    Abstract Aim: This study aimed to compare the effects of myofascial release (MFR) on upper extremity volume in patients with breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL).
    Design: A randomized, single-blinded, cross-over, controlled trial.
    Setting: An outpatient rehabilitation clinical setting.
    Population: Thirty patients with BCRL.
    Methods: Within a crossover design with randomized treatment sequences, fifteen subjects received MFR for 4 weeks, followed by 4 weeks of washout period, and then received placebo MFR and the other fifteen subjects received interventions in the reverse order. Each session had a 60 min process including either MFR or placebo MFR for 30 min, followed by complete decongestive therapy for 30 min twice a week. Upper limb volume as the primary outcome and subjective pain, shoulder range of motion (ROM), chest mobility, shoulder function, and quality of life as secondary outcomes were assessed before and at the end of each intervention period.
    Results: There were significant differences in upper limb volume after both MFR and placebo MFR (P<0.05) while no significant difference between MFR and placebo MFR treatments was found (P>0.05). MFR-based treatment also achieved a greater improvement than placebo MFR-based treatment in subjective pain and shoulder ROM (P<0.05), except for internal rotation, and shoulder function.
    Conclusions: MFR-based treatment showed clinical improvement in shoulder function, induced by decreased edema volume and pain, and improved ROM and chest mobility. However, a further study with parallel randomized controlled trials to confirm what was achieved in the present study.
    Clinical rehabilitation impact: MFR-based treatment is considered an important part of BCRL rehabilitation. Moreover, MFR-based treatment may be safe for patients with BCRL.

    Abstract For decades, the role of glial cells has attracted attention in the neuroscience field. Particularly, although the astrocyte is the most abundant glial cell type, it was believed to function as a passive support cell. However, recent evidence suggests that astrocytes actively release various gliotransmitters and signaling entities that regulate the excitability of pre-and post-synaptic neurons in the brain. In this study, we optimized the ratio of astrocytes and neurons to investigate the interaction between astrocytes and neurons. To this end, postnatal day 0-1 rodent hippocampi were dissociated and cultured. The neuron-astrocyte ratio was monitored for up to 3 weeks after treating the cultures with 0, 1, and 5 µM of cytosine arabinoside (Ara-C) at DIV 2. Subsequently, from postnatal transgenic (TG) mouse expressing ChR2 on astrocytes, hippocampi were cultured on the microelectrode array (MEA) with the desired neuron-astrocyte ratio. The astrocyte was irradiated using a 473 nm blue laser for 30 s in a cycle of 10 Hz and electrophysiological recording was performed to verify the activities of neurons induced by the stimulated astrocytes. Astrocytes and neurons in both co-cultures increased at an identical ratio when treated with 1 µM Ara-C, whereas they decreased significantly when treated with 5 µM Ara-C. Particularly, the laser-stimulated astrocytes induced an increase in the frequency of neuronal activities and lasted after illumination. The proposed co-culture platform is expected to be used in experiments to investigate the network between astrocytes and neurons in vitro.

    Abstract Objective: This study examines the associations of network social capital with obtaining health information from health care professionals, the media, and laypeople. We also investigate whether and how the relationship between social capital and health information acquisition differs by personal health literacy. We used a position generator to measure network social capital.
    Methods: We conducted a survey with a nationally representative sample (N = 626) in the United States in April 2014.
    Results: Network social capital was positively associated with obtaining health information from health professionals, the media, and laypeople. Also, the associations of social capital with health information acquisition from health professionals were enhanced among those with adequate personal health literacy. However, health literacy did not moderate the relationship between social capital and health information acquisition from the media and laypeople.
    Conclusion: Social capital may encourage individuals to utilize health information sources. Also, health literacy might reinforce the linkage between social capital and acquiring health information from health professionals.
    Practice implications: Social capital interventions may promote health information acquisition. Also, health professionals should communicate with patients in a patient-centered way so that low-literate individuals easily understand health information. Moreover, a universal precaution approach should be employed.

    Abstract Reliable nutrient load estimation of a reservoir is challenging due to inconsistent spatial extent and temporal frequency of water quality and quantity measurements. This study aims to collect consistent spatial extent and temporal frequency of water depths and nitrate concentrations of a reservoir in South Korea using uncrewed surface vehicle (USV). In this study, reservoir nitrate loads were estimated using four methods to examine how spatial variation in water depth and nitrate concentrations affected load estimates. Based on dual measurements of water depth and nitrate concentration, reservoir nitrate loads across 30 sampling dates (0.7 million tons of fresh water on average) ranged from one to four tons. Results showed that a point measurement of water depths and nitrate concentrations can cause up to −17% of underestimation of nitrate loads, particularly after intense rainfall events. This study highlights potential opportunities and challenges of the USV‐based dual monitoring systems for water quality and quantity.

    Abstract Water electrolysis is an eco-friendly method for the utilization of renewable energy sources which provide intermittent power supply. Proton exchange membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE) has a high efficiency in this regard. However, the two-phase flow of water and oxygen at the anode side causes performance degradation, and various operating conditions affect the performance of PEMWE. In this study, the effects of four control parameters (operating temperature, flow rate, cell orientation, and pattern of the channel) on the performance of PEMWE were investigated. The effects of the operating conditions on its performance were examined using a 25 cm

    Abstract Diabetes mellitus and mental health disorders create an immense burden on society worldwide. Knowledge of the cellular and biochemical connections linking these two pathologies has broadened and the mechanism for diet-induced shifts in the microbiota has become more refined. However, there remains limited understanding of the mechanism wherein changes in the microbiota affect the development and severity of these diseases and their interconnectedness. This review examines current literature to highlight a potential mechanism that links specific changes in the microbiome to mental health disorders and diabetes mellitus. Novel data indicate that alterations in the abundance and concentration of bacterium in the gut result in an elevated risk for developing mental and metabolic disorders. Through the mechanisms and downstream effects of short-chain fatty acids and the tryptophan metabolizing pathway, the onset of diabetes is shown to directly affect the development of mental health disorders. This paper provides a possible physiological mechanism connecting these two disorders, which could inform future research and policy decisions limiting the global impact of these diseases.
