This program aims to improve the quality of life and pain in breast cancer survivors. For this purpose, combines two tools (PNE and GEM) that have shown efficacy in other populations with chronic pain1-12. This program is created based on the biopsychosocial13 model and the focused-person14 attendance and tries to empower women regard to their pain management and their health. The program will be applied in a group format., [Introduction] Cancer-related chronic pain is an important sequelae that damages the quality of life of breast cancer survivors. Pain neuroscience education and graded exposure to movement are therapeutic tools that have been shown to be effective in the management of chronic pain in other populations. However, there are no previous studies that combine them after breast cancer., [Objective] To evaluate the effectiveness of an online physiotherapy focused-person program which combines pain neuroscience education and graded exposure to movement for quality of life improvement in breast cancer survivors., [Methodology] This protocol is a randomized controlled trial with a sample size of 40 breast cancer survivors with pain in the last 6 months. Participants will be allocated to the experimental or control group using a fixed size block randomization method. The evaluator and statistician will be blinded to participant allocation. Participants in the experimental group will receive a 12-week intervention based on pain neuroscience education and therapeutic yoga as a graded exposure to movement exercise; participants in the control group will continue with their usual cancer-related symptoms care. Both groups will receive an education booklet. The main outcome will be quality of life, measured by the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy – Breast (FACT–B+4); secondary, four outcomes related to pain experience (catastrophising, self-efficacy, kinesiophobia and fear-avoidance behaviors) will be also assessed. All variables will be assessed by two blinded evaluators at four timepoints. A mixed-model analyses of variance ANOVA (2 × 4) will be used to study the effects of the treatment on the dependent variables. All statistical tests will be performed considering a confidence interval of 95%. SPSS program will be used for the data analysis., [Discussion] This research is expected to contribute to breast cancer rehabilitation field. The proposed intervention is also expected to improve self-care skills related to chronic pain and to empower women regarding the management of their symptoms and quality of life., [Clinical trial registration] https://clinicaltrials.gov/, NCT04965909., Peer reviewed

The resistance of an ordered 3D-Bi2Te3 nanowire nanonetwork was studied at low temperatures. Below 50 K the increase in resistance was found to be compatible with the Anderson model for localization, considering that conduction takes place in individual parallel channels across the whole sample. Angle-dependent magnetoresistance measurements showed a distinctive weak antilocalization characteristic with a double feature that we could associate with transport along two perpendicular directions, dictated by the spatial arrangement of the nanowires. The coherence length obtained from the Hikami–Larkin–Nagaoka model was about 700 nm across transversal nanowires, which corresponded to approximately 10 nanowire junctions. Along the individual nanowires, the coherence length was greatly reduced to about 100 nm. The observed localization effects could be the reason for the enhancement of the Seebeck coefficient observed in the 3D-Bi2Te3 nanowire nanonetwork compared to individual nanowires., No

C-S-H and C-S-Ag-H gel solutions were analysed by UV/Vis/NIR spectroscopy with a Shimadzu 3600 UV/Vis/NIR spectrometer equipped with 2H and Wlamps, a photomultiplier (UV/Vis), and a InGaAs and a PbS (NIR) detectors. The baseline reference sample was prepared with 1000 µL of MilliQ water. The samples were diluted 1:19 (50 μL of gel solution to 950 μL of of MilliQ water) and the measurements were recorded in the range of 190–850 nm, with slow scan speed. The sampling interval and the slit width were 0.5 nm and 1 nm, respectively. For the 29Si NMR analysis of dried C-S-H and C-S-Ag-H, a Bruker AV-400 (9.4 T and νR of 4 kHz) (Bruker, Germany) NMR spectrometer was used in the following conditions: pulse width of 7 μs and relaxation delay of 60 s with typically 3000 scans. The 29Si chemical shifts were determined relative to tetramethylsilane. The spectra were treated for band deconvolution into Gaussian peaks and fitted using Origin 2022 software. The micro-Raman spectra were carried out on pressed pellets of the samples with a Raman microscope Renishaw RM1000 (Renishaw, Wotton-under-Endge, UK) equipped with a Leica microscope and an electrically refrigerated CCD camera. Laser excitation line was provided by a He:Ne (633 nm wavelength, 25 mW output power with approximately 2 mW at the sample). The spectra were obtained using a 50× magnification objective, a spectral resolution of 4 cm−1, a 10 s exposure time, 5 accumulations, and 2mW laser power per spectra in the range of 2000–100 cm−1 in order to increase signal/noise ratio. The frequencies were calibrated with silicon at 520 cm−1. X-ray photoelectron (XP) and SERS spectra were taken on pressed C-S-Ag-H pellets before and after irradiation at 355 nm, and 532 nm (and of the reference C-S-H pellet). For the former technique, the analysis was performed under a base pressure lower than 7.5 · 10−9 Torr using a PHOIBOS-150 (Specs) electron analyzer, Mg Kα radiation and a constant pass energy of 100 eV and 20 eV for the wide and narrow scans, respectively. The pellets were fixed to the sample holder using double-sided conductive carbon tape to ensure a good conductivity and the X-ray gun was used at 100 W power in order to avoid any possible sample degradation induced by the X-ray irradiation. The binding energy scale was referenced to the main C 1s signal of the adventitious carbon contamination layer which was set at 284.8 eV. All the spectra were fitted using pseudo-Voigt lines (30 % Gaussian/70 % Lorentzian) and a Shirley-type background. For the SERS analysis, the same experimental conditions were used as for obtaining the Raman spectra using Rhodamine B as a probe molecule (an aliquot of 2 µl of a 5 × 10−6 M aqueous solution was dropped on the irradiated and on the non-irradiated silver-containing pellets). Additionally, different reference RhB spectra were acquired on hydroxylamine-reduced silver nanoparticles (NPs), 2 µl dropped on top of both C-S-H and C-S-Ag-H pellets for the comparison of the SERS activities. More details about samples preparation and irradiation conditions are available in Materials folder., Data life: 2024- (unlimited validity), his is the experimental dataset used in the paper Applied Surface Science, 662: 160107 (2024) (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apsusc.2024.160107) in which a novel Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) sensor based on a nanostructured substrate, calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H), the main hydration product of Portland cement, was synthetized. The procedure involves first the incorporation of silver within the nanostructure of the gel (C-S-Ag-H) and second the modification of the surface of pellets of the newly synthesized material by laser irradiation at 532 nm or 355 nm. This data set includes the results of the effect of silver on the gel structure via visible UV spectroscopy, micro-Raman and 29Si Magic Angle Spinning Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (MAS NMR). It also includes the characterization analyses of the C-S-Ag-H pellets by X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) to determine the silver oxidation state and the assessment of their SERS activity before and after laser irradiation using for the latter Rhodamine B (RhB) as a probe., We acknowledge financial support from the Spanish State Research Agency (AEI) through projects PID2019-104124RB-I00/AEI/10.13039/501100011033; PID2020-113900RB-I00/AEI/10.13039/ 501100011033; and PID2022-137017OB-I00/AEI/10.13039/501100011033; from European Union’s Horizon 2020 through IPERION HS (Integrated Platform for the European Research Infrastructure ON Heritage Science, GA 871034) project; and from the Community of Madrid through Maestro-Guijarro’s Youth Guarantee contract (CAM20_IQFR_AI_06)., Materials folder: “Sample_synthesis”; “Laser_irradiation_conditions” NMR folder: "NMR_readme"; "NMR_C-S-H"; "NMR_C-S-Ag-H" Raman folder: “Raman_readme"; "Raman_C-S-H"; "Raman_C-S-Ag-H"; "Raman_C-S-H_RhB"; "Raman_C-S-Ag-H_RhB" SERS folder: "SERS_readme"; "SERS_RhB_C-S-Ag-H_355"; "SERS_RhB_C-S-Ag-H_355_NPs"; "SERS_RhB_C-S-Ag-H_532"; "SERS_RhB_C-S-Ag-H_532_NPs"; "SERS_RhB_C-S-Ag-H_NPs"; "SERS_RhB_C-S-H_NPs" XPS folder: "XPS_readme"; "XPS_AgAuger_C-S-Ag-H_532"; "XPS_AgAuger_C-S-Ag-H_355"; "XPS_Ag3d_C-S-Ag-H_532"; "XPS_Ag3d_C-S-Ag-H_355"; "XPS_Ag3d_C-S-Ag-H"; "XPS_Ag3d_C-S-H"; "XPS_Ca2p_C-S-Ag-H_532"; "XPS_C1s_C-S-Ag-H_532"; "XPS_wide_C-S-Ag-H_532"; "XPS_wide_C-S-Ag-H_355"; "XPS_wide_C-S-Ag-H"; "XPS_wide_C-S-H" UV-Vis folder: "UV-VIS_readme"; "UV-VIS_C-S-H"; "UV-VIS_C-S-Ag-H", Peer reviewed
