- source_sentence: Physical Behavior Profiles Among Older Adults and Their Associations
With Physical Capacity and Life-Space Mobility.
sentences:
- Injectable hydrogel-based materials have emerged as promising alendronate (ALN)
delivery systems for the treatment of osteoporosis. However, their intrinsic permeability
limits the sustained delivery of small-molecule drugs. In response to this challenge,
we present the multifunctional hybrids composed of mesoporous silica particles
decorated with hydroxyapatite and loaded with alendronate (MSP-NH2-HAp-ALN), which
are immobilized in collagen/chitosan/hyaluronic acid-based hydrogel. We have mainly
focused on the biological in vitro/ex vivo evaluation of developed composites.
It was found that the extracts released from tested systems do not exhibit hemolytic
properties and are safe for blood elements and the human liver cell model. The
resulting materials create an environment conducive to differentiating human bone
marrow mesenchymal stem cells and reduce the viability of osteoclast precursors
(RAW 264.7). Importantly, even the system with the lowest concentration of ALN
caused a substantial cytotoxic effect on RAW 264.7 cells; their viability decreased
to 20 % and 10 % of control on 3 and 7 day of culture. Additionally, prolonged
ALN release (up to 20 days) with minimized burst release was observed, while material
features (wettability, swellability, degradation, mechanical properties) depended
on MSP-NH2-HAp-ALN content. The obtained data indicate that developed composites
establish a high-potential formulation for safe and effective osteoporosis therapy.
- 'We identified data-driven multidimensional physical activity (PA) profiles using
several novel accelerometer-derived metrics. Participants aged 75, 80, and 85
(n = 441) wore triaxial accelerometers for 3-7 days. PA profiles were formed with
k-means cluster analysis based on PA minutes, intensity, fragmentation, sit-to-stand
transitions, and gait bouts for men and women. Associations with physical capacity
and life-space mobility were examined using age-adjusted general linear models.
Three profiles emerged: "Exercisers" and "actives" accumulated relatively high
PA minutes, with actives engaging in lighter intensity PA. "Inactives" had the
highest activity fragmentation and lowest PA volume, intensity, and gait bouts.
Inactives showed lower scores in physical capacity and life-space mobility compared
with exercisers and actives. Exercisers and actives had similar physical capacity
and life-space mobility, except female exercisers had higher walking speed in
the 6-min walk test. Our findings demonstrate the importance of assessing PA as
multidimensional behavior rather than focusing on a single metric.'
- 'Existing exoskeletons for pediatric gait assistance have limitations in anthropometric
design, structure weight, cost, user safety features, and adaptability to diverse
users. Additionally, creating precise models for pediatric rehabilitation is difficult
because the rapid anthropometric changes in children result in unknown model parameters.
Furthermore, external disruptions, like unpredictable movements and involuntary
muscle contractions, add complexity to the control schemes that need to be managed.
To overcome these limitations, this study aims to develop an affordable stand-aided
lower-limb exoskeleton specifically for pediatric subjects (8-12 years, 25-40
kg, 128-132 cm) in passive-assist mode. The authors modified a previously developed
model (LLESv1) for improved rigidity, reduced mass, simplified motor arrangement,
variable waist size, and enhanced mobility. A computer-aided design of the new
exoskeleton system (LLESv2) is presented. The developed prototype of the exoskeleton
appended with a pediatric subject (age: 12 years old, body mass: 40 kg, body height:
132 cm) is presented with real-time hardware architecture. Thereafter, an improved
fast non-singular terminal sliding mode (IFNSTSM) control scheme is proposed,
incorporating a double exponential reaching law for expedited error convergence
and enhanced stability. The Lyapunov stability warrants the control system''s
performance despite uncertainties and disturbances. In contrast to fast non-singular
terminal sliding mode (FNSTSM) control and time-scaling sliding mode (TSSM) control,
experimental validation demonstrates the effectiveness of IFNSTSM control by a
respective average of 5.39% and 42.1% in tracking desired joint trajectories with
minimal and rapid finite time converging errors. Moreover, the exoskeleton with
the proposed IFNSTSM control requires significantly lesser control efforts than
the exoskeleton using contrast FNSTSM control. The Bland-Altman analysis indicates
that although there is a minimal mean difference in variables when employing FNSTSM
and IFNSTSM controllers, the latter exhibits significant performance variations
as the mean of variables changes. This research contributes to affordable and
effective pediatric gait assistance, improving rehabilitation outcomes and enhancing
mobility support.'
- source_sentence: Anatomo-functional basis of emotional and motor resonance elicited
by facial expressions.
sentences:
- Simulation theories predict that the observation of other's expressions modulates
neural activity in the same centers controlling their production. This hypothesis
has been developed by two models, postulating that the visual input is directly
projected either to the motor system for action recognition (motor resonance)
or to emotional/interoceptive regions for emotional contagion and social synchronization
(emotional resonance). Here we investigated the role of frontal/insular regions
in the processing of observed emotional expressions by combining intracranial
recording, electrical stimulation and effective connectivity. First, we intracranially
recorded from prefrontal, premotor or anterior insular regions of 44 patients
during the passive observation of emotional expressions, finding widespread modulations
in prefrontal/insular regions (anterior cingulate cortex, anterior insula, orbitofrontal
cortex and inferior frontal gyrus) and motor territories (rolandic operculum and
inferior frontal junction). Subsequently, we electrically stimulated the activated
sites, finding that (a) in the anterior cingulate cortex and anterior insula,
the stimulation elicited emotional/interoceptive responses, as predicted by the
'emotional resonance model', (b) in the rolandic operculum it evoked face/mouth
sensorimotor responses, in line with the 'motor resonance' model, and (c) all
other regions were unresponsive or revealed functions unrelated to the processing
of facial expressions. Finally, we traced the effective connectivity to sketch
a network-level description of these regions, finding that the anterior cingulate
cortex and the anterior insula are reciprocally interconnected while the rolandic
operculum is part of the parieto-frontal circuits and poorly connected with the
formers. These results support the hypothesis that the pathways hypothesized by
the 'emotional resonance' and the 'motor resonance' models work in parallel, differing
in terms of spatio-temporal fingerprints, reactivity to electrical stimulation
and connectivity patterns.
- STAC3-related myopathy, or Native American myopathy, and myopathic facies. Since
the first description of NAM, more cases have been described worldwide, with three
cases reported from the Middle East. This study presents a cohort of seven Saudi
NAM patients belonging to three families. To our knowledge, this cohort is the
largest to be reported in the Arabian Peninsula and the Middle Eastern region.
We will also highlight the importance of considering this MH-causing disease preoperatively
in myopathic children with cleft palate in areas where NAM has been described.
- The Tibetan Plateau supplies water to nearly 2 billion people in Asia, but climate
change poses threats to its aquatic microbial resources. Here, we construct the
Tibetan Plateau Microbial Catalog by sequencing 498 metagenomes from six water
ecosystems (saline lakes, freshwater lakes, rivers, hot springs, wetlands and
glaciers). Our catalog expands knowledge of regional genomic diversity by presenting
32,355 metagenome-assembled genomes that de-replicated into 10,723 representative
genome-based species, of which 88% were unannotated. The catalog contains nearly
300 million non-redundant gene clusters, of which 15% novel, and 73,864 biosynthetic
gene clusters, of which 50% novel, thus expanding known functional diversity.
Using these data, we investigate the Tibetan Plateau aquatic microbiome's biogeography
along a distance of 2,500 km and >5 km in altitude. Microbial compositional similarity
and the shared gene count with the Tibetan Plateau microbiome decline along with
distance and altitude difference, suggesting a dispersal pattern. The Tibetan
Plateau Microbial Catalog stands as a substantial repository for high-altitude
aquatic microbiome resources, providing potential for discovering novel lineages
and functions, and bridging knowledge gaps in microbiome biogeography.

bimanual coordination pattern in children with probable developmental coordination
disorder.
sentences:
- 'BACKGROUND: Tobacco smoking remains a key cause of preventable illness and death
globally. In response, many countries provide extensive services to help people
to stop smoking by offering a variety of effective behavioural and pharmacological
therapies. However, many people who wish to stop smoking do not have access to
or use stop smoking supports, and new modes of support, including the use of financial
incentives, are needed to address this issue. A realist review of published international
literature was undertaken to understand how, why, for whom, and in which circumstances
financial incentives contribute to success in stopping smoking for general population
groups and among pregnant women. METHODS: Systematic searches were undertaken
from inception to February 2022 of five academic databases: MEDLINE (ovid), Embase.com,
CIHAHL, Scopus and PsycINFO. Study selection was inclusive of all study designs.
Twenty-two studies were included. Using Pawson and Tilley''s iterative realist
review approach, data collected were screened, selected, coded, analysed, and
synthesised into a set of explanatory theoretical findings. RESULTS: Data were
synthesised into six Context-Mechanism-Outcome Configurations and one overarching
programme theory after iterative rounds of analysis, team discussion, and expert
panel feedback. Our programme theory shows that financial incentives are particularly
useful to help people stop smoking if they have a financial need, are pregnant
or recently post-partum, have a high threshold for behaviour change, and/or respond
well to external rewards. The incentives work through a number of mechanisms including
the role their direct monetary value can play in a person''s life and through
a process of reinforcement where they can help build confidence and self-esteem.
CONCLUSION: This is the first realist review to synthesise how, why, and for whom
financial incentives work among those attempting to stop smoking, adding to the
existing evidence demonstrating their efficacy. The findings will support the
implementation of current knowledge into effective programmes which can enhance
the impact of stop smoking care. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER: CRD42022298941.'
- We developed a synthetic method for obtaining 4,5-disubstituted 2-(pyridin-2-yl)oxazoles
from picolinamide and aldehydes by employing Pd(TFA)2 as the catalyst in n-octane.
This cascade reaction involves the condensation of picolinamide and two aldehyde
molecules promoted by trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) generated in situ from Pd(TFA)2.
This one-pot protocol provides rapid access to synthetically valuable triaryloxazoles
from readily available starting materials under mild conditions. An 18O labeling
study revealed that this tandem reaction proceeded via a different reaction mechanism
compared to the Robinson-Gabriel oxazole synthesis.
- 'The study of the emergence and stability of bimanual and interlimb coordination
patterns in children with Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) has shown
that they encounter greater difficulties in coupling their limbs compared to typically
developing (TD) children. Verbal cues have been identified as strategies to direct
children''s attention to more relevant task information, thus potentially improving
motor performance. Consequently, this study investigated the effect of providing
verbal cues on the execution of bimanual tasks in children with and without probable
DCD. Twenty-eight children aged 9-10, matched by age and gender, were divided
into two groups: pDCD and TD. The children performed bilateral trajectory movements
with both hands (horizontal back-and-forth), holding a pen on a tablet, in anti-phase
(180°) coordination pattern, in two conditions: No cues and Verbal cues. In the
last condition, children received verbal cues to maintain the anti-phase pattern
even with an increase in hand oscillation frequency. Relative phase and variability
of relative phase between the hands were calculated for analysis of pattern coupling
and stability. Hand cycles, movement amplitude, and tablet pressure force were
calculated to analyze pattern control parameters. All these variables were compared
between groups and conditions. The results indicated that despite the pDCD group
showing greater variability in the anti-phase coordination pattern compared to
the TD group, both groups performed better in the Verbal cues than the No cues
condition. Furthermore, the pDCD group exhibited more hand movement cycles and
applied greater pressure force compared to the TD group, suggesting different
motor control strategies during the bimanual task. It is suggested that the use
of verbal cues during bimanual task execution improves children''s performance,
potentially by promoting interaction between attention, as a cognitive function,
and intrinsic coordination dynamics, thereby reducing variability in the perceptual-motor
system.'
- source_sentence: 'Frailty efficacy as a predictor of clinical and cognitive complications
in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting: a prospective cohort study.'
sentences:
- 'BACKGROUND: Frailty is proposed as a predictor of outcomes in patients undergoing
major surgeries, although data on the association of frailty and coronary artery
bypass grafting, cognitive function by Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), and
depression by the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) were obtained. The incidence
of adverse outcomes was investigated at the three-month follow-up. Outcomes between
frail and non-frail groups were compared utilizing T-tests and Mann-Whitney U
tests, as appropriate. RESULTS: We included 170 patients with a median age of
66 ± 4 years (75.3% male). Of these, 58 cases were classified as frail, and 112
individuals were non-frail, preoperatively. Frail patients demonstrated significantly
worse baseline MOCA scores (21.08 versus 22.41, P = 0.045), GDS (2.00 versus 1.00,
P = 0.009), and Lawton IADL (8.00 versus 6.00, P < 0.001) compared to non-frail.
According to 3-month follow-up data, postoperative MOCA and GDS scores were comparable
between the two groups, while Lawton IADL (8.00 versus 6.00, P < 0.001) was significantly
lower in frail cases. A significantly higher rate of readmission (1.8% versus
12.1%), sepsis (7.1% versus 19.0%), as well as a higher Euroscore (1.5 versus
1.9), was observed in the frail group. A mildly significantly more extended ICU
stay (6.00 versus 5.00, p = 0.051) was shown in the frail patient. CONCLUSION:
Frailty showed a significant association with a worse preoperative independence
level, cognitive function, and depression status, as well as increased postoperative
complications.'
- 'OBJECTIVE: To assess presentation of neurosyphilis with a focus on the psychiatric
aspects. METHOD: File review of the cases with a positive cerebrospinal fluid
venereal disease research laboratory test between 1999 to 2020. RESULTS: Medical
records of 143 neurosyphilis patients were analysed. Hallucinations, delusions,
and catatonia were the commonest psychiatric symptoms. Brain atrophy was the commonest
neuroimaging finding. The number of neurosyphilis patients and the proportion
with delirium or catatonia declined during the second decade. CONCLUSION: Atypical
presentation of psychiatric symptoms around the fifth decade, with associated
neurological symptoms or brain imaging changes, should prompt evaluation for neurosyphilis.'

a case Report.'
sentences:
- With the increasing population worldwide more wastewater is created by human activities
and discharged into the waterbodies. This is causing the contamination of aquatic
bodies, thus disturbing the marine ecosystems. The rising population is also posing
a challenge to meet the demands of fresh drinking water in the water-scarce regions
of the world, where drinking water is made available to people by desalination
process. The fouling of composite membranes remains a major challenge in water
desalination. In this innovative study, we present a novel probabilistic approach
to analyse and anticipate the predominant fouling mechanisms in the filtration
process. Our establishment of a robust theoretical framework hinges upon the utilization
of both the geometric law and the Hermia model, elucidating the concept of resistance
in series (RIS). By manipulating the transmembrane pressure, we demonstrate effective
management of permeate flux rate and overall product quality. Our investigations
reveal a decrease in permeate flux in three distinct phases over time, with the
final stage marked by a significant reduction due to the accumulation of a denser
cake layer. Additionally, an increase in transmembrane pressure leads to a correlative
rise in permeate flux, while also exerting negative effects such as membrane ruptures.
Our study highlights the minimal immediate impact of the intermediate blocking
mechanism (n = 1) on permeate flux, necessitating continuous monitoring for potential
long-term effects. Additionally, we note a reduced membrane selectivity across
all three fouling types (n = 0, n = 1.5, n = 2). Ultimately, our findings indicate
that the membrane undergoes complete fouling with a probability of P = 0.9 in
the presence of all three fouling mechanisms. This situation renders the membrane
unable to produce water at its previous flow rate, resulting in a significant
reduction in the desalination plant's productivity. I have demonstrated that higher
pressure values notably correlate with increased permeate flux across all four
membrane types. This correlation highlights the significant role of TMP in enhancing
the production rate of purified water or desired substances through membrane filtration
systems. Our innovative approach opens new perspectives for water desalination
management and optimization, providing crucial insights into fouling mechanisms
and proposing potential strategies to address associated challenges.
- Incarceration of the appendix within a femoral hernia is a rare condition of abdominal

a 56-year-old female whose appendix was trapped in the right femoral canal. There
are few reports in the literature on entrapment of the appendix within a femoral
hernia. The management of this condition includes antibiotics, drainage appendectomy,
hernioplasty and mesh repair.
- 'INTRODUCTION: Globally, the prevalence of obesity tripled from 1975 to 2016.
There is evidence that air pollution may contribute to the obesity epidemic through
an increase in oxidative stress and inflammation of adipose tissue. However, the
impact of air pollution on body weight at a population level remains inconclusive.
This systematic review and meta-analysis will estimate the association of ambient
air pollution with obesity, distribution of ectopic adipose tissue, and the incidence
and prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease among adults. METHODS AND
ANALYSIS: The study will follow the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews
and Meta-Analyses guidelines for conduct and reporting. The search will include
the following databases: Ovid Medline, Embase, PubMed, Web of Science and Latin
America and the Caribbean Literature on Health Sciences, and will be supplemented
by a grey literature search. Each article will be independently screened by two
reviewers, and relevant data will be extracted independently and in duplicate.
Study-specific estimates of associations and their 95% Confidence Intervals will
be pooled using a DerSimonian and Laird random-effects model, implemented using
the RevMan software. The I2 statistic will be used to assess interstudy heterogeneity.
The confidence in the body of evidence will be assessed using the Grading of Recommendations
Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) approach. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION:
As per institutional policy, ethical approval is not required for secondary data
analysis. In addition to being published in a peer-reviewed journal and presented
at conferences, the results of the meta-analysis will be shared with key stakeholders,
health policymakers and healthcare professionals. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER:

The epoch, however, to which our speculations relate is that in which he had not reached the present symmetric development of his intellect and of his bodily organs, and the inquiry is: Which mode of communication was earliest adopted to his single wants and informed intelligence? With the voice he could imitate distinictively but few sounds of nature, while with gesture he could exhibit actions, motions, positions, forms, dimensions, directions and distances, with their derivations and analogues. It would seem from this unequal division of capacity that oral speech remained rudimentary long after gesture had become an efficient mode of communication.

| Public health campaigns have the potential to correct vaping misperceptions. However, campaigns highlighting vaping harms to youth may increase misperceptions that vaping is equally/more harmful than smoking. Vaping campaigns have been implemented in the United States and Canada since 2018 and in England since 2017 but with differing focus: youth vaping prevention. Over half of youth reported noticing vaping campaigns, and noticing increased from August 2018 to February 2020. Consistent with implementation of youth vaping prevention campaigns in the United States and Canada, most youth reported noticing vaping campaigns/messages, and most were perceived to negatively portray vaping.

| Comprehensive performance evaluation of six bioaerosol samplers based on an aerosol wind tunnel.
| Choosing a suitable bioaerosol sampler for atmospheric microbial monitoring has been a challenge to researchers interested in environmental microbiology, especially during a pandemic. However, a comprehensive and integrated evaluation method to fully assess bioaerosol sampler performance is still lacking. Herein, we constructed a customized wind tunnel operated at 2-20 km/h wind speed to systematically and efficiently evaluate the performance of six frequently used samplers, where various aerosols, including Arizona test dust, bacterial spores, gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, phages, and viruses, were generated. After 10 or 60 min of sampling, the physical and biological sampling efficiency and short or long-term sampling capabilities were determined by performing aerodynamic particle size analysis, live microbial culturing, and a qPCR assay. The results showed that AGI-30 and BioSampler impingers have good physical and biological sampling efficiencies for short-term sampling...

| The occurrence, sources, and health risks of substituted polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (SPAHs) cannot be ignored.
| Similar to parent polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PPAHs), substituted PAHs (SPAHs) are prevalent in the environment and harmful to humans. However, they have not received much attention. This study investigated the occurrence, distribution, and sources of 10 PPAHs and 15 SPAHs in soil, water, and indoor and outdoor PM2.5 and dust in high-exposure areas (EAH) near industrial parks and low-exposure areas (EAL) far from industrial parks. PAH pollution in all media was more severe in the EAH than in the EAL. All SPAHs were detected in this study, with alkylated and oxygenated PAHs being predominant. Additionally, 3-OH-BaP and 1-OH-Pyr were detected in all dust samples in this study, and 6-N-Chr, a compound with carcinogenicity 10 times higher than that of BaP, was detected at high levels in all tap water samples. According to the indoor-outdoor ratio, PAHs in indoor PM2.5 in the EAH mainly originated from indoor pollution sources; however, those in the EAL were simultaneously affected by...
