Self-managed physical activity in breast cancer survivors: A scoping review
Authors: Bò Maria Chiara , Merlo Andrea , Ligabue Maria Bernadette , Bassi Maria Chiara , Lusuardi Mirco , Campanini Isabella 
Published: April 2023

Objective
Breast cancer survivors (BCS) experience many issues of rehabilitative concern due to the treatments they have undergone. Given the chronicity of these outcomes, the increasing number of survivors, and the positive results obtained by supervised exercise, professionals should consider offering self-managed physical activity (PA) programs to this population. Our aim was to map the currently available evidence about self-care rehabilitation for BCS.

Methods
Medline, CINAHL, and Cochrane databases were searched for primary literature. Scoping review methodological frameworks were used to tackle the heterogeneity of the topic. Studies investigating self-managed PA interventions prescribed to adult BCS were included.

Results
One hundred-eight studies were included, with sample sizes ranging from 6 to 692 patients. Information was systematically collected in tables displaying study design, type of PA, duration and recommended frequency, professional leading the study, type of supervision, initial training, strategies used to help patients integrate self-care into their daily lives, and self-managed PA efficacy. Tables were produced for every oncological side effect that BCS might experience: lymphedema, arthralgia, cancer-related fatigue, a decline in physical parameters, treatment-related cardiotoxicity, peripheral neurotoxicity, and a possible decline in the quality of life.

Conclusions
Self-managed PA has the potential to improve BCS oncological issues. Professionals can adopt many strategies to support patients and empower them with long-lasting self-care competencies. This scoping review provided a comprehensive and easy-to-consult overview of self-managed PA interventions for BCS. We also provided recommendations for future primary studies and secondary synthesis.
Are Scholars’ Wages Correlated with their Human Capital?
Authors: De la Croix David , Docquier Frédéric , Fabre Alice , Stelter Robert 
Published: April 2023

Throughout our project on premodern academia, we use a heuristic human capital index to measure each scholar’s quality. This index is built by combining several statistics from individual Wikipedia and Worldcat pages. The question we address here is whether this measure is correlated with the actual wages professors received. This note is a technical appendix to our paper on the academic market (De la Croix et al. 2020) but also has an interest as a stand-alone publication.
There is considerable evidence that compensations for academic contractswentwell beyond paid salaries.1 They included payments from students, prebends,2 and many forms of in-kind benefits. Yet, it is interesting to examine the relationship between scholars’ human capital and existing data on monetary remunerations. Such remunerations have been used by Dittmar (2019) to show that professor salaries increased significantly relative to skilled wages after printing spread, with science professors benefiting from the largest salary increases. In the two sections below, we first review the available data on salaries, and argue that such data are imperfect proxies for the overall remuneration for academic services (i.e. a scholar’s market value). Keeping in mind such limitations, we thendocument a positive correlation between monetary income and scholars’ human capital.

Published: April 2023

Ao profissional farmacêutico é permitida, respeitadas as atividades afins às demais profissões, a sistematização de ações voltadas à Saúde Ocupacional e Segurança. Tais ações devem considerar as evidências disponíveis que permitam (re)discussões envolvendo processos de tomada de decisão, por sua vez passíveis de sumarização na forma de estudos de mapeamento sistemático da literatura. A atual literatura científica disponível não contempla estudos desta natureza envolvendo a temática da Saúde Ocupacional e Segurança no contexto de atuação farmacêutica. Objetivou-se, via revisão de escopo, a identificação da literatura científica disponível sobre a temática. O estudo adotou as recomendações do Instituto Joanna Briggs, bem como o frame work (composto por cinco dimensões) proposto por Kaynak e colaboradores. Após buscas em 10 bancos de dados (incluindo literatura cinzenta) (envolvendo 24 estratégias e três idiomas distintos) e aplicação dos critérios de inclusão e exclusão, oito manuscritos foram incluídos, todos conduzidos por pesquisadores não brasileiros. Dois dentre os 10 campos de atuação profissional (Farmácia e Farmácia Industrial) foram identificados, e a dimensão Prevenção de Riscos fora a mais identificada ao longo dos manuscritos, estando presente em quatro dos manuscritos recuperados. As evidências orientam para a necessidade de condução de abordagens investigativas voltadas à complementação do corpus de evidência apresentado, em sintonia à valoração dos colaboradores enquanto agentes corresponsáveis e promotores da saúde em contextos laborais.

Abstract

Objectives
To assess the long-term humoral immunity induced by booster administration, as well as the ability of binding antibody and surrogate virus neutralization tests (sVNT) to predict neutralizing antibodies (NAbs) against the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant.

Methods
A total of 269 sera samples were analyzed from 64 healthcare workers who had received a homologous booster dose of BNT162b2. Neutralizing antibodies assessed by sVNT and anti-RBD IgG measured with the sCOVG assay (Siemens Healthineers®) were analyzed at five timepoints; before and up to 6 months following the booster. Antibody titers were correlated with neutralizing antibodies against the Omicron BA.1 variant obtained by pseudovirus neutralization test (pVNT) as a reference method.

Results
While Wild-type sVNT percentage of inhibition (POI) remained above 98.6% throughout the follow-up period after booster administration, anti-RBD IgG and NAbs assessed by Omicron BA.1 pVNT showed respectively a 3.4-fold and 13.3-fold decrease after 6 months compared to the peak reached at day 14. NAbs assessed by Omicron sVNT followed a steady decline until reaching a POI of 53.4%. Anti-RBD IgG and Omicron sVNT assays were strongly correlated (r=0.90) and performed similarly to predict the presence of neutralizing antibodies with Omicron pVNT (area under the ROC: 0.82 for both assays). In addition, new adapted cut-off values of anti-RBD IgG (>1,276 BAU/mL) and Omicron sVNT (POI>46.6%) were found to be better predictors of neutralizing activity.

Conclusions
This study showed a significant drop in humoral immunity 6 months after booster administration. Anti-RBD IgG and Omicron sVNT assays were highly correlated and could predict neutralizing activity with moderate performance.
Synergistic improvement to dimensional stability of Populus cathay
ana via hemicellulose removal/alkali lignin impregnation
Authors: Yang Meng , Zhang Runhua , Ma Erni 
Published: April 2023

Abstract
Poor dimensional stability restricts the commercial utilization of fast-growing wood. In this study, fast-growing poplar (Populus cathayana) was treated by removing hemicellulose with hydrothermal treatment and impregnating alkali lignin via full-cell process, synergistically, for enhanced dimensional stability. After modification, hydroxyl groups were reduced in hemicellulose removed wood (DHC), alkali lignin was observed to fill in the cell lumens of vessels and wood fibers in the impregnated wood (AL) and in the wood modified by hemicellulose removal with alkali lignin impregnation (DHCAL). Compared with untreated wood, the volumetric swelling ratio of DHC and AL decreased by 11 % and 21 % under relative humidity (RH) of 89 %, respectively. The volumetric swelling ratio of DHCAL decreased by over 50 %, indicating a positive synergistic effect. The combination of hemicellulose removal and alkali lignin impregnation treatment improved the dimensional stability of wood significantly by reconstructing wood chemical components with various levels of hygroscopicity. This work could meaningfully contribute to the efficient utilization of fast-growing wood and promote the added value of industrial alkali lignin.
Coexistence of quantum key distribution and optical communication with amplifiers over multicore fiber

Published: April 2023

Abstract
In this paper, the influence of classical signals on quantum key distribution (QKD) is studied over multi-core fiber (MCF) when optical amplifiers exist. Firstly, the long-distance simultaneous transmission architectures of QKD and classical signals are proposed based on advanced asymmetric sending or not sending QKD (SNS-QKD) and classical Bennett–Brassard 1984-QKD (BB84-QKD), and the segment length between optical amplifiers can be adjusted according to requirement. Then, theoretical models of spontaneous Raman scattering noise and four-wave mixing noise are established based on the proposed architectures. Next, the calculation models of the secure key rate under the influence of noises from classical signals are derived. Finally, the experimental results show that the theoretical models match well with the experimental photons, and the maximum difference between experimental and simulated noise photons is less than 2.6 dB. Simulation results show that the performance of asymmetric SNS-QKD is better than that of BB84-QKD architecture when classical signals and quantum signals are transmitted in different cores of MCF.

Abstract
When assembled in periodic arrangements, metallic nanostructures (NSs) support plasmonic surface lattice (SL) resonances resulting from long-range interactions these surface lattice resonances differ radically from localized surface plasmon (LSP). Similarly to the hybridization of LSP resonances, observed in short-range interactions, we demonstrate the possibility to generate a hybridization of surface lattice (SL) plasmon resonances, by the excitation of grazing order diffraction within the metasurface. This hybridization leads to the emergence of bonding and anti-bonding modes. If hybridization of LSP modes has been widely described in recent literature, there is still no experimental proof-of-concept reporting such hybridization with SL plasmon resonances. We fill this gap in the present paper by considering surfaces made of binary arrays with unit cells made of two gold disks of distinct diameters. We demonstrate the possibility to maximize or cancel the interaction between the hybridized SL resonances by simply controlling the distance between particles. All our experimental results are supported by FDTD calculations. The hybridization of SL modes results in much richer hybridization scenario in terms of wavelength and quality factor control, compared to a hybridization of LSP in a short-range configuration. It offers unprecedented opportunities to generate innovative optical devices, with high flexible tunability.
Impact of Addition of Fly Ash (as Sand Replacement) and Polypropylene Fibers on Energy Absorption Characteristics of Foam Concrete

Published: April 2023

Abstract
Foam concrete has recently piqued the interest of defense engineering because of its innovative properties of absorbing energy, softening impact, exhausting oscillation, and lowering stress amplitude behavior. However, only a few investigations on foam concrete’s mechanistic behavior and energy absorption properties have been published. This study examines the effects of adding fly ash (sand replacement) and polypropylene fibers to foam concrete with design densities of 1,000 and 1,500 kg/m3 on fresh state features (stability and consistency), mechanical properties, and energy absorption capacities. The consistency of foam concrete increases with the addition of foam and fly ash, but the inclusion of fibers has a significant impact. Though the addition of fibers reduced the compressive strength of foam concrete, the bonding of fibers with the matrix is strengthened in fly ash–based mixes, resulting in increased strength, showing the synergistic effect. An improvised low-velocity drop-weight impact test is carried out on foam concrete target slabs produced with various mix compositions to investigate the impact mitigation properties of foam concrete under impact loading. The energy absorption capacity of different mixtures of foam concrete specimens is found to vary between 0.3 and 1.18 J using the conservation of energy law and assuming no energy losses. Because of the availability of sufficient bubble space for crushed debris and the better impact resistance provided by the fibers, mixes with more air and fibers displayed relatively more energy absorption. To examine the mixes based on the local area effect of impact loading, observations on both energy absorption and failure mechanism are carried out.
Glutamate dehydrogenase1 supports HIF‐1α stability to promote colorectal tumorigenesis under hypoxia

Published: April 2023

AbstractTumor cells surviving hypoxic stress acquire the ability to drive cancer progression. To explore the contribution of dehydrogenases to the low oxygen concentration response, we used siRNAs targeting 163 dehydrogenase‐coding genes and discovered that glutamate dehydrogenase 1 (GDH1) plays a critical role in regulating colorectal cancer (CRC) cell survival under hypoxia. We observed that GDH1 deficiency had an inhibitory effect on CRC occurrence and impaired hypoxia‐inducible factor 1‐alpha (HIF‐1α) stability even under hypoxia. Mechanistically, hypoxia triggered p300 recruitment to GDH1, promoting its acetylation at K503 and K527. GDH1 acetylation at K527 induced the formation of a GDH1 complex with EGLN1/HIF‐1α; in contrast, GDH1 acetylation at K503 reinforced its affinity for α‐ketoglutarate (αKG), and glutamate production. In line with this view, αKG is a product of GDH1 under normoxia, but hypoxia stimulation reversed GDH1 enzyme activity and αKG consumption by the EGLN1/HIF‐1α complex, increasing HIF‐1α stability and promoting CRC progression. Clinically, hypoxia‐modulated GDH1 AcK503/527 can be used as a biomarker of CRC progression and is a potential target for CRC treatment.
La respuesta del sistema de salud colombiano en tiempos de pandemia: Una evaluación rápida desde los indicadores epidemiológicos
Authors: De la Hoz Restrepo Fernando 
Published: April 2023

Este artículo describe algunas de las acciones que tomó el sistema de salud de Colombia con el fin de mejorar la capacidad de respuesta a la pandemia de COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) y corregir algunas de las fallas estructurales que amenazaban la efectividad de respuesta. También se presenta la evolución de algunos marcadores epidemiológicos del impacto de la pandemia, entre marzo de 2020 y septiembre de 2021, los cuales pueden ayudar a entender si las medidas tomadas pudieron mitigar o no el impacto de la pandemia.
Entre las acciones que más podrían influir sobre los desenlaces epidemiológicos (casos y muertes) de la pandemia, podemos destacar el aumento del número de camas de la Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos (de 5 000 a 11 000, aproximadamente) y las gestiones realizadas para adquirir vacunas en un mercado internacional fuertemente competido y que prefería proveer vacunas a los países industrializados primero que a los menos desarrollados.
Pese a esos esfuerzos, las draconianas medidas de aislamiento y la suspensión de muchas actividades económicas, durante el periodo de estudio, Colombia fue uno de los 15 países con mayor mortalidad en el mundo y más de 60% de la población se infectó después de la primera onda pandémica. Lo anterior sugiere una baja efectividad de los esfuerzos realizados para fortalecer el sistema de salud.
