, following repetitive cycles of exercises, in order to recover mobility and strength. Nonetheless, the repetitive nature of these exercises can demotivate patients leading to less intense and committed training, if not ending with a lack of compliance …
Abstract Introduction: Autologous hamstring tendons are the most commonly used grafts in ACL reconstruction worldwide. There are several ways to prepare the graft using these tendons. One can prioritize increasing the diameter of an isolated intra-articular graft or alternatively, using one graft limb as an extra-articular reinforcement via the anterolateral …
This study looks to characterize gradients of dysfunction in the autonomic nervous system in patients with clinically diagnosed multiple sclerosis. The autonomic nervous system plays key roles in regulation of blood pressure, skin blood flow, and bladder health- all issues that individuals with multiple sclerosis typically suffer. Focusing on blood …
Prospective, single-center, non-randomized, single-cohort, post-market clinical follow-up study to confirm the safety, performance, and clinical benefits for the use of the RibFix Titan™ system implants and instrumentation) in the fusion, stabilization, and fixation of fractures in the chest wall including rib reconstructive surgical procedures, trauma, or planned osteotomies.
This study observes the effectiveness of high-precision radiation therapy using the Edge system after surgery for patients with spinal metastases. Spinal metastases can press on the spinal cord and cause pain, weakness, or paralysis. This treatment uses higher doses of radiation in fewer sessions (hypofractionated stereotactic body radiotherapy) delivered precisely …
This project focuses on motor development, muscle growth and muscle activity. Using advanced, instrumented tests such as , the link between muscles and the movement characteristics will be studied. In addition, the evolution of these neuro-biomechanical determinants during the first year of life will be investigated. The examinations are planned …
The aim of this study is to ascertain which pathways currently exist in relation to the follow up of patients with obstetric anal sphincter injury related incontinence. This is particularly important as afflicted individuals may not readily volunteer information about their symptoms and struggles and need to be safeguarded by …
