Authors: Ling-Xin Li , Ke-Yao Huang , Rui Zhang , Zuo-Yan Liu , Li-Hui Pu 
Published: November 2022

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation for chronic low back pain.
Materials and methods: Eleven databases were searched from their inception through January 2021. The primary outcomes were pain intensity, individual activities, quality of life, and adverse events.
Results: Four randomized controlled trials (RCTs) with 184 patients (mean age: 37.8±3.1 years; range, 35 to 50 years) met the inclusion criteria. The pooled effect size showed proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation, relieved pain (standard means difference [SMD]: -0.835, 95% CI: -1.139 to -0.531, p<0.001, n=4), and improved individual activity (Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire, SMD: -1.765, 95% CI: -2.642 to -0.888, p<0.001, n=2; Oswestry Disability Index, SMD: -0.893, 95% CI: -1.434 to -0.352, p=0.001, n=1) for chronic low back pain (CLBP).
Conclusion: This study verified that proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation could relieve pain and improve individual activities without serious adverse events in patients with CLBP; however, it should be cautiously recommended due to the small number of included RCTs.

TO THE HISTORY OF DOMESTIC DENTISTRY: REFORM OF DENTAL ENGINEERING IN 1918-1921
Authors: Максимов Егор Сергеевич , Пашков Константин Анатольевич 
Published: November 2022

Реформа зуботехнического дела стала важным направлением деятельности, созданной при Народном комиссариате здравоохранения в 1918 году Зубоврачебной подсекции. Проводить реформу необходимо было в условиях военного коммунизма и Гражданской войны, отсутствия оборудования и материалов, нехватки профессиональных кадров (в дореволюционной России зубных техников готовили путем ученичества у наставников, а право на деятельность они получали в ремесленных управах). Основные усилия подсекции во главе с П.Г. Дауге были направлены на запрещение самостоятельной деятельности зубных техников, нередко занимавшихся протезированием зубов без участия зубных врачей ввиду нехватки последних; привлечение зубных техников к трудовой повинности и на государственную службу; организацию зуботехнического образования (от идеи создания учреждений образования при медицинских факультетах университетов пришлось отказаться, но зуботехнические школы были открыты); организацию бесплатной зуботехнической помощи (почти неосуществимую в те годы). Несмотря на сложности, все эти задачи Зубоврачебной подсекции удалось в той или иной степени решить в 1918-1921 годах. Статья написана на основе архивных источников, впервые вводимых в научный оборот.
The reform of dental engineering became an important line of work for the People’s Commissariat for Health created in 1918 by the Dentistry Sub - section. The reform had to be carried out under the conditions of military communism and the Civil War, lack of equipment and materials, shortage of professional staff (in pre - revolutionary Russia, dental technicians were trained through apprenticeship with mentors, and they received the right to work in crafts departments). The main efforts of the subsection headed by P.G. Dauge were aimed at prohibiting dental technicians from working independently, frequently arranging dental prosthetics without dentists due to the lack of the latter; engaging dental technicians in the civil service; organizing dental education (the idea of creating educational institutions within the medical departments of universities was abandoned, but dental schools were opened); organizing free dental technical aid (almost impossible to fulfill). In spite of all the difficulties, the Dentistry Sub - section succeeded in one way or another in solving these problems in 1918-1921. The article is written on the basis of archival sources, introduced into scientific circulation for the first time.

Effects of motor imagery training on skeletal muscle contractile properties in sports science students
Authors: Wieland Björn , Behringer Michael , Zentgraf Karen 
Published: November 2022

Background
Studies on motor imagery (MI) practice based on different designs and training protocols have reported changes in maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) strength. However, to date, there is a lack of information on the effects of MI training on contractile properties of the trained muscle.

Methods
Forty-five physically active sport science students (21 female) were investigated who trained three times per week over a 4-week period in one of three groups: An MI group conducted MI practice of maximal isometric contraction of the biceps brachii; a physical exercise (PE) group physically practiced maximal isometric contractions of the biceps brachii in a biceps curling machine; and a visual imagery (VI) group performed VI training of a landscape. A MVC test of the arm flexors was performed in a biceps curling machine before and after 4 weeks of training. The muscular properties of the biceps brachii were also tested with tensiomyography measurements (TMG).

Results
Results showed an interaction effect between time and group for MVC (p = 0.027, η2 = 0.17), with a higher MVC value in the PE group (Δ5.9%) compared to the VI group (Δ −1.3%) (p = 0.013). MVC did not change significantly in the MI group (Δ2.1%). Analysis of muscle contractility via TMG did not show any interaction effects neither for maximal radial displacement (p = 0.394, η2 = 0.05), delay time (p = 0.79, η2 = 0.01) nor contraction velocity (p = 0.71, η2 = 0.02).

Conclusion
In spite of MVC-related changes in the PE group due to the interventions, TMG measurements were not sensitive enough to detect concomitant neuronal changes related to contractile properties.
Method for evaluating the soundness of underground walls
Authors: Fujimori Takeshi , Fujii Satoru , Shoji Michito 
Published: November 2022

AbstractThe elastic wave caused by the input at the wallhead spreads throughout the plane of the wall, and thus, inspecting the soundness of underground walls using a pile integrity test (PIT) is a challenging task. This paper presents a feasible method for evaluating the soundness of underground walls via a PIT. In particular, by applying a low‐pass filter to the reflected wave recorded at the wall head, the wave components reflected from the wall ends and cracks are effectively separated from the components reflected from the wall sides. Hence, through the proposed strategy, the wave can be clearly identified for soundness evaluation.
Surface Space‐Charge Potential and Oxygen Surface Exchange Coefficient of SrTiO3: The Effect of Surface Orientation
Authors: Kler Joe , Börgers Jacqueline M. , De Souza Roger A. 
Published: November 2022

Abstract18O2/16O2 exchange experiments on terminated (100), (110), and (111) oriented samples of single‐crystal SrTiO3 are used to study the effect of surface orientation on the oxygen surface exchange coefficient and the surface space‐charge potential Φ0. Isotope exchanges are carried out at temperatures 922 < T/K < 1073 at an oxygen activity aO2 = 0.2 in dry conditions (aH2O < 10−7.7); isotope profiles are measured subsequently by secondary ion mass spectrometry. Isothermal values are found to vary by less than one order of magnitude, with . All data are consistent with a change in the activation enthalpy of surface exchange from 3.0 eV at high temperatures to 1.8 eV at lower temperatures. The transition is attributed to a change from a charge‐transfer mechanism at high temperatures to a mechanism involving surface OH species. The transition temperature depends on the surface orientation, Ttr(111) ≈ Ttr(110) > Ttr(100). Values of Φ0 obtained varied between 0.50 V and 0.37 V, with isothermal values obeying Φ0(111) ≈ Φ0(110) < Φ0(100). Φ0 data is analysed to obtain the OH− surface coverage for the low‐temperature regime. Similarities between the behavior of Φ0 and that of are highlighted.

AbstractThe main objective of this study is to prepare nanoparticles‐induced bio‐based polyurethane foam to shield electromagnetic interference (EMI) radiation in the 8–12 GHz frequency range and compare the experimental result with optimization and simulation. Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), magnesium oxide (MgO), and Nickel (Ni) nanoparticles were induced into bio‐based PU (polyurethane) foam through absorption and hydrothermal reduction technique, which includes mechanical stirring, compressing, heating and evaporating. The design of experiment (DOE) methodology was used to find nanoparticle weight percentage (wt%). EMI shielding effectiveness of the bio‐based PU foam composite was measured using Vector Network Analyzer (N5230A PNA‐L). The weight percentages of the optimized sample were predicted using the response surface methodology (RSM), in which the central composite design (CCD) employed the weight percentages of the three nanoparticles as input and the results of the electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness (EMI SE) experiment as the response output. The result from CCD showed that 3 wt% of PVDF, 10 wt% of MgO, and 1 wt% of Ni gave a maximum EMI SE of 27.78 dB. Then a confirmation sample was created for the same, and EMI SE was estimated empirically. The results obtained for the confirmation sample are 27.56 dB. Then, a scanning electron microscope image was taken for the confirmation sample to analyze nanoparticle‐induced bio‐based PU foam's structural properties. The SEM image with dxf format is imported into the radio frequency (RF) module to calculate the EMI SE through COMSOL Multiphysics. The simulated EMI SE for the confirmation sample was 25.1 dB.

AbstractIntroductionFeatures of underlying autonomic dysfunction, including sleep disturbances, gastrointestinal problems, and atypical heart rate, have been reported in neurodevelopmental conditions, including autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The current cross‐sectional, between‐groups study aimed to quantify symptoms of autonomic dysfunction in a neurodevelopmental pediatric cohort characterized by clinical diagnoses as well as genetic etiology.MethodThe Pediatric Autonomic Symptom Scales (PASS) questionnaire was used to assess autonomic features across a group of patients with clinical neurodevelopmental diagnoses (NPD; N = 90) and genetic etiologies. Patients were subdivided based on either having a clinical ASD diagnosis (NPD‐ASD; n = 37) or other non‐ASD neurodevelopmental diagnoses, such as intellectual disability without ASD, speech and language disorders, and/or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (NPD‐OTHER; n = 53). Analyses focused on characterizing differences between the NPD group compared to previously published reference samples, as well as differences between the two NPD subgroups (NPD‐ASD and NPD‐OTHER).ResultsOur results indicate higher PASS scores in our NPD cohort relative to children with and without ASD from a previously published cohort. However, we did not identify significant group differences between our NPD‐ASD and NPD‐OTHER subgroups. Furthermore, we find a significant relationship between quantitative ASD traits and symptoms of autonomic function.ConclusionThis work demonstrates the utility of capturing quantitative estimates of autonomic trait dimensions that may be significantly linked with psychosocial impairments and other core clinical features of ASD.

AbstractLevulinic acid, easily obtained from cellulose, represents a fundamental chemical platform for a number of valuable building blocks. Among them, diphenolic acid and its esters (DPA and DPE) are valid candidates to replace Bisphenol A in polycarbonate and epoxy resin production processes. In this study, we report a one‐pot synthesis of alkyl DPEs in the presence of a heterogenous acid catalyst starting from levulinic acid, an alcohol and phenol as solvent‐reagent. The most interesting member of the DPE family, the ethyl 4,4‐bis(4‐hydroxyphenyl)pentanoate, is selectively obtained in a good yield in the presence of a commercially available heterogeneous acid catalyst, the Aquivion, which can be reused for at least six times without any noticeable loss in activity.
