Childhood abuse represents one of the most potent risk factors for developing psychopathology, especially in females. Evidence suggests that exposure to early-life adversity may be related to advanced maturation of emotion processing neural circuits. However, it remains unknown whether abuse is related to early circuit maturation and whether maturation patterns depend on the presence of psychopathology.
A multisite sample of 234 girls (ages 8-18 years) completed clinical assessment, maltreatment histories, and high-resolution T
-weighted structural MRI. Girls were stratified by abuse history and internalizing disorder diagnosis into typically developing (no abuse/no diagnosis), resilient (abuse/no diagnosis), and susceptible (abuse/current diagnosis) groups. Machine learning models of normative brain development were aggregated in a stacked generalization framework trained to predict chronological age using gray matter volume in whole-brain, emotion, and language circuit parcellations. Brain age gap estiesilient girls may represent neurodevelopmental markers of reduced psychiatric risk following abuse.
Abuse exposure in girls is associated with a delayed structural maturation pattern specific to emotion circuitry, a potentially adaptive mechanism enhancing threat generalization. Physical neglect, on the other hand, is associated with a broader brain-wide pattern of advanced structural maturation. The differential influence of fronto-parietal cortices and the hippocampus on emotion circuit maturity in resilient girls may represent neurodevelopmental markers of reduced psychiatric risk following abuse.
Back-and-forth interaction, or turn taking, may support later joint attention, a more complex form of interaction, when promoted in interventions for young children with autism, especially depending on the child's intent when interacting. In the present study, we observed videos of 20 toddlers with autism engaging in turn taking with their caregivers during an intervention designed to support children's joint attention. We sought to identify when the children displayed turn taking socially and when they were using it for nonsocial purposes in the intervention videos. We also observed videos after the intervention was complete to identify when children used joint attention when interacting with their caregivers. After these observations, we used these video data to explore the relationship of social turn taking to joint attention, and the relationship of nonsocial turn taking to joint attention. We found a significant relationship between social turn taking and joint attention, but not between nonsocial turnrelationship of nonsocial turn taking to joint attention. We found a significant relationship between social turn taking and joint attention, but not between nonsocial turn taking and joint attention. These findings support the importance of considering social turn taking in interactions between young children with autism and their caregivers.Mitral transcatheter therapies represent the treatment of choice for all patients deemed unsuitable for cardiac surgery. So far, the largest clinical experience has been limited to percutaneous repair techniques. However, given the complexity and heterogeneity of mitral valve anatomy and pathology, transcatheter mitral valve implantation will widen the mitral valve therapies horizon, toward a patient-tailored approach. Current data about transcatheter mitral valve implantation is still limited and, although some data are promising, there are still some issues to be addressed. This review provides a comprehensive insight into the available devices and describes potential advantages and limitations of transcatheter mitral valve implantation.Persistent tachycardia in patients with septic shock predicts poor outcome. This study sought to investigate the effect of the cardiac pacemaker current inhibitor ivabradine on heart rate and cardio-circulatory function in patients with septic shock. After informed consent, 60 patients with septic shock and persistent tachycardia (heart rate >95 /minute) were prospectively randomly assigned to receive either standard therapy for septic shock (group S) or standard therapy along with enteral ivabradine (group I) for the initial 96 hours after enrolment. Primary outcome was the difference in heart rate between the two groups during the first 96 hours. Secondary outcomes included the effect of ivabradine on haemodynamic, oxygenation, myocardial function and organ function parameters, incidence of adverse events and 30-day overall survival. Heart rate was lower in group I compared to group S (median difference in area under the curve -25.6 (95% confidence intervals -31.4 to -15.9) /minute; P less then 0.001). Vasopressor requirements, blood lactate levels, Sequential Organ Failure Assessment scores and E/e' ratio were lower in group I compared to group S. Stroke volume index and ejection fraction were higher in group I while cardiac index and oxygen delivery parameters were maintained similar to group S. There was no difference in 30-day mortality or in the incidence of serious adverse events. Enteral ivabradine is effective in reducing heart rate, and improving haemodynamic parameters and cardiac function in patients with septic shock and persistent tachycardia, without increasing the incidence of adverse events.
This systematic review and meta-analysis investigates the effects of strength training program in children and adolescents with cerebral palsy to improve function, activity, and participation.
Five electronic databases (MEDLINE-Pubmed, Cochrane Library, PEDro, CINAHL, and SPORTDiscus) were systematically searched for full-text articles published from inception to 30 June 2021.
Randomized controlled trials were included, who compared (i) child population with spastic cerebral palsy population between 0 and 22 years; (ii) studies in which a muscle strength training program was performed and included dosing information; (iii) studies comparing strength training with other physical therapy technique(s) or untreated control group. Lithium Chloride Studies with similar outcomes were pooled by calculating standardized mean differences. Risk of bias was assessed with Cochrane Collaboration's tool for assessing the risk of bias and PROSPERO's registration number ID CRD42020193535.
Twenty-seven studies, comprising 847 participa III when adequate dosage and specific principles are utilized.Enhancing the spectral selectivity and thermal stability of the absorber used in the concentrated solar power system would boom the conversion efficiency of solar energy to electricity. The ceramic coatings possess excellent thermal stability in optical films. Here, we design the ZrB2-based all-ceramic spectrally selective absorber with a quasioptical microcavity (QOM) structure, which shows an excellent performance with a solar absorptance of 0.965 and superior thermal stability. The pretty high absorptance is due to the design of QOM inducing the multiabsorption mechanisms composed of the intrinsic cermet absorption, the surface plasmon polaritons, and localized surface plasmon resonance proved by the electromagnetic power loss. The structure also demonstrates well-matched impedance with free space in the solar spectrum range, ensuring a high solar absorptance. The proposed absorber can survive at 800 °C in vacuum or 500 °C in air for 200 h, ascribed to the introduction of QOM and ultrahigh-temperature ceramic ZrB2. The total conversion efficiency of an ideal system with this absorber and an ideal thermal engineer can reach around 67% under the conditions of 800 °C and 1000 suns.Polypropylene (PP)/poly(benzyl methacrylate) (PBzMA) composite particles were prepared by dispersion polymerization of benzyl methacrylate (BzMA) in the presence of PP particles without a conventional dispersant. The polymerization process yielded a stable emulsion of composite particles with a "currant bun"-like morphology consisting of a PBzMA core and PP bumps, indicating that the PP particles operate as colloidal stabilizers. Conversely, when BzMA was replaced with styrene as the monomer, dispersion polymerization yielded a large amount of aggregates. Finally, a stable emulsion was formed by copolymerizing a small amount of methyl methacrylate (MMA) with styrene. This result suggested that PP must interact with a second polymer to prepare stable composite particles. The surfaces of the PP particles, which are highly hydrophilic due to their carboxyl groups, were involved in the attachment and stabilization of the polymer precipitated in the medium. A film prepared from the obtained PP/PBzMA composite particles was highly hydrophobic and strongly adhesive to a PP sheet.This work presents a new method how to obtain approximate analytical solutions for the Euler equation for second-row homonuclear dimers. In contrast to the well-known Kohn-Sham method where a system of N nonlinear coupled differential equations must be solved iteratively, orbital-free density functional theory allows to access the minimizing electron density directly via the Euler equation. For simplified models, here, an atom-centered monopole expansion with one free parameter, solutions of the electron density can be obtained analytically by solving the Euler equation at the bond critical point. The procedure is exemplarily carried out for N2, C2, and B2, yielding bound molecules with an internuclear distance of 2.01, 2.43, and 3.07 bohr, respectively.Desalination of seawater through solar-driven interfacial evaporation is an efficient approach to solve the freshwater resource shortage problem. However, the salt formation and crystallization during interfacial evaporation limit the long-term stability of the solar evaporator. To further improve the salt-rejecting capability of the solar evaporator, we developed a porous framework photothermal microgroove-structured aerogel (PDA/PEI/PPy@PI-MS MGA, pppMGA) through a combined freeze drying, laser engraving, and chemical polymerization technique. A multilevel water transport network consisting of a three-dimensional (3D) skeleton, a microgroove-structured water channel, and a cotton core is constructed, which can effectively improve the salt-rejecting capability of the aerogel. At the same time, the combination of the 3D porous microgroove structure of the pppMGA evaporative interface and the efficient light absorption capacity of PPy effectively increases the vapor-liquid evaporation area and the light absorption rate (98%). A high evaporation rate (∼1.38 kg m-2 h-1) and high photothermal conversion efficiency (∼93.04%) can be achieved on the pppMGA evaporator under 1 sun illumination, which can operate stably in high salt concentration (20%) water for 8 h. Even under 3 sun illumination and a 20 wt % NaCl solution, the pppMGA evaporator can operate stably without salt crystallization. Such a photothermal aerogel with high salt-rejecting performance provides a new avenue for designing an interfacial evaporation system that can operate stably under high salt concentration conditions.Air pollution has altered the Earth's radiation balance, disturbed the ecosystem, and increased human morbidity and mortality. Accordingly, a full-coverage high-resolution air pollutant data set with timely updates and historical long-term records is essential to support both research and environmental management. Here, for the first time, we develop a near real-time air pollutant database known as Tracking Air Pollution in China (TAP, http//tapdata.org.cn/) that combines information from multiple data sources, including ground observations, satellite aerosol optical depth (AOD), operational chemical transport model simulations, and other ancillary data such as meteorological fields, land use data, population, and elevation. Daily full-coverage PM2.5 data at a spatial resolution of 10 km is our first near real-time product. The TAP PM2.5 is estimated based on a two-stage machine learning model coupled with the synthetic minority oversampling technique and a tree-based gap-filling method. Our model has an averaged out-of-bag cross-validation R2 of 0.
