Published: July 2020

AbstractAlthough early-life adversity can undermine healthy development, children growing up in harsh environments may develop intact, or even enhanced, skills for solving problems in high-adversity contexts (i.e., “hidden talents”). Here we situate the hidden talents model within a larger interdisciplinary framework. Summarizing theory and research on hidden talents, we propose that stress-adapted skills represent a form of adaptive intelligence that enables individuals to function within the constraints of harsh, unpredictable environments. We discuss the alignment of the hidden talents model with current knowledge about human brain development following early adversity; examine potential applications of this perspective to multiple sectors concerned with youth from harsh environments, including education, social services, and juvenile justice; and compare the hidden talents model with contemporary developmental resilience models. We conclude that the hidden talents approach offers exciting new directions for research on developmental adaptations to childhood adversity, with translational implications for leveraging stress-adapted skills to more effectively tailor education, jobs, and interventions to fit the needs and potentials of individuals from a diverse range of life circumstances. This approach affords a well-rounded view of people who live with adversity that avoids stigma and communicates a novel, distinctive, and strength-based message.

Published: July 2020

AbstractExperimentally achieving the precision that standard quantum metrology schemes promise is always challenging. Recently, additional controls were applied to design feasible quantum metrology schemes. However, these approaches generally does not consider ease of implementation, raising technological barriers impeding its realization. In this paper, we circumvent this problem by applying closed-loop learning control to propose a practical controlled sequential scheme for quantum metrology. Purity loss of the probe state, which relates to quantum Fisher information, is measured efficiently as the fitness to guide the learning loop. We confirm its feasibility and certain superiorities over standard quantum metrology schemes by numerical analysis and proof-of-principle experiments in a nuclear magnetic resonance system.

AbstractDrug delivery by topical application has higher patient acceptance and lower morbidity than intraocular injection, but many ophthalmic treatments are unable to enter the eye or reach the posterior segment after topical application. The first stage towards posterior segment delivery after topical application is ocular surface penetration and existing models are in vivo or use large quantities of tissue. We therefore developed a novel ex vivo model using discs of porcine and human cornea and sclera (5 mm diameter) to assess penetration of a candidate neuroprotective siRNA. siRNA against caspase 2 or control solutions of known penetrance were applied to the corneal epithelial surface and trans-corneal penetration and corneal adsorbance measured at fixed time points. To demonstrate that leakage did not occur, we applied dextran blue, which should not penetrate the intact cornea and did not do so in our model. Fluorescein penetration (0.09%) was less than rhodamine B (6.98%) at 60 min. siCASP2 penetration was 0.01% by 60 min. When the applied siCASP2 was washed off after 2 min, (representing lacrimal drainage) 0.071% penetrated porcine cornea by 60 min and 0.0002% penetrated human cornea and 0.001% penetrated human sclera. Our ex vivo model rapidly and cost-effectively assesses transcorneal penetration of candidate topical therapies, allowing rates of trans-corneal penetration for potential therapies such as siRNA to be evaluated with small quantities of human or animal tissue.

Published: July 2020

PurposeThis study assessed state anxiety as a function of speech recognition testing using three clinical measures of speech in noise and one clinical measure of dichotic speech recognition.MethodThirty young adults, 30 middle-age adults, and 25 older adults participated. State anxiety was measured pre– and post–speech recognition testing using the State–Trait Anxiety Inventory. Speech recognition was measured with the Revised Speech Perception in Noise Test, the Quick Speech-in-Noise Test, the Words-in-Noise Test, and the Dichotic Digits Test (DDT).ResultsSpeech recognition performance was as expected: Older adults performed significantly poorer on all measures as compared to the young adults and significantly poorer on the Revised Speech Perception in Noise Test, the Quick Speech-in-Noise Test, and the Words-in-Noise Test as compared to the middle-age adults. On average, State–Trait Anxiety Inventory scores increased posttesting, with the middle-age adults exhibiting significantly greater increases in state anxiety as compared to the young and older adults. Increases in state anxiety were significantly greater for the DDT relative to the speech-in-noise tests for the middle-age adults only. Poorer DDT recognition performance was associated with higher levels of state anxiety.ConclusionsIncreases in state anxiety were observed after speech-in-noise and dichotic listening testing for all groups, with significant increases seen for the young and middle-age adults. Although the exact mechanisms could not be determined, multiple factors likely influenced the observed increases in state anxiety, including task difficulty, individual proficiency, and age.

Published: July 2020

Purpose
The study of morphological knowledge and its role in literacy development for early elementary students is growing. The aim of this tutorial is to illustrate the role a school-based speech-language pathologist (SLP) has as a collaborative partner in multitiered system of supports (MTSS) in elementary for morphological knowledge.

Method
This tutorial presents the role of morphology in the English writing system and the documented benefit of morphological interventions to support students' oral and written language development. Next, the role of morphology in literacy development as it appears in curricular standards is highlighted. Lastly, strategies are provided for how SLPs can be part of a collaborative educational team to increase morphological knowledge in early elementary school within an MTSS framework.

Conclusion
Given school-based SLPs' language and literacy expertise, we are well suited for engaging in collaborative partnerships in the school setting to increase academic outcomes. The information presented in this tutorial provides a guide to establish collaborative partnerships within educational teams to support morphological knowledge development through all MTSS tiers. Additionally, the need for further evidence to support the role of morphological knowledge in literacy development is presented.

ZusammenfassungZiel dieser Metaanalyse war es (1) den Effekt eines dynamischen Krafttrainings (DRT) auf die Knochendichte (BMD) der Lendenwirbelsäule (LWS) einzuschätzen, (2) günstige Belastungs-komponenten zu identifizieren und (3) Trainingsempfehlungen abzuleiten.Eine systematische Literaturrecherche schloss (a) kontrollierte Studien, (b) DRT ≥ 6 Monate mit mindestens einer Trainings- (TG) und einer Kontrollgruppe (KG), (c) LWS-BMD-Messung vor und nach der Intervention und (e) postmenopausale Frauen ein. Subgruppenanalysen wurden für Interventionsdauer, Art des DRT, Trainingshäufigkeit (TH), und -volumen sowie Reizintensität durchgeführt.17 Artikel mit 20 TG und 18 KG konnten eingeschlossen werden. Die standardisierte Mittelwertdifferenz für die LWS-BMD zeigte einen signifikanten Effekt (0,59; 95%-CI: 0,26–0,92). Eine niedrige TH zeigte signifikant höhere Effekte auf die BMD als eine TH von ≥ 2 Einheiten/Woche.Die Meta-Analyse zeigte einen moderaten DRT-Effekt auf die LWS-BMD. Ergebnisse der Subanalysen standen zum Teil im Gegensatz zur vorliegenden Literatur. Subanalysen meta-analytischer Auswertung scheinen zur Generierung erfolgversprechender Trainingsprotokolle nicht geeignet zu sein.
Pelvines Stauungssyndrom: Wie wird die Diagnose gesichert, wer muss behandelt werden?
Authors: Hirsch Tobias , Wohlgemuth Walter A. 
Published: July 2020

ZusammenfassungUnterleibsbeschwerden waren lange Zeit die Domäne von Gynäkologen, Internisten und Urologen. Die Erkenntnis, dass auch eine venöse Abstrombehinderung im kleinen Becken bzw. im Abdomen ähnliche Beschwerden hervorrufen kann, hat dazu geführt, dass in den letzten Jahren auch Gefäßmediziner in die Diagnostik und Behandlung einbezogen werden.Das pelvine Stauungssyndrom kann eine Vielzahl von auch nichtspezifischen Beschwerden verursachen. Die differenzialdiagnostische Abgrenzung zu gynäkologischen, internistischen oder auch orthopädischen Störungen stellt damit eine Herausforderung dar. Die akribische Anamneseerhebung und Symptombeschreibung sind von übergeordneter Bedeutung. In der weiteren Diagnostik kommt der Sonografie die wichtigste Bedeutung zu, die durch radiologische Schichtbildverfahren ergänzt werden kann. Wird vor allem eine Varikose im Genitalbereich beklagt, ist zu klären, ob es sich um eine venöse Insuffizienz im Bereich der Vena iliaca interna bzw. der Vena ovarica handelt oder ob postthrombotische Veränderungen eine Rolle spielen. Bei pelvinen und abdominellen Schmerzzuständen müssen zusätzlich die Nierenvenen und die untere Hohlvene beurteilt werden.Nur wenn die Störung differenzialdiagnostisch sicher abgegrenzt werden kann, ist eine invasive Behandlung durch Katheterverfahren und/oder Schaumsklerotherapie angezeigt.
Comprehensibility andeveryday English use
Authors: Zielinski Beth , Pryor Elizabeth 
Published: July 2020

Abstract
In this longitudinal study we tracked change in comprehensibility and English use over a 10-month period in 14 L2
English learners (8 beginner, 6 intermediate) settling in Australia. They were interviewed 4 times during the 10 months as part of
a larger longitudinal study. English use was reported at each interview using a language map and excerpts from recordings of
Interviews 1 and 4 were rated for comprehensibility. Intermediate participants tended to be more comprehensible and maintain a
higher level of English use over time than the beginners. Exploration of individual variation revealed a range of
comprehensibility outcomes, the variable and non-linear nature of English use trajectories, and a possible relationship between
comprehensibility change and English use for some participants. Important methodological implications for future studies relate to
the measurement of comprehensibility and English use, the speech samples used for comprehensibility ratings, and the importance of
individual variation.

Abstract
CO2 laser cladding is a type of green remanufacturing technology, which is of many technical advantages in repairing and remanufacturing industry, especially for some large-scale key mining equipment or parts due to its characteristics of high quality, high efficiency and environmental protection (e.g. energy and material saving). In this paper, the chute plate of coal mining scraper is fixed and remanufactured by CO2 laser cladding technique. Ni60, WC, Ni35, IG55 and other composite powders are selected to design and build the gradient functional structure for chute plate in order to improve the reproduced lifetime. A lot of high power low cost CO2 laser cladding tests are carried out on the matrix material (AISI 1040 steel plate) of old attrite chute plate. The optical microscope, SEM, XRD, microhardness test and wear experiment are adopted to analyze the relationships among the laser cladding process, the overlaying composite material, gradient functional structure and mechanical properties of the remanufacturing scraper’s chute plate. The research results show that laser power and scanning speed are the dominant cladding process parameters, which have a significant influence on the geometric dimension (including width and height), dilution rate and hardness of the deposited layer. These composite powders (especially including the rare earth metals) are the key factor to form the gradient functional structure. The laser cladding Ni60 + WC/Ni35/AISI1040 composite gradient functional structure has a reasonable toughness and strength of the transition layer structure, and a high hardness and wear-resistant surface functional layer, so the fixed and remanufactured product has formed good ductile plasticity and wear resistance properties as a result of the gradient functional structure. The unique Ni60 + WC/Ni35/AISI1040 gradient functional structure makes sure that the chute plate of mining scraper has excellent comprehensive performance, which is satisfied with the service requirements of mechanical parts or equipment in the harsh working environment of the mining industry. This research work provides technological guidance for the fix and remanufacturing chute plate, and achieves the goal of low cost, high efficiency and long life reproduced chute plate of mining scraper.
Crystal face dependent intrinsic wettability of metal oxide surfaces

Published: July 2020

AbstractKnowledge of intrinsic wettability at solid/liquid interfaces at the molecular level perspective is significant in understanding crucial progress in some fields, such as electrochemistry, molecular biology and earth science. It is generally believed that surface wettability is determined by the surface chemical component and surface topography. However, when taking molecular structures and interactions into consideration, many intriguing phenomena would enrich or even redress our understanding of surface wettability. From the perspective of interfacial water molecule structures, here, we discovered that the intrinsic wettability of crystal metal oxide is not only dependent on the chemical components but also critically dependent on the crystal faces. For example, the $( {1\bar{1}02} )$ crystal face of α-Al2O3 is intrinsically hydrophobic with a water contact angle near 90°, while another three crystal faces are intrinsically hydrophilic with water contact angles &lt;65°. Based on surface energy analysis, it is found that the total surface energy, polar component and Lewis base portion of the hydrophobic crystal face are all smaller than the other three hydrophilic crystal faces indicating that they have different surface states. DFT simulation further revealed that the adsorbed interfacial water molecules on each crystal face hold various orientations. Herein, the third crucial factor for surface wettability from the perspective of the molecular level is presented, that is the orientations of adsorbed interfacial water molecules apart from the macro-level chemical component and surface topography. This study may serve as a source of inspiration for improving wetting theoretical models and designing controllable wettability at the molecular/atomic level.
En-route headway-based bus reliability with real-time data at network scale
Authors: Li Yiyi , Tan Huadong 
Published: July 2020

AbstractBus reliability has long attracted attention and been extensively studied to enhance service quality. However, existing research generally evaluates bus reliability of specific routes or stops. To this end, this study explores en-route bus reliability with real-time data at network scale. Drawing on data of bus automatic vehicle location and smart card usage in Ningbo, China, this study calculates headway-based reliability with the difference between actual and scheduled headway at each stop. To demonstrate the trend of stop-level reliability along a bus route, reliability is graded and visualized on a map with ridership at each stop, which is then weighted with passenger-boarding volume. Route-level reliability is then quantified and mapped, where unreliable service basically concentrates in or extends through the centre area. With respect to network-level reliability, temporal changes are demonstrated with ridership on weekdays and at the weekend. It is observed that on weekdays, the reliability trend is similar to that of ridership, implying a causal relationship between bus travel-time variation and bus waiting-time at stops. Furthermore, a reliability comparison between weekdays in December and October shows the necessity of evaluating periodically and around important events to avoid negative riding experiences that discourage public transport usage. This research provides insights for bus agencies to systematically evaluate service reliability both spatially and temporarily, in order to identify and prioritize the routes and stops where the scope for reliability improvement and the expected benefit are greatest.
Diabetic Pilon Factures: Are They as Bad as We Think?
Authors: Oladeji Lasun O. , Platt Brooks , Crist Brett D. 
Published: July 2020

Objective:
To identify how diabetes impacts the risk of complications requiring further surgery (deep surgical site infection, nonunion, amputation, and arthrodesis) after pilon fracture fixation.

Design:
Retrospective cohort study.

Setting:
Level 1 academic trauma center.

Patients:
Two hundred seventy-nine pilon fractures (276 patients) were identified. A retrospective review was performed to find patients who presented for open reduction and internal fixation of a tibial pilon fracture (OTA/AO 43). Patient demographics, medical comorbidities, OTA/AO fracture type, and surgical outcomes were reviewed.

Intervention:
Patients were stratified into cohorts based on the presence or absence of diabetes at the time of surgery.

Main Outcome Measurements:
The complications of interest that proved significant during univariate analyses were then entered into a multivariable logistic regression model using a stepwise method to identify the independent predictors for complications.

Results:
There were 43 fractures (15.4%) in patients with diabetes mellitus; 17 (39.5%) of whom were insulin-dependent diabetics. Diabetic patients were significantly more likely to have a higher body mass index (34.81 vs. 29.57, P = 0.002) and be older (55.30 ± 16.3 years vs. 41.70 ± 14.05, P < 0.001) at the time of injury. Patients without diabetes were more likely to sustain an OTA/AO 43-C3 fracture (36.0% vs. 11.6%, P = 0.001). Diabetic patients were 5.5 times more likely to require an arthrodesis [95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.894–16.214; P = 0.001] and 2.7 times more likely to develop a deep infection (95% CI = 1.261–5.630; P = 0.008).

Conclusions:
Overall, diabetic patients in this study were 3.64 times more likely (95% CI = 1.854–7.159; P < 0.001) to experience any complication, despite having less complex fractures.

Level of Evidence:
Prognostic Level III. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.
Cutaneous Involvement by Mantle Cell Lymphoma: Expanding the Spectrum of Histopathologic Findings in a Series of 9 Cases
Authors: Panse Gauri , Cowper Shawn , Ko Christine J. , Subtil Antonio 
Published: July 2020

Abstract
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is an aggressive B-cell neoplasm with cutaneous involvement in ∼1% of cases. We present a single institutional series of nine patients (12 specimens) with cutaneous involvement by systemic MCL and review the clinicopathologic features. Six males and 3 females (age range 55–87 years) were included. Sites of involvement were head and neck (n = 3), trunk (n = 5), and extremities (n = 4). Histopathologically, 3 showed classic cytomorphology, 2 were blastoid, 3 pleomorphic, and 1 showed features resembling marginal zone lymphoma. Two cases presented with cutaneous lesions as the first tissue manifestation of the disease. A second malignancy was identified in 3/9 cases (2 melanomas and 1 papillary thyroid carcinoma). In one patient, MCL was juxtaposed with metastatic melanoma within the same biopsy specimen. Fluorescence in situ hybridization studies, when available, demonstrated the characteristic t(11,14) translocation. Direct immunofluorescence was performed on one case and showed immunoglobulin M (IgM) expression on the tumor cells. Follow-up was available in 7 cases (mean 42 months, range 6–78 months) and revealed death from disease for 6 patients that occurred within 1 week to 11 months (mean 4 months) after cutaneous involvement. In our series, 6/9 cases demonstrated blastoid, pleomorphic, or marginal zone lymphoma–like morphologies that could potentially mimic other hematolymphoid neoplasms. MCL may show surface IgM expression on DIF or may occur in association with other solid tumors. Immunohistochemistry for cyclin D1 and/or SOX-11 may be helpful for diagnosis, and imaging studies may be necessary to detect systemic involvement when cutaneous involvement is the first manifestation of the disease.
