Full-field in vivo experimental study of the strains of a breathing human abdominal wall with intra-abdominal pressure variation [PDF]
Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials, Volume
147, November 2023, 106148, 2023 The presented study aims to assess the mechanical behaviour of the anterior abdominal wall based on an in vivo experiment on humans. Full-field measurement of abdominal wall displacement during changes of intra-abdominal pressure is performed using a digital image correlation (DIC) system.

A novel in vivo approach to assess strains of the human abdominal wall under known intraabdominal pressure [PDF]
Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials, 125
(2022) 104902, 2021 The study concerns mechanical behaviour of a living human abdominal wall. A better mechanical understanding of a human abdominal wall and recognition of its material properties is required to find mechanically compatible surgical meshes to significantly improve the treatment of ventral hernias.

Peritoneal dialysis catheter malposition: Iatrogenic vesical perforation
APIK Journal of Internal Medicine, 2023 Despite perceived disadvantage of percutaneous continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis catheter placement compared to its surgical placement, complications are very rare if done by a trained nephrologist under fluoroscope guidance. We present a case of

Computational modelling of peritoneal dialysis: an overview [PDF]
, 2023 Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is becoming more popular as a result of a rising interest in home dialysis, lower intrusion in social life and longer preservation of residual kidney function. However, PD has several important drawbacks: small solute clearance is relatively low compared to hemodialysis and technique survival is limited.
