Abstract: A method for determining the operating state of a light-emitting implant implanted in the brain of a living being, the light-emitting implant including a light source responsible for emitting light into the brain of the living being, the method using a diagnosing device that includes a receiver of a light signal transmitted through a first eye of the living being and a device for determining the operating state of the light-emitting implant based on the received transmitted light signal.

Abstract: A compound of general formula (III?), or one of its pharmaceutically acceptable salts, for its use for the treatment of hemophilia in a subject, in particular for the restoration of coagulation in the plasma of a subject suffering from hemophilia, this compound being advantageously administered by oral route:

Abstract: A device intended to be implanted in a human or animal body, in order to produce hydrogen in situ from molecules present in the body medium in which the device is implanted, this device having an anode and a cathode, which are each electrically connected to a pole of an electrical energy source, and having a semi-permeable material separating the electrodes from the body medium, in which device, when the connection to the electrical energy source is effective in situ, in the presence of body fluid, a closed electrical circuit is formed, with production of hydrogen at the cathode, the semi-permeable material having a cutoff threshold of between 50 and 500 Da.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for cooling an organ locally, that includes an elongate stem including a far end intended to make contact with an organ to be cooled and comprising including a cooling element having a cold finger, a crystal that has a capacity to cool via excitation at a set excitation wavelength, said crystal being positioned adjacent to said cooling element, an optical guide that is able to convey a light signal at said excitation wavelength and that opens onto said crystal, and an illuminating system including at least one light source, which light source is arranged to emit said light signal.

Abstract: The invention relates to an implantable device suitable for being fixed in a fixation position to a wall of a patient's stomach, the implantable device being accommodated in the stomach when the implantable device is in the fixation position, the implantable device being characterised in that it comprises a reserve of an active substance and an injector suitable for administering the active substance to the patient.

Abstract: A probe intended to be at least partially implanted in a living being, with a view to locally cooling at least one region of the living being, this probe notably including a cooling member present at its distal end, which member is intended to make contact with the region to be cooled, and a thermoelectric cooling module including a cold region making contact with the cooling member.

Abstract: The present disclosure is related to a live-attenuated strain of Pseudomonas for its use as a vaccine, and for use in a method for preventive immunizing and for treating Pseudomonas infection, in particular in patients suffering from cystic fibrosis. Preferably, the live-attenuated strain of Pseudomonas is furthermore treated to become ‘killed but metabolically active’.

Abstract: The invention relates to anti-Tau nanobodies.

Abstract: A minimally invasive system for dynamic correction of a spinal deformity in patients includes: a flat ligament made of synthetic material, a plurality of staples intended to be anchored on a respective vertebral body of the patient to hold the ligament against each vertebral body, and a device for mechanically tensioning the ligament.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for the in vitro detection of strains of Legionella pneumophila, resistant to antibiotics, in particular to the fluoroquinolones. Also disclosed are nucleotide probes and a kit of reagents allowing the detection of Legionella pneumophila bacterial strains that are resistant to antibiotics, in particular of the fluoroquinolone type.

Abstract: Radiographic imaging system including: an x-ray transmission unit; an x-ray receiver unit; a plate made from a material opaque to x-rays and situated between the transmission unit and the receiver unit, the plate including at least four channels, each channel enabling a part of the x-rays emitted by the transmission unit to pass through the channel; and an image processing unit configured to determine the coordinates of the projected patterns and to calculate a position of the receiver unit from the coordinates of the projected patterns and from the coordinates of the channels.
