Background Kidney diseases are a recognized cause of posterior reversible leukoencephalopathy syndrome, usually abbreviated as PRES. The purpose of this review was to systematically address the association between acute postinfectious glomerulonephritis and PRES. Methods We performed a systematic review of the literature on acute postinfectious glomerulonephritis associated with PRES. The...

Enhancing multi-scale cardiac simulations by coupling electrophysiology and mechanics : a flexible high performance approach to cardiac electromechanics

Pozzi, Sonia ; Krause, Rolf (Dir.)

Thèse de doctorat : Università della Svizzera italiana, 2019 ; 2019INFO005.

This work focuses on the development of computational methods for the simulation of the propagation of the electrical potential in the heart and of the resulting mechanical contraction. The interaction of these two physical phenomena is described by an electromechanical model which consists of the monodomain system, which describes the propagation of the action potential in the cardiac tissue,...

In: Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease, 2018, vol. 92, no. 2, p. 90–94

The commercial Rapid Polymyxin NP test was evaluated to detect colistin-resistant Enterobacteriaceae. A total of 223 enterobacterial isolates corresponding to 136 resistant (including 38 MCR-like producers), 19 heteroresistant, and 78 colistin- susceptible isolates were tested. The test was performed according to the manufacturer's instruction, and the color of the wells was read after 2 and 3...
