title: Global molecular variation of <i>Paramecium jenningsi</i> complex (Ciliophora, Protista): a starting point for further, detailed biogeography surveys

description: The world’s second stand of <i>P. primjenningsi</i> (<i>Paramecium jenningsi</i> complex, Ciliophora, Protista), heretofore known only from India, has been revealed in Ethiopia (Africa). This finding has enlarged the range of this cryptic species and was a trigger to re-analyse the distribution of all members of the complex (known from ∼20 tropical locations). The current survey is an initial one, where, based on haplotype networks, a detailed analysis of the relationship within the <i>P. jenningsi</i> complex has been performed. Although the V4 hypervariable fragment of the SSU rDNA gene is widely used as a first-step barcode marker for microbial HTS analyses, it has provided inconclusive results based on the dataset investigated. However, the ITS1-5.8S-ITS2-5’rDNA and COI mtDNA fragments indicate the possibility of the delimitation of the cryptic species of <i>P. jenningsi</i> (which is crucial from the point of view of metabarcoding surveys). We suppose that future sampling of unexplored, tropical regions will certainly change our knowledge about <i>Paramecium</i> biodiversity and biogeography. This sampling will probably rely on the integration of metabarcodes from environmental DNA studies, with molecular data obtained from identified representatives of particular cryptic species.

title: Identification and characterization of maize <i>ACD6</i>-like gene reveal <i>ZmACD6</i> as the maize orthologue conferring resistance to <i>Ustilago maydis</i>

description: Enhancing broad-spectrum resistance is a major goal of crop breeding. However, broad-spectrum resistance has not been thoroughly investigated, and its underlying molecular mechanisms remain elusive. In the model plant Arabidopsis (<i>Arabidopsis thaliana</i>), ACCELERATED CELL DEATH6 (ACD6) is a key component of broad-spectrum resistance that acts in a positive feedback loop with salicylic acid (SA) to regulate multiple pattern recognition receptors. However, the role of ACD6 in disease resistance in crop plants is unclear. Here, we show that the transcript of <i>ANK23</i>, one of the 15 <i>ACD6</i>-like genes in maize (<i>Zea mays</i>), is induced by SA and by infection with the pathogenic fungus <i>Ustilago maydis</i>. Heterologous expression of <i>ANK23</i> restored disease resistance in the Arabidopsis mutant <i>acd6-2</i>. We show that <i>ANK23</i> is a maize ortholog of <i>ACD6</i> and therefore rename <i>ANK23</i> as <i>ZmACD6</i>. Furthermore, using CRISPR/Cas9, we generated <i>ZmACD6</i> knockout maize plants, which are more susceptible to <i>U. maydis</i> than wild-type plants. We also identified a maize line (SC-9) with relatively high <i>ZmACD6</i> expression levels from a diverse natural maize population. SC-9 has increased disease resistance to <i>U. maydis</i> and defense activation, suggesting a practical approach to cultivate elite varieties with enhanced disease resistance.

title: A continuous and reversible mechano-regulated surface potential using a stretchable plasmonic electrode

description: Manipulating the surface potential of electrode materials is a critical issue for improving the devices performance in the fields of nanophotonics, semiconductor/organic electronics, optoelectronics, and electrochemistry. Here, we demonstrate a novel mechano-plasmonic modulation of surface potential by tailoring the plasmon off-resonance of stretchable plasmonic electrode. The surface potential of the stretchable plasmonic electrode can be continuously and reversibly modulated in the range of 80 mV with high stability and reproducibility. The proposed plasmon off-resonance assisted electron flow model (POAEF model) well explored the energy conversion of the plasmon off-resonance excitation into electrochemical potential of plasmonic nanostructures. Significantly, the programmable modulations of electrochemical reactions based on the stretchable plasmonic electrode demonstrate that plasmon off-resonance excitation can be utilized to modulate the surface potential and the electrochemical activity of noble-metal nanostructures.

title: Asthma management and control in Nigeria: the asthma insight and reality Nigeria (AIRNIG) study

description: <b>Background</b>: The state of asthma management and asthma control at the population level in Nigeria is unknown. We aimed to determine the level of asthma control and asthma management practices in Nigeria. <b>Methods</b>: A cross-sectional population-based study of 405 participants with current asthma (physician-diagnosed with use of asthma medication or asthma symptoms in the preceding 12 months). We determined the level of asthma control, self-perception of asthma control, health-care use, missed work/school, and medication use. <b>Results</b>: Asthma was controlled in 6.2% of the participants. Night-time awakening and limitation in activity in the preceding 4 weeks were reported by 77.5% and 78.3%, respectively, 56.3% and 14.1% missed work/school and had emergency room visits, respectively, and 11.6% and 38.8% used inhaled corticosteroid and short-acting beta-2 agonist, respectively, in the preceding year. About a third (34.3%) had spirometry ever performed and 46.7% had training on inhaler technique. Nearly 90% with uncontrolled asthma had self-perception of asthma control between somewhat and completely controlled. <b>Conclusion</b>: The level of asthma control in Nigeria is poor with a high burden of asthma symptoms and limitation in activities. This calls for a broad-based approach for the improvement in asthma care that encompasses education and access to medications.

title: ceste - the non-spatial ancillary to CESTES - data for Community Ecology: Species, Traits and Environment

description: "ceste" is the non-spatial ancillary to CESTES. We provide access to 10 additional datasets that were not completely suitable for the CESTES database, due to the absence of spatial information or insufficient metadata but that were potentially valuable for their three other data matrices (comm, traits, envir). They follow the same structure as CESTES, except that they do not present the “coord” sheet and sometimes include only partial metadata. The “ceste.zip” zipped folder includes the 10 data files + 1 metadata file called "ceste_metadata.xlsx".

title: Supplementary Material for: Fetal Cystoscopy and Vesicoamniotic Shunting in Lower Urinary Tract Obstruction: Long-Term Outcome and Current Technical Limitations

description: <b><i>Background:</i></b> In utero therapeutic approaches for lower urinary tract obstruction (LUTO) have been developed to salvage the fetal kidney function. <b><i>Objective:</i></b> The aim of this work was to report the long-term survival, nephrological, and urological outcome of children treated prenatally for LUTO using operative fetal cystoscopy (FC) and vesicoamniotic shunting (VAS) or both. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> A retrospective study of 48 procedures (23 FC, 25 VAS) was performed on 33 patients (between 2008 and 2018). Reviewed data included prenatal management and clinical follow-up by a pediatric nephrologist and a pediatric urologist. Both intention-to-treat and per-protocol analyses were conducted. <b><i>Results:</i></b> The median follow-up was 3.6 years (0.5–7) for FC and 2.5 years (1.1–5.1) for VAS. There was no difference between FC and VAS in terms of survival (92 vs. 83%, <i>p</i> = 1), complication rate (74 vs. 92%, <i>p</i> = 0.88), or chronic kidney disease (58 vs. 50%, <i>p</i> = 1). The number of procedures was higher in the VAS group: 1.7 (1–3) versus 1.1 (1–2), <i>p</i> = 0.01. With a 30% rate of technical failure, FC added diagnostic value in 3 out of 21 cases. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> No difference was found between FC and VAS regarding survival, long-term kidney function, or urological outcome. Despite overly optimistic reports on FC, it lacks reproducibility due to posterior-urethra inadequate visualization and inappropriate instrumentation.
