Resúmen
Introducción y Objetivo En las últimas décadas, la incidencia y prevalencia de la incontinencia urinaria han venido en aumento. Existen numerosas publicaciones sobre este tema, se han introducido nuevos dispositivos, y se han modificado las líneas de manejo de esta patología. El objetivo de este estudio es realizar un análisis bibliométrico de las publicaciones sobre incontinencia urinaria masculina en las revistas indexadas.
Métodos Se realizó un análisis bibliométrico descriptivo de corte retrospectivo de la literatura médica disponible en la base de datos Web of Science (WOS) en relación con incontinencia urinaria masculina entre 2002 y 2020. Por medio de la WOS, se obtuvieron las variables a analizar, y se elaboraron tablas y gráficas en el programa Microsoft Office Excel 2017.
Resultados Encontramos un total de 498 publicaciones en 88 revistas. Hubo un crecimiento exponencial de las publicaciones a partir de 2006. Las 3 revistas con mayor porcentaje de publicaciones fueron: J Urol, con 25,2% (125), Neurol Urodyn, con 16,5% (82), European Urology Journal, con 11,1% (55); sólo 5 de las 20 revistas con más publicaciones tuvieron un factor de impacto ≥ 3. El país que tuvo mayor porcentaje fue Estados Unidos con 21,2% (105), seguido por países europeos. En América Latina, el país con mayor número de publicaciones fue Brasil, con 2,6% (13). No se encontraron estudios colombianos con esta búsqueda específica.
Conclusión Este es el primer estudio bibliométrico sobre incontinencia urinaria masculina. Con el tiempo, han aumentado las publicaciones acerca de este tema, y la mayoría está concentrada en revistas de Estados Unidos y Europa. No es predominante la publicación en revistas de alto factor de impacto, y es muy baja la cantidad de publicaciones que aporta Colombia y los demás países latinoamericanos.

Resumen
Objetivo Describir las percepciones de calidad de vida en una muestra de pacientes con cáncer de próstata avanzado de un hospital universitario.
Métodos Desde un enfoque cualitativo descriptivo, se realizaron entrevistas semiestructuradas y líneas de tiempo para explorar la percepción de calidad de vida de siete pacientes con cáncer de próstata desde su diagnóstico. Por medio de un análisis temático de corte inductivo-deductivo, se identificaron las dimensiones de la calidad de vida que se perciben con mayores cambios a partir de la enfermedad y su tratamiento.
Resultados Entre las dimensiones que se encuentran más frecuentemente afectadas están las funciones urinaria, sexual y hormonal. Así mismo, los participantes describen afectaciones relacionadas con los síntomas generales del cáncer y su tratamiento, el estado de ánimo y las limitaciones en la atención por el sistema de salud. Por otra parte, los participantes reportan que su calidad de vida se ve fortalecida gracias a nuevos hábitos y prácticas personales, así como la consolidación del apoyo social, en el que incluyen a la pareja, la familia y la relación con su médico tratante.
Conclusiones El fortalecimiento de la relación médico-paciente basada en el trato cordial, disposición afectiva y empatía al momento de la valoración médica, y la consolidación de una adecuada red de apoyo social como mecanismo de afrontamiento ante el proceso de enfermedad se establecen como las principales estrategias para incrementar la percepción de calidad de vida relacionada con la salud de los pacientes con cáncer de próstata avanzado.

Published: December 2021

AbstractMusculoskeletal injections serve a variety of diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, with ultrasonography (US) guidance having many advantages: no ionizing radiation, real-time guidance, high spatial resolution, excellent soft tissue contrast, and the ability to identify and avoid critical structures. Sonography can be cost effective and afford flexibility in resource-constrained settings. This article describes US-guided musculoskeletal injections relevant to many radiology practices and provides experience-based suggestions. Structures covered include multiple joints (shoulder, hip), bursae (iliopsoas, subacromial-subdeltoid, greater trochanteric), peripheral nerves (sciatic, radial), and tendon sheaths (posterior tibial, peroneal, flexor hallucis longus, Achilles, long head of the biceps). Trigger point and similar targeted steroid injections, as well as calcific tendinopathy barbotage, are also described.

Published: December 2021

Resumen
Objetivo La biopsia de próstata es una ayuda esencial en el diagnóstico de cáncer, siendo el método más utilizado la biopsia transrectal guiada por ultrasonido (TRUS), con una tasa diagnóstica entre el 37% y el 45%, aunque no exenta de complicaciones como infecciones, dolor o sangrado.El enfoque alternativo y seguro a las biopsias TRUS se encuentra en la biopsia transperineal (BTP), realizada comúnmente bajo anestesia regional o general.El objetivo de este estudio fue determinar la efectividad de la BTP bajo anestesia local y guía ultrasonográfica transrectal, con el impacto sobre la sensibilidad del estudio y la tasa de readmisión hospitalaria por infección.
Métodos Estudio de cohorte retrospectiva en el que se evaluaron 83 pacientes sometidos a BTP con anestesia local y guía ultrasonográfica transrectal de enero de 2017 a agosto de 2018 en una ciudad intermedia de Colombia. La muestea incluyó todos los hombres mayores de 18 años con datos de historia clínica disponibles para su análisis, así como los reportes histopatológicos de las biopsias. Se excluyeron casos de rebiopsia o con datos insuficientes.El análisis de datos nominales se realizó mediante la prueba de chi cuadrado, y el de los datos numéricos, con las prubas t de Student o de Mann-Whitney.
Resultados Un total de 83 pacientes, con media de edad de 65 ± 7.9 años fueron sometidos al análisis del estudio histopatológico. Se excluyeron nueve pacientes que no tenían información disponible en el registro clínico sistematizado, ni en historia clínica de formato físico. Se encontró una proporción de positividad y diagnóstico de cáncer de prostata en el 39.7% (33) de los pacientes, distribuidos así: grado de grupo 1 (69.7%; 23); grado de grupo 2 )15.2%; 5); grados de grupos 3 y 4 (3% cada uno de ellos; 2); y grado de grupo 5 (9%; 3). En total, 60% (50) fueron negativos para malignidad y, de estos el 54% (27) tuvo hiperplasia. El antibiótico profiláctico indicado en el 96.7% (80) de los casos fue una cefalosporina de primera generación, administrada en el 15% (12) por vía parenteral preoperatoria. En esta serie de casos, no se documentaron ingresos hospitalarios asociados a infección después del procedimiento.
Conclusiones La biopsia de próstata por vía transperineal es una técnica con rendimiento diagnostico similar al del abordaje transrectal: es segura, rápida, de fácil acceso, con bajo costo y, sobre todo, con un riesgo insignificante de infección y sepsis. Sus beneficios son altamente representativos en un sistema de salud como el de nuestro país, y la BTP facilita el acceso de la población vulnerable del área rural y de ciudades intermedias, en las que no se dispone de un urólogo experto.
Electrokinetic energy conversion through cylindrical microannulus with periodic heterogeneous wall potentials
Authors: Chu Xin , Jian Yongjun 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
In microfluidic electrokinetic flows, heterogeneous wall potentials are often required to fulfill some functions, such as increasing dispersion and mixing efficiency. In this paper, we study the pressure-driven electrokinetic flow through microannulus with heterogeneous wall potentials in circumferential direction. The streaming potential induced by the ions accumulating in downstream of the microannulus is considered and the electrokinetic energy conversion (EKEC) efficiency is further investigated. Interestingly, based on the method of Fourier expansion, the analytical solutions of fluid velocity, streaming potential and energy conversion efficiency are derived for arbitrary peripheral distribution of the small wall potential for the first time. Four specific patterned modes of the heterogeneous wall potential, i.e. constant, step, sinusoid with period 2π and sinusoid with period π/2 are represented. The distributions of the electric potential and the velocity for four different modes are depicted graphically. Furthermore, the variations of the streaming potential and the EKEC conversion efficiency with related parameters are also discussed. Results show that when these integral values from −π to π associated with the wall potentials are identical, the streaming potential and the EKEC efficiency corresponding to different modes are the same. Additionally, the amplitude of fluid velocity peripherally reduces with the increase of the wavenumber of wall potential distribution in θ-direction.

Published: December 2021

AbstractA highly sensitive and selective modified electrode was successfully developed for the monitoring of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) in the presence of folic acid. In this regard, a carbon paste electrode (CPE) was functionalized by the nitrogen-doped carbon quantum dots/tin oxide (N-CQDs/SnO2) nanocomposite and 1-butyl-2,3-dimethyl imidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([C4DMIM][PF6]) ionic liquid (IL). The structure and surface morphology of the nanocomposite were characterized by various methods, including field emission scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM), and x-ray diffraction (XRD). The modified electrode displayed powerful and long-lasting electron mediating activity, with well-separated NADH and folic acid oxidation peaks. The sensing response of the developed [C4DMIM][PF6]/N-CQDs/SnO2/CPE platform was evaluated by determining NADH via the voltammetric technique under the optimized operating conditions. The current peaks of the square wave voltammograms of NADH and folic acid increased linearly with enhancing its concentrations within the ranges of 0.003–275μM NADH and 0.4–380μM folic acid. The detection limits for NADH and folic acid were obtained at 0.8 nM and 0.1μM, respectively. Interference species such as glucose, urea, tryptophan, glycine, methionine, and vitamin B12had no influence on the ability of the fabricated modified electrode to detect the target species. The low detection limit, high sensitivity, excellent selectivity, superior stability, and cost-effectiveness made it suitable for the quantification of NADH in the real biological samples with the recovery percent values in the range of 97.5%–103%.

Published: December 2021

Abstract
One of the features unique in Bi-2212/Ag wires is the network of bridges between the filaments formed by grains grown through the Ag matrix during the partial-melt heat treatment process. Although these interconnections favor a redistribution of the current among the filaments allowing high critical current density, they represent a strong electrical coupling between the filaments themselves. Such a coupling increases the AC losses, present also in the case of the charge and discharge of DC magnets, and principal applications of this kind of superconductor. In this work, through transport and magnetic measurements and their comparison, we study the behavior of these bridges as a function of applied magnetic field and temperature and the implications they have on the electrical coupling. The experiment has been performed on two multifilamentary wires prepared by Groove-Die-Groove Powder In Tube process starting from two commercial Bi-2212 precursor powders: Nexans and Engi-Mat. The reported results show that the effective length scale on which the filaments are coupled is dependent on the field and temperature, passing from the filaments-bundle diameter at low field and temperature to single filament diameter at high field and temperature. Although the two samples have different Jc values, such filaments coupling behavior is common to both. We believe that these findings are very useful in magnet design.
Temperature-field-angle dependent critical current estimation of commercial second generation high temperature superconducting conductor using double hidden layer Bayesian regularized neural network
Authors: Liu Quanyue , Kim Seokho 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
We estimated the critical current of the second generation (2G) high-temperature superconducting (HTS) conductor using neural network fitting methods. The critical current of 2G HTS conductors depends on magnetic field strength and angle as well as on temperature, Ic(T, B, θ). Moreover, the critical current values vary for 2G HTS conductors from different manufacturers. In this study, we addressed three challenging issues in critical current assessment by neural network fitting methods, namely 90° asymmetry, a wide range of temperature-field-angle dependence, and different manufacturer conductor differences. Prediction models for three commercial HTS conductors were trained and evaluated by convergence, accuracy, and robustness. The linear regression correlation coefficient R was approximately equal to 1 for the three models. The critical current estimation obtained from the proposed method was compared with the critical current estimation from the interpolation method at different fixed temperatures using a multi-width no-insulation magnet. The model computation speed was also discussed. The proposed model needed only 2.7 s to compute 10 million data sets. Therefore, the convergence, accuracy, reliability, and speed of the proposed method prove that it can be used in a wide range of industrial applications and academic fields.

Published: December 2021

Abstract
Microwave photonics is a remarkably powerful system for quantum simulation and technologies, but its integration in superconducting circuits, superior in many aspects, is constrained by the long wavelengths and impedance mismatches in this platform. We introduce a solution to these difficulties via compact networks of high-kinetic inductance microstrip waveguides and coupling wires with strongly reduced phase velocities. We demonstrate broadband capabilities for superconducting microwave photonics in terms of routing, emulation and generalized linear and nonlinear networks.

Abstract
Vortex beam (VB) possessing spatially helical phase–front has attracted widespread attention in free-space optical communication, etc. However, the spiral phase of VB is susceptible to atmospheric turbulence, and effective retrieval of the distorted conjugate phase is crucial for its practical applications. Herein, a convolutional neural network (CNN) approach to retrieve the phase distribution of VB is experimentally demonstrated. We adopt a spherical wave to interfere with VB for converting its phase information into intensity changes, and construct a CNN model with excellent image processing capabilities to directly extract phase–front features from the interferogram. Since the interference intensity is correlated with the phase–front, the CNN model can effectively reconstruct the wavefront of conjugate VB carrying different initial phases from a single interferogram. The results show that the CNN-based phase retrieval method has a loss of 0.1418 in the simulation and a loss of 0.2344 for the experimental data, and remains robust even in turbulence environments. This approach can improve the information acquisition capability for recovering the distorted wavefront and reducing the reliance on traditional inverse retrieval algorithms, which may provide a promising tool to retrieve the spatial phase distributions of VBs.

Published: December 2021

Abstract
For the casted CrCoNi medium entropy alloy melted by magnetic levitation, the deformation was carried out in 4 passes under the condition of liquid nitrogen temperature (−196 °C), the total reduction was 50%, The microstructure and properties were analyzed after liquid nitrogen low temperature rolled. The experimental data showed that the phase structure of the alloy was not changed under the low-temperature rolling. The grains, crushed and refined, were elongated along the rolling direction. With the increasing of passes and reduction, the tensile strength increased from 585 MPa to 1359 MPa, while the elongation decreased from 37.8% to 5.9%. work With the increasing of work hardening, the tensile strength of the CrCoNi medium entropy alloy gradually increased, while the plasticity dramatic decreased. At the same time, the corrosion resistance of the CrCoNi medium entropy alloy was improved by low temperature cold rolled. The corrosion resistance of as-cast and rolled CrCoNi was much better than 304 stainless steel.

Published: December 2021

Abstract
This paper presents freestanding thermoelectric touch detectors consisting of graphite conductive flakes into a polydimethylsiloxane matrix. An optimal concentration of graphite flakes (45 wt%) lead to robust and homogeneous detectors that exhibited signal-noise ratio values up to 170 with rise and falling times below 1 s and 7 s, respectively. The detectors performance was stable over continuous operation and did not reveal significant degradation while bended under different curvature radii (45, 25 and 15 mm) and consecutive bending cycles. Moreover, the twist of the thermal gradient direction between the electrodes of the detector enables a Yes or No response which opens new usage possibilities. Therefore, this work provides an efficient way to develop robust, low-cost, and scalable thermal detectors with potential use in wearable technologies.

Published: December 2021

Abstract
Metformin is hypothesized to protect against the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE); however, there is a paucity of data supporting this hypothesis. Among individuals aged 40–90 years with a diagnosis of type 2 diabetes in the Health Improvement Network database (2000–2019), we compared the risks of incident VTE, pulmonary embolism, and deep vein thrombosis among metformin initiators with those among sulfonylurea initiators. Individuals were followed from their first prescription refill to an incident VTE, drug discontinuation, switching or augmenting, plan disenrollment, or the end of the study, whichever occurred first. Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated using the Cox model, adjusting for confounders using inverse probability of treatment weighting. Among 117,472 initiators of metformin and 13,835 initiators of sulfonylureas, 555 (1.3/1,000 person-years) and 75 (2.1/1,000 person-years) VTE cases occurred in each group, respectively. The multivariable-adjusted HR was 0.65 (95% CI: 0.51, 0.84). The corresponding risks for pulmonary embolism (adjusted HR = 0.71, 95% CI: 0.50, 1.01) and deep vein thrombosis (adjusted HR = 0.64, 95% CI: 0.48, 0.87) were also lower in metformin initiators than in sulfonylurea initiators. Our study provided empirical evidence to support a lower risk of VTE after initiation of metformin as compared with sulfonylureas among patients with type 2 diabetes.

Published: December 2021

Abstract

Summary
Patient multi-omics datasets are often characterized by a high dimensionality; however, usually only a small fraction of the features is informative, that is change in their value is directly related to the disease outcome or patient survival. In medical sciences, in addition to a robust feature selection procedure, the ability to discover human-readable patterns in the analyzed data is also desirable. To address this need, we created MAINE—Multi-omics Analysis and Exploration. The unique functionality of MAINE is the ability to discover multidimensional dependencies between the selected multi-omics features and event outcome prediction as well as patient survival probability. Learned patterns are visualized in the form of interpretable decision/survival trees and rules.
