Review of school vision screening guidelines
Authors: Metsing Ingrid T. , Hansraj Rekha , Jacobs Wanda , Nel Elsabe W. 
Published: September 2018

Background: Vision screenings are important in identifying visual anomalies likely to disrupt the physical, intellectual, social and emotional development of children. School health services globally include vision screenings, complementing a variety of associated screening services.Aim: This review article provides evidence for content, provision and efficacy of the vision screening services for children of school-going age and reports on the current practice of children’s vision screenings worldwide including in South Africa.Methods: Studies were identified from PubMed, Ebscohost and Science Direct with the search terms utilised during the selection of electronic articles and journals for the review. The target population includes children of school-going age from 6 to 19 years without previously known conditions associated with visual anomalies and learning-related problems. The quality of vision screening programmes and policies for the school-going age children in different countries were evaluated using Wilson and Jungner criteria.1Results: Vision screening programmes worldwide appear to support comprehensive vision screening methods among pre-schoolers (from birth to ≤ 6 years vs. children of school-going age). The development of vision screening procedures in some countries in the United States of America (USA) was found to be grounded on epidemiologic findings and principles. These may have contributed towards the formulation of national vision screening guidelines for pre-schoolers that supported the detection of amblyopia and its associated conditions such as strabismus, anisometropia and myopia. School-going children’s vision screenings are not supported worldwide as research has shown that there is lack of benefits for detecting other visual anomalies such as vergence and accommodative dysfunctions. This is despite evidence provided by the literature reviewed that an association exists between prevalent accommodation and vergence dysfunctions including poor ocular motilities and poor near-vision, among children of school-going age with poor academic performance.Conclusion: The guidelines worldwide support school vision screenings, especially for the pre-schoolers by the school health nurses, with other programs having considered the teachers, optometrists or orthoptists as the appropriate personnel to conduct the school vision screenings. There is still a need for the effectiveness of the school vision-screening programmes to be investigated related to the importance of detecting convergence and accommodative dysfunctions for the school going age children.

Authors: Bala Renu , Iyer V. Ramnath , Dash Prabhat Kumar , Sola Srikanth 
Published: September 2018

Background:
Longitudinal strain analysis has been shown to be useful in patients with acute coronary syndromes and in stress echocardiography. The objective of this study is to identify the incremental diagnostic value of longitudinal strain analysis at rest, when added to routine treadmill testing (TMT), in identifying the presence of coronary artery disease in patients presenting with chronic stable angina (CSA).

Methodology:
We conducted a prospective study in which adult patients presenting with CSA and normal systolic function were enrolled. All patients were examined by 2-D echocardiography, longitudinal strain analysis, TMT, and either conventional coronary angiography and/ or coronary computed tomography angiography.

Results:
We enrolled a total of 150 subjects (54±7.8 years, 63% male). The sensitivity and specificity of TMT was 60.2% and 65.5% respectively. In comparison, global longitudinal strain (GLS) alone had better sensitivity (72.7%) and specificity (74.2%). Post-systolic shortening (PSS) had similar sensitivity for early detection of significant CAD. The combination of TMT and GLS provided the best overall diagnostic accuracy with a sensitivity of 85.4% and specificity of 87.5%, respectively. The optimal cut off for GLS for identification of coronary artery disease was −17.75%.

Conclusions:
In patients presenting with chronic stable angina and normal systolic function, global longitudinal strain and post systolic shortening assessed at rest have excellent diagnostic accuracy for coronary artery disease. Longitudinal strain analysis is superior to conventional TMT and adds to its diagnostic performance.

Introduction:
Socioeconomic factors such as poverty may mediate racial disparities in health outcomes after total hip arthroplasty (THA) and confound analyses of differences between blacks and whites.

Methods:
Using a large institutional THA registry, we built models incorporating individual and census tract data and analyzed interactions between race and percent of population with Medicaid coverage and its association with 2-year patient-reported outcomes.

Results:
Black patients undergoing THA had worse baseline and 2-year pain and function scores compared with whites. We observed strong positive correlations between census tract Medicaid coverage and percent living below poverty (rho = 0.69; P < 0.001). Disparities in 2-year Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) pain and function were magnified in communities with high census tract Medicaid coverage. For blacks in these communities, 2-year WOMAC function scores were predicted to be −5.54 points lower (80.42 versus 85.96) compared with blacks in less deprived communities, a difference not observed among whites.

Conclusion:
WOMAC pain and function 2 years after THA are similar among blacks and whites in communities with little deprivation (low percent census tract Medicaid coverage). WOMAC function at 2 years is worse among blacks in areas of higher deprivation but is not seen among whites.

The Influence of Modern Technical Systems in Vehicles on Road Safety
Authors: Glamočić Ljubo 
Published: September 2018

A vehicle is a very complex technical system with several aspects. The basic purpose of each motor vehicle, is its primary goal to ensure the safety of the vehicle and, therefore, the safety of all traffic users. In order to achieve the basic goal, in the latest motor vehicle engineer development, during the development itself to the ultimate serial production, considerable attention is paid to the development and improvement of technical systems that help and improve vehicle management, and improve the control of the dynamic movement of vehicles. The ABS system (Anti-lock Braking System) is a precursor to the development of these systems, based on which a whole spectrum of active management systems has been developed. There is an overview of positive impacts of some system on the vehicle safety. Influence of the system of the active safety of traffic is presented through the correlative interaction between the number of traffic accidents with light bodily injuries, number of the light injured persons and number of vehicles possessing ABS and/or ESP system and number of traffic accidents and their consequences in the Republic of Srpska. The results showed that there is a strong correlation between the number of traffic accidents with light bodily injuries, number of light bodily injuries and number of vehicles possessing ABS and/or ESP system. Furthermore, the results showed that the increase of number of the registered vehicles increases the percentage of vehicles possessing the mentioned systems. Safety of vehicles is a very important factor of the traffic safety. Decrease of the average age of the fleet contributes to the great extent to the decrease of a number of the traffic accidents and their consequences.

Published: September 2018

AbstractAutonomous self‐propelled micromachines, taking energy from surrounding environment and converting it to their motion, are on the forefront of the research for smart materials in the recent years. Owing to their self‐propulsion mechanism, they have demonstrated to be more efficient drug carriers than passive particles. Here, multifunctional superparamagnetic/catalytic microrobots (PM/Pt microrobots) for cell manipulation, anticancer drug loading, and delivery to breast cancer cells are presented. These PM/Pt microrobots are fabricated from superparamagnetic polymer particles with iron oxide in their interior and an external tosylated surface, which is half‐covered by a catalytic platinum (Pt) layer. This result in a triple‐functionality—tosyl group‐rich polymer layer can bind molecules and biological materials, Pt layer can catalyze decomposition of hydrogen peroxide, providing propulsion to the microrobots and magnetic part allows for manipulation by magnetic field. PM/Pt microrobots are able to move as individual robots and to “team‐up” under influence of weak magnetic field by forming chains of the micromachines to perform collective actions, such as capture and transportation of cancer cells. The efficacy of PM/Pt microrobots to perform several tasks without complex surface functionalization steps simplifies the applicability of such multifunctional devices toward diverse biomedical applications.

Published: September 2018

AbstractForce touch sensors have received a great deal of attention for various applications owing to their versatile ability to detect touch and pressure. To demonstrate high‐performance force touch sensors, numerous studies have been performed, focusing on high sensitivity, transparency, and mechanical durability against bending. However, it is still challenging to apply force touch sensors in flexible applications, because their sensing performance is subject to change and degraded by induced mechanical stress and deformation when the device is bent. Here, a high‐performance and transparent nanoforce touch sensor with bending‐insensitivity is reported. This is achieved by developing a thin, flexible, and transparent hierarchical nanocomposite film, which is composed of a nanostructured plastic base, coplanar electrodes, and a dielectric polymer layer with silver nanoparticles. The fabrication process is simple that high manufacturing repeatability, uniformity, and reliability are achieved on a large‐area (8 in.) scale. The fabricated device shows a pressure sensitivity of 0.036 kPa−1 with high transparency (83%) in a pressure range up to 3 kPa. In particular, its thin thickness (45 µm) and the coplanar electrode enable to achieve excellent insensitivity to the bending with a radius of curvature of 4 mm more than 10 000 times.
The Role of Graphene and Other 2D Materials in Solar Photovoltaics

Published: September 2018

Abstract2D materials have attracted considerable attention due to their exciting optical and electronic properties, and demonstrate immense potential for next‐generation solar cells and other optoelectronic devices. With the scaling trends in photovoltaics moving toward thinner active materials, the atomically thin bodies and high flexibility of 2D materials make them the obvious choice for integration with future‐generation photovoltaic technology. Not only can graphene, with its high transparency and conductivity, be used as the electrodes in solar cells, but also its ambipolar electrical transport enables it to serve as both the anode and the cathode. 2D materials beyond graphene, such as transition‐metal dichalcogenides, are direct‐bandgap semiconductors at the monolayer level, and they can be used as the active layer in ultrathin flexible solar cells. However, since no 2D material has been featured in the roadmap of standard photovoltaic technologies, a proper synergy is still lacking between the recently growing 2D community and the conventional solar community. A comprehensive review on the current state‐of‐the‐art of 2D‐materials‐based solar photovoltaics is presented here so that the recent advances of 2D materials for solar cells can be employed for formulating the future roadmap of various photovoltaic technologies.

Published: September 2018

AbstractFlexible and stretchable physical sensors capable of both energy harvesting and self‐powered sensing are vital to the rapid advancements in wearable electronics. Even so, there exist few studies that can integrate energy harvesting and self‐powered sensing into a single electronic skin. Here, a stretchable and washable skin‐inspired triboelectric nanogenerator (SI‐TENG) is developed for both biomechanical energy harvesting and versatile pressure sensing. A planar and designable conductive yarn network constructed from a three‐ply‐twisted silver‐coated nylon yarn is embedded into flexible elastomer, endowing the SI‐TENG with desired stretchability, good sensitivity, high detection precision, fast responsivity, and excellent mechanical stability. With a maximum average power density of 230 mW m−2, the SI‐TENG is able to light up 170 light‐emitting diodes, charge various capacitors, and drive miniature electronic products. As a self‐powered multifunctional sensor, the SI‐TENG is adopted to monitor human physiological signals, such as arterial pulse and voice vibrations. Furthermore, an intelligent prosthetic hand, a self‐powered pedometer/speedometer, a flexible digital keyboard, and a proof‐of‐concept pressure‐sensor array with 8 × 8 sensing pixels are successively demonstrated to further confirm its versatile application prospects. Based on these merits, the developed SI‐TENG has promising applications in wearable powering technology, physiological monitoring, intelligent prostheses, and human–machine interfaces.
Thrombopoietin level predicts response to treatment with eltrombopag and romiplostim in immune thrombocytopenia
Authors: Al‐Samkari Hanny , Kuter David J. 
Published: September 2018

AbstractThrombopoietin receptor agonists (TPO‐RAs) are used to treat immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), but predicting clinical response to TPO‐RAs before initiation is not possible. To determine whether endogenous TPO levels predict treatment response to TPO‐RAs we performed a retrospective analysis of ITP patients with known baseline TPO levels who received TPO‐RAs. Data was collected for ITP patients with a baseline TPO level treated with eltrombopag or romiplostim. Multiple logistic regression was used to model the probability of 3 classes of treatment response (overall, moderate, and superior) based on TPO level; receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was performed to identify optimal TPO thresholds for response; correlations between TPO level and various response characteristics were analyzed. A total of 67 patients (37 receiving eltrombopag and 46 receiving romiplostim) were included. Logistic regression models demonstrated a significant predictive relation between TPO level and probability of all classes of response; per 10 pg/mL TPO increase, odds ratio for overall response to eltrombopag was 0.524 (95% CI 0.327, 0.837) and romiplostim was 0.905 (95% CI, 0.844, 0.970). TPO level was inversely correlated with all classes of response; for overall response, r = −0.719 (P < .001) for eltrombopag and r = −0.584 (P < .001) for romiplostim. ROC analysis identified TPO thresholds of ≤136 pg/mL (eltrombopag) and ≤209 pg/mL (romiplostim) as optimally discriminating between responders and nonresponders. Most non‐responders had high TPO levels but did respond after addition of low‐dose prednisone. In conclusion, TPO levels predict response to eltrombopag and romiplostim in ITP patients, with lower levels predicting improved probability and magnitude of response.
Low temperature decreases bone mass in mice: Implications for humans

Published: September 2018

AbstractObjectivesHumans exhibit significant ecogeographic variation in bone size and shape. However, it is unclear how significantly environmental temperature influences cortical and trabecular bone, making it difficult to recognize adaptation versus acclimatization in past populations. There is some evidence that cold‐induced bone loss results from sympathetic nervous system activation and can be reduced by nonshivering thermogenesis (NST) via uncoupling protein (UCP1) in brown adipose tissue (BAT). Here we test two hypotheses: (1) low temperature induces impaired cortical and trabecular bone acquisition and (2) UCP1, a marker of NST in BAT, increases in proportion to degree of low‐temperature exposure.MethodsWe housed wildtype C57BL/6J male mice in pairs at 26 °C (thermoneutrality), 22 °C (standard), and 20 °C (cool) from 3 weeks to 6 or 12 weeks of age with access to food and water ad libitum (N = 8/group).ResultsCool housed mice ate more but had lower body fat at 20 °C versus 26 °C. Mice at 20 °C had markedly lower distal femur trabecular bone volume fraction, thickness, and connectivity density and lower midshaft femur cortical bone area fraction versus mice at 26 °C (p < .05 for all). UCP1 expression in BAT was inversely related to temperature.DiscussionThese results support the hypothesis that low temperature was detrimental to bone mass acquisition. Nonshivering thermogenesis in brown adipose tissue increased in proportion to low‐temperature exposure but was insufficient to prevent bone loss. These data show that chronic exposure to low temperature impairs bone architecture, suggesting climate may contribute to phenotypic variation in humans and other hominins.
