Published: June 2020

AbstractThis study investigates convective and non‐convective high‐wind events (CWEs and NCWEs) across the eastern U.S. during a 43‐year climatological period (1973–2015) for spatial and temporal variations in wind speed and direction. Hourly surface wind observations were gathered from the National Centers for Environmental Information Data Center Integrated Surface Database (NCEI‐ISD). This dataset includes quality‐controlled wind observations from 391 first‐order weather stations in the eastern U.S. Findings show that high‐wind events (HWEs) meeting established National Weather Service criteria were most concentrated in the West North Central and South regions (High Plains) and fewer CWEs occurred during the study period compared to NCWEs. Gust CWEs increased significantly (1.95 days year−1) while sustained NCWEs decreased significantly (−0.58 days year−1). Mean wind directions were observed primarily in the southwest and northwest quadrants. Mean wind speed decreased at a statistically significant level for sustained CWEs, gust CWEs, and sustained NCWEs. Developing an extensive climatological understanding of convective and non‐convective high‐wind events is beneficial to mitigate damage and fatalities caused by these events.

Authors: Vargas‐Pérez Marta , Egea González Francisco Javier , Garrido Frenich Antonia 
Published: June 2020

AbstractBACKGROUNDFluopyram is a pesticide widely used in tomato and cucumber crops cultivation to control fungal diseases that develop especially in environments with moderate temperatures and high humidity, such as in a greenhouse. The pathway of fluopyram dissipation has been monitored in cucumber and cherry tomato under greenhouse conditions.RESULTSIn the greenhouse trials, cherry tomato and cucumber were treated by irrigation water with the commercial product at the manufacturer’s recommended dose and double dose. High‐resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) coupled to ultra‐high‐performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) has been selected as the technique to obtain the identification of fluopyram and metabolites. The fate of fluopyram in greenhouse tomato and cucumber was investigated over 44 days. The metabolic pathway of fluopyram was: in a first step there was a primary transformation to fluopyram‐7‐hydroxy and fluopyram‐8‐hydroxy, isomeric compounds, and in a second phase to fluopyram‐benzamide and fluopyram‐pyridyl‐carboxylic acid. The behavior of fluopyram does not fit any type of kinetic classical model of degradation.CONCLUSIONSGreenhouse trials revealed that the fluopyram is a very persistent compound, and their terminal residues do not exceed maximum residue level (MRL) at the end of the study. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry

AbstractBackground and ObjectivesThe impact of metabolic syndrome (MetS) on surgical outcome, mostly in patients with HBV‐related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who underwent hepatectomy.MethodsA propensity score matching analysis was conducted. Patients were categorized into two groups MetS‐related hepatocellular carcinoma (MetS‐HCC) and 1:1 matched non‐MetS‐related HCC (non‐MetS‐HCC). Surgical outcomes were compared between the two groups.ResultsSeventy‐four MetS‐HCC patients and 74 propensity score‐matched non‐MetS‐HCC patients were selected for analysis. The incidence of surgical site infection was higher in the MetS‐HCC group than in the non‐MetS‐HCC group (12.16% vs 0%, P < .005). There was no difference in the recurrence‐free survival and overall survival between patients in the MetS‐HCC group and in non‐MetS‐HCC group (P > .05). Microvascular invasion and severe postoperative complications were independent risk factors for recurrence‐free survival and overall survival.ConclusionsHepatectomy for patients with mostly HBV‐related HCC in the presence of MetS can result in a higher rate of postoperative surgical site infection compared with those in the absence of MetS, but long‐term survival rates are comparable.

Published: June 2020

AbstractLarge, predatory, non‐indigenous species such as the cladoceran, Bythotrephes longimanus, can have a profound effect on aquatic food webs, but determining the prey consumed by such species is problematic because they shred prey externally and consume only soft body tissues. We assessed the usefulness of an immunochemical approach, in which putative zooplankton prey were homogenized and polyclonal antibodies against total proteins were raised in rabbits and purified against predator proteins. Using either dot‐blot or enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay‐plate formats, assays easily detected prey proteins in single B. longimanus. Issues encountered included some degree of cross‐reaction with predator proteins and among prey species for some antisera and questions concerning determination of a correct blank value for assays, however, there are feasible approaches to resolving these issues. Immunochemical assays were readily applied in to a total of 185 individual B. longimanus in the Lake Michigan pelagic ecosystem in summer of 2008 and 2009 and indicated ingestion of cladoceran and copepod species, typically described in the literature, but also dreissenid veliger larvae and the large copepod Limnocalanus macrurus, not usually considered prey for Bythotrephes. Assays results showed some degree of correlation with numerical abundances of zooplankton prey in the water column, suggesting generalist feeding. Protein immunochemical assays offer a quick, sensitive and practical approach to examining planktonic food‐web questions that are compatible with, but have certain advantages over, alternatives such as nucleic acid techniques.
Color research in marketing: Theoretical and technical considerations for conducting rigorous and impactful color research
Authors: Labrecque Lauren I. 
Published: June 2020

AbstractSince the beginning of the 21st century, there has been a surge in interest in color research (and in sensory marketing in general). In addition to discussing emerging color research contained in this special issue, this article also provides a discussion of theoretical frameworks for understanding color and provides technical guidelines for creating color stimuli. These guidelines include a discussion of the three dimensions of color (hue, saturation, and value) and provide researchers with guidance for controlling these dimensions when creating color stimuli. Additionally, this article discusses additive (red, green, blue) versus subtractive (cyan, magenta, yellow, and key) color models, gamut, and other considerations, such as screening participants for colorblindness, that future researchers may find useful for conducting rigorous color research.

AbstractBackgroundThis study aimed to define the molecular basis for 12 prenatal cases of Cri‐du‐chat syndrome (CdCS) and the potential genotyping‐phenotyping association.MethodsKaryotyping and single nucleotide polymorphism array analyses for copy number variants were performed.ResultsNine cases had 5p terminal deletions and three had 5p interstitial deletions, and these cases had variable deletion sizes with partial overlapping. Phenotypically, besides intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) and brain as well as heart abnormalities, hypospadias, and lung dysplasia were observed. Potential genetic causes for specific phenotypes in these cases were identified.ConclusionThis study defined the molecular bases for the patients of CdCS, which is important for genetic counseling for these families. The findings of present study expand the clinical features of CdCS in the fetal period, and provided important information for further refining the genotypic–phenotypic correlations for this syndrome.

ObjectiveThe hippocampus is a key structure in feeding behaviors and weight regulation. Obesity may lead to disruptions in hippocampal structure. In animals, obesity‐related factors (e.g., high‐fat/sugar foods) are associated with hippocampal insult (e.g., alterations in the blood brain barrier). In humans, individuals with obesity, relative to healthy weight, have smaller hippocampal volumes. Few studies have examined the association between body weight and the hippocampus during adolescence, a critical brain development period. This study examined hippocampal volume and tissue signal intensity in adolescents across the weight spectrum.MethodsStructural magnetic resonance imaging and anthropomorphic data were available for 102 12‐ to 18‐year‐old adolescents (53% female; 15.07 [SD 1.84] years; standardized BMI [BMIz] scores using the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention growth charts: 0.54 [SD 1.17]) from the Pediatric Imaging, Neurocognition, and Genetics database. Linear regression models controlling for age, sex, genetic ancestry, scanner, and household income examined the relationship between BMIz, hippocampal volume, and T2‐weighted hippocampal signal intensity.ResultsBMIz was negatively associated with T2‐weighted hippocampal signal intensity in the left (t = −3.05; P = 0.003; r = −0.21) and right (t = −2.50; P = 0.01; r = −0.36) hippocampi. BMIz was not significantly associated with hippocampal volume.ConclusionsBMIz is associated with hippocampal tissue characteristics during adolescence, which could impact later brain development.
Effect of reinforcement architecture on the macroscopic mechanical properties of fiberous polymer composites: A review
Authors: Ahmad Furkan , Yuvaraj N , Bajpai Pramendra K. 
Published: June 2020

AbstractIn order to curb the fuel consumption and corresponding CO2 emission, defence, automobile, and aerospace industries are leaning towards the use of light weight‐high stiffness engineered materials like fiber reinforced polymer composites (FRPCs). One of the major advantages of FRPCs is that various properties (stiffness, tensile strength, flexural strength, etc.) can be tailored according to requirements of the application. Architecture of the reinforcement used in FRPCs has been proved to affect these properties substantially. Composite materials have seen a lot of advancement in the field of reinforcement architectures starting from the plain‐woven fabrics to advanced 3D braided/woven preforms. The architecture of reinforcement must be wisely selected to design the required properties of developed composites and to reduce the overall cost without compromising the performance. The problem addressed in the present study is the selection of reinforcement architecture while developing a composite material. 2D Plain woven reinforcements are better than other reinforcements in terms of in‐plane properties but their out‐of‐plane properties are very poor. Therefore, advanced architectures like 3D woven fabrics, 5D Braided preforms, knitted preforms, and 3D needle punched fibers are being used in various high performance applications. The present article is an attempt to analyse the effect of various available architectures of reinforcement on the macroscopic mechanical properties of FRPC laminates and to propose a systematic way to select a reinforcement.
On the clinical psychologist's role in the time of COVID‐19, with particular reference to experience gained in pediatric oncology
Authors: Clerici Carlo Alfredo , Massimino Maura , Ferrari Andrea 
Published: June 2020

AbstractObjectiveThe COVID‐19 pandemic seems to be developing into a planetary‐scale mental health experiment, undermining the foundations of our being human, obliging us to keep physically apart from one another, and inducing us to see other people as a potential threat.MethodsIn the world of pediatric oncology, we have found ourselves up against new challenges. In this article, we discuss the difficulties found in conducting psychological support sessions while complying with physical distancing rules, as well as wearing protective face masks, and even gloves; or while using modern remote communication telecommunications.ResultsThe classic reasons behind requests for psychological support have been compounded by other, novel problems, such as: fewer relational resources for families at home, less chance to socialize, hospital stays with only one parent, the suspension of all teaching and group activities on the ward, economic difficulties caused by the pandemic, the rising levels of family conflictuality and generalized anxiety.ConclusionsIt is essential to find new solutions that can be promptly implemented, reconfiguring the way we humanize our hospital wards.

Published: June 2020

AbstractAs anodes for lithium‐ion batteries, CoCO3 has a much higher specific capacity than graphite and can meet the urgent demands of electric vehicles and portable electronics. However, reported CoCO3 anodes are of micrometer‐sized morphology (0.4–10 µm) that severely limits long‐term and rate performances (in particular >2.0 A g−1) due to intrinsically low conductivity and high volume expansion. Mesoporous materials have uniform open mesopores to offer sufficient solid/electrolyte contact, rapid Li+ transport, and large pore volume. However, it is still challenging to prepare uniform mesoporous CoCO3 nanostructures. This work reports a urea–NH4HCO3–ethylene glycol (EG) solvothermal system to fabricate uniform mesoporous CoCO3 nanospindles and concurrently composite with multilayered graphite nanosheets. The obtained mesoporous CoCO3 has a specific surface area of 143.7 m2 g−1, 12.4 times that of commercial CoCO3. The preparation mechanism is studied in‐depth, where urea, NH4HCO3, EG, and crystal water play essential and respective roles. The synergistic effect of the mesopore and graphite nanosheets facilitates long‐term cycling stability (1465 mAh g−1 after 450 cycles at 200 mA g−1 with 101.1% capacity retention) and high‐rate performance (1033 mAh g−1 at 2.0 A g−1). The essential roles of mesopores and graphite nanosheets in boosting the kinetic change are investigated.

Published: June 2020

AbstractA 43‐year‐old man presented with cough. His chest X‐ray showed a left‐sided pleural effusion. We suspected tuberculous pleurisy (TP), and thoracoscopy under local anaesthesia was performed. It showed entire pleura with scattered nodules. Nodules were biopsied by conventional biopsy forceps, but the tissue sample was small. Therefore, the nodules were biopsied with a cryoprobe. The tissue size obtained was 2 mm by conventional biopsy forceps, and 6 mm at 5 sec by cryobiopsy. Histological analysis of the conventional biopsy forceps and cryobiopsy specimen showed inflammation with lymphocytes and caseating granulomas. Tissue culture of conventional biopsy forceps was positive for Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and all sensitivity tests were positive. But, the tissue culture of the cryobiopsy sample was negative. There is a possibility that cryobiopsy is not useful for tissue culture for TP.

Published: June 2020

AbstractEs werden erstmalig geklebte ungealterte und gealterte Fügeverbindungen für Halter zur nachträglichen Montage von Anbauteilen an bereits beschichteten Stählen untersucht. Die untersuchten Fügeverbindungen auf Polyurethan‐, Polysiloxan‐ und Epoxidoberflächen weisen auch nach beschleunigter Alterung (Salzsprühnebel, zyklische Temperaturwechsel, hohe relative Luftfeuchte) eine hohe mechanische Beständigkeit auf. Die für eine Lastannahme von 50 kg vorgegebenen Zug‐ und Zugscherfestigkeiten werden in allen Fällen mit einem Faktor > 10 erreicht. Alle Versagensspannungen liegen unterhalb der Haftzugfestigkeit der Beschichtungssysteme zum Stahlsubstrat. Der Torsionswiderstand der Klebeverbindung überschreitet das geforderte Anzugsmoment des Gewindebolzens. Es wird eine zyklische Belastungsgrenze von > 9 ⋅ 106 Lastwechseln ermittelt. Der Einfluss der zyklischen Alterung auf das Kriechverhalten ist insignifikant. Die Fügeverbindungen erfüllen die Anforderungen an einen Sicherheitsfaktor für die Auslegung für maritime Anwendungen.

Authors: Labelle Marc‐André , Ispas‐Szabo Pompilia , Mateescu Mircea Alexandru 
Published: June 2020

AbstractModified starch is widely used in pharmaceutical and biomedical sciences. Various modifications such as functionalization, reorganization of the structure, or depolymerization may be used to tune ionicity, hydrophilicity, mucoadhesion, susceptibility to amylolysis by α‐amylase, or porosity. These chemical, physical, or enzymatic modifications modulate and adapt the properties of starches to different usages as tablet excipients, drug carriers, transdermal patches, injectables, wound dressing materials, transient embolizants, scaffolds, and stents. Through an understanding of the starch structure, this Review aims to aid the design of new starch materials for biomedical and pharmaceutical applications. The correlation between structure and properties is analyzed and various phenomena are discussed from this perspective, with particular eye toward the envisaged functionality of new starch‐based materials.

Erhöhtes Risiko für tiefe Beinvenenthrombosen bei Intensivpatienten mit CoViD-19-Infektion? – Erste Daten
Authors: Zerwes Sebastian , Hernandez Cancino F. , Liebetrau D. , Gosslau Y. , Warm T. , Märkl B. , Hyhlik-Dürr A. 
Published: June 2020

Zusammenfassung
Hintergrund
Die Inzidenz tiefer Beinvenenthrombosen (TVT) bei intensivpflichtigen CoViD-19-Patienten wurde bisher nur in wenigen Studien untersucht. Prospektive vergleichende Studien mit Non-CoViD-19-Intensivpatienten fehlen gänzlich.

Fragestellung
Die Inzidenz TVT bei an CoViD-19 erkrankten Intensivpatienten verglichen mit Non-CoViD-19-Patienten, die im selben Zeitraum auf den Intensivstationen des Universitätsklinikums Augsburg behandelt wurden, wurden erhoben. Zudem soll untersucht werden, welche Art der Antikoagulation zum Zeitpunkt des Auftretens der TVT bei CoViD-19-Patienten vorlag und inwiefern eine TVT bei diesem Patientengut mit einer erhöhten Letalität vergesellschaftet ist.

Material und Methoden
In der prospektiven Single-Center Studie wurden im Zeitraum vom 18.04.2020 bis 30.04.2020 20 SARS-CoV2-positive Patienten mit 20 Non-CoViD-Patienten auf Intensivstation bezüglich des Auftretens tiefer Beinvenenthrombosen verglichen. Hierzu wurden demographische Daten, Laborparameter und klinische Verläufe erfasst und ausgewertet.

Ergebnisse
Die Rate an TVT war im untersuchten Kollektiv bei Patienten mit SARS-CoV2 deutlich erhöht (CoViD-19-Patienten: 20 % vs. Non-CoViD-19-Patienten: 5 %). Sowohl das Vorliegen einer TVT sowie deutlich erhöhte D‑Dimer-Werte waren in der vorliegenden Studie mit erhöhter Letalität vergesellschaftet.

Diskussion
Wir empfehlen bei der stationären Aufnahme von Patienten mit SARS-CoV2-Verdacht oder Nachweis die Bestimmung der D‑Dimere und im Falle erhöhter Werte die großzügige Indikationsstellung zur Kompressionssonographie der tiefen Beinvenen. So können TVT früh erkannt und eine therapeutische Antikoagulation begonnen werden. Alle stationären CoViD-19-Patienten sollten eine Thromboseprophylaxe mit NMH erhalten. Weitere Studien zu Point-of-care-Methoden (TEG®, ROTEM®) zur Erkennung einer Hyperkoagulabilität bei SARS-CoV2 sind notwendig.
The medial ligaments and the ACL restrain anteromedial laxity of the knee

Published: June 2020

Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this study was to determine the contribution of each of the ACL and medial ligament structures in resisting anteromedial rotatory instability (AMRI) loads applied in vitro.

Methods
Twelve knees were tested using a robotic system. It imposed loads simulating clinical laxity tests at 0° to 90° flexion: ±90 N anterior–posterior force, ±8 Nm varus–valgus moment, and ±5 Nm internal–external rotation, and the tibial displacements were measured in the intact knee. The ACL and individual medial structures—retinaculum, superficial and deep medial collateral ligament (sMCL and dMCL), and posteromedial capsule with oblique ligament (POL + PMC)—were sectioned sequentially. The tibial displacements were reapplied after each cut and the reduced loads required allowed the contribution of each structure to be calculated.

Results
For anterior translation, the ACL was the primary restraint, resisting 63–77% of the drawer force across 0° to 90°, the sMCL contributing 4–7%. For posterior translation, the POL + PMC contributed 10% of the restraint in extension; other structures were not significant. For valgus load, the sMCL was the primary restraint (40–54%) across 0° to 90°, the dMCL 12%, and POL + PMC 16% in extension. For external rotation, the dMCL resisted 23–13% across 0° to 90°, the sMCL 13–22%, and the ACL 6–9%.

Conclusion
The dMCL is the largest medial restraint to tibial external rotation in extension. Therefore, following a combined ACL + MCL injury, AMRI may persist if there is inadequate healing of both the sMCL and dMCL, and MCL deficiency increases the risk of ACL graft failure.
