Abstract

We present diamond-like carbon (DLC) conversion surfaces to detect particles with energy below 2 keV. Conversion surfaces have been widely applied in measurements of low-energy particles by instruments onboard planetary and heliophysics missions. Their effectiveness is characterized by the efficiency in changing the charge state of the incident particles while maintaining a narrow angular distribution for the reflected particles. DLC as a conversion surface coating material has high conversion efficiency. We developed a conversion surface production process that provides ultra-smooth and ultra-thin DLC conversion surfaces. The process includes substrate preparation through precision cleaning, plasma immersion ion deposition of the DLC film, and diagnostics of the film parameters. The latter includes the measurement of the coating thickness, surface roughness, and the conversion efficiency for ion beams with energy below 2 keV. The process we developed provides the DLC conversion surface coating of repeatable parameters with a mean surface roughness of 3.4 ± 0.2 Å and a mean film thickness of 46.7 ± 0.8 nm uniform across the sample area. Ion beam measurements showed a negative ion yield of 1%–2% for hydrogen atoms and 8%–15% for oxygen atoms with an angular scatter distribution of 10°–20° at full width of half maximum. These results agree with those of other conversion surface coatings in the literature. The DLC conversion surfaces presented here are implemented in the conversion surface subsystem of the Interstellar Mapping and Acceleration Probe (IMAP)-Lo instrument of the IMAP mission scheduled for launch in 2025.

Abstract

BackgroundUse of targeted exome-arrays with common, rare variants and functionally enriched variation has led to discovery of new genes contributing to population variation in risk factors. Plasminogen activator-inhibitor 1 (PAI-1), tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), and the plasma product D-dimer are important components of the fibrinolytic system. There have been few large-scale genome-wide or exome-wide studies of PAI-1, tPA, and D-dimer.ObjectivesWe sought to discover new genetic loci contributing to variation in these traits using an exome-array approach.MethodsCohort-level analyses and fixed effects meta-analyses of PAI-1 (n = 15 603), tPA (n = 6876,) and D-dimer (n = 19 306) from 12 cohorts of European ancestry with diverse study design were conducted, including single-variant analyses and gene-based burden testing.ResultsFive variants located in NME7, FGL1, and the fibrinogen locus, all associated with D-dimer levels, achieved genome-wide significance (P

Abstract

Platelet aggregation at the site of atherosclerotic vascular injury is the underlying pathophysiology of myocardial infarction and stroke. To build upon prior GWAS, here we report on 16 loci identified through a whole genome sequencing (WGS) approach in 3,855 NHLBI Trans-Omics for Precision Medicine (TOPMed) participants deeply phenotyped for platelet aggregation. We identify the RGS18 locus, which encodes a myeloerythroid lineage-specific regulator of G-protein signaling that co-localizes with expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) signatures for RGS18 expression in platelets. Gene-based approaches implicate the SVEP1 gene, a known contributor of coronary artery disease risk. Sentinel variants at RGS18 and PEAR1 are associated with thrombosis risk and increased gastrointestinal bleeding risk, respectively. Our WGS findings add to previously identified GWAS loci, provide insights regarding the mechanism(s) by which genetics may influence cardiovascular disease risk, and underscore the importance of rare variant and regulatory approaches to identifying loci contributing to complex phenotypes.

Abstract

Most loci identified by GWASs have been found in populations of European ancestry (EUR). In trans-ethnic meta-analyses for 15 hematological traits in 746,667 participants, including 184,535 non-EUR individuals, we identified 5,552 trait-variant associations at p < 5 × 10-9, including 71 novel associations not found in EUR populations. We also identified 28 additional novel variants in ancestry-specific, non-EUR meta-analyses, including an IL7 missense variant in South Asians associated with lymphocyte count in vivo and IL-7 secretion levels in vitro. Fine-mapping prioritized variants annotated as functional and generated 95% credible sets that were 30% smaller when using the trans-ethnic as opposed to the EUR-only results. We explored the clinical significance and predictive value of trans-ethnic variants in multiple populations and compared genetic architecture and the effect of natural selection on these blood phenotypes between populations. Altogether, our results for hematological traits highlight the value of a more global representation of populations in genetic studies.

Abstract

Background: Neurosurgery demands exceptional precision due to the brain's complex and delicate structures, necessitating precise targeting of pathological targets. Achieving optimal outcomes depends on the surgeon's ability to accurately differentiate between healthy and pathological tissues during operations. Raman spectroscopy (RS) has emerged as a promising innovation, offering real-time, in vivo non-invasive biochemical tissue characterization. This literature review evaluates the current research on RS applications in intraoperative neurosurgery, emphasizing its potential to enhance surgical precision and patient outcomes. Methods: Following PRISMA guidelines, a comprehensive systematic review was conducted using PubMed to extract relevant peer-reviewed articles. The inclusion criteria focused on original research discussing real-time RS applications with human tissue samples in or near the operating room, excluding retrospective studies, reviews, non-human research, and other non-relevant publications. Results: Our findings demonstrate that RS significantly improves tumor margin delineation, with handheld devices achieving high sensitivity and specificity. Stimulated Raman Histology (SRH) provides rapid, high-resolution tissue images comparable to traditional histopathology but with reduced time to diagnosis. Additionally, RS shows promise in identifying tumor types and grades, aiding precise surgical decision-making. RS techniques have been particularly beneficial in enhancing the accuracy of glioma surgeries, where distinguishing between tumor and healthy tissue is critical. By providing real-time molecular data, RS aids neurosurgeons in maximizing the extent of resection (EOR) while minimizing damage to normal brain tissue, potentially improving patient outcomes and reducing recurrence rates. Conclusions: This review underscores the transformative potential of RS in neurosurgery, advocating for continued innovation and research to fully realize its benefits. Despite its substantial potential, further research is needed to validate RS's clinical utility and cost-effectiveness. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

The physics of the metal-insulator transition (MIT) in vanadium dioxide remains a subject of intense interest. Because of the complicating effects of elastic strain on the phase transition, there is interest in comparatively strain-free means of examining VO2 material properties. We report contact-free, low-strain studies of the MIT through an inductive bridge approach sensitive to the magnetic response of VO2 powder. Rather than observing the expected step-like change in susceptibility at the transition, we argue that the measured response is dominated by an analog of the Barkhausen effect, due to the extremely sharp jump in the magnetic response of each grain as a function of time as the material is cycled across the phase boundary. This effect suggests that future measurements could access the dynamics of this and similar phase transitions., Comment: 16 pages, 4 figures. Accepted for publication in Appl. Phys. Lett

VCFs often result in debilitating back pain and decreased mobility. Cement augmentation, a minimally invasive surgical technique, is widely used to stabilize fractures and restore vertebral height. Acrylic-based cements and calcium phosphate cements are currently the two primary fill materials utilized for these procedures. Despite their effectiveness, acrylic bone cements and calcium phosphate cements have been associated with various intraoperative and postoperative incidents impacting VCF treatment. Over the past decade, discoveries in the field of biomedical engineering and material science have shown advancements toward addressing these limitations.

Abstract

Coagulation factor VIII (FVIII) and its carrier protein von Willebrand factor (VWF) are critical to coagulation and platelet aggregation. We leveraged whole-genome sequence data from the Trans-Omics for Precision Medicine (TOPMed) program along with TOPMed-based imputation of genotypes in additional samples to identify genetic associations with circulating FVIII and VWF levels in a single-variant meta-analysis, including up to 45 289 participants. Gene-based aggregate tests were implemented in TOPMed. We identified 3 candidate causal genes and tested their functional effect on FVIII release from human liver endothelial cells (HLECs) and VWF release from human umbilical vein endothelial cells. Mendelian randomization was also performed to provide evidence for causal associations of FVIII and VWF with thrombotic outcomes. We identified associations (P < 5 × 10−9) at 7 new loci for FVIII (ST3GAL4, CLEC4M, B3GNT2, ASGR1, F12, KNG1, and TREM1/NCR2) and 1 for VWF (B3GNT2). VWF, ABO, and STAB2 were associated with FVIII and VWF in gene-based analyses. Multiphenotype analysis of FVIII and VWF identified another 3 new loci, including PDIA3. Silencing of B3GNT2 and the previously reported CD36 gene decreased release of FVIII by HLECs, whereas silencing of B3GNT2, CD36, and PDIA3 decreased release of VWF by HVECs. Mendelian randomization supports causal association of higher FVIII and VWF with increased risk of thrombotic outcomes. Seven new loci were identified for FVIII and 1 for VWF, with evidence supporting causal associations of FVIII and VWF with thrombotic outcomes. B3GNT2, CD36, and PDIA3 modulate the release of FVIII and/or VWF in vitro., Coagulation factor VIII (FVIII) and its carrier protein von Willebrand factor (VWF) are critical to coagulation and platelet aggregation.

Abstract

Magnetic hyperthermia therapy (MHT) is a re-emerging treatment modality for brain tumors where magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) are locally delivered to the brain and then activated with an external alternating magnetic field (AMF) to generate localized heat at a site of interest. Due to the recent advancements in technology and theory surrounding the intervention, clinical and pre-clinical trials have demonstrated that MHT may enhance the effectiveness of chemotherapy and radiation therapy (RT) for the treatment of brain tumors. The future clinical success of MHT relies heavily on designing MNPs optimized for both heating and imaging, developing reliable methods for the local delivery of MNPs, and designing AMF systems with integrated magnetic particle imaging (MPI) for use in humans. However, despite the progression of technological development, the clinical progress of MHT has been underwhelming. This review aims to summarize the current state-of-the-art of MHT and offers insight into the current barriers and potential solutions for moving MHT forward. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
