ObjectiveTo describe cross‐sectional associations between features observed on ultrasound (US) or clinical joint examination and hand symptoms among community‐dwelling older adults (n = 519), and to determine whether such associations are independent of age, sex, body mass index, and other imaging features.MethodsHand pain, function, and stiffness were assessed using a visual analog scale (VAS) and the Australian/Canadian Hand Osteoarthritis (AUSCAN) index. Standardized clinical and US examinations were performed, and grip strength was assessed using a dynamometer. Data were analyzed using hurdle and linear models and adjusted for demographic factors and other features.ResultsAbnormal findings on joint examination and on US imaging are common in older adults with and without hand pain. Greater numbers of tender joints were associated with greater pain (VAS: β = 2.63 [95% confidence interval (95% CI) 1.88, 3.39]; AUSCAN pain: β = 10.57 [95% CI 4.00, 17.13]), poorer AUSCAN function (β = 4.07 [95% CI 1.28, 6.86]), and poorer grip strength (β = –0.15 [95% CI –0.27, –0.03]). Power Doppler imaging (PDI) synovitis was associated with greater pain (VAS: β = 2.61 [95% CI 1.03, 4.19]; AUSCAN pain: β = 13.07 [95% CI 3.82, 22.32]), but not function. Joint deformity was associated with poorer function (β = 4.51 [95% CI 1.75, 7.26]) and grip strength (β = –0.23 [95% CI –0.40, –0.05]), but not pain. Gray‐scale synovitis was associated only with poorer grip strength (β = –0.22 [95% CI –0.41, –0.04]). Associations with function and grip strength were partially mediated by pain.ConclusionJoints that are tender on palpation or have US‐identified PDI synovitis are potential treatment targets for hand pain. Treating tender joints and preventing hand deformity is required to improve hand function in community‐dwelling older adults.

AbstractThe exploration of earth‐abundant and high‐efficiency bifunctional electrocatalysts for overall water splitting is of vital importance for the future of the hydrogen economy. Regulation of electronic structure through heteroatom doping represents one of the most powerful strategies to boost the electrocatalytic performance of hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Herein, a rational design of O‐incorporated CoP (denoted as O‐CoP) nanosheets, which synergistically integrate the favorable thermodynamics through modification of electronic structures with accelerated kinetics through nanostructuring, is reported. Experimental results and density functional theory simulations manifest that the appropriate O incorporation into CoP can dramatically modulate the electronic structure of CoP and alter the adsorption free energies of reaction intermediates, thus promoting the HER and OER activities. Specifically, the optimized O‐CoP nanosheets exhibit efficient bifunctional performance in alkaline electrolyte, requiring overpotentials of 98 and 310 mV to deliver a current density of 10 mA cm−2 for HER and OER, respectively. When served as bifunctional electrocatalysts for overall water splitting, a low cell voltage of 1.60 V is needed for achieving a current density of 10 mA cm−2. This proposed anion‐doping strategy will bring new inspiration to boost the electrocatalytic performance of transition metal–based electrocatalysts for energy conversion applications.

AbstractInspired by the human somatosensory system, pressure applied to multiple pressure sensors is received in parallel and combined into a representative signal pattern, which is subsequently processed using machine learning. The pressure signals are combined using a wireless system, where each sensor is assigned a specific resonant frequency on the reflection coefficient (S11) spectrum, and the applied pressure changes the magnitude of the S11 pole with minimal frequency shift. This allows the differentiation and identification of the pressure applied to each sensor. The pressure sensor consists of polypyrrole‐coated microstructured poly(dimethylsiloxane) placed on top of electrodes, operating as a capacitive sensor. The high dielectric constant of polypyrrole enables relatively high pressure‐sensing performance. The coils are vertically stacked to enable the reader to receive the signals from all of the sensors simultaneously at a single location, analogous to the junction between neighboring primary neurons to a secondary neuron. Here, the stacking order is important to minimize the interference between the coils. Furthermore, convolutional neural network (CNN)‐based machine learning is utilized to predict the applied pressure of each sensor from unforeseen S11 spectra. With increasing training, the prediction accuracy improves (with mean squared error of 0.12), analogous to humans' cognitive learning ability.

AbstractUnderstanding the effects of lattice strain on oxygen surface and diffusion kinetics in oxides is a controversial subject that is critical for developing efficient energy storage and conversion materials. In this work, high‐quality epitaxial thin films of the model perovskite La0.5Sr0.5Mn0.5Co0.5O3−δ (LSMC), under compressive or tensile strain, are characterized with a combination of in situ and ex situ bulk and surface‐sensitive techniques. The results demonstrate a nonlinear correlation of mechanical and chemical properties as a function of the operation conditions. It is observed that the effect of strain on reducibility is dependent on the “effective strain” induced on the chemical bonds. In‐plain strain, and in particular the relative BO length bond, is the key factor controlling which of the B‐site cation can be reduced preferentially. Furthermore, the need to use a set of complimentary techniques to isolate different chemically induced strain effects is proven. With this, it is confirmed that tensile strain favors the stabilization of a more reduced lattice, accompanied by greater segregation of strontium secondary phases and a decrease of oxygen exchange kinetics on LSMC thin films.

AbstractPerovskite solar cells (PVSCs) have achieved excellent power conversion efficiency (PCE) but still suffer from instability issues. Defect passivation is an important route to simultaneously increase the efficiency and stability of PVSCs. Here, a strategy of incorporating silica oligomer in perovskite films for surface and grain boundary defect passivation is reported. Silica oligomer passivation agent (PA) is in situ formed through hydrolysis and condensation reaction of tetraethyl orthosilicate additive in perovskite precursor. The passivation mechanism is elucidated by density functional theory calculation, revealing stable chelating interaction and hydrogen bond interaction between PA and perovskite. Spectroscopic and electrical characterizations demonstrate that silica oligomer can enlarge grain sizes, prolong carrier lifetime, enhance charge carrier dynamics, and reduce trap state densities in perovskite films. Planar PVSCs with passivation achieve a highly improved PCE of 19.64% with a stabilized efficiency of 18.81%. More importantly, unencapsulated perovskite devices with passivation retain nearly 90% of original efficiency after 1000 h storage under ambient condition and sustained 87% of initial performance after high‐temperature (120 °C) thermal accelerated aging, showing highly enhanced moisture and thermal stability. Therefore, the present study provides a pathway to the future design and optimization of PVSCs with higher efficiency and greater stability.

AbstractKey solutions for material selection, processing, and performance of environmentally friendly high‐power generators are addressed. High voltage and high power generation of flexible devices using piezoelectric Bi0.5(Na0.78K0.22)TiO3 nanoparticle filler–polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) elastomeric matrix for a lead‐free piezoelectric composite film on a cellulose paper substrate is demonstrated. To elucidate the principle of power generation by the piezoelectric composite configuration, the dielectric and piezoelectric characteristics of the composite film are investigated and the results are compared with those of theoretical modeling. The paper‐based composite generator produces a large output voltage of ≈100 V and an average current of ≈20 µA (max. ≈30 µA) through tapping stimulation, which is a record‐high performance compared to previously reported flexible lead‐free piezoelectric composite energy harvesters. Moreover, a triboelectric‐hybridized piezoelectric composite device using a micro‐patterned PDMS shows a much higher output voltage of ≈250 V and output power of ≈0.5 mW, which drives 300 light‐emitting diodes. These results prove that a new class of paper‐based and lead‐free energy harvesting device provides a strong possibility for enlarging the functionality and the capability of high‐power scavengers in flexible and wearable electronics such as sensors and medical devices.

AbstractLow‐dimensional magnetism has been boosted by the recent discovery of the ferromagnetism in layered two‐dimensional (2D) semiconductors. Although the macroscopic magnetic moments of 2D ferromagnets are weak, the anomalous Hall effect (AHE) can serve as a versatile electric probe to their magnetic properties. Here, the nonvolatile electric‐field manipulation of the AHE in an ultrathin metallic ferromagnet with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy at room temperature is reported, which is achieved by the electrostatic modulation of the longitudinal resistivity via a ferroelectric substrate without varying magnetization. Therefore, this work demonstrates an electric‐field‐controlled room‐temperature memory device based on the zero‐magnetic‐field anomalous Hall resistance of an ultrathin ferromagnet. More importantly, the experimental results disentangle magnetization and anomalous Hall resistance. As a result, the study reveals a linear decrease of anomalous Hall conductivity with normal conductivity, which is distinct from previous scaling relations. Accordingly, this work manifests a universe avenue to harnessing the AHE in low‐dimensional magnetic materials.

AbstractThe quest for high energy density and high power density electrode materials for lithium‐ion batteries has been intensified to meet strongly growing demand for powering electric vehicles. Conventional layered oxides such as Co‐rich LiCoO2 and Ni‐rich Li(NixMnyCoz)O2 that rely on only transition metal redox reaction have been faced with growing constraints due to soaring price on cobalt. Therefore, Mn‐rich electrode materials excluding cobalt would be desirable with respect to available resources and low cost. Here, the strategy of achieving both high energy density and high power density in Mn‐rich electrode materials by controlling the solubility of atoms between phases in a composite is reported. The resulting Mn‐rich material that is composed of defective spinel phase and partially cation‐disordered layered phase can achieve the highest energy density, ≈1100 W h kg−1 with superior power capability up to 10C rate (3 A g−1) among other reported Mn‐rich materials. This approach provides new opportunities to design Mn‐rich electrode materials that can achieve high energy density and high power density for Li‐ion batteries.

Published: December 2019

AbstractLiquid–liquid mass transfer performance of a novel pore‐array intensified tube‐in‐tube microchannel (PA‐TMC) was investigated with the water‐benzoic acid‐kerosene system. Both mass transfer efficiency (E) and volumetric mass transfer coefficient (K
La) are found to increase simultaneously with the flow rate, but decrease with total number of pores and rows. However, E increases but K
La decreases with the annular length. In particular, the pore size shows an optimal value at 0.3 mm due to the interplay problem of the radial adjacent pores. Computational fluid dynamics simulations reveal that the high kinetic energy generated by the pore‐array section plays a significant role in mass transfer process. The artificial neural network model is established to correlate K
La with the investigated parameters of PA‐TMC. The comparison of K
La with other types of contactors indicates that PA‐TMC has superior mass transfer performance and high throughput for a broad industrial application.

AbstractRenpenning syndrome (OMIM: 309500) is a rare X‐linked disorder that causes intellectual disability, microcephaly, short stature, a variety of eye anomalies, and characteristic craniofacial features. This condition results from pathogenic variation of PQBP1, a polyglutamine‐binding protein involved in transcription and pre‐mRNA splicing. Renpenning syndrome has only been reported in affected males. Carrier females do not usually have clinical features, and in reported families with Renpenning syndrome, most female carriers exhibit favorable skewing of X‐chromosome inactivation. We describe a female with syndromic features typical of Renpenning syndrome. She was identified by exome sequencing to have a de novo heterozygous c.459_462delAGAG mutation in PQBP1 (Xp11.23), affecting the AG hexamer in exon 4, which is the most common causative mutation in this syndrome. Streaky hypopigmentation of the skin was observed, supporting a hypothesized presence of an actively expressed, PQBP1 mutation‐bearing X‐chromosome in some cells. X‐inactivation studies on peripheral blood cells demonstrated complete skewing in both the proband and her mother with preferential inactivation of the maternal X chromosome in the child. We demonstrated expression of the PQBP1 mutant transcript in leukocytes of the affected girl. Therefore, it is highly likely that the PQBP1 mutation arose from the paternal X chromosome.

AbstractThe new 2017 diagnostic criteria for hypermobile Ehlers–Danlos Syndrome (hEDS) provide a framework for diagnosing hEDS but are more stringent than the previous Villefranche criteria. Our clinical experience at the GoodHope EDS clinic was that the 2017 criteria left many highly symptomatic patients without a diagnosis of hEDS. We conducted a retrospective cohort study to confirm our clinic experience and assess the accuracy of the 2017 diagnostic criteria for hEDS in patients who had a previous hEDS diagnosis based on the Villefranche criteria. Our study found that 15% (n = 20 of 131) of patients with a prior diagnosis of hEDS met the 2017 diagnostic criteria, and many of the traits used to distinguish hEDS were not significantly more frequent in patients who met 2017 criteria versus those who did not. In both groups objective systemic manifestations were found less frequently than subjective systemic manifestations. Beighton score (BS) as assessed by primary care practitioner was found to be higher than assessment by EDS practitioner in 81% (n = 74 of 91) of cases. Generalized joint hypermobility was confirmed in only 46% (n = 51 of 111) of patients who had a previous diagnosis of hEDS. Higher BS did not correlate with increased number of systemic manifestations in our cohort. Common comorbidities of hEDS were found with similar frequency in those who met 2017 criteria and those who did not. Based on our cohort, the 2017 hEDS diagnostic criteria require refinement to improve its diagnostic accuracy.

AbstractVor dem Hintergrund aktueller Energieprobleme haben Solarzellen weltweit eine große Aufmerksamkeit erfahren. Die Entwicklung der Solarstromerzeugung wird von den hohen Kosten herkömmlicher Solarzellen auf der Basis von kristallinem Silicium gebremst. Aus diesem Grund steigt das Interesse an Hybrid‐Solarzellen (HSCs) auf der Basis von organischen Materialien sowie Si. Diese kombinieren die Vorteile einer vorhandenen ausgereiften Technologie und eines hohen Wirkungsgrades mit Vorteilen organischer Solarzellen wie die Herstellung bei niedriger Temperatur und abstimmbare optoelektronische Eigenschaften. Die verwendeten organischen Materialien sind P3HT, Kohlenstoff‐Nanoröhren, Graphen und PEDOT:PSS. Dieser Aufsatz beschäftigt sich mit der Leistung von PEDOT:PSS/Si‐HSCs sowie mit den Methoden zur Steigerung ihres Wirkungsgrades, d. h. mit der PEDOT:PSS‐Modifizierung, der Optimierung des Lichtfalleneffekts, der Passivierung der Si‐Oberfläche, dem Einbau einer Grenzflächenschicht, der Verbesserung des Rückkontakts und mit der Optimierung der metallischen Deckelektrode. Der vorliegende Artikel betrifft einen Themenbereich, der in einschlägigen Publikationen bisher wenig Berücksichtigung fand, und soll Perspektiven für die künftige Entwicklung von PEDOT:PSS/Si‐HSCs aufzeigen.
