Smoother: on-the-fly processing of interactome data using prefix sums.

Nucleic acid interactome data, such as chromosome conformation capture data and RNA-DNA interactome data, are currently analyzed via pipelines that must be rerun for each new parameter set. A more dynamic approach is desirable since the optimal parameter set is commonly unknown ahead of time and rerunning pipelines is a time-consuming process. We have developed an approach fast enough to process interactome data on-the-fly using a sparse prefix sum index. With this index, we created Smoother, a flexible, multifeatured visualization and analysis tool that allows interactive filtering, e.g. by mapping quality, almost instant comparisons between different normalization approaches, e.g. iterative correction, and ploidy correction. Further, Smoother can overlay other sequencing data or genomic annotations, compare different samples, and perform virtual 4C analysis. Smoother permits a novel way to interact with and explore interactome data, fostering comprehensive, high-quality data analysis.

A genetically encoded sensor for in vivo imaging of orexin neuropeptides.

Orexins (also called hypocretins) are hypothalamic neuropeptides that carry out essential functions in the central nervous system; however, little is known about their release and range of action in vivo owing to the limited resolution of current detection technologies. Here we developed a genetically encoded orexin sensor (OxLight1) based on the engineering of circularly permutated green fluorescent protein into the human type-2 orexin receptor. In mice OxLight1 detects optogenetically evoked release of endogenous orexins in vivo with high sensitivity. Photometry recordings of OxLight1 in mice show rapid orexin release associated with spontaneous running behavior, acute stress and sleep-to-wake transitions in different brain areas. Moreover, two-photon imaging of OxLight1 reveals orexin release in layer 2/3 of the mouse somatosensory cortex during emergence from anesthesia. Thus, OxLight1 enables sensitive and direct optical detection of orexin neuropeptides with high spatiotemporal resolution in living animals.

Impact of Comorbid Sleep-Disordered Breathing and Atrial Fibrillation on the Long-Term Outcome After Ischemic Stroke.

BACKGROUND: Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) and atrial fibrillation (AF) are highly prevalent in patients with stroke and are recognized as independent risk factors for stroke. Little is known about the impact of comorbid SDB and AF on long-term outcomes after stroke. METHODS: In this prospective cohort study, 353 patients with acute ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attacks were analyzed. Patients were screened for SDB by respiratory polygraphy during acute hospitalization. Screening for AF was performed using a 7-day ECG up to 3× in the first 6 months. Follow-up visits were scheduled at 1, 3, 12, 24, and 36 months poststroke. Cox regression models adjusted for various factors (age, sex, body mass index, hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, and heart failure) were used to assess the impact of comorbid SDB and AF on subsequent death or cerebro-cardiovascular events. RESULTS: Among 353 patients (299 ischemic stroke and 54 transient ischemic attacks), median age, 67 (interquartile range, 57-74) years with 63% males. Moderate-to-severe SDB (apnea-hypopnea index score, ≥15/h) was present in 118 (33.4%) patients. Among the 56 (15.9%) patients with AF, 28 had comorbid moderate-to-severe SDB and AF. Over 36 months, there were 12 deaths and 67 recurrent cerebro-cardiovascular events. Patients with comorbid moderate-to-severe SDB and AF had a higher risk of subsequent death or cerebro-cardiovascular events compared with those with only moderate-to-severe SDB without AF (hazard ratio, 2.49 [95% CI, 1.18-5.24]) and to those without moderate-to-severe SDB or AF (hazard ratio, 2.25 [95% CI, 1.12-4.50]). However, no significant difference was found between the comorbid moderate-to-severe SDB and AF group and the group with only AF without moderate-to-severe SDB (hazard ratio, 1.64 [95% CI, 0.62-4.36]). CONCLUSIONS: Comorbid moderate-to-severe SDB and AF significantly increase the risk of long-term mortality or recurrent cerebro-cardiovascular events after acute ischemic stroke. Considering both conditions as cumulative and modifiable cerebro-cardiovascular risk factors is of interest for the management of acute stroke.

Nanoprinted microstructure-assisted light incoupling into high-numerical aperture multimode fibers.

The coupling of light into optical fibers is limited by the numerical aperture (NA). Here, we show that large-area polymer axial-symmetric microstructures printed on silica multimode fibers improve their incoupling performance by two to three orders of magnitude beyond the numerical aperture limit. A ray-optical mathematical model describing the impact of the grating-assisted light coupling complements the experimental investigation. This study clearly demonstrates the improvement of incoupling performance by nanoprinting microstructures on fibers, opening new horizons, to the best of our knowledge, for multimode fiber applications in life sciences, quantum technologies, and "lab-on-fiber" devices.

Fiber-interfaced hollow-core light cage: a platform for on-fiber-integrated waveguides.

Here, we demonstrate the realization of hollow-core light cages (LCs) on commercial step-index fibers using 3D nanoprinting, resulting in fully fiber-integrated devices. Two different light cage geometries with record-high aspect ratio strands and unique sidewise access to the core have been implemented, exhibiting excellent optical and mechanical properties. These achievements are based on the use of 3D nanoprinting to fabricate light cages and stabilize them with customized support elements. Overall, this approach results in novel, to the best of our knowledge, fiber-interfaced hollow-core devices that combine several advantages in a lab-on-a-fiber platform that is particularly useful for diffusion-related applications in environmental sciences, nanosciences, and quantum technologies.

Early sleep apnea treatment in stroke (eSATIS) - a multicentre, randomised controlled, rater-blinded, clinical trial: The association of post-stroke cognition with sleep-disordered breathing and its treatment.

Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) is linked to cognitive dysfunction. Although SDB is common in stroke patients, the impact of SDB and its early treatment on cognitive functioning after stroke remains poorly investigated. Therefore, we explored the association between SDB and post-stroke cognitive functioning, including the impact of early SDB treatment with adaptive servo-ventilation (ASV) on cognitive recovery from acute event to 3 months post-stroke. We used data from two studies, which included ischaemic stroke patients (n = 131) and no-stroke controls (n = 37) without SDB (apnea-hypopnea index, AHI <5/h) and with SDB (AHI≥20/h). Cognitive functioning was assessed within 7 days and 3 months post-stroke in stroke patients, or at study inclusion in no-stroke control group, respectively. Stroke patients with SDB were randomized to ASV treatment (ASV+) or usual care (ASV-). Linear regression adjusted for main confounders assessed the impact of SDB and its treatment on cognitive recovery. The intention-to-treat analysis did not show significant associations of SDB ASV+ (n = 30) versus SDB ASV- (n = 29) with cognitive recovery. In an exploratory subanalysis, compliant SDB ASV+ (n = 14) versus SDB ASV- showed improvements with ASV in visual memory and cognitive flexibility. Combining the stroke and non-stroke datasets, SDB (n = 85) versus no-SDB (n = 83) was associated with deficits in visual memory and response inhibition independently of stroke. SDB ASV- versus no-SDB (n = 51) was associated with less improvement in visual memory. There was no substantial evidence for benefits of intention-to-treat ASV on cognitive recovery. Exploratory analysis indicated that compliant ASV treatment could benefit visual memory and cognitive flexibility, whereas untreated SDB could contribute to a poor recovery of visual memory.

International Swiss Primary Hypersomnolence and Narcolepsy Cohort Study (iSPHYNCS): the impact of psychiatric comorbidities on daily life in central disorders of hypersomnolence-a vicious circle.

Presence of psychiatric comorbidities is well documented in narcolepsy type-1 (NT1) but there are limited data on patients with 'other central disorders of hypersomnolence' (OCH). This study aimed to investigate frequency of psychiatric comorbidities in patients with NT1 and OCH, and to evaluate their impact on quality of life and sleep as an additive factor in combination with hypersomnolence-related symptoms. This study was conducted within the scope of the international Swiss Primary Hypersomnolence and Narcolepsy Cohort Study (iSPHYNCS), which aims to find new biomarkers in central disorders of hypersomnolence (CDH). Study participants underwent Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview and completed questionnaires related to quality of life and sleep. Comparative analysis was conducted to investigate group differences, and multivariable regression models were used to reveal the impact of psychiatric comorbidities. Among a total of 90 patients, 26 were diagnosed with NT1 and 64 with OCH. In all, 38 patients showed at least one psychiatric disorder, 27% of NT1 and 48% of OCH, with female dominance (50% in females versus 23% in males, p < 0.02). Major depressive episodes (n = 29) were most common, followed by suicidality (n = 13). Patients with a psychiatric diagnosis were more fatigued (ß = 0.70, p < 0.05), apathic (ß = -5.41, p < 0.002), had more disturbed sleep (ß = 0.55, p < 0.02), worse sleep (ß = 1.89, p < 0.001) and general health (ß = -12.55, p < 0.02) quality. Comorbid psychiatric disorders are frequent in patients with CDH and worsen the impact of hypersomnolence-related symptoms on daily activities regardless of the type of CDH. Psychiatric comorbidities may create a vicious circle with fatigue and avoidance of physical activities, which aggravates hypersomnolence-related symptoms.

Daytime sleepiness and BMI exhibit gender and age differences in patients with central disorders of hypersomnolence.

The aim of the present study was to examine gender and age-specific effects on subjective daytime sleepiness (as measured by the Epworth Sleepiness Scale), body weight and eating behaviour in patients with central disorders of hypersomnolence. Based on the European Narcolepsy Network database, we compared 1035 patients with narcolepsy type I and 505 patients with other central disorders of hypersomnolence ("narcoleptic borderland"), including narcolepsy type II (N = 308) and idiopathic hypersomnia (N = 174), using logistic regression and general linear models. In the entire study population, the Epworth Sleepiness Scale was higher in women (N = 735, mean age = 30 years, mean Epworth Sleepiness Scale = 16.6 ± SD 3.9) than in men (N = 805, mean age = 32 years, mean Epworth Sleepiness Scale = 15.8 ± SD 4.4). In women with narcolepsy type I (N = 475), both Epworth Sleepiness Scale and body mass index increased in parallel with age. In women of the narcoleptic borderland (N = 260), the Epworth Sleepiness Scale markedly peaked in their early 30s, while body mass index only started to rise at that age. This rise in body mass index following the Epworth Sleepiness Scale peak cannot be explained by sleepiness-induced uncontrolled eating, as self-reported uncontrolled eating was negatively associated with the Epworth Sleepiness Scale in this group. We propose that the narcoleptic borderland harbours a unique cluster of women in their fertile years with an unexplored aetiology requiring further investigation towards tailored interventions.

Disentangling the complex landscape of sleep-wake disorders with data-driven phenotyping: A study of the Bernese center.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The diagnosis of sleep-wake disorders (SWDs) is challenging because of the existence of only few accurate biomarkers and the frequent coexistence of multiple SWDs and/or other comorbidities. The aim of this study was to assess in a large cohort of well-characterized SWD patients the potential of a data-driven approach for the identification of SWDs. METHODS: We included 6958 patients from the Bernese Sleep Registry and 300 variables/biomarkers including questionnaires, results of polysomnography/vigilance tests, and final clinical diagnoses. A pipeline, based on machine learning, was created to extract and cluster the clinical data. Our analysis was performed on three cohorts: patients with central disorders of hypersomnolence (CDHs), a full cohort of patients with SWDs, and a clean cohort without coexisting SWDs. RESULTS: A first analysis focused on the cohort of patients with CDHs and revealed four patient clusters: two clusters for narcolepsy type 1 (NT1) but not for narcolepsy type 2 or idiopathic hypersomnia. In the full cohort of SWDs, nine clusters were found: four contained patients with obstructive and central sleep apnea syndrome, one with NT1, and four with intermixed SWDs. In the cohort of patients without coexisting SWDs, an additional cluster of patients with chronic insomnia disorder was identified. CONCLUSIONS: This study confirms the existence of clear clusters of NT1 in CDHs, but mainly intermixed groups in the full spectrum of SWDs, with the exception of sleep apnea syndromes and NT1. New biomarkers are needed for better phenotyping and diagnosis of SWDs.

The German guideline "Obesity in pregnancy": comparison with the international approach.

BACKGROUND: Obesity is an increasing problem, even in young women of reproductive age. Obesity has a negative impact on conception, the course of pregnancy, and neonatal outcomes. Caring for obese pregnant women has becoming an important aspect of standard prenatal care. The Guideline "Obesity and Pregnancy" of the German Society of Gynecology and Obstetrics aims to create evidence-based recommendations which can be used to improve the care of obese pregnant women. As obesity is a worldwide problem, many societies for obstetrics and gynecology have created national guidelines. METHODS: We reviewed the following guidelines for obesity and pregnancy: American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) 2021, Royal College of Obstetrics and Gynecology (RCOG) 2018; AND Society of Obstetricians and Gynecologists of Canada (SOGC) 2019. These guidelines were compared to the German guideline. RESULTS: There are some variations between the guidelines, though no major contradictions exist. Disparities were found regarding the recommendations for substitution of high folic acid and Vitamin D. Furthermore, the recommended time for screening for gestational diabetes and the methods to control fetal growth differ between the guidelines. Regarding place of birth, RCOG allows delivery in midwifery-led units in the absence of other high-risk circumstances, while others request facility of care by neonatologists and medical staff trained in care of obese women. Induction of labor at term due to increased risk of intrauterine demise is mostly limited to women with a body mass index of 40 kg/m2. Only one guideline considers induction of all obese women. For intrapartum management, the majority allows tolerating of longer labor times to delivery if fetal monitoring is sufficient and fetal stress is excluded. Special encouragement of breastfeeding and healthy lifestyle is commonly recommended; only in the Canadian guideline, postpartum depression evaluation is requested due to the overall high prevalence of depression and anxiety in obese women. CONCLUSION: All guidelines consider pregnancies in obese women as high-risk pregnancies and emphasize the need for preconception counseling. There are special needs in pregnancy care and in the intrapartum and postpartum management to be observed.

Obesity in prenatal medicine: a game changer?

Obesity is recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO) as a disease in its own right. Moreover, obesity is an increasingly concerning public health issue across the world and its prevalence is rising amongst women of reproductive age. The fertility of over-weight and obese women is reduced and they experience a higher rate of miscarriage. In pregnant women obesity not only increases the risk of antenatal complications, such as preeclampsia and gestational diabetes, but also fetal abnormalities, and consequently the overall feto-maternal mortality. Ultrasound is one of the most valuable methods to predict and evaluate pregnancy complications. However, in overweight and obese pregnant women, the ultrasound examination is met with several challenges, mainly due to an impaired acoustic window. Overall obesity in pregnancy poses special challenges and constraints to the antenatal care and increases the rate of pregnancy complications, as well as complications later in life for the mother and child.

3D-nanoprinted on-chip antiresonant waveguide with hollow core and microgaps for integrated optofluidic spectroscopy.

Here, we unlock the properties of the recently introduced on-chip hollow-core microgap waveguide in the context of optofluidics which allows for intense light-water interaction over long lengths with fast response times. The nanoprinted waveguide operates by the anti-resonance effect in the visible and near-infrared domain and includes a hollow core with defined gaps every 176 µm. The spectroscopic capabilities are demonstrated by various absorption-related experiments, showing that the Beer-Lambert law can be applied without any modification. In addition to revealing key performance parameters, time-resolved experiments showed a decisive improvement in diffusion times resulting from the lateral access provided by the microgaps. Overall, the microgap waveguide represents a pathway for on-chip spectroscopy in aqueous environments.

Optical heating-induced spectral tuning of supercontinuum generation in liquid core fibers using multiwall carbon nanotubes.

In this work, we demonstrate the optical heating modulation of soliton-based supercontinuum generation through the employment of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MW-CNTs) acting as fast and efficient heat generators. By utilizing highly dispersion-sensitive liquid-core fibers in combination with MW-CNTs coated to the outer wall of the fiber, spectral tuning of dispersive waves with response times below one second via exploiting the strong thermo-optic response of the core liquid was achieved. Local illumination of the MW-CNTs coated fiber at selected points allowed modulation of the waveguide dispersion, thus controlling the soliton fission process. Experimentally, a spectral shift of the two dispersive waves towards the region of anomalous dispersion was observed at increasing temperatures. The presented tuning concept shows great potential in the context of nonlinear photonics, as complex and dynamically reconfigurable dispersion profiles can be generated by using structured light fields. This allows investigating nonlinear frequency conversion processes under unconventional conditions, and realizing nonlinear light sources that are reconfigurable quickly.

Ultrafast supercontinuum generation in halomethane-filled liquid-core fibers.

Here, we demonstrate the properties of bromotrichloromethane (CBrCl3) in the context of ultrafast supercontinuum generation in liquid-core fibers. Broadband interferometric and spectroscopic measurements of liquids and fibers indicate suitable optical properties of this halomethane for near-IR supercontinuum generation, which were confirmed in corresponding experiments using ultrashort pulses. The associated simulations showed consistent broadband power redistributions, thus confirming that this halomethane is a suitable candidate for ultrafast nonlinear frequency conversion in liquid-core fibers. It uniquely combines the advantages of an inorganic, i.e., CH-free, material with a non-vanishing hyperpolarizability, allowing to anticipate an integration of second-order nonlinearity into the fiber.

REM sleep and muscle atonia in brainstem stroke: A quantitative polysomnographic and lesion analysis study.

Important brainstem regions are involved in the regulation of rapid eye movement sleep. We hypothesized that brainstem stroke is associated with dysregulated rapid eye movement sleep and related muscle activity. We compared quantitative/qualitative polysomnography features of rapid eye movement sleep and muscle activity (any, phasic, tonic) between 15 patients with brainstem stroke (N = 46 rapid eye movement periods), 16 patients with lacunar/non-brainstem stroke (N = 40 rapid eye movement periods), 15 healthy controls (N = 62 rapid eye movement periods), and patients with Parkinson's disease and polysomnography-confirmed rapid eye movement sleep behaviour disorder. Further, in the brainstem group, we performed a magnetic resonance imaging-based lesion overlap analysis. The mean ratio of muscle activity to rapid eye movement sleep epoch in the brainstem group ("any" muscle activity 0.09 ± 0.15; phasic muscle activity 0.08 ± 0.14) was significantly lower than in the lacunar group ("any" muscle activity 0.17 ± 0.2, p < 0.05; phasic muscle activity 0.16 ± 0.19, p < 0.05), and also lower than in the control group ("any" muscle activity 0.15 ± 0.17, p < 0.05). Magnetic resonance imaging-based lesion analysis indicated an area of maximum overlap in the medioventral pontine region for patients with reduced phasic muscle activity index. For all groups, mean values of muscle activity were significantly lower than in the patients with Parkinson's disease and polysomnography-confirmed REM sleep behaviour disorder group ("any" activity 0.51 ± 0.26, p < 0.0001 for all groups; phasic muscle activity 0.42 ± 0.21, p < 0.0001 for all groups). For the tonic muscle activity in the mentalis muscle, no significant differences were found between the groups. In the brainstem group, contrary to the lacunar and the control groups, "any" muscle activity index during rapid eye movement sleep was significantly reduced after the third rapid eye movement sleep phase. This study reports on the impact of brainstem stroke on rapid eye movement atonia features in a human cohort. Our findings highlight the important role of the human brainstem, in particular the medioventral pontine regions, in the regulation of phasic muscle activity during rapid eye movement sleep and the ultradian distribution of rapid eye movement-related muscle activity.

Multiple sleep-wake disturbances after stroke predict an increased risk of cardio-cerebrovascular events or death: A prospective cohort study.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Contradictory evidence on the impact of single sleep-wake-disturbances (SWD), such as sleep-disorderd breating (SDB) or insomnia, in patients with stroke, on the risk of subsequent cardio- and cerebrovascular events (CCE) and death, exists. Very recent studies in the general population suggest that the presence of multiple SWD increases cardio-cerebrovascular risk. Hence, the aim of this study was to asssess whether a novel score capturing the burden of multiple SWD, a so called "sleep burden index", is predictive for subsequent CCE including death in a prospectively followed cohort of stroke patients. METHODS: Patients with acute ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) were prospectively recruited. Four SWD were analyzed: (i) SDB with respirography; (ii) insomnia (defined using the insomnia severity index [ISI]); (iii) restless legs syndrome (RLS; defined using the International RLS Study Group rating scale); and (iv) self-estimated sleep duration at 1 and 3 months. A "sleep burden index", calculated using the mean of z-transformed values from assessments of these four SWD, was created. The occurrence of CCE was recorded over a mean ± standard deviation (SD) follow-up of 3.2 ± 0.3 years. RESULTS: We assessed 437 patients (87% ischemic stroke, 13% TIA, 64% males) with a mean ± SD age of 65.1 ± 13.0 years. SDB (respiratory event index ≥ 5/h) was present in 66.2% of these patients. Insomnia (ISI ≥ 10), RLS and extreme sleep duration affected 26.2%, 6.4% and 13.7% of the patients 3 months post-stroke. Seventy out of the 437 patients (16%) had at least one CCE during the follow-up. The sleep burden index was associated with a higher risk for subsequent CCE, including death (odds ratio 1.80 per index unit, 95% confidence interval 1.19-2.72; p = 0.0056). CONCLUSION: The presence of multiple SWDs constitutes a risk for subsequent CCE (including death) within the first 3 years following stroke. Larger systematic studies should assess the utility of the sleep burden index for patients' risk stratification in clinical practice.

Nanoparticle Tracking in Single-Antiresonant-Element Fiber for High-Precision Size Distribution Analysis of Mono- and Polydisperse Samples.

Accurate determination of the size distribution of nanoparticle ensembles remains a challenge in nanotechnology-related applications due to the limitations of established methods. Here, a microstructured fiber-assisted nanoparticle tracking analysis (FaNTA) realization is introduced that breaks existing limitations through the recording of exceptionally long trajectories of rapidly diffusing polydisperse nanoparticles, resulting in excellent sizing precision and unprecedented separation capabilities of bimodal nanoparticle mixtures. An effective-single-mode antiresonant-element fiber allows to efficiently confine nanoparticles in a light-guiding microchannel and individually track them over more than 1000 frames, while aberration-free imaging is experimentally confirmed by cross-correlation analysis. Unique features of the approach are (i) the highly precise determination of the size distribution of monodisperse nanoparticle ensembles (only 7% coefficient of variation) and (ii) the accurate characterization of individual components in a bimodal mixture with very close mean diameters, both experimentally demonstrated for polymer nanospheres. The outstanding performance of the FaNTA realization can be quantified by introducing a new model for the bimodal separation index. Since FaNTA is applicable to all types of nano-objects down to sub-20 nm diameters, the method will improve the precision standard of mono- and polydisperse nanoparticle samples such as nano-plastics or extracellular vesicles.

Spectral tailoring of photon pairs from microstructured suspended-core optical fibers with liquid-filled nanochannels.

We theoretically study the generation of photon pairs via spontaneous four-wave mixing (SFWM) in a liquid-filled microstructured suspended-core optical fiber. We show that it is possible to control the wavelength, group velocity, and bandwidths of the two-photon states. Our proposed fiber structure shows a large number of degrees of freedom to engineer the two-photon state. Here, we focus on the factorable state, which shows no spectral correlation in the two-photon components of the state, and allows the heralding of a single-photon pure state without the need for spectral post-filtering.

Interpreting light guidance in antiresonant and photonic bandgap waveguides and fibers by light scattering: analytical model and ultra-low guidance.

Here, we introduce a quasi-analytic model that allows studying mode formation in low refractive index core waveguides through solely focusing on the cladding properties. The model isolates the reflection properties of the cladding from the modes via correlating the complex amplitude reflection coefficient of the cladding to the complex effective index of the fundamental core mode. The relevance and validity of the model are demonstrated by considering a single-ring anti-resonant fiber, revealing unexpected situations of exceptionally low loss. Our model explains mode formation by light scattering, which conceptually provides deep insights into the relevant physics.

Colorimetric Biosensors Based on Polymer/Gold Hybrid Nanoparticles: Topological Effects of the Polymer Coating.

Gold nanoparticles decorated with analyte recognition units can form the basis of colorimetric (bio)sensors. The presentation of those recognition units may play a critical role in determining sensor sensitivity. Herein, we use a model system to investigate the effect of the architecture of a polymeric linker that connects gold nanoparticles with the recognition units. Our results show that the number of the latter that can be adsorbed during the assembly of the colorimetric sensors depends on the linker topology. We also show that this may lead to substantial differences in colorimetric sensor performance, particularly in situations in which the interactions with the analyte are comparably weak. Finally, we discuss design principles for efficient colorimetric sensor materials based on our findings.
