Long‐Term Memory
Authors: Light Leah L.
Published: December 2015

Different aspects of long‐term memory display different trajectories across the adult years. Both semantic memory and nondeclarative memory are relatively preserved. Episodic memory, however, is subject to age‐related changes, becoming both less detailed and less accurate as adults age. Explanations of these changes have focused on broad underlying mechanisms as well as on more specific processes. The role of goals and priorities in deciding what information to remember or to include in narratives about personal experiences must also be considered.
Learning and Cognitive Maturation
Authors: Ramscar Michael , Baayen Harald
Published: December 2015

Healthy aging is associated with cognitive changes that are commonly thought to reflect diminished processing power in our minds and brains. Formally, however, in the absence of functional models of cognitive processing and without controlling for the way that learning tends to result in increases in the amount of information processed by the cognitive system, it is impossible to establish whether cognitive processing capacities actually do decline over the lifespan. When the cognitive processes measured by psychometric tests of behavior are formally defined, the performance of older adults can be seen to show little evidence of decline; rather, changes in test scores closely reflect the predictable performance of a system with consistent capacity‐processing increasing information loads as age and experience increase.
Directed Forgetting
Authors: Gallant Sara N. , Yang Lixia
Published: December 2015

The benefit of forgetting lies in its ability to reduce clutter in memory by removing information that is no longer relevant. In the laboratory, forgetting can be experimentally induced using thedirected forgettingparadigm, for which there are two versions: the item‐based and list‐based methods. Both tasks have been shown to be effective in producing the directed forgetting effect, operationally defined as greater memory for items cued as to‐be‐remembered relative to those cued as to‐be‐forgotten. This entry reviews the methods and theory of directed forgetting, as well as how the ability to engage in directed forgetting changes as a function of normal aging.
Cognitive Plasticity
Authors: Wilkinson Andrea J. , Yang Lixia
Published: December 2015

Cognitive plasticity refers to capacity to improve mental abilities through practice or training. In the literature, three main approaches have been used to induce cognitive plasticity: practice/retest learning, strategy‐based training, and lifestyle exercise. Using these approaches, cognitive plasticity has been demonstrated in a wide variety of cognitive domains across the lifespan, including old age. This entry describes the three approaches used to assess cognitive plasticity and discusses two key features of effective training programs—transfer and durability—in the context of the aging population.

Published: December 2015

Many different aerogel materials are known to be accessible via the controlled destabilization of the respective nanoparticle suspensions. Especially for applications in heterogeneous catalysis such materials with high specific surface areas are highly desirable. Here, a facile method to obtain a mixed ZnPd/ZnO aerogel via a reductive treatment of a preformed Pd/ZnO aerogel is presented. Different morphologies of the Pd/ZnO aerogels could be achieved by controlling the destabilization of the ZnO sol. All aerogels show a high CO2 selectivity of up to 96% and a very good activity in methanol steam reforming that delivers hydrogen, which is one of the most important fuels for future energy concepts. The method presented is promising for different transition metal/metal oxide systems and hence opens a path to a huge variety of materials.

Published: December 2015

Heavy metals contained in wastewater are one of the most serious pollutions in natural resources. A self‐powered electrochemical recovery system for collecting Cu ions in wastewater by incorporating a rolling friction enhanced freestanding triboelectric nanogenerator (RF‐TENG) is developed here. The RF‐TENG utilizes integrated cylindrical surfaces using the conjunction of rolling electrification and freestanding electrostatic induction, which shows outstanding output performance and ultrarobust stability. By using the kinetic energy of flowing water, a collection efficiency of up to 80% for Cu2+ ions in wastewater has been achieved. Self‐powered electrochemical systems are one of the most promising applications of TENGs for independent and sustainable driving of electrochemical reactions without the need for any additional power supply. This research is a substantial advancement towards the practical applications of triboelectric nanogenerators and self‐powered electrochemical systems.
Sleep disturbance in Mowat–Wilson syndrome
Authors: Evans Elizabeth , Mowat David , Wilson Meredith , Einfeld Stewart
Published: December 2015

Mowat–Wilson syndrome (MWS) is a multiple congenital anomaly syndrome caused by a heterozygous mutation or deletion of the ZEB2 gene. It is characterized by a distinctive facial appearance in association with intellectual disability (ID) and variable other features including agenesis of the corpus callosum, seizures, congenital heart defects, microcephaly, short stature, hypotonia, and Hirschsprung disease. The current study investigated sleep disturbance in people with MWS. In a series of unstructured interviews focused on development and behaviors in MWS, family members frequently reported sleep disturbance, particularly early‐morning waking and frequent night waking. The Sleep Disturbance Scale for Children (SDSC) was therefore administered to a sample of 35 individuals with MWS, along with the Developmental Behaviour Checklist (DBC) to measure behavioral and emotional disturbance. A high level of sleep disturbance was found in the MWS sample, with 53% scoring in the borderline range and 44% in the clinical disorder range for at least one subscale of the SDSC. Scores were highest for the Sleep‐wake transition disorders subscale, with 91% of participants reaching at least the borderline disorder range. A significant positive association was found between total scores on the SDSC and the DBC Total Behaviour Problem Score. These results suggest that sleep disorders should be screened for in people with MWS, and where appropriate, referrals to sleep specialists made for management of sleep problems. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Published: December 2015

Autosomal aneuploidies associate with multiple minor skeletal defects, which, in fetuses, are best appreciated post‐mortem after specific anatomic preparations. The present study was aimed to define patterns of skeletal anomalies in autosomal aneuploidies at standard radiology in second trimester fetuses by comparing findings in and among genotypes and gestational ages. Aneuploid fetuses were selected for availability of radiographs of various axial and non‐axial structures, mainly homeotic transformations, vertebral clefts, vertebral segmentation and ossification defects, absent/hypoplastic nasal bone, premature talar calcifications, and selected appendicular anomalies. Eighty six fetuses with trisomy 21, 39 with trisomy 18, eight with trisomy 13, six with triploidy, and six with rare autosomal aneuploidies were identified, 75.2% showing an abnormal costo‐vertebral pattern, mostly cervical ribs, absence of the 12th thoracic ribs and posterior homeotic change. Clefting was observed along the entire spine, especially sagittal lumbar clefts, and coronal thoracic clefts. Four different types of vertebral clefting were identified, including type 1 (butterfly), type 2 (incomplete inferior), type 3 (incomplete superior), and type 4 (complete). Attenuation of clefting by gestational age was observed in trisomy 21 and 18. These findings define more clearly the pattern of perturbed morphogenesis in aneuploidy as a type of amplified developmental instability with pleiotropic effects on skeletogenesis. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Published: December 2015

In this article, we have theoretically demonstrated the mechanism of an active tractor beam for multiple fully immersed objects with additional abilities to yielding stable long distance levitation, a controlled rotation and a desired 3D trapping. This is demonstrated with a single optical set‐up by using two coaxial, or even non‐coaxial, superimposed higher order monochromatic Bessel beams of reverse helical nature and different frequencies. The superimposed beams can possess periodic intensity variations both along and around the beam‐axis due to a difference in longitudinal wave‐numbers and beam orders, respectively. The difference in frequencies of the two laser beams makes the intensity pattern to move along and around the beam‐axis in a continuous way without manual ramping of phase, which allows for bidirectional movement of completely immersed multiple particles. The condition for increasing or decreasing the dimension of binding regions is also proposed here to manipulate multiple immersed objects of different sizes under dipole approximation.

High‐temperature study of superconducting hydrogen and deuterium sulfide
Authors: Durajski A.P. , Szczȩśniak R. , Pietronero L.
Published: December 2015

Hydrogen‐rich compounds are extensively explored as candidates for a high‐temperature superconductors. Currently, the measured critical temperature of 203 K in hydrogen sulfide (H3S) is among the highest over all‐known superconductors. In present paper, using the strong‐coupling Eliashberg theory of superconductivity, we compared in detail the thermodynamic properties of two samples containing different hydrogen isotopes H3S and D3S at 150 GPa. Our research indicates that it is possible to reproduce the measured values of critical temperature 203 K and 147 K for H3S and D3S by using a Coulomb pseudopotential of 0.123 and 0.131, respectively. However, we also discuss a scenario in which the isotope effect is independent of pressure and the Coulomb pseudopotential for D3S is smaller than for H3S. For both scenarios, the energy gap, specific heat, thermodynamic critical field and related dimensionless ratios are calculated and compared with other conventional superconductors. We shown that the existence of the strong‐coupling and retardation effects in the systems analysed result in significant differences between values obtained within the framework of the Eliashberg formalism and the prediction of the Bardeen‐Cooper‐Schrieffer theory.
Cobalt(II) Porphyrin‐Catalyzed Intramolecular Cyclopropanation of N‐Alkyl Indoles/Pyrroles with Alkylcarbene: Efficient Synthesis of Polycyclic N‐Heterocycles
Authors: Reddy Annapureddy Rajasekar , Hao Fei , Wu Kai , Zhou Cong‐Ying , Che Chi‐Ming
Published: December 2015

A protocol on chemoselective cobalt(II) porphyrin‐catalyzed intramolecular cyclopropanation of N‐alkyl indoles/pyrroles with alkylcarbenes has been developed. The reaction enables the rapid construction of a range of nitrogen‐containing polycyclic compounds in moderate to high yields from readily accessible materials. These N‐containing polycyclic compounds can be converted into a variety of N‐heterocycles with potential synthetic and biological interest. Compared to their N‐tosylhydrazone counterparts, the use of bulky N‐2,4,6‐triisopropylbenzenesulfonyl hydrazones as carbene precursors allows cyclopropanation to occur under milder reaction conditions.

Published: December 2015

Oxide‐derived copper (OD‐Cu) electrodes exhibit unprecedented CO reduction performance towards liquid fuels, producing ethanol and acetate with >50 % Faradaic efficiency at −0.3 V (vs. RHE). By using static headspace‐gas chromatography for liquid phase analysis, we identify acetaldehyde as a minor product and key intermediate in the electroreduction of CO to ethanol on OD‐Cu electrodes. Acetaldehyde is produced with a Faradaic efficiency of ≈5 % at −0.33 V (vs. RHE). We show that acetaldehyde forms at low steady‐state concentrations, and that free acetaldehyde is difficult to detect in alkaline solutions using NMR spectroscopy, requiring alternative methods for detection and quantification. Our results represent an important step towards understanding the CO reduction mechanism on OD‐Cu electrodes.
Programming A Molecular Relay for Ultrasensitive Biodetection through 129Xe NMR

Published: December 2015

A supramolecular strategy for detecting specific proteins in complex media by using hyperpolarized 129Xe NMR is reported. A cucurbit[6]uril (CB[6])‐based molecular relay was programmed for three sequential equilibrium conditions by designing a two‐faced guest (TFG) that initially binds CB[6] and blocks the CB[6]–Xe interaction. The protein analyte recruits the TFG and frees CB[6] for Xe binding. TFGs containing CB[6]‐ and carbonic anhydrase II (CAII)‐binding domains were synthesized in one or two steps. X‐ray crystallography confirmed TFG binding to Zn2+ in the deep CAII active‐site cleft, which precludes simultaneous CB[6] binding. The molecular relay was reprogrammed to detect avidin by using a different TFG. Finally, Xe binding by CB[6] was detected in buffer and in E. coli cultures expressing CAII through ultrasensitive 129Xe NMR spectroscopy.

Published: December 2015

Aminopeptidase N (APN) is an important enzyme that is involved in tumor angiogenesis. Detection of APN activity can thus lead to early diagnosis and elucidation of tumor development. Although some molecular probes for APN have been developed, the detection of APN activity in opaque biological samples remains a challenge. To this end, we designed a hyperpolarized NMR probe [1‐13C]Ala‐NH2 which satisfies the prerequisites for APN detection, namely, sufficient retention of the hyperpolarized state, a high reactivity to APN, and an APN‐induced chemical shift change. The [1‐13C]Ala‐NH2 probe allowed sensitive detection of APN activity using 13C NMR spectroscopy.

Sirtuine spalten NAD+‐abhängig Acylreste von Lysinen in Proteinen ab. Eine Fehlregulation von humanem Sirt2 wurde mit der Entstehung von Krebs, entzündlichen und neurodegenerativen Erkrankungen in Verbindung gebracht, was es zu einem vielversprechenden Zielprotein für die Wirkstoffforschung macht. Hier präsentieren wir die Entwicklung der ersten Sirt2‐selektiven Affinitätssonde auf Basis einer Kristallstruktur von Sirt2 in Komplex mit einem optimierten Hemmstoff aus der Klasse der SirReals (“Sirtuin Rearranging Ligands”). Dieser zeigt verbesserte Wirkpotenz, Wasserlöslichkeit und zelluläre Wirksamkeit. Die langsame Dissoziation des Enzym‐Sonden‐Komplexes ermöglicht die Erschließung neuer Anwendungsgebiete für die SirReals, darunter biophysikalische Charakterisierungsmethoden, fragmentbasiertes Wirkstoffscreening und Pull‐Down‐Experimente. Dies macht unsere SirReal‐Sonde zu einem wertvollen Werkzeug für weiterführende Studien in der Sirtuin‐Biologie.
Stepwise Versus Concerted Mechanisms in General‐Base Catalysis by Serine Proteases
Authors: Uritsky Neta , Shokhen Michael , Albeck Amnon
Published: December 2015

General‐base catalysis in serine proteases still poses mechanistic challenges despite decades of research. Whether proton transfer from the catalytic Ser to His and nucleophilic attack on the substrate are concerted or stepwise is still under debate, even for the classical Asp‐His‐Ser catalytic triad. To address these key catalytic steps, the transformation of the Michaelis complex to tetrahedral complex in the covalent inhibition of two prototype serine proteases was studied: chymotrypsin (with the catalytic triad) inhibition by a peptidyl trifluoromethane and GlpG rhomboid (with Ser‐His dyad) inhibition by an isocoumarin derivative. The sampled MD trajectories of averaged pKa values of catalytic residues were QM calculated by the MD‐QM/SCRF(VS) method on molecular clusters simulating the active site. Differences between concerted and stepwise mechanisms are controlled by the dynamically changing pKa values of the catalytic residues as a function of their progressively reduced water exposure, caused by the incoming ligand.

Reactions of [MoO2(acetylacetonate)2], 2‐((2‐(2‐hydroxyethylamino)ethylamino)methyl)‐4‐R‐phenols (H2Ln,n = 1–5 forR = H, Me, OMe, Cl and Br, respectively) and KOH in 1:1:2 mole ratio in methanol afford a series of complexes having the general formulacis‐[MoO2(Ln)] (1,2,3,4,5) in 81–86% yields. The complexes have been characterized using elemental analysis, spectroscopy (infrared, UV–visible, and1H NMR,13C NMR and13C‐DEPT NMR) and electrochemical measurements. The molecular structures of1,2,3,4have been determined using single‐crystal X‐ray crystallography. In each of1,2,3,4, the ONNO‐donor 6,5,5‐membered fused chelate rings forming (Ln)2−and the two mutuallycisoxo groups assemble a distorted octahedral N2O4coordination sphere around the metal centre. In the crystal lattice, each of1,2,3,4forms a one‐dimensional infinite chain structure via intermolecular NH⋅⋅⋅O hydrogen bonding interactions. In cyclic voltammograms, the diamagnetic complexes display an irreversible metal‐centred reduction in the potential range −0.73 to −0.88 V (vs Ag/AgCl). The physicochemical data are consistent with a very similar gross molecular structure for all of1,2,3,4,5. All the complexes exhibit decent bromoperoxidase activities and are also able to effectively catalyse benzoin and methyl(phenyl)sulfide oxidation reactions. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Authors: Park Sung Jin , Garcia Coralia V. , Shin Gye Hwa , Kim Jun Tae
Published: December 2015

In this study, we investigated the effects of the number of high pressure homogenization cycles and alginate (AG)‐to‐chitosan (CS) ratio on the physicochemical properties (mean size, polydispersity index, surface charge, encapsulation efficiency, and free radical scavenging) of (‐)‐epigallocatechin‐3‐gallate (EGCG)‐loaded nanoparticles. Nanoparticles prepared with alginate and chitosan concentrations of 0.01% and three cycles of high pressure homogenization exhibited a small size (293 nm) and a zeta potential of +37.49 mV, and were thus considered to be optimal for encapsulation. The highest encapsulation efficiency of 80.1% was achieved by using an EGCG concentration of 100 µg/g, which also resulted in the highest 2,2‐diphenyl‐1‐picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activities of 81.8% and 69.3% for pH 2.6 and pH 6.9, respectively. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Published: December 2015

BACKGROUND

A total of 75% of monozygotic twins share 1 monochorionic placenta where placental anastomoses cause several serious complications, for example, acardiac twinning. Acardiac twins lack cardiac function but grow by perfusion of arterial blood from the pump twin. This rare pregnancy has 50% natural pump twin mortality but accurate risk prediction is currently impossible. Recent guidelines suggest prophylactic surgery before 18 weeks, suggesting 50% unnecessary interventions. We hypothesize that (1) adverse pump twin outcome relates to easy‐to‐measure pump/acardiac umbilical venous diameter (UVD) ratios, representing acardiac perfusion by the pump's excess cardiac output. This hypothesis suggests that (2) UVD‐ratios are large, mildly varying in cases without complications but small and decreasing when complications develop, thus predicting that (3) UVD‐ratios may allow risk prediction of pump twins. In this exploratory clinical pilot, we tested whether UVD‐ratio measurements support these predictions.

METHODS

We included 7 uncomplicated (expectant management), 3 elective surgical, and 17 complicated cases (pump decompensation, emergency intervention/delivery or demise). Nine UVD‐ratios were measured sonographycally and 18 by pathology.

RESULTS

Uncomplicated cases have larger, two serial measurements showing mildly varying UVD‐ratios; elective surgical cases show larger UVD‐ratios; complicated cases have smaller, two serial measurements showing decreasing UVD‐ratios. There were no false‐positives, no false‐negatives and noncrossing linear trendlines of uncomplicated and complicated cohorts.

CONCLUSION

Our data provide first evidence that UVD‐ratios allow risk prediction of pump twins. More early uncomplicated and late complicated cases are needed, for example, in a prospective trial, before the separation between uncomplicated and complicated cohorts is accurate enough to support a well‐founded decision on (early) intervention.

Relaxed Poisson cure rate models
Authors: Rodrigues Josemar , Cordeiro Gauss M. , Cancho Vicente G. , Balakrishnan N.
Published: December 2015

The purpose of this article is to make the standard promotion cure rate model (Yakovlev and Tsodikov, ) more flexible by assuming that the number of lesions or altered cells after a treatment follows a fractional Poisson distribution (Laskin, ). It is proved that the well‐known Mittag‐Leffler relaxation function (Berberan‐Santos, ) is a simple way to obtain a new cure rate model that is a compromise between the promotion and geometric cure rate models allowing for superdispersion. So, the relaxed cure rate model developed here can be considered as a natural and less restrictive extension of the popular Poisson cure rate model at the cost of an additional parameter, but a competitor to negative‐binomial cure rate models (Rodrigues et al., ). Some mathematical properties of a proper relaxed Poisson density are explored. A simulation study and an illustration of the proposed cure rate model from the Bayesian point of view are finally presented.

NAB2‐STAT6 gene fusion drives STAT6 nuclear expression and is the pathognomonic hallmark of solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs). However, no study has systematically analyzed the clinicopathological features, STAT6 immunoexpression status, or the fusion variants of NAB2‐STAT6 in intrathoracic SFTs. Fifty‐two intrathoracic SFTs were retrieved to appraise histopathology, assess STAT6 immunoexpression, and determine NAB2‐STAT6 fusion variants by RT‐PCR. Location‐relevant histologic mimics served as controls. Thirty‐one pleura‐based, 12 mediastinal/pericardial, and nine intrapulmonary lesions were histologically categorized into eight malignant, eight atypical, and 36 conventional or cellular SFTs, including two fat‐forming and two giant cell angiofibroma‐like SFTs. STAT6 distinctively decorated the tumoral nuclei in 51 (98%) SFTs. However, no nuclear staining was observed in the histological mimics. NAB2‐STAT6 fusion was detected in 34 SFTs. Twenty‐nine (85.3%) exhibited the major NAB2ex4‐STAT6ex2/3 variant and 5 (14.7%) the minor NAB2ex6‐STAT6ex16/17. NAB2ex4‐STAT6ex2 was significantly associated with older age (P = 0.01) and pleuropulmonary tumors (P = 0.025). After a median follow‐up of 33.9 (range, 0.3–174.6) months, adverse outcomes occurred in one atypical and five malignant SFTs, including two local relapses, one intrapulmonary metastasis, and three extrathoracic metastases. Inferior disease‐free survival was univariately associated with atypical/malignant histology (P = 0.001) and a mitosis >4/10 HPFs (P = 0.0012) but was unrelated to fusion variants. In conclusion, the majority of intrathoracic SFTs exhibited STAT6 nuclear staining, and NAB2ex4‐STAT6ex2/3 was the predominant fusion type. However, clinical aggressiveness is associated with atypical/malignant histology primarily contributed by increased mitosis but was unrelated to the NAB2‐STAT6 fusion variants.

Published: December 2015

Although baby Noah is healthy and thriving at his one‐month well‐child visit, his pediatrician, Dr. Jones, is concerned about his mother, Carrie. Dr. Jones is also the pediatrician of Carrie's 3‐year‐old son, Kyle, and knew Carrie to be a sensitive, caring mother. Carrie seems distant during the appointment, barely interacting with Noah or Kyle, and responding slowly and quietly to Dr. Jones' questions. She admits to feeling tired, having difficulty concentrating, and not eating much since Noah was born. When Noah begins to get fussy during the appointment, Carrie rocks him absentmindedly. While Carrie rocks Noah, Kyle starts to tantrum. Carrie looks hopeless, seemingly without the energy or confidence to manage her two boys. Dr. Jones wonders whether Carrie is simply exhausted and getting used to taking care of a new baby along with an energetic preschooler, or if she should assess for other possibilities.
Effect of Shear Stress on Deoiling of Oil‐Contaminated Catalysts in a Hydrocyclone
Authors: Xu Yin‐xiang , Liu Yi , Zhang Yan‐hong , Yang Xue‐jing , Wang Hua‐lin
Published: December 2015

Shear stress provided by a hydrocyclone was employed to remove the oil from oil‐contaminated catalysts. Understanding the deoiling mechanism and quantitative analysis of the interaction between shear stress fields and deoiling are necessary to improve deoiling efficiency. A numerical simulation was conducted for the velocity field and shear stress field of a hydrocyclone. The shear stress field in the wall layer, where oil‐contaminated catalysts are usually located, was robust. Increasing inlet flow rates resulted in a higher shear rate distribution along the wall layer. Numerical results were compared with experimental data. In the deoiling process, higher shear stress rates promoted faster transport of oil from catalysts into the fluid, thereby increasing the deoiling efficiency. Deoiling by the shear stress of a hydrocyclone is an efficient method for cleaning oil‐contaminated catalysts within a short time.

Published: December 2015

Intramolecular hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) was examined in homocysteine (Hcy) thiyl radical/alkali metal ion complexes in the gas phase by combination of experimental techniques (ion‐molecule reactions and infrared multiple photon dissociation spectroscopy) and theoretical calculations. The experimental results unequivocally show that metal ion complexation (as opposed to protonation) of the regiospecifically generated Hcy thiyl radical promotes its rapid isomerisation into an α‐carbon radical via HAT. Theoretical calculations were employed to calculate the most probable HAT pathway and found that in alkali metal ion complexes the activation barrier is significantly lower, in full agreement with the experimental data. This is, to our knowledge, the first example of a gas‐phase thiyl radical thermal rearrangement into an α‐carbon species within the same amino acid residue and is consistent with the solution phase behaviour of Hcy radical.
