Abstract
Triboelectric nanogenerators based on the state-of-the-art functional materials and device engineering provide an exciting platform for future multifunctional electronics, but it remains challenging to realize due to the lack of in-depth understanding on the functional properties of nanomaterials that are compatible with microstructural engineering. In this study, a high-performance stretchable (∼60% strain) triboelectric nanogenerator is demonstrated via an interlocked microstructural device configuration sandwiched between silver-nanowire-(Ag-NW) electrodes and hierarchically engineered spongy thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) polymer composite with ferroelectric barium-titanate-coupled (BTO-coupled) 2D MXene (Ti3C2Tx) nanosheets. The use of MXene results in an increase in the dielectric constant whereas the dielectric loss is lowered via coupling with the ferroelectricity of BTO, which increases the overall output performance of the nanogenerator. The spongy nature of the composite film increases the capacitance variation under deformation, which results in improved energy-conversion efficiency (∼79%) and pressure sensitivity (4.6 VkPa-1 and 2.5 mAkPa-1) of the device. With the quantum-mechanically calculated electronic structure, the device converts biomechanical energy to electrical energy and generates an open-circuit output voltage of 260 V, short-circuit output current of 160 mA/m2, and excellent power output of 6.65 W/m2, which is sufficient to operate several consumer electronics. Owing to its superior pressure sensitivity and efficiency, the device enables a broad range of applications including real-time clinical human vital-sign monitoring, acoustic sensing, and multidimensional gesture-sensing functionality of a robotic hand. Considering the ease of fabrication, excellent functionality of the hierarchical polymer nanocomposite, and outstanding energy-harvesting performance of nanogenerators, this work is expected to stimulate the development of next-generation self-powered technology.

Abstract
Human skin perceives physical stimuli applied to the body and mitigates the risk of physical interaction through its soft and resilient mechanical properties. Social robots would benefit from whole-body robotic skin (or tactile sensors) resembling human skin in realizing a safe, intuitive, and contact-rich human-robot interaction. However, existing soft tactile sensors show several drawbacks (complex structure, poor scalability, and fragility), which limit their application in whole-body robotic skin. Here, we introduce biomimetic robotic skin based on hydrogel-elastomer hybrids and tomographic imaging. The developed skin consists of a tough hydrogel and a silicone elastomer forming a skin-inspired multilayer structure, achieving sufficient softness and resilience for protection. The sensor structure can also be easily repaired with adhesives even after severe damage (incision). For multimodal tactile sensation, electrodes and microphones are deployed in the sensor structure to measure local resistance changes and vibration due to touch. The ionic hydrogel layer is deformed owing to an external force, and the resulting local conductivity changes are measured via electrodes. The microphones also detect the vibration generated from touch to determine the location and type of dynamic tactile stimuli. The measurement data are then converted into multimodal tactile information through tomographic imaging and deep neural networks. We further implement a sensorized cosmetic prosthesis, demonstrating that our design could be used to implement deformable or complex-shaped robotic skin.

Abstract
BackgroundLupus low disease activity state (LLDAS) attainment has been reported to be associated with reduced damage accrual, flare, and mortality, as well as improved quality of life, in cohorts of SLE patients with established disease. Whether these associations are present in recent-onset disease is less well known.ObjectivesTo evaluate the associations of LLDAS attainment with outcomes in patients with recent onset SLE.MethodsData from a 13-country longitudinal SLE cohort (ACR/SLICC criteria) were collected prospectively between 2013 and 2020 using standard templates. Organ damage and flare were captured using SLICC Damage Index and SELENA-SLEDAI Flare Index, respectively. LLDAS was defined as Golder et al., 2019 [1]. An inception cohort was defined based on duration since SLE diagnosis<1 year at enrolment. Patient characteristics between inception and non-inception cohorts were compared using Wilcoxon rank-sum (continuous variables) or Pearson’s Chi-squared tests (categorical variables). Survival analyses were performed to examine the association between LLDAS attainment and damage accrual and flare.ResultsThe study cohort included 4,106 patients of whom 680 (16%) were recruited within 1 year of SLE diagnosis (inception cohort). Compared to the non-inception cohort, inception cohort patients were significantly younger, had higher disease activity (SLEDAI-2K and physician global assessment), used more glucocorticoids and immunosuppressants but had less organ damage at enrolment and only 88 (13.6%) patients accrued damage during a median 2.2 years follow-up (Table 1).Table 1.Non-inception cohortInception cohortp-valuen=3426n=680Age at enrolment (years), median [IQR]40 [31, 51]33 [25, 44]<0.001Age at diagnosis (years), median [IQR]28 [21, 38]33 [25, 43]<0.001SLE duration at enrolment (years), median [IQR]10 [5, 16]1 [0, 1]<0.001Study duration (years), median [IQR]2.5 [1.0, 5.4]2.2 [0.9, 3.7]<0.001Females, n (%)3155 (92.1%)623 (91.6%)0.68Asian ethnicity, n (%)3037 (89.1%)595 (88.1%)0.49Prednisolone (PNL) use - ever, n (%)2865 (83.6%)620 (91.2%)<0.001Time adjusted mean (TAM)-PNL, median [IQR]5.0 [2.2, 8.6]6.2 [3.2, 10.3]<0.001Cumulative PNL (g), median [IQR]3.4 [0.5, 9.7]3.8 [1.1, 8.5]0.26Anti-Malarial use - ever, n (%)2669 (77.9%)569 (83.7%)<0.001Immunosupressant use -ever, n (%)2367 (69.1%)521 (76.6%)<0.001AMS (TAM-SLEDAI-2K), median [IQR]2.8 [1.2, 4.6]3.1 [1.6, 5.0]0.002TAM-PGA, median [IQR]0.4 [0.2, 0.7]0.4 [0.3, 0.8]<0.001Mild/moderate/severe flare ever, n (%)1789 (52.2%)391 (57.5%)0.012Organ damage accrual, n (%)629 (20.8%)88 (13.6%)<0.001LLDAS at baseline, n (%)1730 (50.5%)195 (28.7%)<0.001LLDAS-ever (at least once), n (%)2637 (78.2%)492 (73.9%)0.014≥50% time in LLDAS (LLDAS-5), n (%)1612 (50.6%)256 (41.1%)<0.001Significantly fewer inception cohort patients were in LLDAS at enrolment than the non-inception cohort (29% vs. 51%, p<0.001). However, 74% of inception and 78% of non-inception cohort patients achieved LLDAS at least once during follow-up. Limiting analysis only to patients not in LLDAS at enrolment, time to first LLDAS attainment was assessed: inception cohort patients were 60% more likely to attain their first LLDAS (HR = 1.60 (95%CI: 1.40, 1.82), p<0.001) than non-inception cohort patients. LLDAS attainment was significantly protective against flare in the inception (HR, 95% CI) and non-inception (HR, 95% CI) cohorts. Trends towards protection against damage accrual in association with LLDAS in the inception cohort were not significant.ConclusionLLDAS attainment is protective from flare in recent onset SLE. Significant protection from damage accrual was not observed, due to low rates of damage accrual in the first years after SLE diagnosis.References[1]Golder, V., et al., Lupus low disease activity state as a treatment endpoint for systemic lupus erythematosus: a prospective validation study.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of dietary protein intake and regular exercise on low back pain (LBP) using data from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. A total of 2367 middle-aged and older adults (≥50 years) who underwent dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and plain radiography of the lumbar spine were included. LBP was defined using a questionnaire to determine the presence of LBP lasting more than 30 days in the preceding three months. Twenty-four-hour dietary recall data were used to estimate protein intake, and regular exercise was assessed using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire. Multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that men who did not perform regular exercise had a high probability of LBP (odds ratio [OR] 2.34; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.24−4.44). Low protein intake (<0.8 g/kg/day) was associated with high odds for LBP in women (OR 1.83; 95% CI 1.12−2.99). Low protein intake and lack of regular exercise were also associated with a higher probability of LBP in women (OR 2.91; 95% CI 1.48−5.72). We recommend that women over 50 years of age consume the recommended daily amount of protein to prevent LBP and engage in regular exercise.

Abstract
AIMS In the current eighth edition head and neck TNM staging, extranodal extension (ENE) is an adverse feature in oral cavity squamous cell cancer (OSCC). The previous seventh edition N1 with ENE is now staged as N2a. Seventh edition N2+ with ENE is staged as N3b in the eighth edition. We evaluated its potential impact on patients treated with surgery and postoperative intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT). MATERIALS AND METHODS OSCC patients treated with primary surgery and adjuvant (chemo)radiotherapy between January 2005 and December 2014 were reviewed. Cohorts with pathological node-negative (pN-), pathological node-positive without ENE (pN+_pENE-) and pathological node-positive with ENE (pN+_pENE+) diseases were compared for local control, regional control, distant control and overall survival. The pN+ cohorts were further stratified into seventh edition N-staging subgroups for outcomes comparison. RESULTS In total, 478 patients were evaluated: 173 pN-; 159 pN+_pENE-; 146 pN+_pENE+. Outcomes at 5 years were: local control was identical (78%) in all cohorts (P = 0.892), whereas regional control was 91%, 80% and 68%, respectively (P < 0.001). Distant control was 97%, 87%, 68% (P < 0.001) and overall survival was 75%, 53% and 39% (P < 0.001), respectively. Overall survival for N1 and N2a subgroups was not significantly different. In the seventh edition N2b subgroup of pENE- (n = 79) and pENE+ (n = 79) cohorts, overall survival was 67% and 37%, respectively. In the seventh edition N2c subgroups, overall survival for pENE- (n = 17) and pENE+ (n = 38) cohorts was 65% and 35% (P = 0.08), respectively. Overall, an additional 128 patients (42% pN+) were upstaged as N3b. CONCLUSIONS When eighth edition staging was applied, stage migration across the N2-3 categories resulted in expected larger separations of overall survival by stage. Patients treated with primary radiation without surgical staging should have outcomes carefully monitored. Strategies to predict ENE preoperatively and trials to improve the outcomes of pENE+ patients should be explored.

Abstract
Background:The recent prospectively validated definition of the lupus low disease activity state (LLDAS) allows characterisation of patients not achieving a treatment goal, providing impetus for an analysis of unmet needs in SLE using formal definitions. Other recently described definitions of high disease burden include disease activity over time, high disease activity status (HDAS) episodes, and the combination of high disease activity, serological activity and glucocorticoid (GC) use (HDAS+SA+GC).Objectives:To determine the prevalence of formal categories of unmet need, and the association of these with adverse outcomes, in SLE.Methods:Data from a 13-country longitudinal SLE cohort (ACR/SLICC criteria) were collected between 2013 and 19 using standard templates. Unmet need was defined as (i) patients never attaining LLDAS defined as in Golder et al., 2019 [1], (ii) having persistently active disease (time adjusted mean SLEDAI-2K (AMS) > 4), (iii) ever exhibiting high disease activity status (HDAS; SLEDAI-2K ≥10[2]), or (iv) ever exhibiting all of SLEDAI≥10, serological activity, and glucocorticoid use (HDAS+SA+GC)[3]. Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) was assessed using SF36 (v2) surveys and damage accrual using SLE Damage Index (SDI).Results:3,384 SLE patients were followed for 30,313 visits over median [IQR] 2.4 [0.4, 4.3] years. 53% of all visits were not in LLDAS; 813 patients (24%) never achieved LLDAS during observation. Median AMS was 3.0 [1.4, 4.9] and 34% of patients had AMS > 4 throughout the study. 25% of patients had at least one episode of HDAS, representing 8% of visits. 702 patients (21%) had at least one episode of HDAS+SA+GC, representing 8% of visits. Each of never-LLDAS, AMS>4, ever-HDAS, and ever-HDAS+SA+GC were associated with significantly greater number of physician visits, higher mean glucocorticoid dose, lower HRQoL and higher mortality. 31%, 58% and 83% of never-LLDAS, AMS>4, and ever-HDAS patients respectively were also HDAS+SA+GC on at least one occasion.Conclusion:Data from a multinational longitudinal SLE cohort indicate that unmet need, defined by LLDAS-never, AMS>4, HDAS, or HDAS+SA+GC, is prevalent in SLE, and that these definitions are associated with poor outcomes.References:[1]Golder, V., et al., Lupus low disease activity state as a treatment endpoint for systemic lupus erythematosus: a prospective validation study.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Paraplegia post-thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm (TAAA) repair remains both a devastating and poorly understood complication. We related temporal changes in cellular and protein composition of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) to neurological outcomes after TAAA repair to gain mechanistic insights driving paraplegia.
Method
Patients undergoing TAAA repair (open or endovascular) with a CSF drain were prospectively recruited between 2016-2018. CSF was collected pre-operatively and 24-hourly until removal. Daily neurological examinations were performed by blinded neurologists to the study. CSF cell content was characterised by flow cytometry and proteome analysed by tandem-mass-tag proteomics. An in-vivo rat model was modified using 15 minutes of aortic occlusion to produce consistent paraplegia. Rats were analysed neuro-behaviourally and histologically.
Result
CSF was analysed from 52 patients (age: 70.27+/-11.4; 66% male; open (n=9), endovascular (n=43)). 12 developed paraplegia of whom 5 remained permanently-paraplegic. Demographics were comparable between paraplegics, those who recovered and without post-op neurology. Permanent paraplegia was associated with a significant infiltration of CSF CD45+ leucocytes (P<0.0001). Levels of ADVS-1 was >3-fold higher in permanent-paraplegics CSF versus those who recovered (P=0.0008). ADVS-1 >15ng/ml predicted permanent paraplegia with 100% specificity. Pre-treatment with ADVS-1 inhibition significantly improved walking (<0.001) and increased astrocytic staining in the lateral corticospinal, reticulospinal and rubrospinal tracts versus controls (P=0.03, 0.04, 0.04 respectively).
Conclusion
Permanent paraplegia is associated with shedding of ADVS-1 from parenchymal cord into CSF and blood/spinal-cord barrier disruption leading to cord oedema/leucocyte infiltration. Pre-treatment with ADVS-1 inhibition led to neurobehavioural and histological improvements offering translational hope for this devastating complication.
Take-home message
ADVS-1 is a novel biomarker of paraplegia where accurate biomarkers have proven challenging but more importantly it has proven a therapeutic target with genuine translational potential.

Abstract
Malignant tumours arising from the sublingual glands are very rare, and the extent and frequency of local invasion or regional spread in malignant sublingual gland tumour (MSLT) has not been fully studied due to the disease rarity. To provide comprehensive features of local and regional spread of MSLT, we reviewed 20 surgical cases for detailed pathological analyses among 26 cases diagnosed as having primary MSLT. Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) was the most common pathological subtype, followed by mucoepidermoid carcinoma. Disease-free and overall survivals at 5 years were 76.1 % and 77.7 %, respectively. High-grade malignant tumours and grade 2-3 ACC accounted for 41.7 % and 85.7 %. Clinical and pathological extraparenchymal extensions were found in 34.6 % and 80.0 %, respectively. Tumour invasion to the lingual nerve and submandibular gland/ductal system were also detected in 40.0 % and 28.6 %. The incidences of lingual nerve invasion in ACC and ACC ≥4 cm were 30.8 % and 42.9 %. Regional nodal involvement occurred in seven of 26 cases, and all metastatic lymph nodes were found in neck levels Ib and IIa. In summary, a significant portion of MSLT cases consisted of high-grade tumours and grade 2-3 ACC; therefore local invasion into adjacent structures should be cautiously evaluated in cases of MSLT.

Abstract
Abstract
Funding Acknowledgements
Type of funding sources: None.
Background
Right heart failure has been shown to portend poor prognosis. The pathophysiology of right heart function is complex, as right ventricular (RV) function is easily affected by preload and afterload.
Purpose
To test the hypothesis that machine learning would detect heterogeneity in right heart function and improve risk stratifications in a heart failure population
Methods
This study included 403 heart failure patients who had a history of hospitalization for decompensation. Patients were excluded if they had primary heart valve disease or pericardial disease or a previous cardiac surgery. Hierarchical clustering was undertaken on right heart variables (RV strain, right ventricular systolic pressure (RVSP), vena contracta of tricuspid regurgitation (TR) and diameter of inferior vena cava) to identify homogenous groups of patients with similar profiles of the variables. Cox hazard analysis was used to elucidate the benefit of clustering over each variable for prognosticating heart failure. Endpoint was hospitalization for worsening heart failure.
Results
Cluster analysis identified three groups with distinct right heart function. Cluster 1 (n = 191) represented patients with preserved RV function and low RVSP (figure A). On the other hand, cluster 2 (n = 144) had reduced RV function and low RVSP, while cluster 3 (n = 68) had preserved RV function and high RVSP, associated with severe TR and high central venous pressure. The latter 2 clusters carried worse outcome than cluster 1 (p < 0.001, figure B). Cox hazard analysis demonstrated that, although the addition of each right heart variable to baseline model constructed from left heart variables did not improve predictive power, clusters predicted events with a hazard ratio of 1.566, independent from and incremental to the left heart variables (Figure C).
Conclusion
Cluster analysis identified two distinct phenotypes of right heart failure that were associated with adverse outcomes. This data-driven phenotyping can help in categorizing right heart failure and better prognosticating heart failure.

Int J Med Sci 2021; 18:2117-2127. [PMID: 33859518 PMCID: PMC8040410 DOI: 10.7150/ijms.54677] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2020] [Accepted: 03/01/2021] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Assessment the depth of dexmedetomidine sedation using electroencephalographic (EEG) features can improve the quality of procedural sedation. Previous volunteer studies of dexmedetomidine-induced EEG changes need to be validated, and changes in bicoherence spectra during dexmedetomidine sedation has not been revealed yet. We aimed to investigate the dexmedetomidine-induced EEG change using power spectral and bicoherence analyses in the clinical setting. Patients and Methods: Thirty-six patients undergoing orthopedic surgery under spinal anesthesia were enrolled in this study. Dexmedetomidine sedation was conducted by the stepwise increase in target effect site concentration (Ce) while assessing sedation levels. Bispectral index (BIS) and frontal electroencephalography were recorded continuously, and the performance of BIS and changes in power and bicoherence spectra were analyzed with the data from the F3 electrode. Results: The prediction probability values for detecting different sedation levels were 0.847, 0.841, and 0.844 in BIS, 95% spectral edge frequency, and dexmedetomidine Ce, respectively. As the depth of sedation increased, δ power increased, but high β and γ power decreased significantly (P <0.001). α and spindle power increased significantly under light and moderate sedation (P <0.001 in light vs baseline and deep sedation; P = 0.002 and P <0.001 in moderate sedation vs baseline and deep sedation, respectively). The bicoherence peaks of the δ and α-spindle regions along the diagonal line of the bicoherence matrix emerged during moderate and deep sedation. Peak bicoherence in the δ area showed sedation-dependent increases (29.93%±7.38%, 36.72%±9.70%, 44.88%±12.90%; light, moderate, and deep sedation; P = 0.008 and P <0.001 in light sedation vs moderate and deep sedation, respectively; P = 0.007 in moderate sedation vs deep sedation), whereas peak bicoherence in the α-spindle area did not change (22.92%±4.90%, 24.72%±4.96%, and 26.96%±8.42%, respectively; P=0.053). Conclusions: The increase of δ power and the decrease of high-frequency power were associated with the gradual deepening of dexmedetomidine sedation. The δ bicoherence peak increased with increasing sedation level and can serve as an indicator reflecting dexmedetomidine sedation levels.
