012; effect size = 1.74). In conclusion, the ACL-IPP appears to acutely reduce the DKV in youth male soccer players, and the SSFP seems to acutely increase the DKV in those players who showed a light or no DKV in a non-fatigue situation. By using the SSFP, it may be possible to determine which players would benefit from injury prevention programs due to increased DKV during game scenarios, while hip abductor and external rotator neuromuscular training may be beneficial for players who have moderate and severe DKV during single-leg squat under non-fatigued scenarios.With the growth of global fossil-based resource consumption and the environmental concern, there is an urgent need to develop sustainable and environmentally friendly materials, which exhibit promising properties and could maintain an acceptable level of performance to substitute the petroleum-based ones. As elite nanomaterials, cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) derived from natural renewable resources, exhibit excellent physicochemical properties, biodegradability and biocompatibility and have attracted tremendous interest nowadays. Their combination with other nanomaterials such as graphene-based materials (GNM) has been revealed to be useful and generated new hybrid materials with fascinating physicochemical characteristics and performances. In this context, the review presented herein describes the quickly growing field of a new emerging generation of CNC/GNM hybrids, with a focus on strategies for their preparation and most relevant achievements. These hybrids showed great promise in a wide range of applications such as separation, energy storage, electronic, optic, biomedical, catalysis and food packaging. Some basic concepts and general background on the preparation of CNC and GNM as well as their key features are provided ahead.The interest in anthocyanins used in food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries has increased the research in order to improve their stability while maintaining bioactivity. In this work, cyanidin-3-glucoside lauryl ester (Cy3glc-C12) was enzymatically synthesized, using Novozym 435 as a catalyst, as well as to obtain a kinetic model for the bioprocess. Its liposolubility, UV-VIS absorbance property, thermostability, and potential proliferative effect on intestinal probiotics were also studied. The maximum conversion yield (68.7 ± 2.1%) was obtained with a molar ratio (substratedonor) of 156, 435 16.5 g/L Novozym, temperature of 56 °C, and a time of 28 h via the acylation occurred at 6''-OH position of the glucoside. The kinetics of the reaction is consistent with a ping-pong bi-bi mechanism and the parameters of the respective kinetic equations are reported. Compared with native Cy3glc, the liposolubility, pH resistivity and thermostability of Cy3glc-C12 were significantly improved. The growth kinetics of Bifidobacteria and Lactobacillus was established based on the Logistic equation, and Cy3glc-C12 could promote their proliferation especially during the logarithmic growth, in which lower pH and more bacteria population were found compared with those of media without anthocyanins. This research provided a reference for the industrial production of Cy3glc-C12 and extended its application to natural products in lipophilic systems.In this work, magnesium oxychloride cement (MOC) was used to realize the resource use of foundry dust (FD). Portland cement (PC)-based superhydrophobic coating was prepared on the surface of FD/MOC composite to improve the water resistance of the composite. First, the FD/MOC composites with different contents of FD were prepared. Nicotinamide Riboside chemical structure The phase structure of the composite was analyzed using X-ray diffraction (XRD). The microstructure of the cross-section and surface of the composite was observed using field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM). The mechanical properties of the FD/MOC composites with different FD contents at different ages were tested and analyzed. Secondly, the superhydrophobic coating was prepared on the surface of MOC composite using silane/siloxane aqueous emulsion as the hydrophobic modifier, PC as the matrix and water as the solvent. The microstructure and chemical composition of the PC-based superhydrophobic coating were tested and analyzed. The results show that FD can significantly improve the early strength of the FD/MOC composite. The 28-day compressive strength of the FD/MOC composite decreases with increasing FD content. When the FD content is 30%, the 28-day compressive strength of the FD/MOC composite is as high as 75.68 MPa. Superhydrophobic coating can effectively improve the water resistance of the FD/MOC composite. The softening coefficient of the FD/MOC composite without superhydrophobic coating is less than 0.26, while that of the composite modified by superhydrophobic coating is greater than 0.81.The standard model of multiple myeloma (MM) relies on genetic instability in the normal counterparts of MM cells. MM-induced lytic bone lesions are considered as end organ damages. However, bone is a tissue of significance in MM and bone changes could be at the origin/facilitate the emergence of MM. We propose the tissue disruption-induced cell stochasticity (TiDiS) theory for MM oncogenesis that integrates disruption of the microenvironment, differentiation, and genetic alterations. It starts with the observation that the bone marrow endosteal niche controls differentiation. As decrease in cellular stochasticity occurs thanks to cellular interactions in differentiating cells, the initiating role of bone disruption would be in the increase of cellular stochasticity. Thus, in the context of polyclonal activation of B cells, memory B cells and plasmablasts would compete for localizing in endosteal niches with the risk that some cells cannot fully differentiate if they cannot reside in the niche because of a disrupted microenvironment. Therefore, they would remain in an unstable state with residual proliferation, with the risk that subclones may transform into malignant cells. Finally, diagnostic and therapeutic perspectives are provided.The Internet of Things (IoT) brings plenty of opportunities to enhance society's activities, from improving a factory's production chain to facilitating people's household tasks. However, it has also brought new security breaches, compromising privacy and authenticity. IoT devices are vulnerable to being accessed from the Internet; they lack sufficient resources to face cyber-attack threats. Keeping a balance between access control and the devices' resource consumption has become one of the highest priorities of IoT research. In this paper, we evaluate an access control architecture based on the IAACaaS (IoT application-Scoped Access Control as a Service) model with the aim of protecting IoT devices that communicate using the Publish/Subscribe pattern. IAACaaS is based on the OAuth 2.0 authorization framework, which externalizes the identity and access control infrastructure of applications. In our evaluation, we implement the model using FIWARE Generic Enablers and deploy them for a smart buildings use case with a wireless communication.
