IL LIBRO DELLE RISPOSTE ARABE (KITĀB AL-AǦWIBA AL-ʿARABIYYA) DI IBN ʿARABĪ. Edizione, traduzione e note a cura di Maurizio Marconi
Authors: Marconi Maurizio 
Published: July 2020

Riassunto: Questo testo è la prima traduzione in lingua occidentale di un’opera poco nota di Ibn ʿArabī, redatta nel primo decennio della sua permanenza a Damasco per un amico che non riusciva a comprendere gli insegnamenti ricevuti dal suo Maestro e che aveva chiesto ad Ibn ʿArabī di spiegarli. Commentando frase per frase gli insegnamenti di quel Maestro Ibn ʿArabī espone le varie fasi della Via, dagli inizi fino a gradi elevati di realizzazione spirituale. La traduzione è accompagnata da copiose note che riportano passi analoghi di altre opere di Ibn ʿArabī, soprattutto delle al-Futūḥāt al-makkiyya. Il testo include inoltre una edizione araba dell’opera basata sui due manoscritti più antichi, confrontati, laddove necessario, con quattro manoscritti più recenti. Data la lunghezza del testo è stato inserito anche un indice analitico.
Abstract: This text is the first translation in Western language of a little known work of Ibn ʿArabī, written during the first decade of his stay in Damascus for a friend who did not understand the teachings received from his Master, and who had asked Ibn ʿArabī to explain them. Providing a commentary, sentence by sentence, for the teachings of that Master, Ibn ʿArabī expounds the different stages of the way, from the beginnings up to high degrees of spiritual realization. The translation is provided with copious annotations, quoting similar passages drawn from other works of Ibn ʿArabī, mainly from the al-Futūḥāt al-makkiyya. The text includes also an Arabic edition of the work, based on the two oldest manuscripts, compared, when needed, with four later manuscripts. Due to the length of the work an analytical index has been added.

En los estudios de Medicina del Campus Mar de Barcelona (UPF-UAB, aunque todavía no se ha implementado la prueba ECOE recomendada por la Conferencia Nacional de Decanos de Facultades de Medicina (CNDFM), todos los estudiantes realizan durante su último año una ECOE diseñada por la administración sanitaria catalana. Nos planteamos realizar un estudio para establecer la posible concordancia entre los resultados en la prueba ECOE externa y los obtenidos en nuestro centro. También se pretendió establecer la relación entre los resultados en la ECOE y en la prueba MIR. El estudio se realizó con todos los graduados de las cuatro primeras promociones del grado en Medicina de la UPF-UAB que habían realizado la prueba ECOE y la prueba MIR. No se encontraron diferencias entre sexos en los resultados de la ECOE. Tanto en hombres como en mujeres, existió una relación positiva y significativa entre los resultados de la ECOE y los del expediente final y los de la prueba MIR. Los resultados son valorados positivamente ya que el expediente final está en consonancia con el rendimiento en una prueba donde presuntamente se evalúan de forma adecuada las competencias más relevantes que tendrían que tener los graduados en Medicina. La relación positiva entre ECOE y MIR permite cierta tranquilidad hasta que en algún momento pueda implementarse una prueba no exclusivamente cognitiva para el acceso a la formación especializada.
In the Medicine studies of the Campus Mar in Barcelona (UPF-UAB) the OSCE test recommended by the Conference of Deans of Spain has not yet been implemented, but all the students take an OSCE designed by the Catalan health administration during their final year. We plan to carry out a study to establish the possible relationship between the results in the external ECOE test and those obtained in our Medical School. We also tried to establish the relationship between the results in the ECOE and in the MIR test. The study was carried out with all the graduates of the first four promotions of the UPF-UAB degree in Medicine who had taken the ECOE test and the MIR test. No differences between sexes were found in the OSCE achievement. In both men and women, there was a positive and significant relationship between the results of the OSCE and those of the final score and those of the MIR test. The results are positively valued since the final score is in line with the performance in a test where presumably the most relevant competencies that graduates in Medicine should have are adequately evaluated. The positive relationship between OSCE and MIR allows some peace of mind until at some point an exam can be implemented that assesses clinical and communication skills for access to specialized training.

Genotypic characterization and genome comparison reveal insights into potential vaccine coverage and genealogy of Neisseria meningitidis in military camps in Vietnam

Background
Neisseria meningitidis remains the main cause of sporadic meningitis and sepsis in military camps in Vietnam. Yet, very limited molecular data of their genotypic and epidemiological characteristics are available from Vietnam, and particularly the military environment. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) has proven useful for meningococcal disease surveillance and guiding preventative vaccination programs. Previously, we characterized key genetic and epidemiological features of an invasive N. meningitidis B isolate from a military unit in Vietnam. Here, we extend these findings by sequencing two additional invasive N. meningitidis B isolated from cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of two meningitis cases at another military unit and compared their genomic sequences and features. We also report the sequence types and antigenic profiles of 25 historical and more recently emerged N. meningitidis isolates from these units and other units in proximity.

Methods
Strains were sequenced using the Illumina HiSeq platform, de novo assembled and annotated. Genomes were compared within and between military units, as well as against the global N. meningitidis collection and other isolates from the Southeast Asia region using PubMLST. Variations at the nucleotide level were determined, and phylogenetic relationships were estimated. Antigenic genotypes and vaccine coverage were analyzed using gMATS and PubMLST. Susceptibility of isolates against commonly used antibiotic agents was examined using E-test.

Results
Genome comparison revealed a high level of similarity among isolates both within and between units. All isolates showed resistance to chloramphenicol and carried identical catP gene with other Southeast Asian isolates, suggesting a common lineage. Their antigenic genotypes predicted no coverage by either Bexsero®or Trumenba®, and nucleotide variation analysis revealed diverse new, unassigned alleles at multiple virulence loci of all strains. Groups of singleton and unique novel sequence types extending beyond individual camps were found from epidemiological data of 25 other isolates. Our results add to the sparse published molecular data of N. meningitidis in the military units in Vietnam, highlight their diversity, distinct genetic features and antibiotic resistance pattern, and emphasize the need for further studies on the molecular characteristics of N. meningitidis in Vietnam.

AbstractMolecular engineering has emerged as an approach to integrate molecular‐level science and engineering to develop solutions to urgent societal problems. It aims to bring together molecular design—both rational and evolutionary, chemistry, and assembly to achieve new (bio)materials and device functionality. Molecular engineering also aims to bring researchers together to create new research interfaces between computation, machine learning, (bio)chemical synthesis and technology creation perspectives to accelerate new technologies for water and energy resources, information security, and human health.
A Skin‐Inspired Substrate with Spaghetti‐Like Multi‐Nanofiber Network of Stiff and Elastic Components for Stretchable Electronics

AbstractMimicking the skin's non‐linear self‐limiting mechanical characteristics is of great interest. Skin is soft at low strain but becomes stiff at high strain and thereby can protect human tissues and organs from high mechanical loads. Herein, the design of a skin‐inspired substrate is reported based on a spaghetti‐like multi‐nanofiber network (SMNN) of elastic polyurethane (PU) nanofibers (NFs) sandwiched between stiff poly(vinyldenefluoride‐co‐trifluoroethylene) (P(VDF‐TrFE)) NFs layers embedded in polydimethylsiloxane elastomer. The elastic moduli of the stretchable skin‐inspired substrate can be tuned in a range that matches well with the mechanical properties of skins by adjusting the loading ratios of the two NFs. Confocal imaging under stretching indicates that PU NFs help maintain the stretchability while adding stiff P(VDF‐TrFE) NFs to control the self‐limiting characteristics. Interestingly, the Au layer on the substrate indicates a negligible change in the resistance under cyclic (up to 7000 cycles at 35% strain) and dynamic stretching (up to 35% strain), which indicates the effective absorption of stress by the SMNN. A stretchable chemoresistive gas sensor on the skin‐inspired substrate also demonstrates a reasonable stability in NO2 sensing response under strain up to 30%. The skin‐inspired substrate with SMNN provides a step toward ultrathin stretchable electronics.

AbstractCombinations of hydrogels and solids provide high level functionality for devices such as tissue engineering scaffolds and soft machines. However, the weak bonding between hydrogels and solids hampers functionality. Here, a versatile strategy to develop mechanically robust solid−hydrogel hybrid materials using surface embedded radicals generated through plasma immersion ion implantation (PIII) of polymeric surfaces is reported. Evidence is provided that the reactive radicals play a dual role: inducing surface‐initiated, spontaneous polymerization of hydrogels; and binding the hydrogels to the surfaces. Acrylamide and silk hydrogels are formed and covalently attached through spontaneous reactions with the radicals on PIII activated polymer surfaces without cross‐linking agents or initiators. The hydrogel amount increases with incubation time, monomer concentration, and temperature. Stability tests indicate that 95% of the hydrogel is retained even after 4 months in PBS solution. T‐peel tests show that failure occurs at the tape−hydrogel interface and the hydrogel‐PIII‐treated PTFE interfacial adhesion strength is over 300 N m−1. Cell assays show no adhesion to the as‐synthesized hydrogels; however, hydrogels synthesized with fibronectin enable cell adhesion and spreading. These results show that polymers functionalized with surface‐embedded radicals provide excellent solid platforms for the generation of robust solid−hydrogel hybrid structures for biomedical applications.

AbstractImmobilization of biosensors on surfaces is a key step toward development of devices for real‐world applications. Here the preparation, characterization, and evaluation of a surface‐bound transcription factor–nucleic acid complex for analyte detection as an alternative to conventional systems employing aptamers or antibodies are described. The sensor consists of a gold surface modified with thiolated Cy5 fluorophore‐labeled DNA and an allosteric transcription factor (TetR) linked to a quantum dot (QD). Upon addition of anhydrotetracycline (aTc)—the analyte—the TetR‐QDs release from the surface‐bound DNA, resulting in loss of the Förster resonance energy transfer signal. The sensor responds in a dose‐dependent manner over the relevant range of 0–200 µm aTc with a limit of detection of 80 nm. The fabrication of the sensor and the subsequent real‐time quantitative measurements establish a framework for the design of future surface‐bound, affinity‐based biosensors using allosteric transcription factors for molecular recognition.
Designing Decellularized Extracellular Matrix‐Based Bioinks for 3D Bioprinting
Authors: Abaci Alperen , Guvendiren Murat 
Published: July 2020

Abstract3D bioprinting is an emerging technology to fabricate tissues and organs by precisely positioning cells into 3D structures using printable cell‐laden formulations known as bioinks. Various bioinks are utilized in 3D bioprinting applications; however, developing the perfect bioink to fabricate constructs with biomimetic microenvironment and mechanical properties that are similar to native tissues is a challenging task. In recent years, decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM)‐based bioinks have received an increasing attention in 3D bioprinting applications, since they are derived from native tissues and possess unique, complex tissue‐specific biochemical properties. This review focuses on designing dECM‐based bioinks for tissue and organ bioprinting, including commonly used decellularization and decellularized tissue characterization methods, bioink formulation and characterization, applications of dECM‐based bioinks, and most recent advancements in dECM‐based bioink design.

Published: July 2020

AbstractMicrosurgical tools offer a path to less invasive clinical procedures with improved access, reduced trauma, and better recovery outcomes. There are a variety of rigid and flexible endoscopic devices that have significantly advanced diagnostics and microsurgery. However, they rely on wires or tethers for guidance and operation of small end‐effector tools. While untethered physiologically responsive microgrippers have been previously shown to excise tissue from deep gastrointestinal locations in animal models, there are challenges associated with guiding them along paths and moving them to specific locations. In this communication, the magnetic dipole moment of untethered thermally responsive grippers is optimized for efficient coupling to external magnetic resonance (MR) fields. Gripper encapsulation in a millimeter sized wax pellet reduces the friction with the surrounding tissue and MR Navigation (MRN) of a 700 µm sized microgripper is realized within narrow channels in tissue phantoms and in an ex vivo porcine esophagus. The results show convincing proof‐of‐concept evidence that it is possible to sequentially image, move, and guide a submillimeter functional microsurgical tool in tissue conduits using a commercial preclinical MR system, and when combined with prior demonstrations of physiologically responsive in vivo biopsy are an important step towards the clinical translation of untethered microtools.

Published: July 2020

AbstractThe classification of colorectal cancer (CRC) plays a pivotal role in predicting a patient's prognosis and determining treatment strategies. The consensus molecular subtype (CMS) classification system was constructed by analyzing genetic information from 18 CRC data sets, containing 4151 CRC samples. CRC was classified into four subtypes with distinct molecular and biological characteristics: CMS1 (microsatellite instability immune), CMS2 (canonical), CMS3 (metabolic), and CMS4 (mesenchymal). Since their designation in 2015, these classifications have been applied to basic and translational research of CRC, with the hope that understanding these subsets will influence a clinician's approach to therapeutic treatment and improve clinical outcomes. We reviewed CRC investigations in accordance with CMSs published in the last 5 years to further explore the clinical significance of these subtypes and identify underlying trends that may direct relevant future research. We determined that CMSs linked common features of CRC cell lines and PDX models in various studies. Furthermore, associations between prognosis and clinicopathological findings, including pathological grade and the stage of carcinogenesis, tumor budding, and tumor location, were correlated with CMS classification. Novel prognostic factors were identified, and the relationship between chemotherapeutic drug resistance and CMS has been fortified by our compilation of research; thus, indicating that this review provides advanced insight into clinical questions and treatment strategies for CRC.
CO2 process intensification of algae oil extraction to biodiesel

Published: July 2020

AbstractAlgae‐to‐biodiesel processes are hindered by high costs and low energy return on investment.1,2. Herein, three foci in research improve algae‐to‐biodiesel processes by: (1) reducing high installation and energy costs in the CO2 sequestration, cultivation, and harvesting stages; (2) improving oil extraction and biodiesel generation; and (3) increasing utilization of the proteins in lipid‐extracted biomass (e.g., for animal feed), as well as the omega‐3 fatty acids for nutraceuticals and food supplements. A process is introduced that uses carbon dioxide to aid in all three of these foci. CO2 is used first in the form of microbubbles to lyse algae cell walls, releasing triglyceride oils. CO2 also aids with transesterification of these triglycerides using methanol. At low temperatures (353.15–368.15 K) and intermediate pressures (5–10 MMPa), carbon dioxide causes methanol to dissolve partially in the triglyceride phase and triglyceride to dissolve partially in the methanol phase, increasing the transesterification reaction rate. Due to the nondestructive nature of these processes, other metabolites can also be harvested providing improvements in both mass and economic efficiency with an overall sharp reduction in the modeled price of biodiesel.
