Subjective sleep disturbances at the time of diagnosis in patients with polymyalgia rheumatica and in patients with seronegative elderly-onset rheumatoid arthritis. A pilot study
Authors: Manzo Ciro , Castagna Alberto 
Published: September 2020

ObjectivesTo investigate subjective sleep disturbances in patients with recent-onset polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) and in patients with recent-onset seronegative elderly-onset rheumatoid arthritis (SEORA).Material and methodsThe study involved patients consecutively referred to two outpatient clinics from January to June 2018, with a diagnosis of PMR according to 2012 European League Against Rheumatism and American College of Rheumatology provisional criteria, and patients with a diagnosis of SEORA according to 1987 American Rheumatism Association criteria + age + absence of rheumatoid factor and anti-citrullinated peptide antibodies. All patients were naive to glucocorticoid (GC) therapy. After informed consent, we asked the patients to fill out a questionnaire including the Medical Outcomes Study – Sleep Scale (MOS-SS), pain Visual Analogic Scale (VAS), Cumulative Illness Rating Scale (CIRS), Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI), and how many minutes their morning stiffness (MS) lasted, at baseline and after 1 (T1) and 12 (T2) months. Differences between groups were calculated with the t-test; all p-values were two-sided and p < 0.05 was used to determine statistical significance. The study was approved by the local ethics committee and carried out in accordance with the Helsinki Declaration.ResultsThe MOS-SS scores and MS duration were the only variables to show at T0 a significant difference between the two groups. In particular, MOS-SS scores were 47.6 ±8.4 (PMR) and 28.26 ±12.4 (SEORA), with p-values = 0.000. The MS duration was 90 ±9.9 minutes and 45 ±5.5 minutes, with p-value = 0.000. At T1 and T2, MOS-SS scores and MS duration decreased in the two groups, and no significant differences were found.ConclusionsThe study suggests that the assessment of subjective sleep disturbances can be useful in the differential diagnosis between recent-onset PMR and SEORA.

Published: September 2020

Context.—
As teaching hospitals institute social distancing and defer nonemergent procedures to cope with the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, the need for daily on-site presence, unless necessary, has been reduced for all medical staff, including trainees. Pathology training programs must adapt to these changes to ensure overall safety without significantly compromising training and the educational mission of the institution.

Objective.—
To describe the hybrid on-site and remote anatomic pathology training model in response to the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic that was implemented in our pathology department and report the clinical fellows' responses to the survey about their experiences.

Design.—
The hybrid model was implemented March 25, 2020. Fellows alternate weekly between working on site and working remotely. On site, fellows wear personal protective equipment and maintain social distancing. Remotely, fellows use digital pathology to review cases and supplement with online educational activities. Virtual “coffee breaks,” meditation, and exercise are part of the curriculum. Online platforms, including WebEx, Google Classroom, and Canvas, are used to continue educational activities. The survey was open May 19 through June 8, 2020.

Results.—
Twenty-eight of the 29 clinical fellows (96%) responded. Many of the respondents indicated substantial increase in their skill with using digital pathology and online platforms during the pandemic. The top most helpful resources were the United States and Canadian Academy of Pathology interactive microscopy courses (found very or somewhat helpful by 22 of 23 clinical fellows; 96%), ExpertPath (19 of 23; 82%), the College of American Pathologists virtual learning series (18 of 23; 78%), the World Health Organization Blue Books (16 of 23; 70%), the American Society of Cytopathology webinars (14 of 23; 61%), and our institutional digital slide collection (12 of 23; 52%).

Conclusions.—
Hybrid on-site and remote training can maximize anatomic pathology learning opportunities while maintaining the safety of trainees, hospital personnel, and the community.
Le droit issu de l’Organisation pour l’harmonisation en Afrique du droit des affaires et les sociétés africaines : regard critique sur une illustration du déni de l’essence culturelle du droit
Authors: Bepyassi Ouafo Vicaire 
Published: September 2020

Le droit originaire du traité de l’Organisation pour l’harmonisation en Afrique du droit des affaires (OHADA), applicable au sein des sociétés africaines de cet espace, manifeste actuellement des pesanteurs liées à son enracinement culturel non africain. En effet, les sociétés africaines signataires dudit traité ont décidé en 1993 d’élaborer un droit commun des affaires simple, moderne et adapté pour faciliter le développement de leurs économies. Elles ont, à ce jour, adopté dix actes uniformes qui régulent certains domaines des affaires en vue de réaliser la croissance économique prévue dans le traité. Cependant, la démarche empruntée à cet effet est confuse. D’une part, l’option pour l’uniformisation, au mépris de l’harmonisation attendue des phénomènes culturels africains, et, d’autre part, la transposition dans les sociétés africaines des modèles juridiques occidentaux, notamment les pratiques du droit international, amènent à douter de l’inspiration africaine du droit de l’OHADA. Un quart de siècle après, son bilan n’est pas flatteur et ne permet pas de préjuger de la satisfaction des objectifs du traité. En outre, la révision du traité à Québec en 2008 pour un meilleur ancrage culturel africain de ses normes révèle indubitablement l’intérêt d’asseoir l’essence culturelle du droit.
Le texte qui suit démontre que le droit de l’OHADA, en vigueur dans quelques sociétés africaines, n’est pas un droit africain en ce qu’il n’est pas le miroir des réalités sociétales et culturelles immanentes à celles-ci. Les identités culturelles enchâssées dans la loi assurent son efficacité dans la perspective de promouvoir les objectifs sociétaux. Or, les déconvenues des politiques économiques et les résultats socioéconomiques décevants parmi les sociétés africaines de l’OHADA obligent à remettre en question son identité culturelle. En réalité, il demeure vigoureusement un droit international des affaires applicable aux sociétés africaines.
Effects of Orthotic Insoles on Gait Kinematics and Low-Back Pain in Patients with Mild Leg Length Discrepancy
Authors: Menez Charlotte , Coquart Jérémy , Dodelin Damien , Tourny Claire , L'Hermette Maxime 
Published: September 2020

Background
Mild leg length discrepancy increases biomechanical asymmetry during gait, which leads to low-back pain. Orthotic insoles with a directly integrated heel lift were used to reduce this asymmetry and thus the associated low-back pain. The aim of this study was to analyze the biomechanical adaptations of the locomotor apparatus during gait and the subjective pain ratings before and after the establishment of orthotic insole use.

Methods
Eight patients with mild leg length discrepancy (≤2.0 cm) underwent three-dimensional biomechanical analysis while walking before and after 3 weeks of orthotic insole use. Low-back pain was assessed separately before both measurement sessions using a visual analog scale.

Results
Analysis of the kinematic parameters highlighted individual adaptations. The symmetry index of Dingwell indicated that orthotic insoles had no significant effect on the kinematic gait parameters and an unpredictable effect across patients. Orthotic insole use significantly and systematically (in all of the patients) reduced low-back pain (P < .05), which was correlated with changes in ankle kinematics (P = .02, r = 0.80).

Conclusions
The effects of orthotic insoles on gait symmetry are unpredictable and specific to each patient's individual manner of biomechanical compensation. The reduction in low-back pain seems to be associated with the improved ankle kinematics during gait.

Published: September 2020

Background
The ATQ is a widely used instrument consisting of 30 items that assess the frequency of negative automatic thoughts. However, the extensive length of the ATQ could compromise its measurement efficiency in survey research. Consequently, an 8-item shortened version of the ATQ has been developed. This study aims to analyze the validity of the ATQ-8 in two Spanish samples.

Method
The ATQ-8 was administered to a total sample of 1,148 participants (302 undergraduates and 846 general online population). To analyze convergent construct validity, the questionnaire package also included the Dysfunctional Attitude Scale-Revised (DAS-R), Depression Anxiety and Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21), Acceptance Action Questionnaire-II (AAQ-II), Cognitive Fusion Questionnaire (CFQ), Generalized Pliance Questionnaire (GPQ), and Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS). To analyze internal consistency, we computed Cronbach’s alpha and McDonald’s omega. A confirmatory factor analysis was conducted to test the one-factor structure of the ATQ-8. In so doing, a robust diagonally weighted least square estimation method (Robust DWLS) was adopted using polychoric correlations. Afterward, we analyzed measurement invariance across samples, gender, groupage, and education level. Lastly, we evaluated convergent construct validity by computing Pearson correlations between the ATQ-8 and the remaining instruments.

Results
The internal consistency across samples was adequate (alpha and omega = .89). The one-factor model demonstrated a good fit to the data (RMSEA = 0.10, 90% CI [0.089, 0.112], CFI = 0.98, NNFI = 0.97, and SRMR = 0.048). The ATQ-8 showed scalar metric invariance across samples, gender, groupage, and education level. The ATQ-8 scores were significantly associated with emotional symptoms (DASS-21), satisfaction with life (SWLS), dysfunctional schemas (DAS-R), cognitive fusion (CFQ), experiential avoidance (AAQ-II), and generalized pliance (GPQ). In conclusion, the Spanish version of the ATQ-8 demonstrated adequate psychometric properties in Spanish samples.

AbstractDirect injection of cell‐laden hydrogels shows high potential for tissue regeneration in translational therapy. The traditional cell‐laden hydrogels are often used as bulk space fillers to tissue defects after injection, likely limiting their structural controllability. On the other hand, patterned cell‐laden hydrogel constructs often necessitate invasive surgical procedures. To overcome these problems, herein, a unique strategy is reported for encapsulating living human cells in a pore‐forming gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA)‐based bioink to ultimately produce injectable hierarchically macro‐micro‐nanoporous cell‐laden GelMA hydrogel constructs through 3D extrusion bioprinting. The hydrogel constructs can be fabricated into various shapes and sizes that are defect‐specific. Due to the hierarchically macro‐micro‐nanoporous structures, the cell‐laden hydrogel constructs can readily recover to their original shapes, and sustain high cell viability, proliferation, spreading, and differentiation after compression and injection. In addition, in vivo studies further reveal that the hydrogel constructs can integrate well with the surrounding host tissues. These findings suggest that the unique 3D‐bioprinted pore‐forming GelMA hydrogel constructs are promising candidates for applications in minimally invasive tissue regeneration and cell therapy.

AbstractThis paper describes a new, high‐performance, Pb‐based nanocomposite anode material for lithium‐ion batteries. A unique nanocomposite structure of Pb@PbO core‐shell nanoparticles in a carbon matrix is obtained by using a simple high‐energy ball milling method using the low‐cost starting materials PbO and carbon black. Electrochemical performance tests show its excellent reversible capacity (≈600 mAh g−1) and cycle stability (92% retention at 100th cycle), which are one of the best values reported for Pb‐based anodes in the literature. Synchrotron X‐ray diffraction and absorption techniques revealed the detailed lithium storage mechanism that can be highlighted with the unexpectedly wide reversible Pb redox range (between Pb2+ and Pb4−) and the evolution of Zintl‐type LiyPb structures during the electrochemical lithium reaction. The results provide new insights into the lithium storage mechanism of these Pb‐based materials and their potential as low‐cost, high‐performance anodes.

AbstractCrystalline silicon (c‐Si) solar cells featuring carrier‐selective passivating contacts have become a prominent path to develop highly efficient photovoltaic devices. Development of electron‐selective materials that can provide excellent surface passivation and low contact resistivity to c‐Si substrates while presenting good environmental stability is crucial for practical implementation. Here, an easy approach is demonstrated to achieve low resistivity Ohmic contacts between slightly doped n‐type c‐Si and aluminum electrodes via simple spin‐coating of metal acetylacetone (MAcac) film on a c‐Si surface. Contact resistivity of 1.3 mΩ cm2 (18.2 mΩ cm2 with an a‐Si:H(i) passivating layer) is realized when a thin calcium acetylacetone (CaAcac) interlayer is introduced between c‐Si and Al. An n‐Type c‐Si solar cell with a full area rear a‐Si:H(i)/CaAcac/Al electron‐selective contact is demonstrated with a power conversion efficiency of 21.6%. This work not only demonstrates an approach to develop highly efficient n‐type c‐Si solar cells with effective electron‐selective passivating contacts, but also contributes toward accomplishing a simplified fabrication process for photovoltaic devices, from vacuum to solution processing.

AbstractSolar‐to‐fuel conversion with organic–inorganic hybrid halide perovskites has attracted growing attention as a result of their excellent optoelectronic properties as well as the low temperature of the solution based fabrication process. However, the most comprehensively developed hybrid perovskite materials are comprised of the toxic metal lead, raising concerns about environmental health threats. Herein, a lead‐free bismuth (Bi)‐based hybrid perovskite showing in situ growth of heterojunctions is successfully developed at the interface of methylammonium bismuth iodide (MA3Bi2I9) and tri(dimethylammonium) hexa‐iodobismuthate (DMA3BiI6) by a facile solvent engineering technique. The air‐stable MA3Bi2I9/DMA3BiI6 perovskite heterostructure with enhanced photoinduced charge separation exhibit outstanding visible‐light‐induced photocatalytic activity for H2 evolution in aqueous hydrogen iodide solution. The powdered MA3Bi2I9/DMA3BiI6 heterostructured composite (BBP‐5) shows a H2 evolution rate of 198.2 µmol h−1 g−1 without the addition of Pt co‐catalysts under 100 mW cm−2 of visible‐light (λ ≥ 420 nm) illumination.

AbstractSupramolecular peptide hydrogel (SPH) is a class of biomaterials self‐assembled from peptide‐based gelators through non‐covalent interactions. Among many of its biomedical applications, the potential of SPH in cancer therapy has been vastly explored in the past decade, taking advantage of its good biocompatibility, multifunctionality, and injectability. SPHs can exert localized cancer therapy and induce systemic anticancer immunity to prevent tumor recurrence, depending on the design of SPH. This review first gives a brief introduction to SPH and then outlines the major types of peptide‐based gelators that have been developed so far. The methodologies to tune the physicochemical properties and biological activities are summarized. The recent advances of SPH in cancer therapy as carriers, prodrugs, or drugs are highlighted. Finally, the clinical translation potential and main challenges in this field are also discussed.

AbstractSubambient daytime radiative cooling (SDRC) provides a promising electricity‐ and cryogen‐free pathway for global energy‐efficiency. However, current SDRC systems require stringent surface designs, which are neither cost‐effective nor eco‐friendly, to selectively emit thermal radiation to outer space and simultaneously maximize solar reflectance. Here, a generic method is developed to upgrade the conventional building‐coating materials with a peculiar self‐adaptive SDRC effect through combining particle scattering, sunlight‐excited fluorescence, and mid‐infrared broadband radiation. It is also theoretically proved that heat exchange with the sky can eliminate the use of resonant microstructures and noble metal mirrors in conventional SDRC, and also leads to enhanced daytime cooling yet suppressed nighttime overcooling. When exposed to direct sunlight, the upgraded coating over an aluminum plate can achieve 6 °C (7 °C on a scale‐model building) below the ambient temperature under a solar intensity of 744 W m−2 (850 W m−2), yielding a cooling power of 84.2 W m−2. The results pave the way for practical large‐scale applications of high‐performance SDRC for human thermal comfort in buildings.

AbstractHow do trees support their upright massive bodies? The support comes from the incredibly strong and stiff, and highly crystalline nanoscale fibrils of extended cellulose chains, called cellulose nanofibers. Cellulose nanofibers and their crystalline parts—cellulose nanocrystals, collectively nanocelluloses, are therefore the recent hot materials to incorporate in man‐made sustainable, environmentally sound, and mechanically strong materials. Nanocelluloses are generally obtained through a top‐down process, during or after which the original surface chemistry and interface interactions can be dramatically changed. Therefore, surface and interface engineering are extremely important when nanocellulosic materials with a bottom‐up process are fabricated. Herein, the main focus is on promising chemical modification and nonmodification approaches, aiming to prospect this hot topic from novel aspects, including nanocellulose‐, chemistry‐, and process‐oriented surface and interface engineering for advanced nanocellulosic materials. The reinforcement of nanocelluloses in some functional materials, such as structural materials, films, filaments, aerogels, and foams, is discussed, relating to tailored surface and/or interface engineering. Although some of the nanocellulosic products have already reached the industrial arena, it is hoped that more and more nanocellulose‐based products will become available in everyday life in the next few years.

AbstractFor practical device applications, monolayer transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) films must meet key industry needs for batch processing, including the high‐throughput, large‐scale production of high‐quality, spatially uniform materials, and reliable integration into devices. Here, high‐throughput growth, completed in 12 min, of 6‐inch wafer‐scale monolayer MoS2 and WS2 is reported, which is directly compatible with scalable batch processing and device integration. Specifically, a pulsed metal–organic chemical vapor deposition process is developed, where periodic interruption of the precursor supply drives vertical Ostwald ripening, which prevents secondary nucleation despite high precursor concentrations. The as‐grown TMD films show excellent spatial homogeneity and well‐stitched grain boundaries, enabling facile transfer to various target substrates without degradation. Using these films, batch fabrication of high‐performance field‐effect transistor (FET) arrays in wafer‐scale is demonstrated, and the FETs show remarkable uniformity. The high‐throughput production and wafer‐scale automatable transfer will facilitate the integration of TMDs into Si‐complementary metal‐oxide‐semiconductor platforms.
