title: Data from: Missed opportunities for earlier diagnosis of HIV in patients that presented with advanced HIV disease: a retrospective cohort study

description: OBJECTIVE: To quantify and characterize missed opportunities for earlier
 HIV diagnosis in patients diagnosed with advanced HIV. DESIGN: A
 retrospective observational cohort study. SETTING: A central tertiary
 medical center in Israel. MEASURES: The proportion of patients with
 advanced HIV, the proportion of missed opportunities to diagnose them
 earlier, and the rate of clinical indicator diseases (CIDs) in those
 patients RESULTS: Between 2010-2015, 356 patients were diagnosed with HIV,
 118 (33.4 %) were diagnosed late, 57 (16%) with advanced HIV disease. Old
 age (OR=1.45 [95% CI 1.16-1.74]) and being heterosexual (OR=2.65 [95% CI
 1.21-5.78]) were significant risk factors for being diagnosed late. All
 patients with advanced disease had at least one CID that did not lead to
 an HIV test in the 5 years prior to AIDS diagnosis. The median time
 between CID and AIDS diagnosis was 24 month (IQR 10-30). 60% of CIDs were
 missed by a general practitioner and 40% by a specialist. CONCLUSIONS:
 Missed opportunities to early diagnosis of HIV occur both in primary and
 secondary care. Lack of national guidelines, lack of knowledge regarding
 CIDs and communication barriers with patients may contribute to HIV late
 diagnosis. 'Strengths and limitations of this study' This study
 shows for the first time rate and reasons for missed opportunities to
 diagnose HIV in a low prevalence country like Israel. This study may shed
 light on the reasons why primary care physicians or specialists are
 missing to diagnose HIV earlier. Nonexistence of clear national guidelines
 for HIV testing and ignoring HIV clinically indicator diseases are major
 reasons for missed diagnosis of HIV. This study was carried out in one
 center and may not reflect the picture in the all country; Also, the total
 number of patients is low and this may limit generability of the study

title: Data from: Collective decision making in guppies: a cross-population comparison study in the wild

description: Collective cognition has received much attention in recent years but most
 of the empirical work has focused on comparing individuals and groups
 within single populations, thereby not addressing evolutionary origins of
 collective cognition. Here we investigated collective cognition in
 multiple populations that are subject to different levels of predation.
 Guppies (Poecilia reticulata) were given a simultaneous choice between an
 edible and a non-edible stimulus. We found evidence for an improvement in
 decision accuracy when in groups but only in low-predation guppies. This
 performance increase was due to a combination of increased private
 sampling behaviour when in groups (compared to being alone) and social
 information use. In contrast, high-predation fish did not sample more when
 in groups, nor used social information; hence did not improve
 decision-accuracy when in groups. The improvement of groups in foraging
 accuracy in low but not in high predation sites, suggests that these
 populations differ in their trade-off between attention dedicated to food
 and predators. In high predation sites, investing time in predator
 detection is more crucial than in low predation sites, thereby possibly
 conflicting with food detection. Our results highlight the importance of
 considering the effects of ecological gradients on collective cognition.

title: Data from: Colonisation history and genetic diversity: adaptive potential in early stage invasions

description: The introduction of Anolis cristatellus from the multiple species anole
 community of Puerto Rico in the Greater Antilles to the island of Dominica
 in the Lesser Antilles, with its solitary endemic anole, provides an
 example of a very recent, timed, single introduction. We investigate the
 geographic origin and adaptive potential of the Dominican population using
 a range of methods including mtDNA phylogeography, nuclear microsatellite
 variation and multiple paternity studies, as well as heritability
 estimates, common garden experiments and comparative geographic studies of
 quantitative scalation traits. Phylogeographic analysis of NADH2 and
 microsatellite studies suggests that the Dominican population arose from a
 set of individuals from the central west area of Puerto Rico within their
 endemic range. The multiple-individual inoculation, together with sperm
 storage and evidence of multiple paternity indicate genetic variability
 and suggest the potential for adaptation by natural selection. Estimates
 of heritability, common garden experiments and broad sense QST/FST ratios,
 linked to replicated comparisons along elevational transects go some way
 to suggesting that the invasive populations may be adapting by natural
 selection, in parallel with the endemic anole, in the brief period since
 their introduction.

title: Data from: Resveratrol supplementation reduces oxidative stress and modulates the immune response in free-living animals during a viral infection

description: 1. Diet quality may have an important effect on the regulation of
 oxidative status and the immune system during an infectious disease.
 However, the relationship among intake of specific dietary molecules, an
 individual’s oxidative status and the occurrence and progress of a viral
 disease remains almost unexplored in free-living organisms. 2. Here, we
 study a wild, long-lived animal, the Magnificent frigatebird Fregata
 magnificens to investigate: i) the differences in a number of
 physiological traits (biomarkers of blood oxidative status, corticosterone
 (CORT), immunity, and inflammation) between sick and healthy nestlings;
 and ii) whether experimentally increased intake of resveratrol (a
 polyphenol with antioxidant and antiviral properties) affects these
 physiological markers during the progress of a severe viral disease. 3.
 Birds with visible clinical signs showed higher oxidative damage,
 hemolysis and hemagglutination scores, and lower antioxidant defenses in
 comparison to birds without clinical signs. At the end of the experiment,
 supplemented birds showed: i) increased plasma haptoglobin levels and
 circulating antioxidant defenses; ii) reduced generation of lipid
 oxidative damage; and iii) negligible to no influence on immune markers,
 baseline CORT levels, and activity of antioxidant enzymes. 4. Our work
 illustrates how the availability of specific organic molecules in the diet
 may constrain the individuals’ capacity to cope with viral infections in
 free-living animals.

title: Data from: Bumblebees show cognitive flexibility by improving on an observed complex behavior

description: We explored bees’ behavioral flexibility in a task that required
 transporting a small ball to a defined location to gain a reward. Bees
 were pretrained to know the correct location of the ball. Subsequently, to
 obtain a reward, bees had to move a displaced ball to the defined
 location. Bees that observed demonstration of the technique from a live or
 model demonstrator learned the task more efficiently than did bees
 observing a “ghost” demonstration (ball moved via magnet) or without
 demonstration. Instead of copying demonstrators moving balls over long
 distances, observers solved the task more efficiently, using the ball
 positioned closest to the target, even if it was of a different color than
 the one previously observed. Such unprecedented cognitive flexibility
 hints that entirely novel behaviors could emerge relatively swiftly in
 species whose lifestyle demands advanced learning abilities, should
 relevant ecological pressures arise.

title: Data from: Reciprocal relationships between behaviour and parasites suggest that negative feedback may drive flexibility in male reproductive behaviour

description: Parasites are ubiquitous components of the environment that contribute to
 behavioral and life-history variation among hosts. Although it’s
 well-known that host behavior can affect parasite infection risk and that
 parasites can alter host behavior, the potential for dynamic feedback
 between these processes is poorly characterized. Using Grant’s gazelle
 (Nanger granti) as a model, we tested for reciprocal effects of behavior
 on parasites and parasites on behavior to understand whether
 behavior-parasite feedback could play a role in maintaining variation in
 male reproductive behavior. Adult male gazelles either defend territories
 to attract mates or reside in bachelor groups. Territoriality is highly
 variable both within- and between-individuals, suggesting that territory
 maintenance is costly. Using a combination of longitudinal and
 experimental studies, we found that individual males transition frequently
 between territorial and bachelor reproductive status, and that elevated
 parasite burdens are a cost of territoriality. Moreover, among territorial
 males, parasites suppress aspects of behavior related to territory
 maintenance and defense. These results suggest that territorial behavior
 promotes the accumulation of parasites in males, and these parasites
 dampen the very behaviors required for territory maintenance. Our findings
 suggest that reciprocal feedback between host behavior and parasitism
 could be a mechanism maintaining variation in male reproductive behavior
 in the system.

title: Data from: Plant diversity in oceanic archipelagos: realistic patterns emulated by an agent‐based computer simulation

description: Although islands as natural laboratories have held the attention of
 scientists for centuries, they continue to offer new study questions,
 especially in the context of the current biodiversity crisis. To date,
 habitat diversity on islands and spatial configuration of archipelagos
 have received less attention than classical island area and isolation.
 Moreover, in the field where experiments are impossible, correlative
 methods have dominated, despite the call for more mechanistic approaches.
 We developed an agent‐based computer simulation to study the effect of
 habitat diversity and archipelago configuration on plant species richness
 and composition in five archipelagos worldwide (Hawaii, Galapagos, Canary
 Islands, Cape Verde and Azores) and compared simulated diversity patterns
 to the empirical data. Habitat diversity proved to be an important factor
 to achieve realistic simulation results in all five archipelagos, whereas
 spatial structure of archipelagos was important in more elongated
 archipelagos. In most cases, simulation results correlate stronger with
 spermatophyte than with pteridophyte data, which we suggest can be
 attributed to the different dispersal and evolution rates of the two
 species groups. Correlation strength between simulated and observed
 diversity also varied among archipelagos, suggesting that geological and
 biogeographic histories of archipelagos have affected the species richness
 and composition on the islands. Our study demonstrates that a relatively
 simple computer simulation involving just a few essential processes can
 largely emulate patterns of archipelagic species richness and composition
 and serve as a powerful additional method to complement empirical
 approaches.

title: Data from: Species and hybrid identification of sturgeon caviar: a new molecular approach to detect illegal trade

description: Overexploitation of wild populations due to the high economic value of
 caviar has driven sturgeons to near extinction. The high prices commanded
 by caviar on world markets have made it a magnet for illegal and
 fraudulent caviar trade, often involving low-value farmed caviar being
 sold as top-quality caviar. We present a new molecular approach for the
 identification of pure sturgeon species and hybrids that are among the
 most commercialized species in Europe and North America. Our test is based
 on the discovery of species-specific single nucleotide polymorphisms
 (SNPs) in the ribosomal protein S7, supplemented with the Vimentin gene
 and the mitochondrial D-loop. Test validations performed in 702 specimens
 of target and nontarget sturgeon species demonstrated a 100%
 identification success for Acipenser naccarii, A. fulvescens, A.
 stellatus, A. sinensis and A. transmontanus. In addition to species
 identification, our approach allows the identification of Bester and AL
 hybrids, two of the most economically important hybrids in the world, with
 80% and 100% success, respectively. Moreover, the approach has the
 potential to identify many other existing sturgeon hybrids. The
 development of a standardized sturgeon identification tool will directly
 benefit trade law enforcement, providing the tools to monitor and regulate
 the legal trade of caviar and protect sturgeon stocks from illicit
 producers and traders, hence contributing to safeguarding this group of
 heavily threatened species.

title: Data from: Natural genetic variation in social environment choice: context-dependent gene-environment correlation in Drosophila melanogaster

description: Gene-environment correlation (rGE) occurs when an individual’s genotype
 determines its choice of environment, generating a correlation between
 environment and genotype frequency. In particular, social rGE, caused by
 genetic variation in social environment choice, can critically determine
 both individual development and the course of social selection. Despite
 its foundational role in social evolution and developmental psychology
 theory, natural genetic variation in social environment choice has
 scarcely been examined empirically. Drosophila melanogaster provides an
 ideal system for investigating social rGE. Flies live socially in nature
 and have many opportunities to make social decisions; and natural,
 heterozygous genotypes may be replicated, enabling comparisons between
 genotypes across environments. Using this approach, I show that all
 aspects of social environment choice vary among natural genotypes,
 demonstrating pervasive social rGE. Surprisingly, genetic variation in
 group-size preference was density-dependent, indicating that the
 behavioral and evolutionary consequences of rGE may depend on the context
 in which social decisions are made. These results provide the first
 detailed investigation of social rGE, and illustrate that that genetic
 variation may influence organismal performance by specifying the
 environment in which traits are expressed.

title: Data from: Agreement between electronic and paper Epworth Sleepiness Scale responses in obstructive sleep apnoea: secondary analysis of a randomised controlled trial undertaken in a specialised tertiary care clinic

description: Objectives: Originally developed as a paper questionnaire, the electronic
 Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) is widely used in sleep clinics and sleep
 population research. Despite potential differences between computer-based
 and conventional questionnaire delivery, studies have not evaluated the
 agreement between electronic and paper versions of the ESS. Given the
 widespread use of the ESS, a bias between results would present
 considerable data concerns. Thus, the aim of this study was to examine
 agreement between electronic and paper ESS responses in obstructive sleep
 apnoea (OSA). Design: We undertook a secondary analysis of baseline data
 from a randomised controlled trial (ANZCTR: ACTRN12611000847910). Setting:
 Data were collected in a tertiary sleep research laboratory located in
 Sydney, Australia. Participants: Data were analysed from 112 adult OSA
 patients. Measurements: Patients were given the English version of the ESS
 as part of a battery of sleep laboratory questionnaires. They completed
 electronic and subsequently paper ESS questionnaires on the same day.
 Results: We found no significant difference between electronic and paper
 ESS questionnaires (mean = 0.1, SD = 2.1, 95% CI [-0.3, 0.5], p = .57) or
 heteroscedasticity. There was no evidence of bias along the range of the
 measure. 95% limits of agreement at 4.3 and -4.1 were comparable with
 previous data. Conclusions: We found no evidence of bias between
 electronic and paper ESS questionnaires in this sample of OSA patients, as
 the two formats displayed sufficient agreement to be clinically
 comparable. Regardless of severity, patients reported the same level of
 daytime sleepiness with the same level of accuracy across both measures.

title: Data from: The signal in noise: acoustic information for soundscape orientation in two North American tree frogs

description: Diverse animals use environmental sounds to orient in ecological
 soundscapes. Yet, we know little about how acoustic information use drives
 behavioral decisions to orient. Although the sound generated by frog
 choruses functions as noise that impairs signal reception by listeners in
 the aggregation, it can also serve as an informative ecological signal
 that allows other individuals to orient toward and localize active
 breeding aggregations. Here, we investigated the acoustic cues that elicit
 orientation toward the sound of a chorus in green tree frogs (Hyla
 cinerea) and Cope’s gray tree frogs (Hyla chrysoscelis). We measured
 phonotaxis behavior of gravid females in response to playbacks of natural
 choruses and artificial choruses that differed in the types of acoustic
 information present. Females of both species oriented to natural choruses
 and to artificial choruses that contained information on the actual timing
 and temporal structure of individual calls embedded in the sound of the
 chorus. Artificial choruses with the time-averaged frequency spectrum and
 amplitude-modulation spectrum of natural choruses, but lacking information
 on the timing and temporal structure of individual calls, did not elicit
 positive phonotaxis. Our results indicate that temporal information from
 individual calls in the din of chorus sounds is necessary to elicit
 soundscape orientation. Because the temporal structure of individual calls
 may degrade quickly as the sound of the chorus propagates through the
 habitat, orientation to breeding choruses based on acoustic information
 alone may be limited to relatively short distances in these 2 species.

title: Data from: Using filter-based community assembly models to improve restoration outcomes

description: 1. Ecological filter models derived from community assembly theory can
 inform restoration planning by highlighting management actions most likely
 to affect community composition. Despite growing interest in these models,
 many restoration studies solely manipulate a single filter—the biotic
 filter by altering interspecific competition in studies—while ignoring
 abiotic and dispersal filters that may also influence restoration success.
 2. To examine how manipulating all three filters (biotic, abiotic,
 dispersal) affected restoration in an annual-type grassland, we seeded
 native forbs from the same functional group as a target invader to
 increase biotic resistance to invasion (biotic filter), cut standing
 biomass and either removed it or returned it to plots as litter to alter
 light conditions (abiotic filter), and added native forbs at different
 seeding rates to alter density of establishing native populations
 (dispersal filter). We measured restoration success by recording native
 species and invader cover in plots. 3. The addition of native species with
 phenological and morphological traits similar to the target invader
 reduced invasion and increased native populations, but only in litter-free
 plots when high-densities of native seed were added. 4. Seeding two
 species with functional traits similar to the invader was more effective
 at reaching restoration goals than seeding just one functionally similar
 species. As such, trait differences among restoration species, even
 species belonging to the same functional group, may increase biotic
 resistance to invasion in restored communities. 5. Litter removal altered
 native-invader interactions. When litter was kept, added natives did not
 reduce invader cover. However, when litter was removed, added natives led
 to declines in invader cover. 6. Increasing native seeding rates led to
 larger native populations and increased invasion resistance. 7. Synthesis
 and applications. In this study, simultaneously manipulating biotic,
 abiotic and dispersal filters was necessary to optimize restoration
 outcomes. In particular, the biotic filter only contributed to successful
 restoration outcomes under abiotic and dispersal conditions that were
 created through management actions specifically targeting these two
 additional filters. Restoration planning based on filter models should
 incorporate actions that target all three filters, rather than solely
 focusing on the biotic filter.
