Sensor could significantly improve the cardiac electrotherapy. It has to provide longterm stabile signal not impeding the device longevity and lead reliability. It may not introduce special implantation and adjustment procedures. Hemodynamic sensors based on the blood flow velocity and cardiomechanic sensors based on the lead bending measurement are disclosed. These sensors have a broad clinica...

The use of electricity in medicine is not new. Clinicians used it over 150 years ago to treat nonunion bone fractures. Electomedicine and nutrition, abandoned early in this century, have been recently revived. Most physicians are unaware of their therapeutic benefits. Electrotherapy, especially micro current electrical therapy (MET) is useful for a variety of clinical conditions. Indeed, it may...

L’enjeu est capital car d’une part, la quasi-totalité de l’information créée, gérée, transmise, stockée dans notre société l'est aujourd’hui sous forme numérique et d’autre part, la force probante reconnue par la loi à l’écrit électronique, va permettre de se passer entièrement du support papier.. Ne pas être en mesure de préserver convenablement et durablement cette information conduirait à un...

Cette application, sans prendre parti, aborde le sujet délicat qu’est l’automatisation cognitive. Elle propose la mise en place d’une chaîne informatique complète pour supporter chacune des étapes de la décision, en particulier la phase d’apprentissage en faisant de la connaissance actionnable (CA) une entité informatique manipulable par des algorithmes. La connaissance est extraite directement...

Several molecular mechanisms are involved in melanoma genesis and progression. Molecular targets for effective therapeutic intervention have been identified within the RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK and, to a less extent, PI3K-AKT pathways. The development of inhibitors of key effectors (mainly BRAF mutant, MEK, and KIT) into such pathways has significantly improved the treatment of patients with advanced mel...

ABSTRACT Acne, of great prevalence and impact, presents many forms that can be treated by hygiene, topical medications, manual alternative interventions such as skin cleansing electrotherapy. The use radiofrequency in the treatment acne aims to increase temperature cutaneous tissue, causing several metabolic structural reactions, stimulating neocollagenesis. This study aimed investigate high-fr...

In recent years, the usefulness of infrared thermography (IRT) as a valuable supplementary imaging method in medical diagnostics, well for assessing effects treatment musculoskeletal injuries, has been increasingly confirmed. At same time, great importance is attached to standards thermographic research, fulfillment which determines correct methodology and interpretation results. This article d...
