title: Evaluating the relationship between biomarkers of potential harm and biomarkers of tobacco exposure among current, past, and nonsmokers: data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2007–2012

description: Potential long-term health effects from tobacco products can be estimated by measuring changes in biochemical indicators of disease mechanisms like inflammation. This study assesses the potential relationships between biomarkers of potential harm (BOPH) and biomarkers of cigarette smoke exposure (BOE) based on data from the NHANES (2007–2012, <i>n</i> = 17,293 respondents). Statistically significant relationships were observed between white blood cells (WBC) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and BOE; between WBC and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein and smoking status; and between WBC and HDL and smoking intensity. This analysis suggests that WBC and HDL are useful BOPH in studies assessing the health risks of cigarette smoking.

title: A hotspot for threatened Mediterranean odonates in the Seybouse River (Northeast Algeria): are IUCN population sizes drastically underestimated?

description: Several odonate species are threatened in the Mediterranean basin and some of them show alarming decreasing trends. The distribution and population estimations provided by the IUCN are based on occasional field sampling or non-rigorous methodologies and could be erroneous and misleading. To obtain reliable estimations of the population size and distribution of three threatened species, <i>Calopteryx exul</i>, <i>Coenagrion mercuriale</i>, and <i>Gomphus lucasii</i>, we first conducted capture-mark-recapture in a natural population during one flight season, and second we carried out intensive sampling of adults, larvae and exuviae in the Seybouse watershed, Northeast Algeria. In addition, a revision of odonate occurrence and distribution in the watershed was done by pooling information collected over six years (2010–2015). Our results show that population estimations of the three species are much higher than what the IUCN presents; that is, 2208 individuals of <i>C. exul</i> (22.08% of the estimated global population), 1765 individuals of <i>C. mercuriale</i>, and 11,204 individuals of <i>Gomphus lucasii</i> (about 4.5 times as large as the estimated global population). Moreover, a total of 42 species were recorded in the study site, of which seven are new. The mean number of localities per species increased by a factor of 2.47, e.g. from six to 12 in <i>C. exul</i>, two to 12 in <i>Coenagrion mercuriale</i> and five to 14 in <i>Gomphus lucasii</i>. Our results suggest that the Seybouse watershed is one of the most important areas in North Africa and the Mediterranean basin for these three threatened species and requires particular attention and an urgent conservation plan to reduce anthropogenic effects and maintain populations.

title: Supplementary Material for: The Diagnostic Utility of the NINDS-CSN Neuropsychological Battery in Memory Clinics

description: <i>Aims:</i> To examine the diagnostic utility of the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke and the Canadian Stroke Network (NINDS-CSN) neuropsychological battery in memory clinics comparing controls with patients with no cognitive impairment (NCI), patients with cognitive impairment-no dementia (CIND) at varying severity levels (mild/moderate), and patients with dementia.<i>Methods:</i> A total of 405 participants with NCI, CIND or dementia were assessed with the NINDS-CSN battery. The discriminatory properties of all three protocols (5, 30 and 60 min) before and after education stratification (none/primary vs. secondary/above) were examined by receiver operating characteristic curves. <i>Results:</i> Overall, the shorter protocols are equivalent to the longer protocol in diagnosing dementia, regardless of education. To discriminate between nondementia groups, before education stratification, the 5-min protocol showed varied discriminatory properties between different diagnostic/severity groups. After stratification, the 5-min protocol was broadly equivalent to the longer protocols in lower-education groups [area under the curve (AUC) range: 0.77-0.87] but was less accurate in the higher-education groups (AUC range: 0.68-0.78). The 30- and 60-min protocol constantly showed moderate-to-excellent differentiating capacities regardless of education (AUC range: 0.80-0.90). <i>Conclusion:</i> The NINDS-CSN neuropsychological battery can be applied in memory clinics and effectively discriminate between cognitively intact individuals and those with cognitive impairments of varying severity. Furthermore, level of education should be taken into consideration when choosing protocols with different lengths for cognitive assessment.

title: Association of <i>VDR</i> ApaI and TaqI Gene Polymorphisms with the Risk of Scleroderma and Behçet’s Disease

description: Vitamin D deficiency and vitamin D receptor (<i>VDR</i>) gene polymorphisms have been reported in autoimmune diseases. However, their role in Behçet’s disease (BD) and scleroderma remains inconclusive. Our aim was to evaluate vitamin D receptor (ApaI, TaqI) gene polymorphisms in relation to Behçet’s disease and scleroderma in Egyptians. The study was conducted on 54 patients with BD, 30 scleroderma patients, and 60 healthy control subjects. <i>VDR</i> (ApaI, TaqI) gene polymorphisms were investigated using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism technique. The “a” allele of ApaI (A/a) polymorphism was significantly associated with increased BD risk (OR = 2.09, 95% CI = 1.18–3.71, <i>p</i> = 0.011), while the TaqI “tt” genotype was significantly lower in BD patients as compared to control subjects (OR = 0.35, 95% CI = 0.13–0.9, <i>p</i> = 0.026). Carriage of “aT” <i>VDR</i> haplotype was significantly associated with higher BD risk (OR = 2.28, 95% = 1.14–4.56, <i>p</i> = 0.022). In conclusion, our findings suggest that <i>VDR</i> gene polymorphisms have a significant association with BD in Egyptian patients.

title: Data from: Phosphorus accumulates faster than nitrogen globally in freshwater ecosystems under anthropogenic impacts

description: Combined effects of cumulative nutrient inputs and biogeochemical processes that occur in freshwater under anthropogenic eutrophication could lead to myriad shifts in nitrogen (N):phosphorus (P) stoichiometry in global freshwater ecosystems, but this is not yet well-assessed. Here we evaluated the characteristics of N and P stoichiometries in bodies of freshwater and their herbaceous macrophytes across human-impact levels, regions and periods. Freshwater and its macrophytes had higher N and P concentrations and lower N:P ratios in heavily than lightly human-impacted environments, further evidenced by spatiotemporal comparisons across eutrophication gradients. N and P concentrations in freshwater ecosystems were positively correlated and N:P was negatively correlated with population density in China. These results indicate a faster accumulation of P than N in human-impacted freshwater ecosystems, which could have large effects on the trophic webs and biogeochemical cycles of estuaries and coastal areas by freshwater loadings, and reinforce the importance of rehabilitating these ecosystems.

title: Clusters Beat Trend!? Testing Feature Hierarchy in Statistical Graphics

description: Graphics are very effective for communicating numerical information quickly and efficiently, but many of the design choices we make are based on subjective measures, such as personal taste or conventions of the discipline rather than objective criteria. We briefly introduce perceptual principles such as preattentive features and gestalt heuristics, and then discuss the design and results of a factorial experiment examining the effect of plot aesthetics such as color and trend lines on participants’ assessment of ambiguous data displays. The quantitative and qualitative experimental results strongly suggest that plot aesthetics have a significant impact on the perception of important features in data displays. Supplementary materials for this article are available online.
