AbstractBackgroundIndividual‐ and population‐level socioeconomic disadvantages contribute to unequal outcomes among childhood cancer survivors. Reducing health disparities requires understanding experiences of survivors from historically marginalized communities, including those with non‐English language preference.ProcedureWe partnered with a community‐based organization (CBO) serving families of children with cancer in a rural region in California with low socioeconomic status and majority Hispanic/Latino (H/L) residents. We interviewed English‐ and Spanish‐speaking adolescent/young adult (AYA) childhood cancer survivors (≥15 years old, ≥5 years from diagnosis), parents, and CBO staff to evaluate post‐treatment needs and impact of CBO support. Data were analyzed qualitatively using applied thematic analysis. Themes were refined through team discussions with our community partners.ResultsTwelve AYAs (11 H/L, 11 bilingual), 11 parents (eight H/L, seven non‐English preferred), and seven CBO staff (five H/L, five bilingual) participated. AYAs (five female, seven male) were of median (min–max) age 20 (16–32) and 9 (5–19) years post diagnosis; parents (nine female, two male) were age 48 (40–60) and 14 (6–23) years post child's diagnosis. Themes included challenges navigating healthcare, communication barriers among the parent–AYA–clinician triad, and lasting effects of childhood cancer on family dynamics and mental health. Subthemes illustrated that language and rurality may contribute to health disparities. CBO support impacted families by serving as a safety‐net, fostering community, and facilitating H/L families’ communication.ConclusionsChildhood cancer has long‐lasting effects on families, and those with non‐English language preference face additional burdens. Community‐based support buffers some of the negative effects of childhood cancer and may reduce disparities.

AbstractCD25 is an aberrant marker expressed on the leukemic stem cell (LSC) surface and an immunotherapy target in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). However, the clinical prevalence and significance of CD25 expression in pediatric AML are unknown. High IL2RA/CD25 expression in pediatric AML showed a stem cell‐like phenotype, and elevated CD25 expression was associated with lower overall survival (p < .001) and event‐free survival (p < .001) in the Japanese Pediatric Leukemia/Lymphoma Study Group AML‐05 study. This finding was reproduced in AML without a core‐binding factor in the Children's Oncology Group study cohort. High CD25 expression has prognostic significance in pediatric AML.

AbstractIn the aerospace sector, the identification and extraction of surface defects on composite parts is particularly important as they can have a very serious impact. This paper proposes a new extraction method for surface defects of composite materials, where 3D point clouds on the surface of composite workpieces are directly manipulated to finally extract a point cloud of defects containing both morphological and spatial location information. The specific operation explores the influencing factors in the formation and extraction process of composite surface defects and summarizes them into five categories: material type, fiber direction, curvature algorithm, neighborhood size, and filtering threshold. The Multilayer Perceptron‐Moth Flame algorithm two‐stage network model was constructed, which can reveal the relationship between these five types of influencing factors and the formation and extraction of surface defects in composites in the forward direction with an accuracy of 93.07%. It can also achieve optimal parameter recommendation in the reverse direction.Highlights
Automatic identification and extraction of defects on the surface of composite workpieces is achieved based on 3D point cloud and curvature calculation.
The forward direction reveals the relationship between the surface defect formation process and the material type and fabric direction.
The reverse direction can automatically select the best curvature algorithm, neighborhood size, and filtering condition parameters.

Using stories to explore the lived experience of alcohol consumption in people with diabetes mellitus
Authors: Charlton Jacqui , MacDonald Kath 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
Background: Evidence supports the risks of dangerous episodes of hypoglycaemia, hyperglycaemia, or extreme glucose variability in type 1 diabetes during and after alcohol consumption. Minimal evidence regarding preventative self‐care strategies exists, and people with type 1 diabetes can develop personal tactics to overcome risks. Combining the lived experience of managing alcohol consumption while living with diabetes will enrich new patient and health care professional education.Methods: Participants were recruited from social media, and attended between one and three online storytelling workshops. Demographic data were collected by questionnaire, and qualitative data were collected by note‐taking during the online sessions and evaluated by thematic analysis.Results: Nine participants aged 18–36 years (type 1 diabetes = seven [three female], and type 2 diabetes = two [both male]) were recruited. Insulin administration was by multiple daily injection therapy (n=5 including one type 2 diabetes), continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (n=3) without hybrid closed loop, and sulphonylurea plus morning long‐acting analogue insulin (n=1 type 2 diabetes). From the nine participant stories three diabetic ketoacidosis, three hypoglycaemia, and one extreme glucose variability episodes occurred. Four clustered themes were found: living with diabetes, managing alcohol, app development suggestions, and future development suggestions.Discussion: New insights discovered were: distressing glucose risks including diabetic ketoacidosis episodes, misinterpretation of glucose and intoxication symptoms, trial and error approaches, and non‐disclosure to health care professionals regarding severe glucose situations.

Published: December 2023

AbstractThis work presents a method to produce conductive and auxetic composite membranes from a biobased and biodegradable matrix: polybutylene succinate (PBS). The conductivity was improved by the addition of graphene nanoplatelets (GNP) and the samples were produced via solution electrospinning. The membrane properties were shown to increase with increasing GNP concentration and the rotational speed of the collector. In particular, a membrane having 0.2% w/v GNP and fabricated at the highest collector speed (9.96 m/s) showed the highest electrical conductivity (1.56 × 10−4 S/m) while having a negative Poisson's ratio (NPR) of −1.5 in tension. To complete the analysis, mechanical characterizations showed that the presence of GNP led to a substantial increase in Young's modulus (234%) and tensile strength (190%) compared to the neat PBS membrane produced under the same conditions. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) revealed a slight crystallinity increase since GNP are acting as heterogeneous nucleating agents, while thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) showed an improved thermal stability for the GNP/PBS membranes. This unique combination of auxetic and conductive properties can be useful for a wide range of innovative applications such as electronic devices, smart textiles, biomaterials, and biomedical devices.Highlights
Electrospinning was successful to produce polybutylene succinate (PBS) nanofibers.
A careful control of the processing conditions led to auxetic fiber mats.
Electrically conductive mats were produced by adding graphene nanoplatelets (GNP) to PBS.
The PBS mechanical properties were highly improved (200%) with low GNP content (0.2%).
Parents' perceived risks and benefits on avoidance of street food near schools in Indonesia: Moderating role of school type
Authors: Nurhidayati Vieta Annisa , Seo Sunhee 
Published: December 2023

AbstractThis study identified the influence of parents' perceived risks and benefits on children's avoidance of street food near schools in Indonesia. It also assessed how food risk knowledge and trust in food sellers influence risk—benefit perceptions and the moderating effect of school type. An online survey was conducted with 576 parents of elementary schoolchildren in Jakarta and West Java, and structural equation modeling was performed to test the hypotheses. The results showed that parents' avoidance of street food near schools was significantly influenced by parents' health and sanitation risk perception and nutritional benefit perception. Parents' perceived health and sanitation risk and food risk in street food near schools increased as they gained more food risk knowledge. However, trust in food sellers decreased their perception of risks. Multiple group analysis revealed a moderating effect of school type. Some of the influences were observed only in the parents from public school. The findings suggest that government regulations, school‐based nutrition education, and parental support are needed to ensure safe and nutritious street food near schools; thus, schoolchildren can access safe, healthy, and nutritious foods.

AbstractObjectiveVarious psychosocial interventions have been developed to reduce distress and improve quality of life (QoL) in patients with advanced cancer, many of which are traditional cognitive‐behavioral interventions (CBIs) or mindfulness‐based interventions (MBIs). The aims of this meta‐analysis were to determine and compare the overall effects of traditional CBIs and MBIs on distress and QoL in this population and to explore potential moderators of intervention efficacy.MethodsA systematic search was conducted in CINAHL, Embase, PsycINFO, PubMed, and Web of Science. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing CBIs or MBIs to controls on distress and QoL outcomes were eligible for inclusion. Random effects meta‐analyses using standardized baseline to post‐intervention mean differences were calculated using Hedges's g. Meta‐regressions were used to compare intervention effects and examine potential moderators.ResultsAcross 37 RCTs (21 CBIs, 14 MBIs, 2 combination therapies), there was a small decrease in distress (Hedges's g = 0.21) and a minimal improvement in QoL (Hedges's g = 0.15). Traditional CBIs and MBIs did not differ in effect sizes. Heterogeneity was significant across distress effect sizes but not across QoL effects. Interventions delivered to individuals (vs. dyads/group) had larger effects on QoL. No moderators of intervention effects on distress were found.ConclusionsFindings suggest traditional CBIs and MBIs produce small reductions in distress compared to controls in patients with advanced cancer, although effects on QoL appear minimal. Given limitations in the number of studies and their quality, rigorous trials are needed to directly compare the impact of traditional CBIs and MBIs in this population.

The airfoil of the wing is designed based on lift and drag generation mechanisms, and the wing is manufactured using the expanded polypropylene injection method. Drawing inspiration from the tail fin of natural falcons, the tail is designed and an aerodynamic model is established to guide the tail control surface's variation range. During the flight test, the FWFR demonstrates outstanding maneuverability. It achieves a rapid roll angle of within 1 s. Moreover, it exhibits a rapid descent, reaching a descent rate of 15 m in 2 s. Additionally, the FWFR attains a maximum speed of 20 m/s. The FWFR successfully executes several dive and turn maneuvers, thereby showcasing its exceptional maneuverability.

Published: December 2023

AbstractEven lithium‐rich manganese oxides (LRMOs) are considered as promising cathode materials for next‐generation lithium‐ion batteries, their commercialization is hindered mainly by the low initial Coulombic efficiency, poor cyclability and unexpected capacity fade. Here, a synergistic modification strategy by using both F doping and weak organic acid surface treatment is proposed to improve the electrochemical performances of LRMOs significantly. Optimized Li1.2Mn0.54Ni0.13Co0.13O1.95F0.05 sample with surface oxygen vacancy defects and thin carbon coating layer exhibits profound electrochemical performances, for example, discharging capacities of 298.6 and 212.5 mAh g−1 at 0.1 C and 1 C rate, respectively. In addition, it can own an initial Coulombic efficiency of 84.4%, which is much higher than that of untreated sample. In situ X‐ray diffraction analysis implies that synergistic modification can enhance the skeleton stability of LRMOs , especially at a high state of charge. Galvanostatic intermittent titration technique analysis suggests that as‐developed synergistic modification can accelerate the lithium ions diffusion. Theoretical calculations reveal that substituted F and oxygen vacancy defects can diminish the diffusion energy barrier of Li+ ions. This work provides a new synergistic modification strategy to improve the comprehensive properties of LRMO cathode effectively.

Published: December 2023

AbstractCytochrome C (Cytc) has received considerable attention due to its ability to induce tumor apoptosis and generate oxygen to improve photodynamic therapy (PDT) efficiency. However, the damage to normal tissues caused by nonspecific accumulation of Cytc limits its application. Herein, in order to reduce its toxicity to normal tissues while retaining its activity, a charge conversional biomimetic nanosystem (CA/Ce6@MSN‐4T1) is proposed to improve the tumor targeting ability and realize controlled release of Cytc in the tumor microenvironment. This nanosystem is constructed by coating tumor cell membrane on mesoporous silica nanoparticles coloaded with a photosensitizer (chlorin e6, Ce6) and the citraconic anhydride conjugated Cytc (CA) for synergistic photodynamic/protein therapy. The coating of the tumor cell membrane endows the nanoparticles with homologous targeting ability to the same cancer cells as well as immune escaping capability. CA undergoes charge conversion in the acidic environment of the tumor to achieve a controlled release of Cytc. The released Cytc can relieve cellular hypoxia to improve the PDT efficiency of Ce6 and can induce programmed cell death. Both in vitro and in vivo studies demonstrated that CA/Ce6@MSN‐4T1 can efficiently inhibit the growth of tumors through synergistic photodynamic/protein therapy, and meanwhile show reduced side effects on normal tissues.

AbstractThe electrode buffer layer is crucial for high‐performance and stable OSCs, optimizing charge transport and energy level alignment at the interface between the polymer active layer and electrode. Recently, SnO2 has emerged as a promising material for the cathode buffer layer due to its desirable properties, such as high electron mobility, transparency, and stability. Typically, SnO2 nanoparticle layers require a postannealing treatment above 150°C in an air environment to remove the surfactant ligands and obtain high‐quality thin films. However, this poses challenges for flexible electronics as flexible substrates can't tolerate temperatures exceeding 100°C. This study presents solution‐processable and annealing‐free SnO2 nanoparticles by employing y‐ray irradiation to disrupt the bonding between surfactant ligands and SnO2 nanoparticles. The SnO2 layer treated with y‐ray irradiation is used as an electron transport layer in OSCs based on PTB7‐Th:IEICO‐4F. Compared to the conventional SnO2 nanoparticles that required high‐temperature annealing, the y‐SnO2 nanoparticle‐based devices exhibit an 11% comparable efficiency without postannealing at a high temperature. Additionally, y‐ray treatment has been observed to eliminate the light‐soaking effect of SnO2. By eliminating the high‐temperature postannealing and light‐soaking effect, y‐SnO2 nanoparticles offer a promising, cost‐effective solution for future flexible solar cells fabricated using roll‐to‐roll mass processing.

AbstractAll inorganic perovskite based on CsPbI2Br has attracted significant attention due to its relatively thermal stable structure compare to its hybrid counterparts. With a wide bandgap of 1.9 eV and excellent light absorption capability, it has been extensively explored for applications in indoor photovoltaics and as a front absorber in tandem devices. However, the uncontrollable crystallization process during solvent evaporation and thermal annealing leads to both macroscopic defects like cracks and microscopic defects such as voids. In this study, a metastable adduct with lead (II) halides by incorporating 4‐tert‐butyl pyridine as a volatile Lewis base monodentate ligand in the precursor solution is formed. The strategic preferential decomposition of the adduct during the early‐stage low‐temperature annealing facilitated the desorption of lead (II) halides, inducing antisolvent‐free heterogenous nucleation. This, in turn, promoted crystal growth during subsequent high‐temperature annealing, resulting in dense films with low defect density. As a result, a maximum open‐circuit voltage of 1.30 V is achieved with the champion power conversion efficiency of 16.5% in CsPbI2Br‐based perovskite solar cell. The work reveals a new mechanism of using Lewis acid‐base adduct to obtain high quality perovskite films other than hindering crystallization in traditional way.

AbstractReconfiguration of zinc anodes efficiently mitigates dendrite formation and undesirable side reactions, thus favoring the long‐term cycling performance of aqueous zinc ion batteries (AZIBs). This study synthesizes a Zn@Bi alloy anode (Zn@Bi) using the fusion method, and find that the anode surfaces synthesized using this method have an extremely high percentage of Zn(002) crystalline surfaces. Experimental results indicate that the addition of bismuth inhibits the hydrogen evolution reaction and corrosion of zinc anodes. The finite‐element simulation results indicate that Zn@Bi can effectively achieve a uniform anodic electric field, thereby regulating the homogeneous depositions of zinc ions and reducing the production of Zn dendrite. Theoretical calculations reveal that the incorporation of Bi favors the anode structure stabilization and higher adsorption energy of Zn@Bi corresponds to better Zn deposition kinetics. The Zn@Bi//Zn@Bi symmetric cell demonstrates an extended cycle life of 1000 h. Furthermore, when pairing Zn@Bi with an α‐MnO2 cathode to construct a Zn@Bi//MnO2 cell, a specific capacity of 119.3 mAh g−1 is maintained even after 1700 cycles at 1.2 A g−1. This study sheds light on the development of dendrite‐free anodes for advanced AZIBs.

Published: December 2023

AbstractThe power conversion efficiency (PCE) and stability of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are significantly reduced by defect‐induced charge non‐radiative recombination. Also, unexpected residual strain in perovskite films leads to an unfavorable impact on the stability and efficiency of PSCs, notably flexible PSCs (f‐PSCs). Considering these problems, a thorough and effective strategy is proposed by incorporating phytic acid (PA) into SnO2 as an electron transport layer (ETL). With the addition of PA, the Sn inherent dangling bonds are passivated effectively and thus enhance the conductivity and electron mobility of SnO2 ETL. Meanwhile, the crystallization quality of perovskite is increased largely. Therefore, the interface/bulk defects are reduced. Besides, the residual strain of perovskite film is significantly reduced and the energy level alignment at the SnO2/perovskite interface becomes more matched. As a result, the champion f‐PSC obtains a PCE of 21.08% and rigid PSC obtains a PCE of 21.82%, obviously surpassing the PCE of 18.82% and 19.66% of the corresponding control devices. Notably, the optimized f‐PSCs exhibit outstanding mechanical durability, after 5000 cycles of bending with a 5 mm bending radius, the SnO2‐PA‐based device preserves 80% of the initial PCE, while the SnO2‐based device only remains 49% of the initial value.
