Hyperhidrosis: a hot topic?
Authors: Lockett Karen 
Published: June 2021

Everyone sweats, but, for many, sweating or, moreover, excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) can become a disorder and drastically impact upon day-to-day life. The psychological and social effects of hyperhidrosis should not be underestimated, although many individuals live with this condition without realising that there are successful treatments available to them, besides what is available over the counter from a pharmacy. However, these treatments are not often requested from medical aesthetic practitioners in day-to-day clinical practice, so they may not be a ‘hot’ topic of discussion within many clinics. However, as professional bodies practising within our chosen specialities, medical aesthetic practitioners need to advance their knowledge and skills to keep abreast of new best practice and evidence in all spheres, no matter how rarely many may encounter them in their own practice. This enables medical aesthetic practitioners to educate and, ultimately, treat their patients safely and successfully. This article explains how and why hyperhidrosis may arise and progress, as well as the clinical treatment pathways that are available to patients.

Objectives
The heterogeneity and comorbidity of major mental disorders presenting in adolescents and young adults has fostered calls for trans-diagnostic research. This study examines early expressions of psychopathology and risk and trans-diagnostic caseness in a community cohort of twins and non-twin siblings.

Methods
Using data from the Brisbane Longitudinal Twin Study, we estimated median number of self-rated psychiatric symptoms, prevalence of subthreshold syndromes, family history of mood and/or psychotic disorders, and likelihood of subsequent trans-diagnostic caseness (individuals meeting diagnostic criteria for mood and/or psychotic syndromes). Next, we used cross-validated Chi-Square Automatic Interaction Detector (CHAID) analyses to identify the nature and relative importance of individual self-rated symptoms that predicted trans-diagnostic caseness. We examined the positive and negative predictive values (PPV; NPV) and accuracy of all classifications (Area under the Curve and 95% confidence intervals: AUC; 95% CI).

Results
Of 1815 participants (Female 1050, 58%; mean age 26.40), more than one in four met caseness criteria for a mood and/or psychotic disorder. Examination of individual factors indicated that the AUC was highest for subthreshold syndromes, followed by family history then self-rated psychiatric symptoms, and that NPV always exceeded PPV for caseness. In contrast, the CHAID analysis (adjusted for age, sex, twin status) generated a classification tree comprising six trans-diagnostic symptoms. Whilst the contribution of two symptoms (need for sleep; physical activity) to the model was more difficult to interpret, CHAID analysis indicated that four self-rated symptoms (sadness; feeling overwhelmed; impaired concentration; paranoia) offered the best discrimination between cases and non-cases. These four symptoms showed different associations with family history status.

Conclusions
The findings need replication in independent cohorts. However, the use of CHAID might provide a means of identifying specific subsets of trans-diagnostic symptoms representing clinical phenotypes that predict transition to caseness in individuals at risk of onset of major mental disorders.
Reporting of statistical sample size calculations in publications of trials on age-related macular degeneration, glaucoma and cataract
Authors: Tulka Sabrina , Knippschild Stephanie , Funck Sina , Goetjes Isabelle , Uluk Yasmin , Baulig Christine 
Published: June 2021

Background
Transparent and complete publications of randomised controlled trials (RCT) ought to comply with the guidelines of the CONSORT Statement, which stipulates sample size calculation as an important aspect of trial planning. The objective of this study was to analyse and compare the reporting of statistical sample size calculations in RCT papers on the treatment of age-related macular degeneration (AMD), glaucoma and cataract published in 2018.

Material and methods
This study comprises a total of 113 RCT papers (RCT-P) published in 2018 (AMD: 14, glaucoma: 28, cataract: 71), in English or German, and identified through an internet-based literature search in PubMed and EMBASE. The primary outcome measure of the study was the number of trials providing a complete description of the underlying sample case calculation on the basis of the variables required (significance level, expected outcomes, power, and resulting sample size).

Results
Of the RCTs reviewed, 64% (AMD), 61% (glaucoma) and 31% (cataract) provided a justification of the number of patients included. A complete description of the described studies’ sample size calculation including all the necessary values (primary outcome measure of this study) was described by 21% of the AMD, 29% of the cataract and 18% of the glaucoma RCT publications (in total: 24 of 113 (21%) at a confidence interval of 95%: [13%; 29%]).

Conclusion
All three treatment areas analysed lacked reporting quality regarding the justification of the number of patients included in a clinical trial based on a sample size calculation required for ethical reasons. More than half of all RCT publications reviewed did not provide all of the required information on statistical sample size calculation, and thus lacked transparency and completeness. It is therefore urgently required to involve methodologists in a study’s planning and publishing processes to ensure that methodology descriptions are transparent and of high quality.

Dual System Least-Squares Finite Element Method for a Hyperbolic Problem
Authors: Lee Eunjung , Na Hyesun 
Published: June 2021

Abstract
This study investigates the dual system least-squares finite element method, namely the LL∗ method, for a hyperbolic problem.
It mainly considers nonlinear hyperbolic conservation laws and proposes a combination of the LL∗ method and Newton’s iterative method.
In addition, the inclusion of a stabilizing term in the discrete LL∗ minimization problem is proposed, which has not been investigated previously.
The proposed approach is validated using the one-dimensional Burgers equation, and the numerical results show that this approach is effective in capturing shocks and provides approximations with reduced oscillations in the presence of shocks.
Natural cork and its agglomerates as substitutes for high-density expanded polystyrene foams in sandwich cores
Authors: Miralbes Ramon , Ranz David , Gómez José A. , Zouzias Dimitris 
Published: June 2021

Abstract
Natural cork (NC) and its agglomerates are renewable materials that could be effective substitutes for non-renewable foams, such as expanded polystyrene (EPS), in the cores of sandwich materials. Although many existing studies have analysed the behaviour of different cork agglomerates under tensile, compression, or shear loads, no studies to date have simultaneously analysed the behaviour of multiple cork materials under all these loads. Therefore, in this study, the behaviour of NC and five cork agglomerates were analysed under tensile, compression and shear loads, and the mechanical and specific properties and the shape of the stress–strain curves were compared with those obtained for five EPS counterparts to analyse the relationship between the mechanical behaviour of the core and the main failure modes of the sandwich. Although EPS exhibited higher specific properties, NC exhibited higher mechanical properties under all the loads. The agglomerates all exhibited lower mechanical properties except for shear strain. Additionally, because no specific standards were available for testing cork products, slightly modified standards for testing other materials were adopted.
Solution of non-linear time fractional telegraph equation with source term using B-spline and Caputo derivative
Authors: Majeed Abdul , Kamran Mohsin , Asghar Noreen 
Published: June 2021

Abstract
This article focusses on the implementation of cubic B-spline approach to investigate numerical solutions of inhomogeneous time fractional nonlinear telegraph equation using Caputo derivative. L1 formula is used to discretize the Caputo derivative, while B-spline basis functions are used to interpolate the spatial derivative. For nonlinear part, the existing linearization formula is applied after generalizing it for all positive integers. The algorithm for the simulation is also presented. The efficiency of the proposed scheme is examined on three test problems with different initial boundary conditions. The influence of parameter α on the solution profile for different values is demonstrated graphically and numerically. Moreover, the convergence of the proposed scheme is analyzed and the scheme is proved to be unconditionally stable by von Neumann Fourier formula. To quantify the accuracy of the proposed scheme, error norms are computed and was found to be effective and efficient for nonlinear fractional partial differential equations (FPDEs).

Abstract
Some species of cover crops produce phenolic compounds with allelopathic potential. The use of math, statistical and computational tools to analyze data obtained with spectrophotometry can assist in the chemical profile discrimination to choose which species and cultivation are the best for weed management purposes. The aim of this study was to perform exploratory and discriminant analysis using R package specmine on the phenolic profile of Secale cereale L., Avena strigosa L. and Raphanus sativus L. shoots obtained by UV–vis scanning spectrophotometry. Plants were collected at 60, 80 and 100 days after sowing and at 15 and 30 days after rolling in experiment in Brazil. Exploratory and discriminant analysis, namely principal component analysis, hierarchical clustering analysis, t-test, fold-change, analysis of variance and supervised machine learning analysis were performed. Results showed a stronger tendency to cluster phenolic profiles according to plant species rather than crop management system, period of sampling or plant phenologic stage. PCA analysis showed a strong distinction of S. cereale L. and A. strigosa L. 30 days after rolling. Due to the fast analysis and friendly use, the R package specmine can be recommended as a supporting tool to exploratory and discriminatory analysis of multivariate data.

Authors: Herrera Kimberly M. , Ou Jennie P. , Persad Malini D. , Bernasko James , Garretto Diana , Garry David 
Published: June 2021

Abstract

Objectives
To estimate the metformin failure rate in women with gestational diabetes.

Methods
The study was designed as a retrospective cohort of women diagnosed with gestational diabetes by the 75 g 2 h oral glucose tolerance test. Women were placed into two groups: metformin success (107 patients not requiring insulin therapy) or metformin failure (15 patients requiring the addition of, or, transition to insulin). Primary outcome: rate of metformin failure. Secondary outcomes: maternal and neonatal factors.

Results
The failure rate of metformin was 15% (19/122 women) in the study. The failure group was more likely to have 3 abnormal values on a 2-h 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (37% (n=7/19) vs. 15% (n=15/103), p=0.02). Patients who failed had higher average fasting blood glucose levels on the glucose tolerance test as well as on pretreatment fasting finger stick values. Those who failed metformin were diagnosed with gestational diabetes and started on metformin earlier in gestation.

Conclusions
Overall low rate of metformin failure in treatment of gestational diabetes.
Testing New Water Repellent Solutions to Protect Deteriorated Granite
Authors: Costa D. , Delgado Rodrigues J. 
Published: June 2021

Abstract
The evaluation of nano-particle based products to protect granite surfaces from water absorption is presented. Wettability, water absorption, drying behaviour and water vapour transfer were considered as the most relevant parameters for this evaluation. The effect of the application methods on the final performance was also tested. The results allow to consider that nanostructured products may present some advantages when compared with conventional water repellent products, namely on some common relevant harmful effects, such as colour changes, water vapour or liquid transfer during drying, but their effectiveness as barriers against water absorption upon longer contact time may not be equally satisfactory.

Published: June 2021

Abstract
The study reports the results of a new treatment based on water and ethylene glycol nano-TiO2 dispersions showing photocatalytic properties that was tested on both Noto stone (calcarenite) and Carrara marble. To verify that the proposed treatments did not affect the intrinsic properties of the stone materials, colour measurement, static contact angle and water absorption by capillarity tests were carried out before and after the treatments. The efficacy of the photocatalytic activity of TiO2 nanoparticles applied to the stone substrates was evaluated by decomposition tests of organic colorants (Rhodamine B), both after indoor natural light exposition and after ageing in a Xenon lamp solar box. The specimens were also exposed to outdoors environment in order to verify their properties as self-cleaning agents to prevent soiling. The results showed that nano-TiO2 dispersions were effective and suitable for the use in the field of architectural heritage.
Effect of ozonation on resistance of ovine and human erythrocytes to hypothermic storage

Published: June 2021

Long-term hypothermic storage of animal blood can lead to the loss of its quality and can cause complications in recipient animals after transfusion, so the search for new methods of increasing the preservation of erythrocytes after hypothermic storage continues. The article presents the data of the ozonation effect on the preservation rate of ovine and human erythrocytes during hypothermic storage with Alsever’s solution and mannitol medium. Hemolysis, osmotic fragility and distribution density of ovine and human erythrocytes by the sphericity index were determined at different stages of hypothermic storage. The ovine erythrocytes in the control had a lower osmotic resistance compared to human erythrocytes; however, their osmotic fragility did not change significantly after hypothermic storage for 8 weeks, and for human erythrocytes, it significantly increased. Storage of ovine and human erythrocytes longer than 8 weeks led to a sharp hemolysis, while the level of hemolysis of ovine erythrocytes was lower than that of human erythrocytes. Preservation of ozonated erythrocytes is higher than non-ozonated ones during prolonged hypothermic storage. The effect of ozonation on the preservation rate of red blood cells depended on the composition of the preservation media. Hypothermal storage of human erythrocytes in Alsever’s solution for up to 8 weeks led to a shift in the density of distribution according to the sphericity index towards spheroidization of cells; in a medium with mannitol, the number of flattened cell forms increased. After 8 weeks of hypothermic storage of ovine erythrocytes, most of the cells had high sphericity indices. Pretreatment of human and sheep erythrocytes with ozone allows the distribution of cells to be kept closer to the control during long-term storage, which is especially pronounced in mannitol medium. Ovine erythrocytes retained the ability to form rosettes with human T-lymphocytes after hypothermic storage for up to 12 weeks. Thus, ozone pretreatment and the use of mannitol as part of hypothermic storage medium could be an approach to improve the quality of preserved ovine erythrocytes.
Народна школа грамоти в таборі полонених українців Вецляр, Німеччина (вересень 1915 – березень 1917 рр.): короткий нарис історії створення та діяльності.

The article analyzes the specifics of the functioning of the public school in the Wetzlar Camp of Ukrainian prisoners of war who served in the tsarist army. The authors also identify the impact of education on the prisoners. Although the school was an effective tool of the Ukrainization processes, its influence was limited by strong anti-Ukrainian obstruction by the Black Hundred groups’ members and the Little Russians during September 1915 – October 1916. They were kept in the camp for many months. Nevertheless, the teaching staff of the school did not stop their work, contributing into the formation of national consciousness of their Ukrainian students. In the autumn of 1916, the efforts of the local Ukrainian clubs and institutions (including the public school) brought about a cumulative effect – most campers had adhered pro-Ukrainian views and begun actively participate in the activity of camp cultural and educational centres. This way the public school became a kind of «centre of gravity» throughout the camp and the number of its students grew steadily. It happened because the prisoners realized the ultimate need for their own education. They wanted to get rid of their illiteracy and acquired additional primary knowledge from various subjects offered to them by the school. The teachers staff were the civilian members of the Educational Department of the “Union for the Liberation of Ukraine”. Thanks to them, the prisoners had the opportunity to learn Ukrainian literature, as well as get some knowledge in history and geography of Ukraine, arithmetic and science. Thus, because of the public school, the prisoners not only acquired literacy, got writing and grounding in mathematics, but they also broaden their minds. The irreversible changes in their national character happened due to the education and consistent patriotic position of the teachers. After visiting school, most of students were already inextricably linked to Ukraine, ready to share their knowledge to affirm national ideals among the Ukrainians.
Key words: Ukrainians – prisoners of war, public school, alphabet, teacher, student, Wetzlar camp, Germany.
Burial history and the evolution of hydrocarbon generation in Carboniferous-Permian coal measures within the Jiyang super-depression, China
Authors: Sijie Han , Shuxun Sang , Peiming Zhou , Jinlong Jia , Jingjing Liang 
Published: June 2021

In the Jiyang Sub-basin, Carboniferous-Permian (C-P) coal-measure source rocks have experienced complex multi-stage tectonics and therefore have a complex history of hydrocarbon generation. Because these coal measures underwent multi-stage burial and exhumation, they are characterized by various burial depths. In this study, we used the basin modeling technique to analyze the relationship between burial history and hydrocarbon generation evolution. The burial, thermal and maturity histories of C-P coals were reconstructed, including primary hydrocarbon generation, stagnation, re-initiation, and peak secondary hydrocarbon generation. The secondary hydrocarbon generation stage within this reconstruction was characterized by discontinuous generation and geographical differences in maturity due to the coupled effects of depth and a delay of hydrocarbon generation. According to the maturity history and the delay effect on secondary hydrocarbon generation, we concluded that the threshold depth of secondary hydrocarbon generation in the Jiyang Sub-basin occurred at 2,100 m during the Yanshan epoch (from 205 Ma to 65 Ma) and at 3,200 m during the Himalayan period (from 65 Ma to present). Based on depth, residual thickness, maturity, and hydrocarbon-generating intensity, five favorable areas of secondary hydrocarbon generation in the Jiyang Sub-basin were identified, including the Chexi areas, Gubei-Luojia areas, Yangxin areas, the southern slope of the Huimin depression and southwest of the Dongying depression. The maximum VRo/burial depth (%/km) occurred in the Indosinian epoch as the maximum VRo/time (%/100Ma) happened in the Himalayan period, indicating that the coupling controls of temperature and subsidence rate on maturation evolution play a significant role in the hydrocarbon generation evolution. A higher temperature and subsidence rate can both enhance the hydrocarbon generation evolution.
