title: A new halisaurine mosasaur (Squamata: Halisaurinae) from Japan: the first record in the western Pacific realm and the first documented insights into binocular vision in mosasaurs

description: A specimen of a halisaurine mosasaur is reported from Japan for the first time, closing the pre-existing biogeographical gap between the Middle East and the eastern Pacific. <i>Phosphorosaurus ponpetelegans</i> sp. nov., from the lowermost Maastrichtian of Hokkaido, has been assigned to the genus <i>Phosphorosaurus</i> for sharing the following suite of major cranial characters with <i>P</i>. <i>ortliebi</i>, the type species from Belgium: apex of posterodorsal triangular plateau on frontal reaching level of interorbital constriction; frontal lateral border forming a step-like junction between interorbital and preorbital segments of frontal; preorbital segment of frontal sloping anteroventrally; and stapedial meatus parallel-sided in latero-medial view. Potential autapomorphies that distinguish <i>P</i>. <i>ponpetelegans</i> from other members of Halisaurinae include: postorbitofrontal jugal process elongate and stalk-like, projecting laterally; this process distally bearing a ventrally facing depression for jugal articulation; and lateral surangular–articular suture angular rather than round. The long and laterally projecting jugal processes, when combined with a depressed as well as narrow snout, provide compelling evidence for well-developed binocular vision for the new mosasaur, with an estimated binocular field of view (BFoV) of 35°. This value is unusually high for non-ophidian squamates that typically exhibit a BFoV of 10—20°, and is higher than those of other measured mosasaur taxa by at least 5°. Among colubrid snakes, nocturnal species exhibit greater BFoV than diurnal ones in both arboreal and terrestrial taxa. Known also from the Maastrichtian of Hokkaido are fossils of lantern fish (myctophids) and 10-armed cephalopods (coleoids), both of which are typically bioluminescent today. It is hence proposed that the exceptionally large, forward-facing eyes of <i>P</i>. <i>ponpetelegans</i> may well have been a special adaptation for a nocturnal lifestyle, where they hunted small, bioluminescent prey at night while avoiding direct competition with larger, more piscine mosasaurine taxa such as <i>Mosasaurus hobetsuensis</i> that co-existed with <i>P</i>. <i>ponpetelegans</i>. http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:3EF73BE7-B3FE-4441-BA5E-29C5D5FCCBC9

Two taxonomic changes are proposed, <i>Karataoserphus sinicus</i> (Ping) comb. nov. and <i>Beipiaoserphus meridionalis</i> (Rasnitsyn) comb. nov. In addition, <i>Turgoserphus</i> Rasnitsyn, 1990, <i>Otlia</i> J. F. Zhang, 1992, <i>Oxyuroserphus</i> Rasnitsyn, 1994 and <i>Codoserphus</i> Shi <i>et al</i>. 2013 should be considered family incertae sedis due to their hind wings lacking clear diagnostic venation and ovipositor possibly internalized. A key to the genera of Mesoserphidae is provided and morphological classification characters are summarized. Phylogenetic analysis using 22 morphological characters, 18 mesoserphid ingroups and two outgroups indicate that the subfamilies Mesoserphinae and Karataoserphinae should be abandoned. Basal mesoserphids originated in north-eastern China and subsequently spread to other regions. Species of Mesoserphidae with forewing venational pattern of ‘type aa’ existed from the Middle Jurassic to the Early Cretaceous. http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:2F8A0A38-910B-4855-8E43-454603FD4060

title: Supplementary Material for: Prevalence of Sickle Cell Trait and Reliability of Self-Reported Status among Expectant Parents in Nigeria: Implications for Targeted Newborn Screening

description: <i>Background/Aims:</i> Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a life-threatening, autosomal recessive blood disorder prevalent in sub-Saharan Africa. We identified the prevalence of sickle cell trait (SCT) among pregnant women and their male partners in Enugu State, Nigeria, and determined the accuracy of self-reported sickle cell status and its reliability for identifying high-risk newborns for targeted screening. <i>Methods:</i> We conducted a nested cohort study of expectant parents enrolled in the Healthy Beginning Initiative (HBI). The HBI is a cluster-randomized trial of a congregation-based approach designed to increase HIV testing. Participants completed a survey regarding self-awareness of their sickle cell genotype and consented to genotype screening by cellulose acetate electrophoresis. <i>Results:</i> SCT prevalence (HbAS) was 22% (746/3,371). Only 50% of participants provided an accurate self-report. Self-report accuracy was significantly different (p &lt; 0.0001) between individuals who reported having SCT or SCD (61% accuracy) versus those who reported not having SCT or SCD (86% accuracy). Demographic variables including gender, age, household size, employment, education, and home location were significantly associated with providing an accurate self-report. <i>Conclusions:</i> Low numbers of accurate parental self-reports, coupled with a high SCT prevalence in Nigeria, could limit the efficacy of targeted newborn screening. However, our data indicate that it is feasible to integrate sickle cell screening for pregnant women with existing, community-based health care programs developed by the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), such as the HBI. Expanding screening programs could enable the development of targeted newborn screening based on maternal genotype that could identify all newborns with SCD in resource-limited settings.

title: Supplementary Material for: Differential Progression of Midbrain Atrophy in Parkinsonism: Longitudinal MRI Study

description: <i>Aims:</i> To elucidate different patterns of progression of midbrain atrophy in patients with Richardson's syndrome (RS), progressive supranuclear palsy-parkinsonism (PSP-P), and Parkinson's disease (PD) using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based visual rating indexes. <i>Methods:</i> We recruited 12 patients with PSP-RS, 12 with PSP-P, and 23 with PD for whom MRIs had been followed up for at least 2 years (mean ± SD, 4.9 ± 1.6 years) after the initial MRI. MRI-based visual rating indexes were used to estimate midbrain atrophy, including the ratio of the pontine to midbrain tegmental areas (P/M ratio) on a midsagittal image, the length between the interpeduncular fossa and the center of the cerebral aqueduct at the midmammillary-body level (MTEGM) on axial images, and the morning glory sign. <i>Results:</i> Initially, there were no differences in MRI-based visual rating indexes between PSP-P and PD, while PSP-RS showed a higher P/M ratio and lower MTEGM compared with PSP-P and PD. In PD, the P/M ratio and MTEGM remained stable with disease progression. However, the extent of changes between initial and follow-up indexes was similarly greater for both PSP-RS and PSP-P than for PD. Finally, PSP-P showed a higher P/M ratio and lower MTEGM compared with PD in the follow-up, while PSP-RS still exhibited the most profound changes.<i>Conclusions:</i> Midbrain atrophy progresses differentially in patients with PSP-RS, PSP-P, and PD. Longitudinal measurements of midbrain atrophy using MRI-based visual rating indexes can help distinguish patients with PSP-P from those with PSP-RS and PD.

title: Supplementary Material for: Effect of an Outreach Programme on Vandetanib Safety in Medullary Thyroid Cancer

description: <i>Objectives:</i> Effective management of adverse events (AEs) following vandetanib treatment is important to maximize clinical benefits. We examined whether more frequent contact with vandetanib-treated patients reduced AEs of CTCAE grade 2 or higher. <i>Study Design:</i> In this open-label, multicentre, phase III study, patients with locally advanced or metastatic medullary thyroid cancer were randomized to a patient outreach programme (outreach) or a standard AE monitoring schedule (vandetanib control) for 52 weeks. In addition to standard AE monitoring, patients in the outreach arm were contacted every 2 weeks by telephone/during their clinic visit for specific AE questioning related to diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting, fatigue, headache and rash. Patients received vandetanib at 200 or 300 mg/day, depending on the creatinine levels at screening. <i>Results:</i> Altogether, 205 patients were randomized (outreach, n = 103; vandetanib control, n = 102). This study did not meet its primary objective; the mean percentage of time patients experienced at least one AE of grade 2 or higher was higher for the outreach group (51.65%) than for the vandetanib control group (45.19%); the difference was not statistically significant (t statistic: 1.29; 95% CI -3.44 to 16.37%; p = 0.199). The most frequently reported AEs were diarrhoea (56.9% for the outreach group vs. 46.6% for the vandetanib controls), hypertension (36.3 vs. 31.1%), rash (25.5 vs. 24.3%) and nausea (25.5% vs. 18.4%), and the most frequently reported AEs of grade 2 or higher were hypertension (33.3 vs. 23.3%), diarrhoea (26.5 vs. 24.3%) and dermatitis acneiform (11.8 vs. 9.7%). <i>Conclusions:</i> Additional outreach to patients treated with vandetanib had no impact on the rate or severity of AEs compared to the standard AE monitoring schedule. AEs were consistent with the known safety profile of vandetanib.
