Authors: Lau Chloe , Chiesi Francesca , Saklofske Donald H. 
Published: May 2022

The State-Trait Cheerfulness Inventory (STCI) assesses latent traits and states of cheerfulness, seriousness, and bad mood to represent the temperamental basis of humor. The present study (1) tested the generalizability of the three-factor model in both state and trait versions of the STCI across European Canadian (N = 489) and first generation Chinese Canadian (N = 147) participants completing the English version of the STCI and (2) compared latent mean differences. Results indicated the confirmatory factor analyses of the three-factor model for European White participants born in Canada and Chinese participants born in China showed adequate fit for both trait and state measures. Furthermore, substantial equivalence of factor model parameters and partial scalar invariance were found for both the state and trait STCI measures. In examining latent mean differences, European White Canadian participants reported significantly higher trait cheerfulness, z = 3.30, p < .001, d = 0.84, and lower trait bad mood z = 3.25, p < .01, d = 0.80 compared to the Chinese Canadian groups. European White Canadian participants reported significantly lower state bad mood, z = 3.59, p < .001, d = 1.15, compared to the Chinese Canadian groups. Limitations and future directions based on study findings are discussed.
Quality assessment of a serum and xenofree medium for the expansion of human GMP-grade mesenchymal stromal cells
Authors: Aussel Clotilde , Busson Elodie , Vantomme Helene , Peltzer Juliette , Martinaud Christophe 
Published: May 2022

Background
Cell-based therapies are emerging as a viable modality to treat challenging diseases, resulting in an increasing demand for their large-scale, high-quality production. Production facilities face the issue of batch-to-batch consistency while producing a safe and efficient cell-based product. Controlling culture conditions and particularly media composition is a key factor of success in this challenge. Serum and Xeno-Free Media (SXFM) represent an interesting option to achieve this goal. By reducing batch to batch variability, they increase Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP)-compliance and safety regarding xenogenic transmission, as compared to fetal bovine serum (FBS) supplemented-media or human platelet lysate supplemented medium.

Methods
In this study, the isolation, expansion and characteristics including the anti-inflammatory function of human mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) are compared after culture in MEMα supplemented with human Concentrate Platelet Lysate (hCPL, reference medium) or in MSC-Brew GMP Medium. The latter is a GMP SXFM manufactured in bags under strictly controlled conditions in volumes suitable for expansion to a clinical scale and does not require neither pre-coating of the cell culture units nor the addition of blood derivatives at the isolation step.

Results
We showed that MSC derived from human bone-marrow and adipose tissue can be successfully isolated and expanded in this SXFM. Number and size of Colony-Forming Unit fibroblast (CFU-F) is increased compared to cells cultivated in hCPL medium. All cells retained a CD90+, CD73+, CD105+, HLADR−, CD34−, CD45− phenotype. Furthermore, the osteogenic and adipocyte potentials as well as the anti-inflammatory activity were comparable between culture conditions. All cells reached the release criteria established in our production facility to treat inflammatory pathologies.

Conclusions
The use of MSC-Brew GMP Medium can therefore be considered for clinical bioprocesses as a safe and efficient substitute for hCPL media.
Adolescent and Youth Sexual and Reproductive Health in Sri Lanka: Are Policies and Strategies Geared to Address Issues?
Authors: Kumarasinghe M. , Silva W. I. De 
Published: May 2022

Aims: Adolescents and youth belong to high-risk groups for sexual and reproductive issues. The aim of this investigation is to critically evaluate whether the sexual and productive health issues are addressed in adolescent and youth policies and strategies in Sri Lanka.
Study Design: Two distinct methods were used. Desk review to assess the coverage of sexual and reproductive health (SRH) issues addressed in adolescent and youth policies and strategies in Sri Lanka was followed by 3 focus group discussions (FGDs) with youths and 8 key informant interviews (KII) on SRH policy issues related to sexual and reproductive health of youth.
Place and Duration of Study: Both methods were conducted between June 2021 to December 2021. Youth were selected from District of Colombo for FGDs. KIIs were conducted with youth SRH experts in government, private, universities and non-governmental organizations.
Methodology: Triangulation of data from FGDs, KIIs and desk review was conducted. Thematic content and narrative methods were used for analysis of data.
Results: Adequacy of SRH coverage, issues and challenges was summarized using key six domains of SRH as mentioned by World Health Organization, namely overall focus on SRH, comprehensive SRH education, contraception counselling & provision, safe abortion care, sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and HIV prevention care, and violence against women and girls- prevention, support and care. All key stakeholders in education and health sector unanimously agreed that comprehensive sexual education should be implemented in the country. However, there is general disagreement on the grade (or age) of inclusion of contraception of CSE; Level of skills and competencies of the teachers assigned to teach SRH and; Learning aids for students on SRH. The only policy/ strategic plan which covers the SRH aspects of youth adequately was the National Strategic Plan- Adolescent and Youth Health (2018-2025) by the Family Health Bureau. Similarly, lack of priority for SRH aspects of youth was evident in youth policies and strategic plans formulated by non-health governmental organizations.
Conclusion: Overall findings highlight the non-priority for SRH aspects in youth policies and strategic plans in Sri Lanka. Coordinated effort of all key stakeholders is needed to improve the SRH representation in youth policies and strategies in Sri Lanka.

Large-scale rescue excavation beyond the guardianship area around the Roman fort on the Antonine Wall at Croy Hill (NGR: NS 7335 7652) was undertaken over four summers (1975–8), funded by a predecessor to Historic Environment Scotland. The aims of the excavation were to identify any potential civil settlement associated with the fort and to confirm the character and date of a pre-fort enclosure identified by Sir George Macdonald in the 1930s.
The latter proved to be a camp associated with the building of the Antonine Wall, not an earlier Flavian fort as previously postulated. A civil settlement was shown to lie within the guardianship area on a plateau immediately to the west of the fort, though only one timber structure extended into the excavated area. However, a curvilinear trackway wound its way down the hill from the settlement towards a southern road that bypassed the fort. The trackway was defined by substantial ditches that contained a large quantity and wide variety of artefactual material washed down from the settlement, predominantly after its abandonment. The bypass road, which showed signs of at least two phases of construction, was traced for a distance of some 275m. The area on either side of it to the east of the fort was divided up by a system of fence lines and ditches into fields or compounds, one of which contained a pottery kiln, another a cremation burial.
Field observation during the excavation led to the suggestion that a fortlet lay some 80m west of the fort. This was confirmed by limited excavation within the guardianship area. The construction of the fortlet was shown to have been contemporary with the Antonine Wall.

Published: May 2022

Finalmente cheguei no final de fevereiro deste ano em Los Angeles, para atuar como Pesquisadora Visitante no Instituto Latino Americano (LAI) da Universidade da California (UCLA). Quinze dias depois, por conta do COVID 19, estavamos em casa (eu, esposo também pesquisador visitante na UCLA e dois filhos, um de 7 e outro de 4 anos), devido a recomendação de stay at home. Assim como toda moeda sempre tem dois lados (ouvimos muito isto por aqui) a minha realidade também tinha. O lado ruim de estar em casa era a ausência do convívio com os colegas do LAI e da presença fisica e cotidiana no Campus da UCLA. O lado bom passou a ser a entrada do meu objeto de pesquisa, literalmente, dentro da minha casa. As aulas dos meus filhos, as reuniões de pais promovida pela escola, as conferências da UCLA, as reuniões da UFBA e todos os outros eventos acadêmicos passaram a ser realizados através da Internet e então pude observar variadas práticas diretamente ou indiretamente associadas ao processo de ensinoaprendizagem (aqui escrito junto para reforçar a relação inseparável entre esssas duas ações) ocorrendo em ambiente online.

AbstractPurposeTo assess differences between frame‐based and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT)‐defined stereotactic space and to identify predictors of the observed findings.Methods and materialsDifferences between frame‐based and CBCT‐defined stereotactic space after image co‐registration were reviewed for 529 patients. Treatment planning system reported the information about the shifts in X, Y, and Z coordinates of the center of the stereotactic space (i.e., coordinate X = 100 mm, Y = 100 mm, and Z = 100 mm) defined by the frame, and the maximum shot displacement (MSD) in mm. We collected the potential predictors of the differences. In total, 19 factors were investigated. We used multiple linear regression to evaluate associations with the increased differences.ResultsRotational and translational shifts greater than 1° and 1 mm, respectively, were observed in 2.6% of patients. At the same time, a decrease in tumor coverage of more than 5% was detected in 8.3% of cases. It was revealed that the higher fiducial errors (both mean and maximum), the greater weight of the patient, and the lower Karnofsky Performance Scale were predictors of increased rotational, translational shifts, and the MSD.

AbstractPurposeTo quantify the influence of beam optics asymmetric distribution on dose.MethodsNine reference cubic targets and corresponding plans with modulation widths (M) of 3, 6, and 9 cm and with center depths (CDs) of 6, 12, and 24 cm were generated by the treatment planning system (TPS). The Monte Carlo code FLUKA was used for simulating the dose distribution from the aforementioned original plans and the dose perturbation by varying ±5%, ±15%, ±20%, ±25%, and ±40% in spot full width half maximum to the X‐direction while keeping consistent in the Y‐direction. The dosimetric comparisons in dose deviation, γ‐index analysis, lateral penumbra, and flatness were evaluated.ResultsThe largest 3D absolute mean deviation was 15.0% ± 20.9% (mean ± standard deviation) in M3CD6, whereas with the variation from −15% to +20%, the values were below 5% for all cube plans. The lowest 2D γ‐index passing rate was 80.6% with criteria of 2%–2 mm by a +40% variation in M3CD6. For the M9CD24 with a −40% variation, the maximum 1D dose deviations were 5.6% and 15.7% in the high‐dose region and the edge of the radiation field, respectively. The maximum deviations of penumbra and flatness were 3.4 mm and 11.4%, respectively.ConclusionsThe scenario of beam optics asymmetric showed relatively slight influence on the global dose distribution but severely affected dose on the edge of the radiation field. For scanning carbon‐ion therapy facilities, beam spot lateral profile settings in TPS base data should be properly handled when beam optics asymmetry variation is over 15%.

Published: May 2022

AbstractCharge transport is a key process that dominates battery performance, and the microstructures of the cathode, anode, and electrolyte play a central role in guiding ion and/or electron transport inside the battery. Rational design of key battery components with varying microstructure along the charge‐transport direction to realize optimal local charge‐transport dynamics can compensate for reaction polarization, which accelerates electrochemical reaction kinetics. Here, the principles of charge‐transport mechanisms and their decisive role in battery performance are presented, followed by a discussion of the correlation between charge‐transport regulation and battery microstructure design. The design strategies of the gradient cathodes, lithium‐metal anodes, and solid‐state electrolytes are summarized. Future directions and perspectives of gradient design are provided at the end to enable practically accessible high‐energy and high‐power‐density batteries.

AbstractFiguring out the inner mechanism of lattice distortion and unstable factors of inorganic perovskite nanocrystals in solvents is essential for fundamental studies and applications in photonic devices. Traditional research results simply ascribed the unstable factor to solvent polarity, which in fact are insufficient and inaccurate to explain some phenomena. Here, we propose a molecular level mechanism that the crucial cause for the instability of perovskite nanocrystals in solutions is the competition between complex bond energies in colloidal nanocrystals system. In combination with molecular dynamics simulations and first principle calculations, the kinetic process of lattice distortion and self‐assembly of perovskite nanocrystals is revealed in solutions. By tailoring the relative magnitude of the hydrogen bond energy between ligand ammonium ion and halogen, the van der Waals force between the ligands of adjacent nanocrystals and the bond energy between lead atom and halogen, nanocrystal arrays and single‐crystalline nanowires based on all‐inorganic perovskite nanocrystals can be freely obtained. Moreover, the polarization properties of the obtained nanowires are studied, which are related to their formation process.
Chiral Nanostructured Bimetallic Au–Ag Films for Enantiomeric Discrimination

Published: May 2022

AbstractHerein, the chiral nanostructured bimetallic Au–Ag films (CNAAFs) with both photomagnetic‐chiral anisotropy to enantiomers (PM‐ChAC‐E) and surface‐enhanced Raman scattering‐chiral anisotropy to enantiomers (SERS‐ChAC‐E) for efficient enantiomeric discrimination are reported. The CNAAFs are synthesized by electrodeposition on n‐type Si (n‐Si) substrates with the assistance of N‐acetyl‐L/D‐cysteine (S/R‐NAC) as symmetry‐breaking agents, which are consisted of polycrystalline Boerdijk–Coxeter–Bernal (BCB) tetrahelical structured Au–Ag alloy nanowires grown on n‐Si substrates perpendicularly. The anisotropic factors of PM‐ChAC‐E (gPM‐ChA) and SERS‐ChAC‐E (gSERS‐ChA) of CNAAFs in the range of 0.68–1.12 and 1.45–1.89 are obtained, respectively. Considering the increase of magnetic fields and SERS intensities with enantiomeric excess (ee) values of adsorbed enantiomers on the CNAAFs are higher than that of pure chiral nanostructure Au films, the enhancement of PM‐ChAC‐E and SERS‐ChAC‐E effects of CNAAFs can be attributed to the enhanced selective spin polarization coupling between CNAAFs and enantiomers. It is predicted to be due to the strong surface plasmon resonance generated by the active electrons of Ag under laser irradiation.
Study of Photocarriers Lifetime Distribution in a‐Si:H via Magneto‐photoconductivity and Magneto‐Photoluminescence
Authors: McLaughlin Ryan , Pan Xin , Sun Dali , Kwon Ohyun , Vardeny Zeev Valy 
Published: May 2022

AbstractHerein, the magneto‐photoluminescence (MPL) of localized photocarriers and magneto‐photoconductivity (MPC) of delocalized photocarriers in amorphous hydrogenated silicon (a‐Si:H) films and devices, respectively, are investigated. Both responses are caused by mixing of spin sublevels in the photogenerated electron–hole (e–h) pairs that alters their recombination and dissociation rates. The spin mixing occurs by a combination of hyperfine interaction (HFI) between spin ½ photocarriers and neighboring 29Si and 1H nuclei, and the Δg mechanism which originates from a difference in the Landé g‐factors of electrons and holes. The existing disorder in a‐Si:H films leads to dispersive field response that is described by a unique dispersive parameter α < 1, from which the e–h lifetime distribution, g(τ) is obtained. The mean e–h lifetime is found to be ≈12 ns for the high‐energy, relatively delocalized photocarriers generating the photocurrent, as compared to ≈200 ps for the lower energy, trapped e–h pairs which yield photoluminescence. The MPL(B) and MPC(B) responses in a‐Si:H subjected to prolonged illumination that causes Staebler–Wronski type degradation, and subsequent annealing are studied. The illumination‐induced photocarrier localization that enhances the HFI component is found, which dramatically decreases upon annealing; this method can assess optoelectronic device degradation.
Nonlinear Strong Coupling by Second‐Harmonic Generation Enhancement in Plasmonic Nanopatch Antennas

Published: May 2022

AbstractEnhanced electromagnetic fields within plasmonic nanocavity mode volumes enable multiple significant effects that lead to applications in both the linear and nonlinear optical regimes. In this work, enhanced second‐harmonic generation (SHG) is demonstrated from individual plasmonic nanopatch antennas (NPAs) which are formed by separating silver nanocubes from a smooth gold film using a sub‐10 nm zinc oxide spacer layer. When the NPAs are excited at their fundamental plasmon frequency, a 104‐fold increase in the intensity of the SHG wave is observed. Moreover, by integrating quantum emitters that have an absorption energy at the fundamental frequency, a second‐order nonlinear exciton–polariton strong coupling response is observed with a Rabi splitting energy of 19 meV. The nonlinear frequency conversion using NPAs thus provides an excellent platform for nonlinear control of the light−matter interactions in both weak and strong coupling regimes which will have a great potential for applications in optical engineering and information processing.
