title: Supplementary Material for: Standardized Photographic Documentation of Hidradenitis Suppurativa/Acne Inversa

description: <b><i>Background:</i></b> Despite existing guidelines and methods for standardized clinical photography in dermatology and plastic surgery, human skin exhibits exquisite site-specific morphologies and functions, and each body region can exhibit an individual pathologic phenotype. The aim of this work was to develop a standardized, representative and reproducible documentation of the multilocular hidradenitis suppurativa/acne inversa (HS) lesions, a disease mostly occurring in skin folds. <b><i>Method:</i></b> Optimal body positions for medical photography of candidate areas for HS involvement were evaluated. Pictures of volunteers were taken, and indicative scientific graphics were designed. <b><i>Results:</i></b> Due to the variability of HS lesions and the fact of their localization in skin folds, a standardized, reproducible photographic documentation of HS candidate skin areas (50 cm from the skin surface) is proposed. The photographic series includes: (1) right armpit, (2) left armpit, (3) right groin, (4) left groin, (5) genital area, (6) anal area and anal fold, (7) right buttock, (8) left buttock, (9) chest area, (10) mons pubis, (11) right submammary area (females), (12) left submammary area (females). The protocol is accompanied with indicative scientific graphics for photography-proper positioning of the relevant body parts for documentation of potentially flat skin areas. In addition, former proposals for technical standardization of photography in dermatology, regarding instrumentation, environmental lighting and background colour, have to be respected. <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> Standardized photography of candidate skin areas for HS involvement will allow longitudinal intraindividual and interindividual evaluation of the disease course as well as prospective and retrospective comparative studies.

title: Separatism, the Arab uprisings and the legacies of lost territorial autonomy

description: This paper considers the origins of separatist conflicts by examining the Arab uprisings of 2011. Given the internal fractionalization of Arab polities and the artificiality of their borders, many anticipated that Arab states would disintegrate. In fact, separatist conflicts only arose in Iraq, Syria, Libya and Yemen. The paper combines fuzzy set/qualitative comparative analysis (FS/QCA) and within-case process tracing of individual cases to identify the key causal factors that generated these conflicts. It finds that separatist conflicts occurred when there was a conjunction of two conditions: (1) severe crisis during the uprising; and (2) the prior existence of failed state-building efforts and defunct states since the end of the First World War. It also shows that oil production enhances state cohesion at some times but at others motivates and catalyzes separatist gambits. This finding suggests that current conflicts are not about primordial identities or ancient hatred. Rather, they represent efforts to reinstate forms of self-rule and independence lost during the 20th century. This emphasizes the need for a macro-social, institutional approach to civil wars that can explain how historical legacies constrain or impel actors to pursue different strategies and mount different claims on the state.

title: United in difference: on the divergence in floral preferences between Galápagos birds and insects

description: <b>Dataset</b><br><br>Sixteen morphological and nectar traits of 31 Galápagos plant species studied in the arid zone between March 2016 and April 2017. <br><br> <b>Study Abstract</b>The characteristic scarcity of insects on remote oceanic islands has driven non-flower specialized vertebrates to broaden their trophic niches and explore floral resources. From our previous studies in the Galápagos, we know that native insectivorous and frugivorous Galápagos birds visit a wide range of typical entomophilous flowers and can also act as effective pollinators. Here, we tested whether opportunistic Galápagos birds show any preference for specific floral traits, and if this preference differs from that of insects.<b> </b>Sixteen morphological and nectar traits of 31 Galápagos plant species were studied, as well as their visitation frequency by birds and insects. Non-metric multidimensional scaling (NMDS) was used to evaluate the dispersal of flower trait values along two main dimensions and measure the similarity between the plants visited mostly by birds versus those by insects.<em><b> </b></em>A NMDS of floral traits resulted in two species groups: i) larger, bell-shaped flowers with slight larger nectar volume, associated with high bird visitation rates; and ii) smaller, bowl-shaped flowers with lower nectar volume, associated with high insect visitation rates. Galápagos birds preferred species with floral traits intermediate between those of insect- and bat-pollination syndromes. This finding is coherent with the existence of a transitional or bet-hedging phenotype between insect and bird pollination and underscores the importance of coevolution and floral diversification in non-specialized plant-pollinator mutualisms.<em><b> <br></b></em><em></em><br>

title: Supplementary Material for: Closure of Bronchopleural Fistula with Mesenchymal Stem Cells: Case Report and Brief Literature Review

description: Closure of bronchopleural fistula remains a difficult challenge for clinicians. Although several therapeutic approaches have been proposed, the clinical results are commonly unsatisfactory. Previous reports have indicated that autologous mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are useful for aiding treatment of bronchopleural fistula. We report here the use of umbilical cord MSCs to effect the successful closure of a bronchopleural fistula (5 mm) in a 33-year-old woman 6 months after a lobectomy. A review of the relevant literature is included. The use of MSCs may be a promising therapeutic method for the closure of bronchopleural fistula. Randomized controlled trials with larger samples are required.

title: Zebrafish expression reporters and mutants reveal that the IgSF cell adhesion molecule Dscamb is required for feeding and survival

description: Down syndrome cell adhesion molecules (DSCAMs) are broadly expressed in nervous systems and play conserved roles in programmed cell death, neuronal migration, axon guidance, neurite branching and spacing, and synaptic targeting. However, DSCAMs appear to have distinct functions in different vertebrate animals, and little is known about their functions outside the retina. We leveraged the genetic tractability and optical accessibility of larval zebrafish to investigate the expression and function of a DSCAM family member, <i>dscamb</i>. Using targeted genome editing to create transgenic reporters and loss-of-function mutant alleles, we discovered that <i>dscamb</i> is expressed broadly throughout the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nervous system, but is not required for overall structural organization of the brain. Despite the absence of obvious anatomical defects, homozygous <i>dscamb</i> mutants were deficient in their ability to ingest food and rarely survived to adulthood. Thus, we have discovered a novel function for <i>dscamb</i> in feeding behavior. The mutant and transgenic lines generated in these studies will provide valuable tools for identifying the molecular and cellular bases of these behaviors.

title: Postsynaptic Syntaxin 4 negatively regulates the efficiency of neurotransmitter release

description: Signaling from the postsynaptic compartment regulates multiple aspects of synaptic development and function. Syntaxin 4 (Syx4) is a plasma membrane t-SNARE that promotes the growth and plasticity of <i>Drosophila</i> neuromuscular junctions (NMJs) by regulating the localization of key synaptic proteins in the postsynaptic compartment. Here, we describe electrophysiological analyses and report that loss of <i>Syx4</i> leads to enhanced neurotransmitter release, despite a decrease in the number of active zones. We describe a requirement for postsynaptic <i>Syx4</i> in regulating several presynaptic parameters, including Ca<sup>2+</sup> cooperativity and the abundance of the presynaptic calcium channel Cacophony (Cac) at active zones. These findings indicate Syx4 negatively regulates presynaptic neurotransmitter release through a retrograde signaling mechanism from the postsynaptic compartment.
