The flood control heritage of the Yongding River in the late Qing Dynasty surrounding the Marco Polo Bridge section, 1890–1899
Authors: Shi Yihong , Zhang Jianwei 
Published: June 2022

AbstractThis research comprehensively examined multiple sources of historical records and the built heritages of flood control construction along the Yongding River surrounding the Marco Polo Bridge section from 1890 to 1899, including stone levees, brick levees, cement dams, distributary channels, steel bridges, and temples dedicated to flood control. We mapped all these construction heritage features by time and geographical location according to historical documents to reveal the cause and intention behind each site. The following new insights were gained. First, the human–river relationship transitioned from utilization to resistance throughout the history of the Yongding River. Second, the philosophy of flood control represented a balance between symptom suppression and condition treatment at the peak of water management in imperial China. Third, the cultural and religious attitudes of humans in regard to flood control gradually shifted from a belief in the supernatural to faith in the ability of humans. Finally, modern technology, materials, and technicians were gradually imported, and water construction was implemented during the late Qing Dynasty, indicating modernization of the human–river relationship.
Calibration set optimization and library transfer for soil carbon estimation using soil spectroscopy—A review
Authors: Dorantes Minerva J. , Fuentes Bryan A. , Miller David M. 
Published: June 2022

AbstractResource‐efficient techniques for accurate soil property estimation are necessary to satisfy the increasing demand for soil data to support environmental monitoring, precision agriculture, and spatial modeling. Over the last 30 yr, infrared soil spectroscopy has developed into a rapid, robust, and cost‐effective technique for soil carbon analysis. Ongoing global efforts to make soil spectroscopy operational require the development of soil spectral libraries, which are the main source of data for the construction of calibration models. Understanding calibration optimization is important to ensure the efficient use of soil spectral libraries for the accurate estimation of soil carbon. Moreover, spectral library transfer can benefit new data collection, soil monitoring, and modeling efforts. This review presents techniques for optimization of calibration models and library transfer. Selection of calibration set size and subsetting are presented as current calibration optimization techniques. Moreover, spiking is discussed as an effective technique for spectral library transfer. Overall, studies have suggested that an increase in calibration size improves model performance and this continues until an optimal size is reached. Additionally, subsetting can improve model performance if the resulting subsets reduce the variability of spectrally active components. Studies have also suggested that spiking is effective when used in conjunction with subsetting techniques. These findings denote the current applicability and potential of optimization and library transfer techniques for the accurate estimation of soil carbon with soil spectroscopy. Future efforts should focus on refining optimization techniques to further expand the operability of soil spectroscopy for soil carbon estimation.

Published: June 2022

With the recent increase in OLED usage, the size and shape of devices are diversifying. In addition, portability is becoming more important along with product performance and improvement. In order to enhance portability, it is necessary to improve battery performance and increase the time available without charging. To this end, it is required to reduce display power consumption, and various methods and structures for reducing power consumption by improving the efficiency of many OLED products have been proposed.Most OLED displays have a polarizer film applied to secure black viewing in the off‐state. However, this reflectance‐reducing film has a transmittance 50% or less, thus the light extraction efficiency is very bad.This paper introduces a simulation‐based design methodology of a new display that is devoid of polarizer film. It required the task of obtaining high outdoor contrast by reducing reflectance of external light with improved light efficiency. By separating the panel structure and optimizing optical filters and OLED devices, reflection reduction, efficiency improvement, and viewing angle characteristics were secured at the same time.The simulation‐based optical design methodology is an important technology that can simultaneously optimize the optical characteristics of new type of display, and is expected to be applied to various product developments in the future.

Published: June 2022

AbstractFluorescence imaging with high sensitivity and minimal invasiveness has received tremendous attention, which can accomplish visualized monitoring and evaluation of cancer progression. Compared with the conventional first near‐infrared (NIR‐I) optical window (650–950 nm), fluorescence imaging in the second NIR optical window (NIR‐II, 950–1700 nm) exhibits deeper tissue penetration capability and higher temporal‐spatial resolution with lower background interference for achieving deep‐tissue in vivo imaging and real‐time monitoring of cancer development. Encouraged by the significant preponderances, a variety of multifunctional NIR‐II fluorophores have been designed and fabricated for sensitively imaging biomarkers in vivo and visualizing the treatment procedure of cancers. In this review, the differences between NIR‐I and NIR‐II fluorescence imaging are briefly introduced, especially the advantages of NIR‐II fluorescence imaging for the real‐time visualization of tumors in vivo and cancer diagnosis. An important focus is to summarize the NIR‐II fluorescence imaging for deep‐tissue biomarker analysis in vivo and tumor tissue visualization, and a brief introduction of NIR‐II fluorescence imaging‐guided cancer therapy is also presented. Finally, the significant challenges and reasonable prospects of NIR‐II fluorescence imaging for cancer diagnosis in clinical applications are outlined.

Published: June 2022

Abstractγ‐oryzanol is the most studied component in rice (Oryza sativa L.) bran oil. It is not only associated with physiological processes of rice growth and development but also grain quality that is related to human health. Previous studies focused mainly on γ‐oryzanol composition and content in various rice cultivars, while its biosynthetic and regulatory pathways remain unknown. Here we present the quantitative identification of γ‐oryzanol in rice seeds across 179 Asian cultivated accessions using ultra‐performance liquid chromatography–time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry (UPLC‐TOF/MS), which revealed a significant natural variation in γ‐oryzanol content among these tested rice accessions. In addition, we present, for the first time, the genome‐wide association study (GWAS) on rice seed γ‐oryzanol, which identified 187 GWAS signal hot spots and 13 candidate genes that are associated with variable γ‐oryzanol content and provided the top 10 rice haplotypes with high γ‐oryzanol content for breeding. Collectively, our study provides valuable germplasms for breeding rice cultivars rich in γ‐oryzanol and genetic resources for elucidating genetic and biochemical bases of variable γ‐oryzanol in rice.
Dementia patient and caregiver relevant outcomes currently being reported by adult day service centers in the United States

Published: June 2022

AbstractBackgroundApproximately one third of adults in adult day services (ADS) centers have Alzheimer's disease (AD) and AD‐related dementias (ADRD). Understanding of the impact and effectiveness of ADS on persons living with dementia (PLWD) is limited by a lack of patient and caregiver relevant outcomes (PCRO) data. We identified PCROs collected at ADS sites in states that mandate serial data collection and examined the degree to which these data align with established Dementia Care Practice Recommendations (DCPR) and PCROs used in other areas of long‐term care.MethodsWe conducted an item analysis of regulatory forms used by ADS. Consistent with the methodology used by the Imbedded Pragmatic AD/ADRD Clinical Trials (IMPACT) Collaboratory for PCROs collected in other long‐term care settings, we created a matrix informed by DCPR. We matched each item in regulatory forms reflecting a PCRO to one of the seven DCPR domains as well as to the 53 PCROs from other long‐term care sectors.ResultsTen states routinely collect outcome data in ADS. Among these, 80% assess cognitive function. All 10 states capture PLWD's ability to complete activities of daily living. Presence and frequency of behavioral symptoms were collected by 80% of states. Very few or, in some cases, none of the 10 states, collected PCROs related to care planning and coordination, education, social support, and/or family caregiver burden and support.DiscussionLack of standardized collection of PCROs hampers researchers’ understanding of ADS. The vast majority of PCROs collected center on participants’ physical health; conversely, data on socialization, social support, and caregiver well‐being, which are purportedly the most impactful services offered by ADS centers, are rarely collected. ADS would be well served to focus on these outcome domains as the resulting data could paint a more complete picture of the holistic impact of ADS on PLWD and their caregivers.
Monte Carlo modeling of gold nanoparticles detection limits of benchtop three‐dimensional L‐ and K‐shell X‐ray fluorescence mapping systems
Authors: Jung Seongmoon 
Published: June 2022

AbstractThis study aims to investigate the detection limits of gold nanoparticle (GNP) concentrations by Monte Carlo (MC) modeling of benchtop polychromatic K‐ and L‐shell X‐ray fluorescence mapping system. In Monte Carlo N‐Particle (MCNP version 6.1) simulations, a 0.25‐cm‐diameter cylinder containing GNPs of various concentrations (i.e., 0.005%–1.0% gold by weight, wt%) was assumed to be located at the center of a cylindrical water phantom of various diameters (1.0–10 cm). Two different sets of incident pencil beam X‐rays and detectors were modeled to stimulate X‐ray fluorescence (XRF) of GNPs: (1) 62 kVp and silicon drift detector for L‐XRF, (2) 105 kVp and cadmium telluride detector for K‐XRF. The detection limits were calculated for given radiation doses to the center of phantom (375–1500 mGy). When the diameter of the phantom was 1 cm, the detection limits for L‐XRF and K‐XRF were an order of 0.001 wt% and of 0.01 wt%, respectively. The detectability of K‐XRF turned out to be superior to that of L‐XRF for the phantoms greater than or equal to 3 cm in diameter. The MC results will provide a guide for developing an optimal benchtop XRF imaging system for in vivo preclinical imaging, depending on the sizes of GNP‐loaded objects, GNP concentrations, and radiation doses.
Mixed cation [H3O]+/[XeF5]+/M2+ (M=Ca, Cd), [O2]+/[XeF5]+/Sr2+ and [H3O]+/Sr2+ fluoridoantimonate(V) salts
Authors: Mazej Zoran , Goreshnik Evgeny 
Published: June 2022

AbstractThe reaction between H3OSbF6, XeF5SbF6, and M(SbF6)2 (M=Ca, Cd) in anhydrous HF gave (H3O)(XeF5)2M2(SbF6)7 ⋅ nHF salts (n=3.95 for M=Ca and n=3.21 for M=Cd) upon crystallization. Their crystal structures consist of SbF6 units connecting M2+ centers located in the same plane. In this way, slabs are formed, each slab containing a layer of M2+ cations. The [XeF5]+ and [H3O]+ cations are located between adjacent slabs. Single crystals of (O2)(XeF5)2Sr4(SbF6)11 ⋅ 8HF were grown from aHF solution prepared by reaction between O2SbF6, XeF2, SrF2, SbF3 and UV‐irradiated F2. Attempts to grow single crystals of the fluoridoantimonate(V) salt containing simultaneously the cation [H3O]+ and XeF2 coordinated to an M2+ metal center failed. Instead, only a few single crystals of the H3O[Sr(HF)2]3(SbF6)6(Sb2F11) salt were observed. An attempt to grow single crystals of NH4XeF5MnF6 from aHF solution yielded only a mixture of (XeF5)2MnF6 and (NH4)2MnF6.
Institutionalization, Interdisciplinarity, and Ambivalence in Research Situations
Authors: Parthey Heinrich 
Published: June 2022

AbstractThis article refers to the heart of science—research and the necessary freedom of research, which only arises with its institutionalization. Science deals with research problems in disciplinary and interdisciplinary research situations. An interdisciplinary research situation exists only when both the formulation of the problem and the methods used to address it require the participation of several disciplines. New scientific institutions, if nothing else, ensure interdisciplinary research. Since the times of Galileo Galilei, science has developed new, powerful research possibilities with the experimental method. The experimental method produces active changes that can also be accompanied by unintended consequences. Science must find a way to deal with this ambivalence without endangering its own freedom.

Long-term effects and costs of pelvic floor muscle training for prolapse: trial follow-up record-linkage study
Authors: Fenocchi Linda , Best Catherine , Mason Helen , Elders Andrew , Hagen Suzanne , Maxwell Margaret 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
Introduction and hypothesis
Pelvic organ prolapse affects around 40% of women aged over 50 years. A multicentre parallel group randomised trial (the Pelvic Organ Prolapse PhysiotherapY (POPPY) trial) demonstrated that pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) was effective in reducing prolapse symptoms compared with no treatment. However, insight into the long-term impact of PFMT on health outcomes and health-service utilisation is scarce.

Methods
This study utilised linkage of Scottish administrative health records to follow-up POPPY trial participants resident in Scotland over 11 years. Mixed effects logistic regression determined the likelihood of receiving further prolapse treatment for those in the PFMT and control groups. Analyses were adjusted for age group, prolapse stage, baseline symptom severity and attitude towards surgery. A cost assessment estimated longitudinal costs to the UK National Health Service (in Scotland) of accessing further prolapse treatment for each trial group.

Results
Two hundred and ninety-three women, aged 25 to 79 years, were followed up. One hundred and forty-one women (48.1%) had received further prolapse treatment: 65 (of 149; 43.6%) in the PFMT group compared with 76 (of 144; 52.8%) in the control group. PFMT was associated with a reduction in the odds of any prolapse treatment during follow-up (AOR 0.61; 95% CI 0.37 to 0.99). Total cost of secondary care was £154,544 (GBP) in the PFMT group and £172,549 (GBP) in the control group.

Conclusions
Although PFMT did not lead to significant differences in total costs for further prolapse treatment over a post-intervention period of more than 10 years, it reduced the overall long-term risk of requiring hospital-based treatment for pelvic floor disorders.
Microbial electrosynthesis of methane and acetate—comparison of pure and mixed cultures
Authors: Hengsbach Jan-Niklas , Sabel-Becker Björn , Ulber Roland , Holtmann Dirk 
Published: June 2022

AbstractThe electrochemical process of microbial electrosynthesis (MES) is used to drive the metabolism of electroactive microorganisms for the production of valuable chemicals and fuels. MES combines the advantages of electrochemistry, engineering, and microbiology and offers alternative production processes based on renewable raw materials and regenerative energies. In addition to the reactor concept and electrode design, the biocatalysts used have a significant influence on the performance of MES. Thus, pure and mixed cultures can be used as biocatalysts. By using mixed cultures, interactions between organisms, such as the direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) or syntrophic interactions, influence the performance in terms of productivity and the product range of MES. This review focuses on the comparison of pure and mixed cultures in microbial electrosynthesis. The performance indicators, such as productivities and coulombic efficiencies (CEs), for both procedural methods are discussed. Typical products in MES are methane and acetate, therefore these processes are the focus of this review. In general, most studies used mixed cultures as biocatalyst, as more advanced performance of mixed cultures has been seen for both products. When comparing pure and mixed cultures in equivalent experimental setups a 3-fold higher methane and a nearly 2-fold higher acetate production rate can be achieved in mixed cultures. However, studies of pure culture MES for methane production have shown some improvement through reactor optimization and operational mode reaching similar performance indicators as mixed culture MES. Overall, the review gives an overview of the advantages and disadvantages of using pure or mixed cultures in MES.Key points•Undefined mixed cultures dominate as inoculums for the MES of methane and acetate, which comprise a high potential of improvement•Under similar conditions, mixed cultures outperform pure cultures in MES•Understanding the role of single species in mixed culture MES is essential for future industrial applications
Animation Supported Consent Before Elective Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy
Authors: Doganay Emre , Wald David S. , Parker Sam , Hughes Frances 
Published: June 2022

AbstractBackgroundPatient understanding of surgical procedures is often incomplete at the time they are performed, invalidating consent, and exposing healthcare providers to complaints and claims of failure to inform. Remote consultations, language barriers and patient factors can hinder an effective consent pathway. New approaches are needed to support communication and shared decision‐making.MethodsMulti‐language digital animations explaining laparoscopic cholecystectomy were introduced at The Royal London Hospital for patients who attended for elective surgery (www.explainmyprocedure.com/lapchole). Patients completed questionnaires on the day of their procedure both before and after introduction of the animations. We assessed patient‐reported understanding of the procedure, its intended benefits, the possible risks, and alternatives to treatment in 72 consecutive patients, 37 before (no animation group) and after 35 after introducing the animations into the consent pathway (animation group). Patient understanding in the two groups was compared.ResultsThe two groups were well matched in respect of age, sex and whether English was their first spoken language. The proportions of patients who reported they completely understood the procedure, its benefits, risks, and alternatives in the no animation group were 54, 57, 38 and 24% and in the animation group, 91, 91, 74 and 77%, respectively; p < 0.01 for each comparison.ConclusionThe integration of multi‐language laparoscopic cholecystectomy video animations into the patient consent pathway was associated with substantial improvement in reported understanding of the procedure, benefits, risks, and alternatives to treatment. This approach can be applied across all surgical disciplines in a standardised manner in an era of accelerated elective work and remote consultations.

Published: June 2022

Abstract
Purpose
To evaluate technical feasibility and safety of common endovascular visceral interventions using a vascular robotic platform through preclinical study.

Material and Methods
The CorPath GRX Robotic System (Corindus Inc, Waltham, Massachusetts) was tested in an anesthetized pig for its ability to navigate various commercially available devices in the abdominal vasculature and to perform routine endovascular visceral procedures. After manually placing a guiding catheter in the celiac trunk, several visceral branches were probed with microcatheters and -wires under robotic assistance, and embolization with liquids (lipiodol), detachable coils and plugs were performed. Furthermore, the origin of the celiac trunk was stented before accessing the left hypogastric artery for pelvic embolization.

Results
All procedures were performed with technical success and without any complications. Navigating the catheters and wires via the steering console proved intuitive. Coil, plug and stent deployment were exclusively controlled by remote with remarkable precision and stability.

Conclusion
Robotic-assisted visceral embolization and stenting as well as pelvic embolization using the CorPath GRX System is feasible and safe. Application of the platform in the abdominal vasculature is demonstrated for the first time. Considering the precision and the potential for reducing the operator’s radiation exposure, further research in this area is highly encouraged to enable translation into clinical practice.
