title: CLINICAL COCCIDIOSIS IN BROILER CHICKS NATURALLY INFECTED AND IMMUNOSUPPRESSED WITH DEXAMETHASONE

description: ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to evaluate the occurrence of clinical coccidiosis in broilers immunosuppressed with dexamethasone. Male and female broiler chickens, from 35 to 38 days old were divided into 3 groups – group I (n = 25), including chickens without coccidiosis and negative for coccidia in fecal examination; group II (n = 25), including birds with coccidiosis and positive for coccidia in fecal examination; group III (n = 25), constituted by chickens with no coccidiosis, negative for coccidia in fecal examination and immunosuppressed with dexamethasone (4 mg/kg/day for 4 days, subcutaneous route). The diagnosis of coccidiosis was achieved using the centrifugal floatation technique in sucrose solution to investigate the presence of oocystis in stools, as well as by the observation of macroscopic and microscopic changes in the gut after necropsy. The immune response was evaluated by determination of cutaneous basophil hypersensitivity (CBH) response to phytohemagglutinin (PHA) and of the weight ratio of bursa of Fabricius and spleen in relation to body weight. Broilers from group II and III presented decreased CBH reaction to PHA in relation to group I, suggesting a decrease of the immune response. In addition, chickens from group III presented a significant decrease in the weight of the bursa of Fabricius and of the spleen. The coccidian types were E. acervulina and E. maxima in chickens from groups II and III, as well as E. tenella in chickens treated with dexamethasone. Immunosuppression induced by dexamethasone increased susceptibility to natural coccidiosis in commercially raised broiler chicks.

title: Evaluation of the fetal abdomen by magnetic resonance imaging. Part 1: malformations of the abdominal cavity

description: Abstract Although ultrasound continues to be the mainstay modality for the evaluation of fetal disorders, fetal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has often been used as a valuable adjunct in recent years. The exponential growth of the use of fetal MRI has been facilitated by technological advancements such as ultrafast T2-weighted sequences and diffusion-weighted imaging. Fetal MRI can achieve results that are comparable to or better than those of ultrasound, particularly in cases of maternal obesity, severe oligohydramnios, or abnormal fetal position. Because of its superior soft tissue contrast, wide field of view, and multiplanar imaging, fetal MRI is able to evaluate the large fetal organs, such as the lungs, liver, bowel, and kidneys. In addition, fetal MRI allows large or complex malformations to be examined, facilitating the understanding of the malformation within the context of the body as a whole. Initial fetal MRI studies were focused on the central nervous system. With advances in software and hardware, fetal MRI gained importance in the evaluation of the fetal abdomen. The purpose of this article is to review the recent literature and developments in MRI evaluation of the fetal abdomen, with an emphasis on imaging aspects, protocols, and common clinical indications.

title: Range map dataset for terrestrial vertebrates across Taiwan

description: This dataset provides up-to-date, high-precision species distribution maps for 379 terrestrial vertebrates in Taiwan. 
We used species distribution modeling as the base and then aggregated multiple open datasets describing species occurrence and environmental factors as data sources. Thereafter, we estimated the primary broad-scale and high spatial resolution species range maps using the MaxEnt modeling algorithm, and then consulted experts on each taxa to refine these maps.

There are three files in this dataset:
model_metadata.csv - metadata of models and information of species, including species taxonomic information, and model arguments.
range_maps.shp - species range maps in the shapefile format, each species has its own polygon.

title: Micro-scale potentiodynamic polarisation curves of 316L stainless steel

description: This database comprises 5 Potentiodynamic Polarisation (PP) datasets. Each dataset consists of a pair of CSVs: 1 file containing the values of the applied potential scan rate (mV/s); and 1 having the corresponding current density j (µA/cm²) values.

This database was first deployed in the following scientific article, accepted for publication in Corrosion Science journal on 10 March 2023:
"Probing the randomness of the local current distributions of 316L stainless steel corrosion in NaCl solution".

955 PP curves were recorded on the same 316L sample using the Scanning Electrochemical Cell Microscopy (SECCM) in hopping-mode protocol. A total of 12 SECCM sessions were performed, comprising maps with up to 17x17 points (during up to 24 h of continuous measurement). 
Five different combinations of [NaCl] and voltammetric scan rates were employed: 0.005 M NaCl – 100 mV/s, 0.01 M NaCl – 100 mV/s, 0.01 M NaCl – 50 mV/s, 0.05 M NaCl – 100 mV/s, 0.05 M NaCl – 50 mV/s. The number of data samples (j Vs E curves) is 287, 377, 119, 125 and 47 for each dataset. These quantities of curves were considered representative of each testing condition, as the underlying j distributions were continuous. 
The datasets were sliced from 0.5 V Vs Ag/AgCl (considerably more positive than the OCP) upward to avoid the eventual and deleterious occurrence of negative currents. Positive j values were preferred for building histograms and obtaining defined log(j) numbers.
The SECCM experiments were designed to detect low corrosion currents, and the trade-off for such a high signal sensitivity was the I saturation level at 10 nA. In case of missing data points in the anodic sweep data (most often caused by oversaturation at high applied overpotentials), these were replaced by data interpolation (Python pandas interpolate() method, spline). This data-filling procedure was used for a small proportion of the data populations (0%, 0%, 1%, 1% and 11%, respectively, for the datasets with increasing testing aggressiveness). The final shapes of the j Vs E curves were validated against similar curves with unsaturated signals at the relevant E ranges.

title: Hippocampal EEG power, activity and temperature data of control and Cav3.2 deficient mice from long-term and post-urethane recordings

description: Eight Cav3.2+/+ mice (mean age: 124 ± 1 days, all ♂) and eight Cav3.2-/- animals (mean age: 129 ± 4 days, all ♂) were anesthetized using ketamine / xylazine (100/10 mg/kg i.p.) and implanted with a radiofrequency transmitter (TA10ETA-F20, DSI, USA). For experimental details see Weiergräber M. et al. (2005), Lundt A. et al. (2016) and Papazoglou A. et al. (2016). Electroencephalographic recordings were performed using a radiotelemetry set-up (DSI, USA). The hippocampal EEG data from the CA1 region were obtained using deep epoxylite coated tungsten electrodes. EEGs were sampled at a nominal sampling rate of 1000 Hz. Recordings were carried out for two 24 h long-term recordings (R1, R2) with 12 h/12 h light cycle (LC)/ dark cycle (DC)). In addition, two urethane (800 mg/kg i.p.) injections (U1, U2) were performed to selectively induce type II theta activity. All recordings were carried out under non-restraining conditions in ventilated cabinets (under controlled environmental parameters). Data were Fast-Fourier Transformation (FFT) based analysed for relative power (%) of the different frequency bands including delta 1 (0.5-4 Hz), delta 2 (1-4 Hz), theta 1 (4-8 Hz), theta 2 (4-12 Hz), alpha (8-12 Hz), sigma (12-16 Hz), beta 1 (12-30 Hz), beta 2 (16-24 Hz), beta 3 (16-30 Hz), gamma low (30-50 Hz), gamma mid (50-70 Hz), gamma high (70-100 Hz), gamma ripples (80-200 Hz), and gamma fast ripples (200-500 Hz). Relative power values were provided for 2 s epochs. The FFT based approach was carried out via a DSI specific software (Neuroscore, DSI, USA). Activity data represent relative values (see Neuroscore, DSI, USA). Temperature values are provided in °C. As the original Neuroscore raw data file format requires the related software, which is not freely available, the relative power data (%) were exported together with temperature and relative activity values as Excel (.xls) files (see Data section). Ethics Statement All animal experiments were carried out in accordance with the guidelines of the German council on animal care and experimental protocols were approved by the local institutional and national committee on animal care (State Agency for Nature, Environment and Consumer Protection; Landesamt für Natur, Umwelt und Verbraucherschutz, LANUV, Germany, AZ-Nr. 87-51.04.2010.A321). All animal experimentation was further conducted in line with the ARRIVE guidelines, the National Institute of Health Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals (NIH Publications No. 8023, revised 1978) revised 1996 or the UK Animals (Scientific Procedures) Act 1986 and associated guidelines, or the European Communities Council Directive of 24th November 1986 (86/609/EEC) and September 22nd, 2010 (2010/63/EU). Specific effort was made to reduce the number of experimental animals and their suffering (3R strategy).

title: Rank-Based Greedy Model Averaging for High-Dimensional Survival Data

description: Model averaging is an effective way to enhance prediction accuracy. However, most previous works focus on low-dimensional settings with completely observed responses. To attain an accurate prediction for the risk effect of survival data with high-dimensional predictors, we propose a novel method: rank-based greedy (RG) model averaging. Specifically, adopting the transformation model with splitting predictors as working models, we doubly use the smooth concordance index function to derive the candidate predictions and optimal model weights. The final prediction is achieved by weighted averaging all the candidates. Our approach is flexible, computationally efficient, and robust against model misspecification, as it neither requires the correctness of a joint model nor involves the estimation of the transformation function. We further adopt the greedy algorithm for high dimensions. Theoretically, we derive an asymptotic error bound for the optimal weights under some mild conditions. In addition, the summation of weights assigned to the correct candidate submodels is proven to approach one in probability when there are correct models included among the candidate submodels. Extensive numerical studies are carried out using both simulated and real datasets to show the proposed approach’s robust performance compared to the existing regularization approaches. Supplementary materials for this article are available online.

title: data_Terebralia_habitat

description: The epigean gastropod <i>Terebralia palustris</i> is an engineer species of the mangrove ecosystem widely distributed in the Indo-Pacific. Nevertheless, existing knowledge on its distribution remains quite contradictory and suggests highly context-dependent responses. It is found either only in the landward mangrove or in the whole mangrove depending on the location throughout its range. In Mayotte (France, Indian Ocean), a very heterogeneous presence has been observed within the landward mangrove of 13 mangroves out of 29 in 2022. We therefore aimed to understand the distribution of <i>T. palustris</i> in Mayotte in relation to environmental factors and to characterize the habitat heterogeneity from the species’ point of view. To this end, we studied environmental conditions related to feeding, shading, soil quality, and moisture comparing sites of species presence and absence during both dry and wet seasons. Results indicate the landward mangrove is in fact a heterogeneous habitat expressed into five microhabitats differentiated by their vegetation structure, soil organic matter content and elevation on the shore. These microhabitats host the species in varying proportions (density and size). <i>T. palustris </i>is found here because the vegetation provides the shade necessary to avoid desiccation, in particular due to the density and height of the trees. This improved definition of the realized niche of <i>T. palustris</i> makes it possible to understand which habitat must be preserved to ensure the persistence of this species. The species was not always found where these characteristics exist: further studies should explore the reasons for its absence, whether natural (competition/predation) or anthropogenic (pollution/overexploitation).

title: Supplementary Material for: Epigenetic Silencing of the MLH1 Promoter in Relation to the Development of Gastric Cancer and its use as a Biomarker for Patients with Microsatellite Instability: a Systematic Analysis

description: <b><i>Background/Aims:</i></b> Human mutL homolog 1 (<i>MLH1</i>) promoter methylation was reported in gastric cancer (GC). This study determined the clinicopathological, prognostic, and diagnostic effects of <i>MLH1</i> promoter methylation in GC. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> The combined odds ratio (OR) or hazard ratio (HR) and their corresponding 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were calculated. The pooled sensitivity, specificity, and area under the curve (AUC) were analyzed. <b><i>Results:</i></b> A total of 4654 GC patients and 3669 non-malignant controls were identified in this systematic analysis. <i>MLH1</i> promoter methylation was significantly higher in GC samples than in gastric adenomas, chronic gastritis, adjacent tissues, normal gastric mucosa, and normal healthy blood samples, but it exhibited a similar frequency in GC vs. intestinal metaplasia and dysplasia samples. <i>MLH1</i> promoter methylation correlated with age and microsatellite instability (MSI), but it was not associated with gender, <i>H. pylori</i> infection, smoking, drinking behaviors, pathological histology, tumor differentiation, clinical stage, lymph node status, distant metastasis, or overall survival of GC. <i>MLH1</i> promoter methylation exhibited a poor sensitivity value (&lt; 0.5) in patients with GC compared with adjacent tissues, gastric adenomas, chronic gastritis, normal gastric mucosa, and normal healthy blood samples. The pooled sensitivity, specificity, and AUC of <i>MLH1</i> promoter methylation in GC with MSI vs. GC with microsatellite stability (MSS) samples were 0.64, 0.96, and 0.90, respectively. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> Our results suggest that the detection of <i>MLH1</i> promoter methylation may be a potential prognostic biomarker for GC patients with MSI.

title: Supplementary Material for: Hepatocyte Growth Factor Facilitates Esophageal Mucosal Repair and Inhibits the Submucosal Fibrosis in a Rat Model of Esophageal Ulcer

description: <b><i>Background/Aims:</i></b> Esophageal mucosal damage often causes scar tissue, leading to refractory stricture. The aim of this study was to clarify the effect of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) on esophageal mucosal repair and fibrosis leading to stricture in a rat model of esophageal ulcer. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Esophageal ulcers were induced in rats by topical exposure of the lower esophageal serosa to acetic acid, followed by intraperitoneal administration of HGF (200 µg/day) using an osmotic pump for 7 days. The effect of HGF on esophageal mucosal injury was investigated macroscopically and microscopically. The effect of HGF on epithelial cell proliferation and the expression of genes closely associated with the development of fibrosis were also examined. <b><i>Results:</i></b> The administration of HGF for 7 days led to a significant reduction in the ulcerative area and enhanced the proliferation of esophageal epithelial cells. HGF treatment significantly decreased the fibrosis, and subsequently attenuated not only the foreshortening but also the narrowing of the esophagus. The expression levels of <i>tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase (TIMP)-1</i>, <i>-2</i>, and <i>matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2</i>, <i>-9</i> were significantly decreased among rats treated with HGF. <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> HGF facilitates the repair of esophageal mucosal injury and may also ameliorate the esophageal fibrosis, possibly through enhanced re-epithelization.
