Abstract
IntroductionAnti-T-lymphocyte globulin (ATG) or post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) prevent graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), yet individual patients benefit differentially.MethodsGiven the sparse comparative data on the impact of cellular immune reconstitution in this setting, we studied flow cytometry and clinical outcomes in 339 recipients of 10/10 matched-unrelated donor (MUD) HCT using either ATG (n=304) or PTCy (n=35) for in vivo T cell manipulation along with a haploidentical PTCy control cohort (n=45). Longitudinal cellular immune reconstitution data were analyzed conventionally and with a data science approach using clustering with dynamic time warping to determine the similarity between time-series of T cell subsets.ResultsConsistent with published studies, no significant differences in clinical outcomes were observed at the cohort level between MUD-ATG and MUD-PTCy. However, cellular reconstitution revealed preferences for distinct T cell subpopulations associating with GVHD protection in each setting. Starting early after HCT, MUD-PTCy patients had higher regulatory T cell levels after HCT (p <0.0001), while MUD-ATG patients presented with higher levels of γδ T- or NKT cells (both p <0.0001). Time-series clustering further dissected the patient population’s heterogeneity revealing distinct immune reconstitution clusters. Importantly, it identified phenotypes that reproducibly associated with impaired clinical outcomes within the same in vivo T cell manipulation platform. Exemplarily, patients with lower activated- and αβ T cell counts had significantly higher NRM (p=0.032) and relapse rates (p =0.01).DiscussionThe improved understanding of the heterogeneity of cellular reconstitution in MUD patients with T cell manipulation both at the cohort and individual level may support clinicians in managing HCT complications.

Abstract
Natural motion types found in skeletal and muscular systems of vertebrate animals inspire researchers to transfer this ability into engineered motion, which is highly desired in robotic systems. Dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) have shown promising capabilities as artificial muscles for driving such structures, as they are soft, lightweight, and can generate large strokes. For maximum performance, dielectric elastomer membranes need to be sufficiently pre-stretched. This fact is challenging, because it is difficult to integrate pre-stretched membranes into entirely soft systems, since the stored strain energy can significantly deform soft elements. Here, we present a soft robotic structure, possessing a bioinspired skeleton integrated into a soft body element, driven by an antagonistic pair of DEA artificial muscles, that enable the robot bending. In its equilibrium state, the setup maintains optimum isotropic pre-stretch. The robot itself has a length of 60 mm and is based on a flexible silicone body, possessing embedded transverse 3D printed struts. These rigid bone-like elements lead to an anisotropic bending stiffness, which only allows bending in one plane while maintaining the DEA's necessary pre-stretch in the other planes. The bones, therefore, define the degrees of freedom and stabilize the system. The DEAs are manufactured by aerosol deposition of a carbon-silicone-composite ink onto a stretchable membrane that is heat cured. Afterwards, the actuators are bonded to the top and bottom of the silicone body. The robotic structure shows large and defined bimorph bending curvature and operates in static as well as dynamic motion. Our experiments describe the influence of membrane pre-stretch and varied stiffness of the silicone body on the static and dynamic bending displacement, resonance frequencies and blocking forces. We also present an analytical model based on the Classical Laminate Theory for the identification of the main influencing parameters. Due to the simple design and processing, our new concept of a bioinspired DEA based robotic structure, with skeletal and muscular reinforcement, offers a wide range of robotic application.

Abstract
We report the use of a surfactant molecule during the epitaxy of graphene on SiC(0001) that leads to the growth in an unconventional orientation, namely R0° rotation with respect to the SiC lattice. It yields a very high-quality single-layer graphene with a uniform orientation with respect to the substrate, on the wafer scale. We find an increased quality and homogeneity compared to the approach based on the use of a preoriented template to induce the unconventional orientation. Using spot profile analysis low-energy electron diffraction, angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy, and the normal incidence x-ray standing wave technique, we assess the crystalline quality and coverage of the graphene layer. Combined with the presence of a covalently bound graphene layer in the conventional orientation underneath, our surfactant-mediated growth offers an ideal platform to prepare epitaxial twisted bilayer graphene via intercalation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the performance of a survey that quantifies the intensity of household tuberculosis (TB) exposure among children.METHODS: Children aged 0-14 years in Lima, Peru, with ≥1 signs and/or symptoms of TB and a history of contact with an adult TB patient were included. The 10-question survey was administered to caregivers and addressed sleep proximity, frequency of exposure, and infectiousness of the contact. Infection status was determined using tuberculin skin tests (TSTs). The exposure scale was evaluated for association with TST positivity using mixed-effects regression analyses.RESULTS: The exposure score was significantly associated with TST positivity (age-adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 1.14, 95%CI 1.02-1.28). We observed a stronger association with TST positivity in children aged ≤5 years; (aOR 1.23, 95%CI 1.07-1.41) and no association in children 6-14 years of age (aOR 0.99, 95%CI 0.82-1.20).CONCLUSION: This survey was easy to use and modestly successful in predicting TST positivity in children aged ≤5 years. It may be a useful resource for clinicians for diagnosing TB in children, and for national TB programs aiming to scale up preventive therapy initiatives.

Abstract
Microfluidic devices present the basis of modern life sciences and chemical information processing. To control the flow and to allow optical readout, a reliable sensor material that can be easily utilized for microfluidic systems is in demand. Here, we present a new optical readout system for pH sensing based on pH sensitive, photoluminescent glutathione capped cadmium telluride quantum dots that are covalently immobilized in a poly(acrylate) hydrogel. For an applicable pH sensing the generated hybrid material is integrated in a microfluidic sensor chip setup. The hybrid material not only allows in situ readout, but also possesses valve properties due to the swelling behavior of the poly(acrylate) hydrogel. In this work, the swelling property of the hybrid material is utilized in a microfluidic valve seat, where a valve opening process is demonstrated by a fluid flow change and in situ monitored by photoluminescence quenching. This discrete photoluminescence detection (ON/OFF) of the fluid flow change (OFF/ON) enables upcoming chemical information processing.

Abstract
We investigate the structural and electronic properties of nitrogen-doped epitaxial monolayer graphene and quasifreestanding monolayer graphene on 6H-SiC(0001) by the normal incidence x-ray standing wave technique and by angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy supported by density functional theory simulations. With the location of various nitrogen species uniquely identified, we observe that for the same doping procedure, the graphene support, consisting of substrate and interface, strongly influences the structural as well as the electronic properties of the resulting doped graphene layer. Compared to epitaxial graphene, quasifreestanding graphene is found to contain fewer nitrogen dopants. However, this lack of dopants is compensated by the proximity of nitrogen atoms at the interface that yield a similar number of charge carriers in graphene.

Abstract
PURPOSE In patients with multiple myeloma (MM), computed tomography is widely used for staging and to detect fractures. Detecting patients at severe fracture risk is of utmost importance. However the criteria for impaired stability of vertebral bodies are not yet clearly defined. We investigated the performance of parameters that can be detected by the radiologist for discrimination of patients with and without fractures. METHODS AND MATERIALS We analyzed 128 whole body low-dose CT of MM patients. In all scans a QCT calibration phantom was integrated into the positioning mat (Image Analysis Phantom(®)). A QCT-software (Structural Insight) performed the volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) measurements. Description of fracture risk was provided from the clinical radiological report. Suspected progressive disease (PD) was reported by the referring clinicians. Two radiologists that were blinded to study outcome reported on the following parameters based on predefined criteria: reduced radiodensity in the massa lateralis of the os sacrum (RDS), trabecular thickening and sclerosis of three or more vertebrae (TTS), extraosseous MM manifestations (EOM), visible small osteolytic lesions up to a length of 8mm (SO) and osteolytic lesions larger than 8mm (LO). Prevalent vertebral fractures (PVF) were defined by Genant criteria. Age-adjusted standardized odds ratios (sOR) per standard deviation change were derived from logistic regression analysis and area under the curve (AUC) from receiver operating characteristics (ROC) analyses were calculated. ROC curves were compared using the DeLong method. RESULTS 45% of the 128 patients showed PVF (29 of 75 men, 24 of 53 women). Patients with PVF were not significantly older than patients without fractures (64.6 ± 9.2 vs. 63.3 ± 12.3 years: mean ± SD, p=0.5). The prevalence of each parameter did not differ significantly by sex. Significant fracture discrimination for age adjusted single models was provided by the parameters vBMD (OR 3.5 [1.4-8.8], AUC=0.64 ± 0.14), SO (sOR 1.6[1.1-2.2], AUC=0.63 ± 0.05), LO (sOR 2.1[1.1-4.2] AUC=0.69 ± 0.05) and RDS (sOR 2.6[1.6-4.7], AUC=0.69 ± 0.05). Multivariate models of these four parameters showed a significantly stronger association with the development of PVF (AUC=0.80 ± 0.04) than single variables. TTS showed a significant association with PVF in men(sOR 1.5 [0.8-3.0], AUC=0.63 ± 0.08), but not in women (sOR 2.3[1.4-3.7], AUC=0.70 ± 0.07). PD was significantly associated with PVF in women (sOR 1.9[1.1-3.6], AUC=0.67 ± 0.08) but not in men (sOR 1.4[0.9-2.3], AUC=0.57 ± .07). EOM were not associated with PVF (sOR 1.0[0.4-2.6], AUC=0.51 ± .05). CONCLUSION In multiple myeloma, focal skeletal changes in low dose CT scans show a significant association with prevalent vertebral fractures. The combination of large osteolytic lesions and loss in radiodensity as can be detected with simple CT Hounsfield measurements of the os sacrum or BMD measurements showed the strongest association to fractures and may be of value for prospective studies.

Abstract
The Double Chooz experiment presents an indication of reactor electron antineutrino disappearance consistent with neutrino oscillations. An observed-to-predicted ratio of events of 0.944±0.016(stat)±0.040(syst) was obtained in 101 days of running at the Chooz nuclear power plant in France, with two 4.25 GW(th) reactors. The results were obtained from a single 10 m(3) fiducial volume detector located 1050 m from the two reactor cores. The reactor antineutrino flux prediction used the Bugey4 flux measurement after correction for differences in core composition. The deficit can be interpreted as an indication of a nonzero value of the still unmeasured neutrino mixing parameter sin(2)2θ(13). Analyzing both the rate of the prompt positrons and their energy spectrum, we find sin(2)2θ(13)=0.086±0.041(stat)±0.030(syst), or, at 90% C.L., 0.017<sin(2)2θ(13)<0.16.

Abstract
Primary human multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are capable of self renewal or differentiation into several different lineages, including osteoblasts, chondrocytes and adipocytes. However, upon prolonged in vitro culture, MSCs tend to undergo spontaneous osteogenic differentiation. Here, we address the possible role of endogenous osteogenic bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) in in situ osteoblastic differentiation of human MSCs. Human MSCs consistently express biologically active BMP-2, BMP-4 and BMP-6 in addition to all BMP-activated receptors, which are functional as shown by the induction of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and up-regulation of osteogenic genes (ALP, BSP1, collagen I and Runx2) following BMP-2 exposure. Since glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) have been implicated in the modulation of the osteogenic bioactivity of BMPs, we reduced sulphated cell surface GAGs by NaClO(3) treatment and found significantly reduced osteogenic gene expression and ALP activity, suggesting that this was partly due to the reduced biological activity of endogenous BMPs. Antagonising osteogenic BMP activity led to a significant reduction in the ALP activity and down-regulation of the transcription factor Runx2 associated with osteogenic development. Blocking BMP receptor type I kinase function with dorsomorphin demonstrated that endogenous osteogenesis was independent of Smad activation but was dependent on phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI-3K). Inclusion of the PI-3K kinase inhibitor Ly294002 significantly reduced osteogenic gene expression and ALP activity. Spontaneous mineralisation was also abrogated following PI-3K inhibition. Thus, endogenous BMPs could contribute to spontaneous osteogenesis through Smad-independent PI-3K-dependent signalling.

Abstract
Several experimental data are available regarding the efficacy of the combination of interstitial hyperthermia and conformal radiation therapy. We planned a phase II trial as a member of the special hyperthermia research group of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (German Research Society) to determine the efficacy of thermoradiotherapy using interstitial cobalt-palladium thermoseeds in the treatment of patients with localized prostate cancer. Forty-one patients with localized prostate cancer were enrolled in the study between July 1997 and April 2000. The interstitial hyperthermia induced in a magnetic field was applied in six sessions once a week. Conformal three-dimensional radiation therapy was given simultaneously in daily fractions of 1.8 Gy with a total dose of 68.4 Gy. We measured intraprostatic temperatures between 42 degrees and 46 degrees C. No major side effects were observed during the hyperthermia session. The median level of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) decreased from 11.25 ng/ml to 0.88 ng/ml 3 months after treatment and to 0.38 ng/ml 12 months after treatment with a median follow-up of 10 months. The mean prostate volume decreased from 32.6 ml to 26 ml after 3 months of treatment and to 18.5 ml after 12 months. Interstitial hyperthermia is a feasible, well-tolerated procedure in prostate cancer therapy. A significant PSA decrease was observed. Longer follow-up is necessary to determine the efficacy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Histomorphologic studies have provided evidence of prostate-specific antigen (PSA)-producing tissue in the female urethra. Some urine samples from women in a small series were positive for PSA, but no systematic investigation of this subject has been done to date. METHODS In a prospective study, we analyzed whether PSA occurs in the urine of women and what factors induce detectable PSA levels. The urine samples of 217 women were analyzed (Hybritech-Tandem E-PSA) under standardized conditions. The impact of urine pH and volume was investigated, and the results were correlated with clinical data (age, residual urine, urinary tract infection and prior sexual intercourse within 48 hours). RESULTS A positive PSA level greater than the detection limit of 0.1 ng/mL was found in 11% of the analyzed samples; their mean value was 0.29 ng/mL. pH correction did not result in a significant difference. The voiding volume had no influence on the PSA level. Among the cases of detectable PSA, women younger than 50 years of age (n = 14) had a mean PSA of 0.34 ng/mL and those older than 50 years (n = 9) a mean of 0.23 ng/mL. One of 9 women with and 22 of 208 women without residual urine volume had a detectable PSA level, as did 0 of 20 with and 23 of 197 women without urinary tract infection, and 3 of 7 with and 20 of 210 women without prior sexual intercourse within the previous 48 hours. None of the differences were significant. CONCLUSIONS A urine PSA level was detected in 11% of all women studied, with PSA values apparently age dependent. Any urine portion is suitable for analysis. No influence was determined for residual urine volume or urinary tract infection. Sexual intercourse may cause detectable PSA values, but the data of this study did not provide sufficient evidence for this hypothesis.

Abstract
The expression of the two gene clusters encoding the particulate methane monooxygenase (pMMO) in Methylococcus capsulatus Bath was assessed by analysis of transcripts and by use of chromosomal gene fusions. The results suggest that the two clusters are functionally redundant but that relative expression alters depending on the copper levels available for growth.
