title: Embedded performance validity indicator for children: California Verbal Learning Test – Children’s Edition, forced choice

description: Performance validity testing in children undergoing neuropsychological testing is a growing research area. Accurate identification of performance validity is necessary to avoid invalid assessment conclusions. In the present research, a forced choice (FC) trial was created for the California Verbal Learning Test – Children’s Edition (CVLT-C), modeled after the established California Verbal Learning Test – Second Edition (CVLT-II) FC trial. Distractor words were taken directly from the CVLT-II FC Standard Form, with about half being concrete (n = 8) and half abstract (n = 7). The order of the items was organized similarly to the CVLT-II FC to ensure that items from within the same category were not sequential. The Test of Memory Malingering was administered for comparison, and three embedded measures that have previously been validated in adults were also calculated. The CVLT-C FC trial was administered to 40 children, aged 6–16 (M = 12.08, SD = 3.13). Average full scale IQ was 97.3 (SD = 12.41, range = 71–123). Ninety-three percent of examinees performed perfectly on the CVLT-C FC, suggesting high specificity, which is similar to findings for the CVLT-II FC normative group (90%). Results from other embedded measures are also presented.

title: Supplementary Material for: Statin Therapy and Outcomes in Trials of Nintedanib in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis

description: <b><i>Background:</i></b> Cardiovascular comorbidities are frequent in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), and many patients with IPF receive treatment with statins to reduce cardiovascular risk. <b><i>Objectives:</i></b> We investigated whether statin use at baseline was associated with differences in disease progression in placebo-treated patients or influenced the treatment effect of nintedanib in the INPULSIS® trials. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Post-hoc subgroup analyses of patients receiving versus not receiving statins at baseline using pooled data from the INPULSIS® trials. <b><i>Results:</i></b> At baseline, 312 patients received statins and 749 did not. The annual rates of decline in forced vital capacity (FVC) in patients treated with nintedanib and placebo, respectively, were –78.9 and –187.6 mL/year in patients who received statins at baseline, and –127.9 and –237.9 mL/year in patients who did not. The effect of nintedanib was consistent across subgroups (<i>p</i> = 0.9590). <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> In the INPULSIS® trials, there was a numerically lower FVC decline in placebo-treated patients with IPF who received statins at baseline versus those who did not. Use of statins at baseline did not influence the treatment effect of nintedanib. Prospective data are needed to assess the impact of statins on the course of IPF.

title: Data and code "Military Service of Politicians, Public Policy and Parliamentary Decisions"

description: This fileset contains data and code for the paper "Military Service of Politicians, Public Policy and Parliamentary Decisions", CESifo Economic Studies, DOI 10.1093/cesifo/ify006 <br><br>Abstract: How do politicians with past military service decide on societal issues? We explore the voting behavior of parliamentarians in the informative institutional setting of Switzerland with a conscription army. Our setting allows controlling for voter preferences and party ideology. Results show that politicians who have served in the military do not differ from those who have not served when comparing their voting behavior on issues related to female welfare and welfare of the weak and disabled. However, politicians who have served in the military tend to have a higher probability to accept proposals on neutrality and a lower probability to accept proposals linked to international rights and the environment. We explore differences with respect to military ranks and ideological positions within parties and find that having chosen to serve in higher military ranks is associated with a differential voting pattern. This suggests that motivation for the military affects voting in parliament.<br>

title: Supplementary Material for: Procedures Performed during Hospitalizations for Malignant Pleural Effusions: Data from the 2012 National Inpatient Sample

description: <b><i>Background:</i></b> Malignant pleural effusions (MPE) are a common clinical problem. Little is known about the burden of MPE and of the treatments used to alleviate its symptoms on the United States Health Care System. <b><i>Objectives:</i></b> We aimed to obtain a better portrait of inpatient pleural procedures performed in the United States. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> We conducted a retrospective analysis of MPE-associated hospitalizations using the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project-Nationwide Inpatient Sample, Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (HCUP-NIS 2012). Descriptive statistics were used to analyze procedures performed and their complications. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were used to explore the relationship between procedures performed and inpatient mortality and length of stay. <b><i>Results:</i></b> Among the 126,825 hospital admissions with a diagnosis of MPE, 72,240 included one or more pleural procedures. Thoracentesis (54,070) was the most frequently performed procedure followed by chest tube placement (23,035), chemical pleurodesis (10,240), and thoracoscopy (6,615). Hospitalization for lung and breast cancer was more likely to include pleural procedures compared to hospitalization for other types of cancer (59.2 and 65.6%, respectively, <i>p</i> &lt; 0.0001). Chemical pleurodesis through a chest tube compared to thoracoscopic chemical pleurodesis was performed more frequently (57 vs. 43%, <i>p</i> &lt; 0.001) and associated with a longer hospital stay (4.9 vs. 5.9 days, <i>p</i> &lt; 0.001). <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> Hospital admissions for MPE represent a large burden on the US Health Care System. Many hospitalizations are associated with procedures not expected to reduce the recurrence rate of this condition.

title: The enunciative punctuation and the configuration of narrative instances in children’s news

description: ABSTRACT In this paper, based on the interactionism in Language Acquisition proposed by De Lemos (1997, 1999, 2001), we investigate the use of enunciative signs of punctuation (Dahlet 2006) on news produced by a girl, trying to highlight their role in the configuration of narrative instances. The corpus consists of 17 news produced from 7 to 10 years old at school and home environment and all the analysis is mainly qualitative. The results show that many instances of enunciative punctuation indicate the presence of the interlocutor in the saying of the child and her return on her own saying. We relate this listening position to the narrator and the author configuration.

title: A simulation study about the impact of biodiesel use on the atmosphere of Rio de Janeiro city

description: Abstract This study evaluates the impact of biofuels on the air quality of the city of Rio de Janeiro using an air quality model based on the trajectory model OZIPR associated with the SAPRC chemical model. The results show that the increase in biodiesel use reduces ozone levels in the atmosphere by 10.2 %, using Biodiesel with Ethanol and Diesel mixture (BE-Diesel), in 5.28 %, using B20 mixture and only 0.33 % using B10. An increase was observed in NOx emissions of 5.66 and 2.83 % for BE-Diesel mixture and B20, respectively. The low ozone levels are attributed to its consumption by NO. The CO concentration reductions for BE-Diesel, B20 and B10 were 13.11, 6.56 and 4.12 %, respectively. The presence of oxygen atoms within the biodiesel chain leads to a better combustion process, reducing CO emissions.

title: Epidemiological aspects of human and canine visceral leishmaniasis in State of Alagoas, Northeast, Brazil

description: Abstract Zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis (ZVL), caused by protozoans of the genus Leishmania, it is a worldwide of great importance disease. In the northeast region of Brazil, the state of Alagoas has an endemic status for ZVL. Thus, this work aimed to analyze the epidemiological situation of human and canine visceral leishmaniasis in Alagoas, Northeast, Brazil, from 2007 to 2013. We conducted a descriptive, observational, retrospective study using secondary data from the Notifiable Diseases Information System, the Center of Zoonosis Control of Maceió, and the Central Laboratory of Public Health of Alagoas. During the studied period, it was observed that the highest incidence of human visceral leishmaniasis was in 2011 and the lowest in 2013. On the other hand, canine visceral leishmaniasis had its highest incidence in 2007 and its lowest in 2012. Of the 55 municipalities in the State of Alagoas that showed human visceral leishmaniasis (HVL), São José da Tapera presented an average of 4.4 cases over the past five years, being classified as of intense transmission. Regarding canine visceral leishmaniasis, in the same studied period, 45,112 dogs were examined in the State, of which 4,466 were positive. It resulted, thus, in a 9.9% positivity rate. Conclusions: Our data are important because canine infection is an important risk factor for the human disease.
