Gestational age-specific reference ranges for amniotic fluid assessment in monochorionic diamniotic twin pregnancies
Philip DeKoninck,Jan Deprest,Paul Lewi,Jute Richter,Sander Galjaard,J. Van Keirsbilck,K. Van Calsteren,Liesbeth Lewi +7 more
TL;DR: To establish gestational age‐specific reference ranges for amniotic fluid measurements in monochorionic diamniotic twin pregnancies, to compare them with previously reported singleton and twin reference ranges, and to examine the rationale for using a gestual age‐dependent cut‐off to define polyhydramnios in twin–twin transfusion syndrome, are examined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Up-regulation in Human Amniotic Fluid Stem Cell Enhances Nephroprotection After Ischemia-reperfusion Injury in the Rat
Marina Gabriela Monteiro Carvalho Mori da Cunha,Silvia Zia,Diego Vilibaldo Beckmann,Marianne Carlon,Fanny Oliveira Arcolino,Maarten Albersen,Ney Luis Pippi,Dominguita Lühers Graça,Conny Gysemans,Peter Carmeliet,Elena Levtchenko,Jan Deprest,Jaan Toelen +12 more
TL;DR: Up-regulation of vascular endothelial growth factor enhances the therapeutic effect of human amniotic fluid stem cells in rats with renal ischemia-reperfusion injury, mainly by mitogenic, angiogenic, and anti-inflammatory mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental comparison of abdominal wall repair using different methods of enhancement by small intestinal submucosa graft
Yves Ozog,Maja Konstantinovic,Sofie Verschueren,Federico Spelzini,Dirk De Ridder,Jan Deprest +5 more
TL;DR: The Native group was more resistant than both small intestine submucosa (SIS) groups with a more organized fibrotic scar on histology at 90 days, and replacement of abdominal wall by SIS is equally strong when compared to the SIS-augmented group; however, materials preferably rupture at the site of the implant itself.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fetal surgical intervention for myelomeningocele: lessons learned, outcomes, and future implications.
TL;DR: A review of the rationale for fMMC surgery based on preclinical studies and observations that laid the foundation for human pilot studies and a randomized controlled trial and discusses the feasibility, efficacy, and safety of recent developments in fetal surgical techniques and approaches.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Fluidic actuation for intra-operative in situ imaging
Alain Devreker,Benoit Rosa,Adrien E. Desjardins,Erwin J. Alles,L.C. Garcia-Peraza,Efthymios Maneas,Danail Stoyanov,Anna L. David,Tom Vercauteren,Jan Deprest,Sebastien Ourselin,Dominiek Reynaerts,E. Vander Poorten +12 more
TL;DR: A novel fluidic actuation system for in situ imaging of anatomic tissues consisting of a micromachined superelastic tool guide driven by a pair of pneumatic artificial muscles and an all-optical ultrasound imaging probe is developed.
