Authors: Pius Saronga Happiness 
Published: April 2022

Aims: This study explored socio-economic characteristics, sexual and health behaviour of women who have sex with women (WSW) in Tanzania. The study was conducted to increase public and policy-makers awareness about WSW characteristics, findings may be useful in planning essential public health interventions targeting the WSW.
Methodology: We involved WSW and community leaders in this study. We used a cross-sectional descriptive formative design and conducted the study in Ilala, Kinondoni and Temeke districts in Dar-es-Salaam Region in Tanzania. We performed data collection through focus group discussion (FGD), in-depth interviews (IDIs), key informant interviews (KIIs) and life stories. We applied inductive thematic analysis where open coding approach was adopted using participants’ language. We employed grounded theory approach in the analysis.
Results: WSW in Tanzania belong to various sexual groups including lesbian, transgender, tomboy and bisexual. Although sex between women is practiced by women of all ages, it is most common among young women. It is practiced by married women and women with children and commonly starts during Secondary School. WSW are of varying socio-economic status (education and income) with some WSW facing poorer socio-economic status due to rejection, stigma and discrimination propagated by family and the wider community. WSW engage in risky behaviours, sexual and other health-related behaviours such as promiscuity, transactional sex, alcoholism, smoking, and drug abuse.
Conclusion: WSW are of varying socio-economic characteristics, sexual and health behaviours. This may mean unique public health needs for different WSW and thus calling for tailored health education, health promotion, as well as socio-economic interventions to improve health-related behaviours, for better health outcomes of the WSW.

AbstractBackgroundData on the burden of stroke and changing trends at national and subnational levels are necessary for policymakers to allocate recourses appropriately. This study presents estimates of the stroke burden from 1990 to 2019 using the results of the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2019 study.MethodsFor the GBD 2019, verbal autopsy and vital registration data were used to estimate stroke mortality. Cause‐specific mortality served as the basis for estimating incidence, prevalence, and disability‐adjusted life years (DALYs). The burden attributable to stroke risk factors was calculated by a comparative risk assessment. Decomposition analysis was applied to determine the contribution of population aging, population growth, and changes in the age‐specific incidence rates.ResultsIn 2019, the number of prevalent cases, incident cases, and deaths due to stroke in Iran were 963,512; 102,778; and 40,912, respectively. The age‐standardized incidence rate (ASIR) and the age‐standardized death rate (ASDR) decreased from 1990 to 2019. Of national stroke ASDRs in 2019, 44.7% (35.7–54.7%) were attributable to hypertension and 28.8% (15.2–57.4) to high fasting plasma glucose. At the subnational level, the trend of the stroke incidence and mortality rate decreased in all provinces. Stroke was responsible for 4.48% of total DALYs in 2019 (3.38% due to ischemic stroke, 0.87% due to intracerebral hemorrhage, and 0.22% due to subarachnoid hemorrhage).ConclusionASIR and ASDR of stroke are decreasing nationally and subnationally; however, the number of incident cases and deaths are increasing in all SDI quintiles, possibly due to population growth.

Published: April 2022

AbstractThe goal of this study is to test the effect of a growth mindset (GM) intervention with an added implementation intentions (II) protocol on French first‐year university students' mindset, creating a new type of psychosocial intervention (GMII). We exposed participants to 3 intervention conditions (GMII vs. GM vs. control), measured mindset via self‐reported measures during 3 stages (online questionnaire 2 weeks before the intervention; experimental session with exposure to the intervention; online questionnaire 2 weeks after the intervention), and assessed scholastic performance by testing participants on a subject they had to learn during the experimental session. We found a positive effect of the GMII on participants' mindset (fostering a GM) compared to the other conditions. However, we did not find any link between GM and learning performance. Implications are discussed in light of recent literature and critics on mindset theory and interventions.

Published: April 2022

AbstractTransition metal sulfides (TMSs) have been widely used as photocatalytic materials in view of the merits of broadband light harvesting and low work function. However, the photocorrosion generally leads to the unstable photoactivity. Antimony sulfide (Sb2S3) is a TMS semiconductor with prominent structural stability due to its large‐size microstructure. However, the slow body‐to‐surface carriers’ migration dramatically hinders its application in photocatalysis field. Herein, to gain a stable TMS‐based photocatalyst with high photoactivity for hydrogen production, the ultrafine MoS2 served as cocatalyst is grown in situ on the surface of Sb2S3 nanorods to form a type‐II heterostructured catalyst via a green hydrothermal procedure. In view of the narrow bandgap feature of both materials, the as‐prepared heterostructured catalyst possesses prominent broadband‐light harvesting. Owing to the synergistic promotion of built‐in electric field, the photocarriers’ migration in depletion region is significantly speeded up so that their recombination is effectively hindered, thereby this novel catalyst possesses 34.9‐fold and 11.7‐fold higher hydrogen evolution reaction photoactivity than that of bare Sb2S3 and MoS2 under simulated sunlight irradiation. On account of the formation of Mo (MoS2)‐S (Sb2S3) and Sb (Sb2S3)‐S (MoS2) coordination interactions in heterointerface, highly enhanced photostability is presented even being handled during long‐term irradiation. This study provides an insight for gaining a stable TMS‐based photocatalyst with high‐performance.

Published: April 2022

AbstractPolymers are at the core of emerging flexible sensor and soft actuator technology. Ideal candidates not only respond to external stimuli but also have programmable response intensity and speed. Incorporating dynamic interactions into polymers has been widely studied. However, most research has focused on synthesis methods and on optical and mechanical effects of these interactions. Here, a new and tunable method of enabling environmentally adaptive polymers are introduced. Specifically, polar functionalities are “hidden” within polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). When unveiled, these polar functionalities change the hydrophilicity of the polymer. Water is the stimulus that triggers the exposure of polar functionalities by disrupting interfacial equilibrium and driving surface reconstruction. This reversible adaptation is governed by the dynamics of a metal–ligand coordinated polymer, and therefore can be easily tailored by the choice of network structure, metal cations, and counter anions. PDMS is a particularly exciting polymer for this functionality because of the negative consequences of its intrinsically high hydrophobicity in many applications. However, this design concept is applicable to a wide range of polymers and can be expanded to other dynamic interactions such as reversible covalent bonding, hydrogen bonding, and ionic bonding, to empower programmable responsive functionality and therefore enhance material performance.

Published: April 2022

AbstractThe performance of a film‐based fluorescent sensor is highly dependent on the innovative design of the sensing films aiming to elevate usability of sensing units, and enhance mass transfer of analytes within the fluorescent adlayer. Herein, a highly porous and uniform fluorescent nanofilm which is fabricated through an interfacially confined dynamic‐covalent reaction between benzene‐1,3,5‐tricarbo‐hydrazide and a mono‐boron complex of 8‐hydroxy‐quinoline is reported. Remarkably, the thicknesses of the nanofilms prepared in this way can be modulated from tens to hundreds of nanometers. In addition, the nanofilms demonstrate much improved photochemical stability. Sensing performance studies reveal that the nanofilm is super‐sensitive and selective to the presence of amines, especially methylamine (MA) in vapor phase. Specifically, the detection limit to MA is lower than 2.82 mg m−3, and the presence of the vapors of water, aromatic hydrocarbons, aliphatic hydrocarbons, alcohols, ketones, and other common organic compounds showed little effect upon the sensing. Moreover, the sensing is highly reversible. With the innovation in adlayer structure, substrate effect as commonly found in routine film‐based sensing is avoided, which must bring convenience for device making. In this work, different film‐based sensors are fabricated, suggesting their potential applications in various scenarios.

Published: April 2022

AbstractTo improve room‐temperature phosphorescence (RTP) property, thianthrene (TA) is chemically modified into three intramolecular dimers (1TA1TA, 1TA2TA, and 2TA2TA) at different active sites. They all show dual‐emission of fluorescence and RTP after deoxygenation when they are dispersed in polymer matrix to form films. As for the RTP emission among their films, 2TA2TA shows the largest red shift peaking at 540 nm, the longest lifetime of 36.5 ms, and the highest RTP efficiency of 40.7%. These RTP characteristics enable 2TA2TA to act as a self‐referenced ratiometric and colorimetric probe for oxygen sensing and detection at low concentration. As a result, 2TA2TA exhibits the highest quenching efficiency of 98.4% and highest sensitivity (KSV = 13.32 KPa−1) for quantitative oxygen detection. Besides, these oxygen‐sensitive materials can also be used to study aerodynamics through a direct and visual observation of emission intensity/color distribution. Overall, the new‐generation optical probe will be developed in oxygen sensing and detection with high sensitivity, good reversibility, and reproducibility by using the pure organic materials with single‐molecule dual‐emission of fluorescence and RTP through the dispersion of the materials in polymeric host.

Published: April 2022

AbstractEllis–van Creveld syndrome (EvC) is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder involving pathogenic variants of EVC and EVC2 genes and classified as a ciliopathy. The syndrome is caused by mutations in the EVC gene on chromosome 4p16, and EVC2 gene, located close to the EVC gene, in a head‐to‐head configuration. Regardless of the affliction of EVC or EVC2, the clinical features of Ellis–van Creveld syndrome are similar. Both these genes are expressed in tissues such as, but not limited to, the heart, liver, skeletal muscle, and placenta, while the predominant expression in the craniofacial tissues is that of EVC2. Biallelic mutations of EVC and EVC2 affect Hedgehog signaling and thereby ciliary function, crucial factors in vertebrate development, culminating in the phenotypical features characteristic of EvC. The clinical features of Ellis–van Creveld syndrome are consistent with significant abnormalities in morphogenesis and differentiation of the affected tissues. The robust role of primary cilia in histodifferentiation and morphodifferentiation of oral, perioral, and craniofacial tissues is becoming more evident in the most recent literature. In this review, we give a summary of the mechanistic role of primary cilia in craniofacial development, taking Ellis–van Creveld syndrome as a representative example.

Published: April 2022

AbstractVirtual laboratories have started to be the leading alternative teaching tools during the Covid‐19 pandemic process. The “Acid–Base” subject is among those that form the foundations of biochemistry. Students can learn the “Acid–Base” subject in a secure environment, with remote access through the use of virtual laboratory simulations. Simulation was applied to fourth‐year undergraduate students in Turkey who want to obtain a bachelor's degree in science teaching during the present study. During the application process, the students conducted different experiments on the concepts of strong acid, strong base and pH, which are the basic concepts of biochemistry. In addition, student opinions regarding the application were also obtained. It was thus determined that the majority of the students were able to write hypotheses, test their accuracy and report the test findings correctly; a small number of students started to apply the simulations after examining them in accordance with scientific terminology. At the end of the application, the students also stated that they had fun during the application which also provided effective learning. It is recommended that classroom activity which is integrated with simulation be used in Chemistry, Biochemistry and Science Laboratory Applications courses.

Published: April 2022

AbstractMicrobial fuel cells (MFCs) are among the newest bioelectrical devices that have attracted significant attention because they convert biodegradable organic matter to electricity. MFC design can be improved by understanding and predicting the performance of MFC under different conditions and substrate concentrations. However, few mathematical models have been investigated due to problems caused by the high sensitivity of MFC systems. In this research, a multilayer neural network (NN) was used to predict the generated power of a cell with three inputs (concentration, time, and resistance). Response surface methodology with factors including the number of first layer neurons, number of second layer neurons, training epochs, validation check, and training percentage was used to obtain the optimum structure of the network, and mean squared error (MSE). NN had the minimum MSE when the Number of neurons in the first and second hidden layers, the training epochs, validation check, training percentage were 28, 20, 1000, 100, and 70, respectively. This built network had an excellent ability to predict, and was 98%. According to the results, increasing COD concentration increases generated power and system utilization time. In addition, reducing the external resistance up to 100 Ω can lead to more power obtained.

Published: April 2022

AbstractOxygen‐deficient CC−WO3−x nanoplates and hollow microspheres on carbon fabrics cloth were synthesized utilizing a simple solvent‐thermal route. The obtained CC−WO3−x possess an improved electronic conductivity because of the oxygen‐deficient effect and a higher specific surface area due to the unique nano‐structural features. The CC−WO3−x exhibits a high capacitance of 804 F g−1, excellent rate performance (>80 %) while the current density is enhanced five‐fold and superior cycling stability by retaining 109.5 % after 14000 cycles at 30 mV s−1. In addition, an asymmetric electrochemical capacitor (ASC) reveals a competitive energy storage performance (50.7 W h kg−1 at 1.3 KW kg−1). The reasons for its good electrochemical property are that the novel hybrid nanoplates and hollow microspheres structure with oxygen‐deficient and binder‐free, which is conducive to exposing more electroactive sites and enhancing electrical conductivity, therefore accelerating ion diffusion, facilitating charge transportation, and promoting the capacitive contribution for rapid charge‐discharge kinetics synchronously.The route is anticipated to reveal a new way to prepare hybrid nanostructure with oxygen‐deficient and binder‐free metal oxide‐based electrode material.
