title: Mortality in patients with psychogenic non-epileptic seizures

description: Objective To investigate the hypothesis that patients diagnosed with PNES
 on video-EEG monitoring (VEM) have increased mortality by comparison to
 the general population.   Methods This retrospective cohort study
 included patients evaluated in VEM units of three tertiary hospitals in
 Melbourne, Australia, between January 1st, 1995 and December 31st, 2015.
 Diagnosis was based on consensus opinion of experienced epileptologists
 and neuropsychiatrists at each hospital. Mortality was determined in
 patients diagnosed with PNES, epilepsy or both conditions, by linkage to
 the Australian National Death Index (NDI). Lifetime history of psychiatric
 disorders in PNES was determined from formal neuropsychiatric
 reports.    Results 5,508 patients underwent VEM. 674
 (12.2%) were diagnosed with PNES, 3064 (55.6%) with epilepsy, 175 (3.2%)
 with both conditions, and 1,595 (29.0%) received other diagnoses or had no
 diagnosis made. The standardised mortality ratio (SMR) of patients
 diagnosed with PNES was 2.5 (95% CI 2.0–3.3). Those younger than 30 years
 had an 8-fold higher risk of death (95% CI 3.4–19.8). Direct comparison
 revealed no significant difference in mortality rate between diagnostic
 groups. Amongst deaths in patients diagnosed with PNES (n=55), external
 causes contributed 18%, with 20% of deaths in those younger than 50 years
 attributed to suicide, and “epilepsy” was recorded as the cause of death
 in 24%.    Conclusions Patients diagnosed with PNES have
 a SMR 2.5 times above the general population, dying at a rate comparable
 to those with drug-resistant epilepsy. This emphasises the importance of
 prompt diagnosis, identification of risk factors, and the implementation
 of appropriate strategies to prevent potential avoidable deaths.

title: Supplementary material for "Multi-tracer model for staging cortical amyloid deposition using PET imaging"

description: Objective: To develop and evaluate a model for staging cortical amyloid
 deposition using PET with high generalizability. Methods: 3027 subjects
 (1763 Cognitively Unimpaired (CU), 658 Impaired, 467 Alzheimer’s disease
 (AD) dementia, 111 non-AD dementia, and 28 with missing diagnosis) from
 six cohorts (EMIF-AD, ALFA, ABIDE, ADC, OASIS-3, ADNI) who underwent
 amyloid PET were retrospectively included; 1049 subjects had follow-up
 scans. Applying dataset-specific cut-offs to global Standard Uptake Value
 ratio (SUVr) values from 27 regions, single-tracer and pooled multi-tracer
 regional rankings were constructed from the frequency of abnormality
 across 400 CU subjects (100 per tracer). The pooled multi-tracer ranking
 was used to create a staging model consisting of four clusters of regions
 as it displayed a high and consistent correlation with each single-tracer
 ranking. Relationships between amyloid stage, clinical variables and
 longitudinal cognitive decline were investigated. Results: SUVr
 abnormality was most frequently observed in cingulate, followed by
 orbitofrontal, precuneal, and insular cortices, then the associative,
 temporal and occipital regions. Abnormal amyloid levels based on binary
 global SUVr classification were observed in 1.0%, 5.5%, 17.9%, 90.0%, and
 100.0% of stage 0-4 subjects, respectively. Baseline stage predicted
 decline in MMSE (ADNI: N=867, F=67.37, p&lt;0.001; OASIS: (N=475,
 F=9.12, p&lt;0.001) and faster progression towards an MMSE≤25 (ADNI:
 N=787, HRstage1=2.00, HRstage2=3.53, HRstage3=4.55, HRstage4=9.91,
 p&lt;0.001; OASIS: N=469, HRstage4=4.80, p&lt;0.001). Conclusion:
 The pooled multi-tracer staging model successfully classified the level of
 amyloid burden in &gt;3000 subjects across cohorts and radiotracers,
 and detects pre-global amyloid burden and distinct risk profiles of
 cognitive decline within globally amyloid-positive subjects.

title: Data from: Stressed connections: cortisol levels following acute psychosocial stress disrupt affiliative mimicry in humans

description: Mimicry, and especially spontaneous facial mimicry, is a rudimentary
 element of social–emotional experience that is well-conserved across
 numerous species. Although such mimicry is thought to be a relatively
 automatic process, research indicates that contextual factors can
 influence mimicry, especially in humans. Here, we extend this work by
 investigating the effect of acute psychosocial stress on spontaneous
 facial mimicry. Participants performed a spontaneous facial mimicry task
 with facial electromyography (fEMG) at baseline and approximately one
 month later, following an acute psychosocial stressor (Trier Social Stress
 Test). Results show that the magnitude of the endocrine stress response
 reduced zygomaticus major reactivity, and specifically spontaneous facial
 mimicry for positive social stimuli (i.e. smiles). Individuals with higher
 levels of the stress hormone cortisol showed a more blunted fEMG response
 to smiles, but not to frowns. Conversely, stress had no effect on
 corrugator supercilii activation (i.e. frowning to frowns). These findings
 highlight the importance of the biological stress response system in this
 basic element of social–emotional experience.

title: Evolutionary rate and genetic load in an emblematic Mediterranean tree following an ancient and prolonged population collapse

description: Severe bottlenecks significantly diminish the amount of genetic diversity
 and the speed at which it accumulates (i.e. evolutionary rate). They
 further compromise the efficiency of natural selection to eliminate
 deleterious variants, which may reach fixation in the surviving
 populations. Consequently, expanding and adapting to new environments may
 pose a significant challenge when strong bottlenecks result in genetic
 pauperization. Herein, we surveyed the patterns of nucleotide diversity,
 molecular adaptation and genetic load across hundreds of loci in a
 circum-Mediterranean conifer (Pinus pinea L.) that represents one of the
 most extreme cases of genetic pauperization in widespread outbreeding
 taxa. We found very little genetic variation in both hypervariable
 non-coding (nuSSRs) and gene-coding loci, which translated into genetic
 diversity estimates one order of magnitude lower than those previously
 reported for pines. Such values were consistent with a strong population
 decline that began some ~1Ma. Comparisons with the related and partially
 parapatric maritime pine revealed reduced rates of adaptive evolution (α
 and ωa) and a significant accumulation of genetic load. These did not
 appear to result from differences in mutation rates or linkage
 disequilibrium between the two species; instead they are the likely
 outcome of contrasting demographic histories affecting both the speed at
 which these taxa accumulate genetic diversity, and the global efficacy of
 selection. Future studies, and programs for conservation and management,
 should thus start testing for the effects of genetic load on fitness and
 integrating such effects into predictive models.

title: Bacterial exposure mediates developmental plasticity and resistance to lethal Vibrio lentus Infection in purple sea urchin (Strongylocentrotus purpuratus) larvae

description: Exposure to and colonization by bacteria during development have
 wide-ranging beneficial effects on animal biology but can also inhibit
 growth or cause disease. The immune system is the prime mediator of these
 microbial interactions and is itself shaped by them. Studies using diverse
 animal taxa have begun to elucidate the mechanisms underlying the
 acquisition and transmission of bacterial symbionts and their interactions
 with developing immune systems. Moreover, the contexts of these
 associations are often confounded by stark differences between ‘wild type’
 microbiota and the bacterial communities associated with animals raised in
 conventional or germ-free laboratories. In this study, we investigate the
 spatio-temporal kinetics of bacterial colonization and associated effects
 on growth and immune function in larvae of the purple sea urchin
 (Strongylocentrotus purpuratus) as a model for host-microbe interactions
 and immune system development. We also compare the host-associated
 microbiota of developing embryos and larvae raised in natural seawater or
 exposed to adult-associated bacteria in the laboratory. Bacteria
 associated with zygotes, embryos, and early larvae are detectable with 16S
 amplicon sequencing, but 16S-FISH indicates that the vast majority of
 larval bacterial load is acquired after feeding begins and is localized to
 the gut lumen. The bacterial communities of laboratory-cultured embryos
 are significantly less diverse than the natural microbiota but
 recapitulate its major components (Alphaproteobacteria,
 Gammaproteobacteria, and Bacteroidetes), suggesting that biologically
 relevant host-microbe interactions can be studied in the laboratory. We
 also demonstrate that bacterial exposure in early development induces
 changes in morphology and in the immune system. In the absence of
 bacteria, larvae grow larger at the 4-arm stage. Additionally,
 bacteria-exposed larvae are significantly more resistant to lethal
 infection with the larva-associated pathogen Vibrio lentus suggesting that
 early exposure to high levels of microbes, as would be expected in natural
 conditions, affects the immune state in later larvae. These results expand
 our knowledge of microbial influences on early sea urchin development and
 establish a model in which to study the interactions between the
 developing larval immune system and the acquisition of larval microbiota.

title: Does land use age influence carbon cycling in the Tibetan Plateau?

description: Although substantial information had been generated on the effects of land
 use change on soil organic carbon (SOC) and total nitrogen (TN) storage,
 studies are absent on multifactorial effects of land use types, land use
 age, and elevation on SOC and TN storage. SOC and TN were therefore
 investigated in 30 field sites comprising natural forests, planted
 forests, shrub, and grasslands. SOC and TN stocks differed and correlated
 significantly with land use age; the C stocks correlates significantly
 with land use change compared the TN stocks. However, there was no
 relation between the C and N stocks with elevation, implying that SOC and
 TN are solely dependent on land use age. SOC sequestration potentials of
 the sampled ecosystems were 345.86, 293.19, 266.45, and 251.23 t
 ha−1 for the natural forests, planted forests, shrub, and
 grasslands with total mean value of 289.18 t·ha−1 (1,060.42
 t·ha−1 CO2−eq). A significant SOC stock loss (17.96%, 29.80%, and
 37.66%) occurred in converting natural forests to planted forests, shrub,
 and grasslands, whereas gains (27.36%, 14.31%, and 5.71%) would occur in
 reconverting grassland to natural forests, planted forests, and
 shrublands. Therefore, the C that was lost during deforestation and
 conversion of natural forests into other land use types could not match
 the carbon gains thereafter. Our results suggest that land use change and
 land use age have influenced soil C and N stocks. Moreover, natural
 forests are better in ecological conservation and restoration of degraded
 lands. This study provides baseline information for C and N management in
 ecologically restored and degraded lands.

title: Organization of Squamata (Reptilia) assemblages in Mediterranean archipelagos

description: Mediterranean islands have complex reptile assemblages, but little is
 known about the factors that determine their organisation. In this study,
 the structure of assemblages of Squamata was evaluated based on their
 species richness and two measures of phylogenetic diversity (variability
 and clustering). I evaluated the composition of the assemblages comparing
 distinct biogeographic sub-regions within the Mediterranean: Adriatic,
 Aegean, Balearic, Corsica–Sardinia, Crete, Gulf of Gabés, Ionian Sea,
 Ligurian Sea, Malta, Sicily, and Tyrrhenian Sea. The effect of island
 environments and geographical isolation on the diversity metrics was
 assessed using generalized linear models. The analyses indicated that
 species richness was mostly influenced by island area and geographical
 isolation. Assemblages on smaller islands were poorer in species and
 phylogenetically dispersed, possibly as an effect of interspecific
 competition. The species composition of the assemblages was determined by
 similar environmental drivers within the biogeographic sub-regions,
 including island area, island elevation, geographical isolation, and
 aridity. In several sub-regions, significant patterns of phylogenetic
 attraction were found in species co-occurrences, caused by the limits
 imposed by the island size on large predatory species.

title: Experimental hybridization studies suggest that pleiotropic alleles commonly underlie adaptive divergence between natural populations

description: The alleles used for adaptation can pleiotropically affect traits under
 stabilizing selection. The fixation of alleles with deleterious
 pleiotropic effects causes compensatory alleles to be favoured by
 selection. Such compensatory alleles might segregate in interpopulation
 hybrids, resulting in segregation variance for traits where parents have
 indistinguishable phenotypes. If adaptation typically involves pleiotropy
 and compensation, then the segregation variance for traits under
 stabilizing selection is expected to increase with the magnitude of
 adaptive phenotypic divergence between parents. This prediction has not
 been tested empirically, and I gathered data from experimental
 hybridization studies to evaluate it. I found that pairs of parents which
 are more phenotypically divergent beget hybrids with more segregation
 variance in traits for which the parents are statistically
 indistinguishable. This result suggests that adaptive divergence between
 pairs of natural populations proceeds via pleiotropy and compensation, and
 that deleterious transgressive segregation variance accumulates
 systematically as populations diverge.

title: Does blood loss explain higher resting metabolic rates in nestling birds with hematophagous ectoparasites?

description: Nestlings of many bird species are hosts to hematophagous ectoparasites.
 Parasitism of nestlings is usually sub-lethal, but its effects can extend
 into the fledgling and adult stages. Nestling hosts lose enough blood to
 become anemic, but the effects of reduced oxygen-carrying capacity on
 metabolic rate are poorly understood. This study examined the consequences
 of parasitism by larval blow flies Protocalliphora sialia for nestling
 tree swallows Tachycineta bicolor. We found that nestlings with more
 parasites had higher whole-animal RMR. We evaluated the role of increased
 erythropoiesis as a potential mechanism explaining increased RMR by
 drawing blood from some birds. However, we found no evidence that blood
 loss, as a proxy for hematophagous parasitism, increased metabolic rate.
 Future work should examine the metabolic costs of upregulation of immunity
 and how elevated RMR due to ectoparasites affects nestlings as they
 develop into independent adults.

title: Niche partitioning within a population of seasnakes is constrained by ambient thermal homogeneity and small prey size

description: In many populations of terrestrial snakes, an individual’s phenotype (e.g.
 body size, sex, colour) affects its habitat use. One cause for that link
 is gape-limitation, which can result in larger snakes eating prey that are
 found in different habitats. A second factor involves thermoregulatory
 opportunities, whereby individuals select habitats based upon thermal
 conditions. These ideas predict minimal intraspecific variation in habitat
 use in a species that eats small prey and lives in a thermally uniform
 habitat – such as the seasnake Emydocephalus annulatus, that feeds on tiny
 fish eggs and lives in inshore coral-reefs. To test that prediction, we
 gathered data on water depths and substrate attributes for 1475 sightings
 of 128 free-ranging E. annulatus in a bay near Noumea, New Caledonia.
 Habitat selection varied among individuals, but with a preference for
 coral-dominated substrates. A snake’s body size and reproductive state
 affected its detectability in deep water, but overall habitat use was not
 linked to snake body size, colour morph, sex, or pregnancy. A lack of
 ontogenetic shifts in habitat use allows extreme philopatry in E.
 annulatus, thereby reducing gene flow among populations and potentially,
 delaying recolonization after local extirpation events.

title: Plant community assembly in suburban vacant lots depends on earthmoving legacy, habitat connectivity, and current mowing frequency

description: In suburban regions, vacant lots potentially offer significant
 opportunities for biodiversity conservation. Recently, in Japan, due to an
 economic recession, some previously developed lands have become vacant.
 Little is known, however, about the legacy of earlier earthmoving, which
 involves topsoil removal and ground levelling before residential
 construction, on plant community composition in such vacant lots. To
 understand (dis)assembly processes in vacant lots, we studied 24
 grasslands in a suburban region in Japan: 12 grasslands that had
 experienced earthmoving and 12 that had not. We surveyed plant community
 composition and species richness, and clarified compositional turnover
 (replacement of species) and nestedness (non-random species loss) by
 distance-based β-diversities, which were summarized by PCoA analysis. We
 used piecewise structural equation modeling to examine the effects of soil
 properties, mowing frequency, past and present habitat connectivities on
 compositional changes. As a result, past earthmoving, mowing frequency,
 soil properties, and past habitat connectivity were found to be the
 drivers of compositional turnover. In particular, we found legacy effects
 of earthmoving: earthmoving promoted turnover from native grassland
 species to weeds in arable lands or roadside by altering soil properties.
 Mowing frequency also promoted the same turnover, implying that extensive
 rather than intensive mowing can modify the negative legacy effects and
 maintain grassland species. Decrease in present habitat connectivity
 marginally enhanced non-random loss of native grassland species
 (nestedness). Present habitat connectivity had a positive effect on
 species richness, highlighting the important roles of contemporary
 dispersal. Our study demonstrates that community assembly is a result of
 multiple processes differing in spatial and temporal scales. We suggest
 that extensive mowing at local scale, as well as giving a high
 conservation priority to grasslands with high habitat connectivity at
 regional scale, are the promising actions to maintain endangered native
 grassland species in suburban landscapes with negative legacy effects of
 earthmoving.
description: Species occurrence data (vegetation_data.csv) was first analyzed
 by PCoA, and the resultant ordination axes were used as response variables
 in piecewise SEM analysis. Principal components of soil variables
 (soil_properties.csv), past and present habitat connectivities
 (site_area_and_connectivity.csv), and land-use history
 (landuse_and_mowing.csv) were all used as explanatory variables in the SEM
 analysis.
