Published: February 2022

AbstractThe aim of this investigation was to examine the impact of the weekly training
load and the match running patterns prior to a muscle injury as potential risk
factors of muscle injury in professional football players. Forty male
professional football players participated in the investigation. Running
distances at different intensities 5 min and 15 min prior to the
injury were compared to the same time-points in official matches of the same
player with no injury events. Furthermore, the cummulative session
rating of perceived exertion (sRPE) and training load of the week prior to the
injury were compared to a control week (mean value of training weeks without
injury). Nineteen players suffered 31 non-contact muscle injuries during
matches. The distance covered at 21–24 km/h
(p<0.001; effect size (ES)=0.62) and
at>24 km/h (p=0.004; ES=0.51) over the
5-min period prior to the injury was greater than in matches without injury. The
cumulative sRPE (p=0.014; ES=1.33) and training volume
(p=0.002; ES=2.45) in the week prior to the injury was higher
than in a control week. The current data suggest that the combination of a
training week with a high load and a short period of high intensity running
during the match might increase the risk of muscle injury in professional
footballers.

Published: February 2022

Abstract
Background A blended learning program to promote the consultation
expertise of pediatric oncologists (POs) on complementary and integrative
medicine (CIM) was developed and completed by POs as part of a training program.
A previous study indicated that POs in Germany were in need of information and
training on CIM, and that there were no medical training offers on the subject
in Germany.
Methods Evaluation of e-learning (questionnaires) and practically oriented
one-day, face-to-face workshops (questionnaires, simulation patients), the
workshops were evaluated with regard to changes in quality of physician-patient
interaction and with regard of the participants’ feedback.
Results 32 POs signed up for the program and completed the e-learning. 22
POs participated in one of the workshops. POs agreed that they had received
professionally relevant content during the e-learning. The questionnaires on
physician-patient interaction showed neither clear positive nor negative changes
concerning the quality of interaction. The feedback from the participants on the
workshop was very positive.
Conclusion Following the end of the blended learning program the
e-learning was made available again for interested POs. 34 further applications
were received for participation in this part of the training program. With
around 300 POs in Germany, this shows a high demand for further training offers
of this kind as well as a need for further development.
Das schöne, glatte Bein: Haarentfernung durch Laser und lichtbasierte Verfahren
Authors: Braun Tatjana , Kleimann Pia , Meissner Markus , Kaufmann Roland , Valesky Eva Maria 
Published: February 2022

ZusammenfassungDie Fotoepilation zählt zu den meistgefragten nichtchirurgischen Eingriffen in der ästhetischen Dermatologie. Haarlose, glatte Beine gelten dabei als Schönheitsideal.Fotoepilation mittels Laser oder hochenergetischer Blitzlampen (sog. Intensed-Pulsed-Light-Geräte) stellt ein sicheres und effektives Verfahren dar. Der Wirkmechanismus beruht auf dem Prinzip der selektiven Fotothermolyse, wobei eine gezielte thermische Schädigung pigmentierter Haarfollikel unter Schonung des umliegenden Gewebes erfolgt. Melaninpigment des Haarschaftes absorbiert als Zielchromophor Licht eines speziellen Wellenlängenspektrums und führt durch Wärmediffusion zur Schädigung der für das Haarwachstum wichtigen Stammzellen im äußeren Haarwurzelschaft.Patienten müssen über die Notwendigkeit wiederholter Behandlungen sowie den häufig nur partiellen und temporären Haarverlust aufgeklärt werden. Dunkle Terminalhaare bei hellen Hauttypen lassen sich effektiv entfernen. Bei dunklen Hauttypen besteht aufgrund des erhöhten epidermalen Melaninvorkommens ein erhöhtes Risiko für Nebenwirkungen wie Verbrennungen, Dyspigmentierungen und Narben. Sehr feine, helle oder rote Haare lassen sich kaum mit konventionellen Fotoepilationsverfahren entfernen. Haarentfernungsgeräte für den Heimgebrauch sind eine kostengünstige, einfach anzuwendende Alternative, weisen aber im Vergleich zur professionellen Fotoepilation eine geringere Effektivität auf.
Mehr soziale Teilhabe für Hörgeschädigte
durch Cochlea-Implantate? Zur Ambivalenz der Mensch-Maschine-Interaktion und zum
Stellenwert psycho-sozialer Begleitung
Authors: Roder Sascha , Strünck Christoph 
Published: February 2022

Zusammenfassung
Ziel der Studie Cochlea-Implantate können Menschen mit einer
erworbenen, progredient verlaufenden Ertaubung helfen, ihr
Hörvermögen wiederzuerlangen. Die betroffenen Personen
durchleben allerdings auch einen jahrelangen Prozess der Adaptation, in dem sie
ein neues, technisch unterstütztes Hören lernen müssen.
Die Studie zeigt, wie Betroffene diesen Prozess erleben und ob ihre Erwartungen
an das Implantat erfüllt werden.
Methodik Im Rahmen einer qualitativen Studie wurden 50
Cochlea-Implantat-Träger*innen in einem
Leitfaden-gestützten Interview befragt. 30 Personen wurden über
den Kontakt zu Selbsthilfegruppen rekrutiert, weitere 20 Personen über
ein Hörzentrum nach Vermittlung durch einen leitenden Audiologen. Die
Interviewten gaben Auskunft über ihre persönlichen Erfahrungen
mit den operierenden Kliniken, über das Erleben der sozialen,
kulturellen und beruflichen Teilhabe sowie über die auch nach der
CI-Versorgung bestehenden Hörbarrieren im Alltag. Die Befragten trugen
die Hörprothese maximal drei Jahre, ein Zeitrahmen, innerhalb dessen die
meisten der Folgetherapien beendet sind und der initiale Lernprozess mit dem CI
als abgeschlossen gilt.
Ergebnisse Auch mit einem Cochlea-Implantat bleiben
Kommunikationshindernisse bestehen. Erwartungen eines vollen
Hörverstehens im Freundes- und Bekanntenkreis werden nur bedingt
erfüllt. Schwierigkeiten im Umgang mit einer hochtechnisierten
Hörprothese sowie das Erleben als „Fremdkörper“
erschweren die Akzeptanz eines CIs.
Schlussfolgerung Die Beratung in der Versorgung mit Cochlea-Implantaten
sollte sich an realistischen Zielen und Erwartungen orientieren. Die Versorgung
mit einem CI lässt sich verbessern, wenn angeleitete
Hörtrainings und Kommunikationsangebote ausgeweitet werden. Auch
können ortsnahe Versorgungsstrukturen wie zum Beispiel über
zertifizierte Hörakustiker einbezogen werden und dabei helfen,
Unsicherheiten abzubauen.
A One-Pot Synthesis of Disubstituted Thiazoles from Chalcone C–H Bonds, Elemental Sulfur, and Glycine Ethyl Ester

Published: February 2022

AbstractA method for assembling chalcones, glycine ethyl ester hydrochloride, and elemental sulfur toward a synthesis of 4,5-disubstituted thiazoles is reported. The transformation presumably proceeds via a sequence of β-C–H amination, annulation, and dealkoxycarbonylation. This tactic represents a rare example of a method for obtaining such disubstituted thiazoles directly from chalcone C–H bonds.

Published: February 2022

Abstract
Background We compared intraoperative and postoperative anesthetic parameters between simple (S-single suture) and complex (C-more than one suture) craniosynostosis cases.
Materials and Methods Data was collected from a retrospective review of anesthetic and postoperative records of patients who underwent craniosynostosis correction surgery between April 2014 and August 2019. Pearson’s chi-square and independent sample t-tests were used for analysis.
Results We analyzed data of 98 patients (S-simple craniosynostosis: 40 and C-complex craniosynostosis: 58). Statistically significant differences between simple and complex cases were seen only in the incidence of difficult airway, failed extubation, and requirement of postoperative ventilation. Massive blood loss (S: 23.21 mL/kg; C: 22.71 mL/kg) and difficult airway (S: 2.04%; C: 19.39%) were the most common intraoperative adverse events encountered. Metabolic abnormalities, hemodynamic instability, and hypothermia occurred in few patients. The most common postoperative issue was pyrexia (S: 15.31%; C: 17.35%). Anemia and coagulopathy needing transfusion of blood products and vitamin K injection were seen in a significant number of cases. Three nonsyndromic patients developed seizures.
Conclusion The incidence of difficult airway and failed extubation with postoperative ventilation is more frequent following surgery for complex craniosynostosis than simple craniosynostosis. Complications secondary to blood loss and airway issues were the primary cause of morbidity and mortality. A staged approach to surgical management resulted in decreased surgical blood loss among the children with complex craniosynostosis.

Published: February 2022

AbstractNeurological complications following labor epidural analgesia have varied outcomes. While most of the complications resolve spontaneously, a few cases may need appropriate intervention to prevent the progression of transient deficit to a permanent sequela. There have been case reports of permanent damage as well. Here we present a report of a parturient who developed flaccid paraplegia following labor epidural but recovered completely after catheter removal. Catheter-related neurological complications do occur and irritation of the anterior spinal artery causing transient paraplegia was considered as a possible etiology here.

Authors: Sreenivasan Anuprasad , Krishna Rajalakshmi , Nair Pradeep Pankajakshan , Alexander Arun 
Published: February 2022

AbstractObjectives Working memory abilities are essential in the perception of acoustic signals, especially in the presence of noise. This study aimed to measure the working memory and its associated factors in children with self-limited epilepsy with centrotemporal spikes (SECTS) and compare it with the typically developing children (TDC) without epilepsy.Materials and Methods Twenty-two children with SECTS and 22 typically developing children participated in the study. The Digit span backward test was used for measuring working memory abilities.Statistical Analysis and Results The working memory of children with SECTS, measured with backward digit span, was significantly poor compared with the TDC (p < 0.001). Factors such as the age of onset of seizures, duration of seizures, frequency of seizures and spike load did not influence the working memory.Conclusion The children with SECTS demonstrated impairment in working memory abilities compared with normal children. The association between poor working memory and reported speech recognition impairment in children with SECTS needs to be studied.

Published: February 2022

Abstract
Background A Pediatric Epilepsy Program was instituted in Manitoba in 2016. This report seeks to describe changes in the management of pediatric epilepsy patients in Manitoba since the inception of this Program, to provide an early analysis of local outcomes, and to present a framework for further program development.
Methods Data was collected for patients treated both before and after inception of the Program. Caregivers completed questionnaires on quality of life and program satisfaction. An online database was created to capture demographic information, seizure and quality of life outcomes, and caregiver satisfaction ratings. Descriptive statistics were used to summarize the results.
Results Prior to commencement of the Program, 16 patients underwent vagal nerve stimulator (VNS) insertion. At last follow-up, 6.25% of patients achieved Engel class I outcome, 75% achieved class III outcome, and 18.75% were classified as class IV. Following inception of the Program, 11 patients underwent resective procedures and 3 underwent VNS insertions. At last follow-up, 78.6% of patients achieved Engel class I outcome, 14.3% achieved class III outcome, and 7.1% were classified as class IV. Since inception of the Program, the average Quality of Life in Childhood Epilepsy Questionnaire-55 score measuring patient quality of life was (59.7 ± 23.2)/100. The average Care-Related Quality of Life-7D score measuring caregiver quality of life was (78.3 ± 18.6)/100. Caregiver satisfaction had an average rating of (9.4 ± 0.8)/10.
Conclusion Access to epilepsy surgery has significantly improved for children in Manitoba and has led to favorable, early multidimensional outcomes. Structural organization, funding, and multidisciplinary engagement are necessary for program sustainability and growth.
Can Noninvasive Oxygen Saturation Index Match Invasive Oxygenation Index to Monitor Respiratory Disease in Critically Ill Children?—A Prospective Study
Authors: Kallenahalli Jagadish Kumar , Chowdary Satyesh , Doreswamy Srinivasa Murthy 
Published: February 2022

AbstractRespiratory illnesses are common indications for mechanical ventilation in children. The adequacy of ventilatory support for oxygenation is measured using arterial blood gas analysis and calculation of oxygenation index (OI). Due to invasive nature of arterial blood sampling needed to calculate OI, several researchers have replaced blood gas-derived partial pressure of oxygen values with oxygen saturation (SpO2) obtained from pulse oximetry. This noninvasive index called oxygen saturation index (OSI) is found to be useful in neonates. Studies in pediatric population are lacking. In this prospective study on mechanically ventilated children, both OI and OSI were determined and compared against alveolar–arterial oxygen difference (AaDO2). A total of 29 children were studied. Both OSI and OI had good correlation of 0.787 and 0.792 with AaDO2, respectively. OSI of 7.3 and 9.4 had good sensitivity and specificity for AaDO2 cutoffs of 344 and 498, which represents moderate and severe respiratory illness, respectively. The correlation coefficients of both OSI and OI are similar against AaDO2. OSI can be used instead of OI for constant monitoring of children on mechanical ventilation. Arterial blood gas analysis and calculation of OI can be reserved for situations where SpO2 measurement is unreliable.
Laser control of a dark vibrational state of acetylene in the gas phase—Fourier transform pulse shaping constraints and effects of decoherence

Published: February 2022

We propose a methodology to tackle the laser control of a non-stationary dark ro-vibrational state of acetylene (C2H2), given realistic experimental limitations in the 7.7 μm (1300 cm−1) region. Simulations are performed using the Lindblad master equation, where the so-called Lindblad parameters are used to describe the effect of the environment in the dilute gas phase. A phenomenological representation of the parameters is used, and they are extracted from high-resolution spectroscopy line broadening data. An effective Hamiltonian is used for the description of the system down to the rotational level close to experimental accuracy. The quality of both the Hamiltonian and Lindblad parameters is assessed by a comparison of a calculated infrared spectrum with the available experimental data. A single shaped laser pulse is used to perform the control, where elements of optics and pulse shaping using masks are introduced with emphasis on experimental limitations. The optimization procedure, based on gradients, explicitly takes into account the experimental constraints. Control performances are reported for shaping masks of increasing complexity. Although modest performances are obtained, mainly due to the strong pulse shaping constraints, we gain insights into the control mechanism. This work is the first step toward the conception of a realistic experiment that will allow for population characterization and manipulation of a non-stationary vibrational “dark” state. Effects of the collisions on the laser control in the dilute gas phase, leading to decoherence in the molecular system, are clearly shown.

Published: February 2022

Significance
Diamond-based quantum sensing enables nanoscale measurements of biological systems with unprecedented sensitivity. Potential applications of this emerging technology range from the investigation of fundamental biological processes to the development of next-generation medical diagnostics devices. One of the main challenges faced by bioquantum sensing is the need to interface quantum sensors with biological target systems. Specifically, such an interface needs to maintain the highly fragile quantum states of our sensor and at the same time be able to fish intact biomolecules out of solution and immobilize them on our quantum sensor surface. Our work overcomes these challenges by combining tools from quantum engineering, single-molecule biophysics, and material processing.
On the free rotation of a polarized spinning-top as a test of the correct radiation reaction torque
Authors: Duviryak A 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
The formula for dipole radiation reaction torque acting on a system of charges, and the Larmor-like formula for the angular momentum loss by this system, differ in the time derivative term which is the analogue of the Schott term in the energy loss problem. In the well-known textbooks this discrepancy is commonly avoided via neglect of the Schott term, and the Larmor-like formula is preferred. In the present paper both formulae are used to derive two different equations of motion of a polarized spinning-top. Both equations are integrable for the symmetric top and lead to quite different solutions. That one following from the Larmor-like formula is physically unplausible, in contrast to another one. This result is accorded with the reinterpretation of Larmor’s formula discussed recently in the pedagogical literature. It is appeared, besides, that the Schott term is of not only academic significance, but it may determine the behavior of polarized micro- and nanoparticles in nature or future experiments.
Pressure-induced Fermi resonance between fundamental modes in phthalic anhydride
Authors: Liu HaiRui , Chen YinQi , Liu Guangtao , Zhou Mi 
Published: February 2022

Abstract

In situ high-pressure Raman spectra of phthalic anhydride (PA) have been measured up to 16 GPa through diamond anvil cell technique. The results show that all the Raman bands are blue-shifted with the increase of pressure, accompanied by appearance of some new bands. A Fermi resonance phenomenon of the two Raman fundamental modes of PA at 773 cm−1 and 801 cm−1 is proposed at pressures above 6.6 GPa, where a possible first-order phase transition occurs. The pressure-induced changes of Fermi resonance parameters, e.g., intensity ratio, coupling coefficient and frequency gap of unperturbed transition, are discussed.
Study of digital/analog performance parameters of misaligned gate recessed double gate junctionless field-effect-transistor for circuit level application
Authors: Kumar Sandeep , Chatterjee Arun Kumar , Pandey Rishikesh 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
In this work, the effect of gate misalignment towards the source and drain ends for 20 nm recessed double gate junctionless field-effect-transistor (R_DGJLFET) have been studied on various digital and analog performance parameters from device to circuit level while setting the simulation set-up using 2D Silvaco ATLAS technology computer aided design (TCAD). With recessed silicon channel, the quantum confinement effects have been considered for channel thickness <7 nm. In comparison to conventional double gate junctionless FET (C_DGJLFET), the device exhibits lesser OFF-current, improved ON-to-OFF current ratio, better subthreshold slope (SS), and lower drain-induced-barrier-lowering (DIBL). Analogically, it has been found that the misaligned gate towards drain affects the digital and analog parameters more severely in comparison to gate misalignment towards the source end. However, the misaligned R_DGJLFET towards the drain end shows robustness in terms of SS and DIBL with smaller variations of ∼10.84% and ∼61.79%, respectively. Moreover, due to very low parasitic capacitances, the device shows lesser variations in different alternating current (AC) performance parameters namely, transconductance generation factor (TGF), unity gain frequency, and gain-bandwidth product in comparison to C_DGJLFET. With gate misalignment towards source the unity gain frequency, and gain-bandwidth improve by ∼9.67% and ∼19.9%, respectively whereas the TGF remains almost unaffected. Furthermore, to ensure the device capability in circuit application a complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) inverter and common-source (CS) amplifier based on R_DGJLFET have been designed. In contrast to C_DGJLFET based counterpart, the R_DGJLFET expresses its suitability for low-power digital applications with better noise margins and smaller short-circuit current in the CMOS inverter. In analog domain, the R_DGJLFET based CS amplifier shows an improved amplification factor of 4.75 in comparison to C_DGJLFET. This paper provides deep insight into the severity of gate misalignment towards source/drain for R_DGJLFET in both digital and analog domains from device to circuit level.
