Authors: Green Ellen , Huynh Annette , Broussard Lori , Zunker Brady , Matthews Jerril , Hilton Claudia L. , Aranha Karen 
Published: January 2019

Abstract
This systematic review examines the efficacy of yoga as a neuromuscular intervention for community-dwelling populations at risk for falls to determine its utility for use in occupational therapy intervention. Populations included older adults and adults with traumatic brain injury (TBI), cerebrovascular accident (CVA), dementia and Alzheimer’s disease (AD)–type dementia, multiple sclerosis (MS), and Parkinson’s disease (PD). Benefits of yoga include improved posture control, improved flexibility of mind and body, relaxation, and decreased anxiety and stress. A systematic review of the literature was conducted to understand the salutary benefits of yoga for clients who are at risk for falls because of neuromuscular issues. Moderate evidence supports the use of yoga to decrease the risk for falls for community-dwelling older adults and people with CVA, dementia and AD-type dementia, and MS. Studies involving people with TBI and PD did not include strong enough evidence to be able to make a clear classification.
Resting-State Electroencephalography in Participants With Sensory Overresponsiveness: An Exploratory Study
Authors: Granovsky Yelena , Weissman-Fogel Irit , Bar-Shalita Tami 
Published: January 2019

Abstract
OBJECTIVE. People with sensory overresponsiveness (SOR) perceive nonpainful stimuli as noxious and demonstrate hyperalgesia and lingering sensation to laboratory pain stimuli. Electroencephalography (EEG) of cortical activity at rest is widely used to explore endophenotypes but has not yet been tested in people with SOR. Therefore, we investigated the characteristics of resting-state EEG in participants with SOR.
METHOD. Resting-state EEG (5-min, eyes-closed recording) was compared in participants with (n = 9) and without (n = 12) SOR.
RESULTS. Participants with SOR demonstrated a global reduction of the EEG activity, including significantly lower θ and α1 activity as well as faster peak α frequency. Higher sensory-responsiveness scores were associated with high peak α power in participants without SOR.
CONCLUSION. Reduced α activity is commonly interpreted as an electrophysiological indicator of arousal and sensitivity to pain. The EEG pattern of response may partly explain the reported ongoing daily alertness to environmental stimuli in participants with SOR.
Subseasonal hydrometeorological ensemble predictions in small- and medium-sized mountainous catchments: benefits of the NWP approach
Authors: Monhart Samuel , Zappa Massimiliano , Spirig Christoph , Schär Christoph , Bogner Konrad 
Published: January 2019

Abstract. Traditional ensemble streamflow prediction (ESP) systems are known to
provide a valuable baseline to predict streamflows at the subseasonal to
seasonal timescale. They exploit a combination of initial conditions and past
meteorological observations, and can often provide useful forecasts of the
expected streamflow in the upcoming month. In recent years, numerical weather
prediction (NWP) models for subseasonal to seasonal timescales have made
large progress and can provide added value to such a traditional ESP
approach. Before using such meteorological predictions two major problems
need to be solved: the correction of biases, and downscaling to
increase the
spatial resolution. Various methods exist to overcome these problems, but the
potential of using NWP information and the relative merit of the different
statistical and modelling steps remain
open. To address this question, we compare a traditional ESP system with a
subseasonal hydrometeorological ensemble prediction system in three alpine
catchments with varying hydroclimatic conditions and areas between 80 and
1700 km2. Uncorrected and corrected (pre-processed) temperature and
precipitation reforecasts from the ECMWF subseasonal NWP model are used to
run the hydrological simulations and the performance of the resulting
streamflow predictions is assessed with commonly used verification scores
characterizing different aspects of the forecasts (ensemble mean and spread).
Our results indicate that the NWP-based approach can provide superior
prediction to the ESP approach, especially at shorter lead times. In
snow-dominated catchments the pre-processing of the meteorological input
further improves the performance of the predictions. This is most pronounced
in late winter and spring when snow melting occurs. Moreover, our results
highlight the importance of snow-related processes for subseasonal streamflow
predictions in mountainous regions.
El deterioro de la vida pública en el contexto de la globalización
Authors: Recio Sastre Alejandro 
Published: January 2019

La vida pública ha sufrido importantes transformaciones en los dos ´últimos siglos. La modernidad puso en auge un individualismo que reivindicaba el espacio privado como principio desde el que se acota y vertebra el espacio público. Con la entrada del neoliberalismo y la expansión del mercado a nivel global, la res pública ha perdido parte de su densidad. Además, la exigencia de que los
Estados actúen como empresas implica que el sector público quede subsumido a los movimientos y variables del mercado global. De este modo, el Estado acaba dirigiendo las actividades del sector público mediante la lógica economicista del sector privado, persiguiendo rentabilizar sus servicios subcontratándolos a empresas privadas en nombre de una mayor eficiencia. Asimismo, los ciudadanos terminan por valorar la cobertura pública de servicios fundamentales solo en función de sus intereses privados y beneficios. Por ello, el ciudadano actual ha perdido toda referencia sobre su condición pública.

Incorporating a Standardized Online Professionalism Curriculum in Osteopathic Medical School
Authors: Riley Bernadette 
Published: January 2019

Abstract
Online social media platforms increase patients’ access to physicians, thus potentially blurring the boundaries between physicians’ professional and private lives. Although many medical organizations have established guidelines on how physicians should proceed on social media and social networking sites (SNSs), there has not been a mandated standardized curriculum on the use of social media, SNSs, and online professionalism for physicians or medical students. With the increase in physician involvement on social media and SNSs, professionalism issues can emerge. Online professionalism complaints have been increasing. Therefore, osteopathic medical students need to be taught the dangers and benefits of engaging with online media. This article seeks to address the need for mandating a standardized online professionalism curriculum for osteopathic medical students and show how a simulation-based medical education curriculum can help accomplish this goal.
Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment for Pertussis in the 19th and 20th Centuries: A Structured Historical Literature Review
Authors: Liem Torsten 
Published: January 2019

AbstractBackgroundCases of pertussis, or whooping cough, have increased in recent years despite widespread vaccination and adequate antibiotic treatments. Osteopathic physicians may want to consider using osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT) as an adjunctive treatment modality for pertussis; however, suitable OMT techniques are not specified in the research literature.ObjectiveTo search the historical osteopathic literature to identify OMT techniques that were used in the management of pertussis in the pre-antibiotic era.MethodsA structured literature review of electronic databases and historical osteopathic journals and books was conducted. Included were information on OMT techniques used for patients with pertussis.ResultsThe 24 identified sources included 8 articles and 16 book contributions from the years 1886 to 1958. Most sources were published within the first quarter of the 20th century. Commonly identified OMT techniques included mobilization techniques, lymphatic pump techniques, and other manipulative techniques predominantly in the cervical and thoracic regions.ConclusionThe wealth of OMT techniques for patients with pertussis that were identified suggests that pertussis was commonly treated by early osteopaths. Further research is necessary to identify or establish the evidence base for these techniques so that in case of favorable outcomes, their use by osteopathic physicians is justified as adjunctive modalities when encountering a patient with pertussis.
Waveform Selective Surfaces

Published: January 2019

AbstractThe role of frequency is very important in electromagnetics since it may significantly change how a material interacts with an incident wave if the frequency spectrum varies. Here, a new kind of microwave window is demonstrated that has the unique property of controlling transmission and reflection based on not only the frequency of an incoming wave but also the waveform or pulse width. This is achieved by designing a planar periodic surface with circuit elements including diodes, which convert most of the incoming signal to zero frequency. This surface can preferentially pass or reject different kinds of signals, such as short pulses or continuous waves, even if they occur at the same frequency. Such a structure can be used, for example, to allow long communication signals to pass through, while rejecting short radar pulses in the same frequency band. It is related to the classic frequency selective surface, but adds the new dimension of waveform selectivity, which is possible only by introducing nonlinear electronics into the surface. Thus, the study is expected to provide new solutions to both fundamental and applied electromagnetic issues ranging from traditional antenna design and wireless communications to emerging areas such as cloaking, perfect lenses, and wavefront shaping.

AbstractNanowire aerogels (NWAs) are highly versatile and used in many applications. However, most synthesized NWAs are composed of single components that may produce unsatisfactory aggregated performance in mechanical strength, conductivity, and electrochemistry. To address this issue, a reticulate dual‐nanowire aerogel (rDNWA) composed of FeS2 nanowires and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) via a simple solvothermal method is synthesized. The rDNWA possesses excellent compressibility (modulus of 1.32 MPa), good conductivity (0.65 S cm−1), and high porosity (>98%). It can be applied as a high‐performance strain sensor with good sensitivity (Gauge Factor = 1.69) and enhanced stability. It can be densified to yield a high areal capacity of 10.0 mAh cm−2 and a high mass loading of 14.4 mg cm−2 after 100 cycles. As a freestanding anode for lithium ion battery (LIB), it exhibits a high specific mass capacity of 1031 mAh g−1 after 100 cycles at a current density of 100 mA g−1 and retains it to 729 mAh g−1 at a current density of 500 mA g−1 after 400 cycles. The outstanding overall performance of the hybrid aerogel is derived from the synergistic effect of intertwined CNTs and FeS2 nanowires and can be extended to fabricate NWAs with novel multifunctional capabilities.

Published: January 2019

AbstractHerein, a simple and facile strategy is described to obtain chiroptically active semiconductor thin films by blending of poly(3‐alkylthiophene)s, which are conventional achiral polymer semiconductors, and 1,1′‐binaphthyl (BN), a versatile chiral molecule. As expected, the intermolecular interaction between the two materials is important to extend the chirality of the binaphthyl molecules to the hybrid films. The controlled phase separation and crystallization of poly[3‐(6‐carboxyhexyl)thiophene‐2,5‐diyl] (P3CT) and binaphthyl hybrid films result in unique heterojunction bilayer thin‐film structures that consisted of BN microcrystals at the top and a P3CT/BN mixed layer at the bottom. Such heterojunction bilayer films exhibit significantly amplified chiroptical response with weak broadened tails, which is due to the enhanced crystallization of the chiral BN molecules and formation of heteroaggregates in the hybrid films. Based on the characterization of crystalline structure and photoluminescence analysis, it is found that new electronic energy states are formed in the conduction band region of P3CTs in the P3CT/BN heteroaggregates, which contribute to chirality transfer from BN to the hybrid films. As a proof of concept, a photodiode capable of distinguishably sensing the left‐ and right‐handed circularly polarized light is successfully fabricated by using the hybrid films with the heterojunction bilayer structure.
Magnetocontrollable Droplet and Bubble Manipulation on a Stable Amphibious Slippery Gel Surface

Published: January 2019

AbstractSmart manipulation of liquid/bubble transport has garnered widespread attention due to its potential applications in many fields. Designing a responsive surface has emerged as an effective strategy for achieving controllable transport of liquids/bubbles. However, it is still challenging to fabricate stable amphibious responsive surfaces that can be used for the smart manipulation of liquid in air and bubbles underwater. Here, amphibious slippery surfaces are fabricated using magnetically responsive soft poly(dimethylsiloxane) doped with iron powder and silicone oil. The slippery gel surface retains its magnetic responsiveness and demonstrates strong affinity for bubbles underwater but shows small and switching resistance forces with the water droplets in air and bubbles underwater, which is the key factor for achieving the controllable transport of liquids/bubbles. On the slippery gel surface, the sliding behaviors of water droplets and bubbles can be reversibly controlled by alternately applying/removing an external magnetic field. Notably, compared with slippery liquid‐infused porous surfaces, the slippery gel surface demonstrates outstanding stability, whether in air or underwater, even after 100 cycles of alternately applying/removing the magnetic field. This surface shows potential applications in gas/liquid microreactors, gas–liquid mixed fluid transportation, bubble/droplet manipulation, etc.

Published: January 2019

AbstractSelective transport of mass through membranes, so‐called separation, is fundamental to many industrial applications, e.g., water desalination and gas separation. Graphynes, graphene analogs yet containing intrinsic uniformly distributed pores, are excellent candidates for highly permeable and selective membranes owing to their extreme thinness and high porosity. Graphynes exhibit computationally determined separation performance far beyond experimentally measured values of commercial state‐of‐the‐art polyamide membranes; they also offer advantages over other atomically thin membranes like porous graphene in terms of controllability in pore geometry. Here, recent progress in proof‐of‐concept computational research into various graphynes for water desalination and gas separation is discussed, and their theoretically predicted outstanding permeability and selectivity are highlighted. Challenges associated with the future development of graphyne‐based membranes are further analyzed, concentrating on controlled synthesis of graphyne, maintenance of high structural stability to withstand loading pressures, as well asthe demand for accurate computational characterization of separation performance. Finally, possible directions are discussed to align future efforts in order to push graphynes and other 2D material membranes toward practical separation applications.

Published: January 2019

AbstractAlthough metal nanoparticles (NPs) stabilized with self‐assembled monolayers (SAMs) of various organic ligands have proven useful in applications ranging from chemical sensing, to bionanotechnology, to plasmonics and energy conversion, they have not been widely considered as suitable building blocks of electronic circuitry, largely because metals screen electric fields and prevent electrically tunable conductivity. However, when metal nanoparticles a few nanometers in size are stabilized by charged ligands and placed under bias, the counterions surrounding the NPs can redistribute and establish local electric fields that feed back into the electronic currents passing through the nanoparticles' metallic cores. Herein, the manner in which the interplay between counterion gradients and electron flows can be controlled by using different types of SAMs is discussed. This can give rise to a new class of nanoparticle‐based “chemoelectronic” logic circuits capable of sensing, processing, and ultimately reporting various chemical signals.

Published: January 2019

AbstractOwing to their high earth‐abundance, eco‐friendliness, high electrical conductivity, large surface area, structure tunability at the atomic/morphological levels, and excellent stability in harsh conditions, carbon‐based metal‐free materials have become promising advanced electrode materials for high‐performance pseudocapacitors and metal–air batteries. Furthermore, carbon‐based nanomaterials with well‐defined structures can function as green catalysts because of their efficiency in advanced oxidation processes to remove organics in air or from water, which reduces the cost for air/water purification and avoids cross‐contamination by eliminating the release of heavy metals/metal ions. Here, the research and development of carbon‐based catalysts in supercapacitors and batteries for clean energy storage as well as in air/water treatments for environmental remediation are reviewed. The related mechanistic understanding and design principles of carbon‐based metal‐free catalysts are illustrated, along with the challenges and perspectives in this emerging field.

AbstractInterrogation and control of cellular fate and function using optogenetics is providing revolutionary insights into biology. Optogenetic control of cells is achieved by coupling genetically encoded photoreceptors to cellular effectors and enables unprecedented spatiotemporal control of signaling processes. Here, a fast and reversibly switchable photoreceptor is used to tune the mechanical properties of polymer materials in a fully reversible, wavelength‐specific, and dose‐ and space‐controlled manner. By integrating engineered cyanobacterial phytochrome 1 into a poly(ethylene glycol) matrix, hydrogel materials responsive to light in the cell‐compatible red/far‐red spectrum are synthesized. These materials are applied to study in human mesenchymal stem cells how different mechanosignaling pathways respond to changing mechanical environments and to control the migration of primary immune cells in 3D. This optogenetics‐inspired matrix allows fundamental questions of how cells react to dynamic mechanical environments to be addressed. Further, remote control of such matrices can create new opportunities for tissue engineering or provide a basis for optically stimulated drug depots.

Published: January 2019

AbstractThe development of wearable, all‐in‐one sensors that can simultaneously monitor several hazard conditions in a real‐time fashion imposes the emergent requirement for a smart and stretchable hazard avoidance sensing platform that is stretchable and skin‐like. Multifunctional sensors with these features are problematic and challenging to accomplish. In this context, a multimodal ferrofluid‐based triboelectric nanogenerator (FO‐TENG), featuring sensing capabilities to a variety of hazard stimulus such as a strong magnetic field, noise level, and falling or drowning is reported. The FO‐TENG consists of a deformable elastomer tube filled with a ferrofluid, as a triboelectric layer, surrounded by a patterned copper wire, as an electrode, endowing the FO‐TENG with excellent waterproof ability, conformability, and stretchability (up to 300%). In addition, The FO‐TENG is highly flexible and sustains structural integrity and detection capability under repetitive deformations, including bending and twisting. This FO‐TENG represents a smart multifaceted sensing platform that has a unique capacity in diverse applications including hazard preventive wearables, and remote healthcare monitoring.
