Background: The original version of Victorian Institute of Sport Assessment-Patella Questionnaire (VISA-P) is developed in English, and aimed to assess the severity of patellar tendinopathy symptoms. Before used in China, it should be translated to Chinese version.
Objectives: Our aim is to make a translation/cross-culturally adaption for the VISA-P into simplified Chinese version (VISA-PC). And primarily validate the VISA-PC in Chinese speaking population.
Methods: The translation process of VISA-P questionnaire into simplified Chinese version (VISP-PC) followed the International recognized guideline. Cross-cultural adaptation was carried out with a clinical measurement study. A total of 128 projects which consisted 33 healthy students, 39 patients with patellar tendinopathy and 56 military students (receive military training as at-risk population) were included into this study. Internal consistency was evaluated with Cronbach's alpha, and test-retest reliability was assessed with intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs). Construct validity and floor and ceiling effects were also tested.
Results: The scores were 95.84 ± 5.97 of healthy group, 91.87 ± 9.03 of at-risk group, 62.49 ± 11.39 of pathological group. There is no ceiling and floor effect of VISA-PC. The Cronbach's alpha (0.895) and ICC (0.986) values showed good internal consistency and reliability. There were high correlations between VISA-PC and Kujala patellofemoral score (r = 0.721). VISA-PC score also had good correlation with the relevant SF-36 items.
Conclusion: The VISA-PC was well translated into simplified Chinese version (VISA-PC), which is reliable and valid for Chinese-speaking patients with patellar tendinopathy.

University of California San Francisco School of Nursing, San Francisco, CA, USA.
Background: Socio-cultural and language-appropriate study materials and instruments are critical for accurate assessment of cognitive function in people from diverse backgrounds. Most research uses cognitive tests based on Western, industrialized, English-speaking cultures and may not reflect global experiences. The purpose of this study was to describe the translations of study materials and cultural adaptations that were developed for the Asian Cohort for Alzheimer's Disease (ACAD).

Background: Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) populations are underrepresented in Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD) research, despite being the fastest growing racial group in the United States. The Collaborative Approach for AANHPI Research and Education (CARE) registry aims to create a sustainable research recruitment source to address this need.
Method: Participants can enroll online, by phone, or in-person by completing an enrollment survey in English, Chinese (Simplified/Traditional), Hindi, Korean, Samoan, or Vietnamese.
A novel and sensitive trefoil-structured biosensor based on nanoporous gold for simultaneous determination of microRNA-21 and microRNA-16.

Although electrochemical biosensors have been developed to detect multiple microRNAs (miRNAs) simultaneously through loading different capture probes, high surface-induced perturbation and competition among probes have reduced the detection sensitivity. To address these challenges, a trefoil DNA capture probe (TDCP) was designed for microRNA-21 (miR-21) and microRNA-16 (miR-16) detection simultaneously. The TDCP exhibits a stable structure, low spatial resistance, and integral rigidity, which decreases high surface-induced perturbations and competition to improve the accessibility of the target miRNA.

Due to high binding energy and extremely short diffusion distance of Frenkel excitons in common organic semiconductors at early stage, mechanism of interface charge transfer-mediated free carrier generation has dominated the development of bulk heterojunction (BHJ) organic solar cells (OSCs). However, considering the advancements in materials and device performance, it is necessary to reexamine the photoelectric conversion in current-stage efficient OSCs. Here, we propose that the conjugated materials with specific three-dimensional donor-acceptor conjugated packing potentially exhibit distinctive charge photogeneration mechanism, which spontaneously split Wannier-Mott excitons to free carriers in pure phases.

We systematically investigate the magnetization and thermodynamic responses associated with antiferromagnetic (AFM) transitions in single crystals of the magnetic semiconductor Eu3InAs3. The linear thermal expansion measurements around the AFM transition temperatures, TN1 and TN2, indicate an expansion along the a axis and contraction along the b and c axes. The calculated ∆V/V(T) shows a continuous change at TN, indicating a second-order magnetic phase transition.
