From register to digital : a 100-years study of witchhunts around Ac 29
<p>The Ac 29 register of the Waldensian cantonal archives is one of the most famous documents of the repression of witchcraft. It covers about thirty witchcraft prosecutions, which have been studied for more than a hundred years. After having been edited, translated, and commented on, a new stage in the life of this collection has begun. Indeed, it has been entirely tagged according to the recommendations of the TEI and indexed to an online database, which is now accessible via the Sources du Droit Suisse website</p>
Data from: Using automated digital recording systems as effective tools for the monitoring of birds and amphibians
There is a need to improve the quantity and quality of data in biodiversity monitoring projects. We compared an automated digital recording system (ADRS) with traditional methods (point-counts and transects) for the assessment of birds and amphibians. The ADRS proved to produce better quantity and quality of data. This new method has 3 additional advantages: permanent record of a census, 24 h/d data collection and the possibility of automated species identification.
A digital mapping of the literature on vehicle-bridge-wind systems

Novel digital assessment technique used to describe peanut nodulation life history
<p>Biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) in legume root nodules is an important source of N globally. Typically, the quantification of BNF is an estimate of N fixation through techniques such as an acetylene reduction assay or isotopic signatures. However, these methods have large logistical limitations, and do not allow for assessments of the nodule morphology or the nodulation process itself, knowledge that is important to fully understand the BNF process. To provide an updated method of nodulation assessments, peanut (<i>Arachis hypogaea </i>L.) nodules were sampled from a two-year field trial and quantified using scanned images of excised nodules, allowing digital assessment of nodule number and size. Further, a digital color analysis method was developed to assess internal nodule color (a known proxy for nodule BNF activity and senescence). To apply and validate the new method, peanut <span>nodulation</span> trait data was used for an exploration of the relationship between nodulation traits, plant physiological processes, and nitrogen status in the plant, followed by a nodulation life history analysis. The nodulation assessment method was validated by strong correlation with measures of peanut tissue N, biomass, photosynthetic function, and yield. Nodulation life history data suggest novel findings regarding differences in the development of nodules between taproots and lateral roots, contrary to the previous understanding of peanut nodulation life history. This new nodulation assessment method can provide further insight into the BNF process by allowing the collection of detailed data in a relatively simplified manner in field conditions. This dataset represents the nodulation and other variable data collected for this study.</p>
Data from: A method for mapping morphological convergence on three-dimensional digital models: the case of the mammalian saber-tooth
<p>Morphological convergence can be assessed through a variety of statistical methods. None of the methods proposed to date enable the visualization of convergence. All are based on the assumption that the phenotypes either converge, or do not. However, between species, morphologically similar regions of a larger structure may behave differently. Previous approaches do not identify these regions within the larger structures or quantify the degree to which they may contribute to overall convergence. Here we introduce a new method to chart patterns of convergence on three-dimensional models, deployed with the R function conv.map. The convergence between pairs of models is mapped onto them to visualize and quantify the morphological convergence. We applied conv.map to a well-known case study, the saber-tooth morphotype which has evolved independently among distinct mammalian clades, from placentals to metatherians. Although previous authors have concluded that saber-tooths kill using a stabbing 'bite' to the neck, others have presented different interpretations for specific taxa, including the iconic Smilodon and Thylacosmilus. Our objective was to identify any shared morphological features among the saber-tooths that may underpin similar killing behaviours. From a sample of 49 placental and metatherian carnivores, we found stronger convergence among saber-tooths than for any other taxa. We found that the morphological convergence is most apparent in the rostral and posterior parts of the cranium. The extent of this convergence implies similarity in function among these phylogenetically distant species. In our view this function is most likely the killing of relatively large prey by a stabbing bite.</p>
Digital biodiversity datasets reveal breeding phenology and its drivers in a widespread North American mammal
<p>Shifts in reproductive timing are among the most commonly documented responses of organisms to global climate change. However, our knowledge of these responses is biased towards taxa that are easily observable and abundant in existing biodiversity data sets. Mammals are common subjects in reproductive biology, but mammalian phenology and its drivers in the wild remain poorly understood because many species are small, secretive, or labor-intensive to monitor. We took an informatics-based approach to reconstructing breeding phenology in the widespread North American deer mouse (<i>Peromyscus maniculatus</i>) using individual-level reproductive observations from digitized museum specimens and field censuses spanning >100 years and >45 degrees of latitude. We reconstructed female phenology in different regions and tested the importance of three environmental variables (photoperiod, temperature, precipitation) as breeding cues. Photoperiod and temperature were strong positive and negative breeding cues, respectively, while precipitation was not a significant predictor of breeding phenology. However, phenologies and the use of environmental cues varied substantially among regions, and we found evidence that these cueing repertoires are tuned to ecosystem-specific limiting conditions. Our results reiterate the importance of ecological context in optimizing reproduction and demonstrate how harmonization across biodiversity data resources allows new insight into phenology and its drivers in wild mammals.</p>
Data from: Two new species of Limbodessus diving beetles from New Guinea - short verbal descriptions flanked by online content (digital photography, μCT scans, drawings and DNA sequence data)
Background: To date only one species of Limbodessus diving beetles has been reported from the Island of New Guinea, L. compactus (Clark, 1862), which is widerspread in the Australian region. New information: We describe two new species of microendemic New Guinea Limbodessus and use a compact descriptive format flanked by enriched online content in wiki powered species pages. Limbodessus baliem sp.n. is described from ca. 1,600 m altitude in the Baliem Valley of Papua and Limbodessus alexanderi sp.n. from >3,000 m altitude north of Sugapa, Papua. Based on our analysis, we also transfer three species from other genera to Limbodessus Guignot, 1939, with the following changes: Limbodessus deflectus (Ordish, 1966), new combination; Limbodessus leveri (J. Balfour-Browne, 1944), new combination; and Limbodessus plicatus (Sharp, 1882), new combination.
Data from: Can the use of digital algorithms improve quality care? An example from Afghanistan
Background Quality of care is a difficult parameter to measure. With the introduction of digital algorithms based on the Integrated Management of Childhood Illness (IMCI), we are interested to understand if the adherence to the guidelines improved for a better quality of care for children under 5 years old. Methods More than one year after the introduction of digital algorithms, we carried out two cross sectional studies to assess the improvements in comparison with the situation prior to the implementation of the project, in two Basic Health Centres in Kabul province. One survey was carried out inside the consultation room and was based on the direct observation of 181 consultations of children aged 2 months to 5 years old, using a checklist completed by a senior physicians. The second survey queried 181 caretakers of children outside the health facility for their opinion about the consultation carried out through the tablet and prescriptions and medications given. Results We measured the quality of care as adherence to the IMCI's guidelines. The study evaluated the quality of the physical examination and the therapies prescribed with a special attention to antibiotic prescription. We noticed a dramatic improvement (p<0.05) of several indicators following the introduction of digital algorithms. The baseline physical examination was appropriate only for 23.8% [IC% 19.9-28.1] of the patients, 34.5% [IC% 30.0-39.2] received a correct treatment and 86.1% [IC% 82.4-89.2] received at least one antibiotic. With the introduction of digital algorithms, these indicators statistically improved respectively to 84.0% [IC% 77.9-88.6], >85% and less than 30%. Conclusions Our findings suggest that digital algorithms improve quality of care by applying the guidelines more effectively. Our experience should encourage to test this tool in different settings and to scale up its use at province/state level.
Data from: The skull and endocranium of a Lower Jurassic ichthyosaur based on digital reconstructions
Even after 200 years of study, some details of the cranial anatomy of ichthyosaurs, one of the most successful groups of marine vertebrates in the Mesozoic, are still unclear. New information on the braincase, palate and occiput are provided from three-dimensional scans of an exceptionally preserved ichthyosaur ('Hauffiopteryx' typicus) skull from the Toarcian (183–174 Ma, Lower Jurassic) of Strawberry Bank, England. This ichthyosaur has unusual, hollow, tubular hyoid bars. The occipital and braincase region is fully reconstructed, creating the first digital cranial endocast of an ichthyosaur. Enlarged optic lobes and an enlarged cerebellum suggest neuroanatomical adaptations that allowed it to be a highly mobile, visual predator. The olfactory region also appears to be enlarged, suggesting that olfaction was more important for ichthyosaurs than has been assumed. Phylogenetic analysis suggests this ichthyosaur is closely related to, but distinct from, Hauffiopteryx, and positioned within Thunnosauria, a more derived position than previously recovered. These results further our knowledge of ichthyosaur cranial anatomy in three dimensions and provide a platform in which to study the anatomical adaptations that allowed ichthyosaurs to dominate the marine realm during the Mesozoic
Data from: Echolocation detections and digital video surveys provide reliable estimates of the relative density of harbour porpoises
1. Robust estimates of the density or abundance of cetaceans are required to support a wide range of ecological studies and inform management decisions. Considerable effort has been put into the development of line-transect sampling techniques to obtain estimates of absolute density from aerial and boat-based visual surveys. Surveys of cetaceans using acoustic loggers or digital cameras provide alternative methods to estimate relative density that have the potential to reduce cost and provide a verifiable record of all detections. However the ability of these methods to provide reliable estimates of relative density has yet to be established. 2. These methodologies were compared by conducting aerial visual line-transect surveys (n=10 days) and digital video strip-transect surveys (n=4 days) in the Moray Firth, Scotland. Simultaneous acoustic data were collected from moored echolocation detectors (C-PODs) at 58 locations across the study site. Density surface modelling (DSM) of visual survey data was used to estimate spatial variation in relative harbour porpoise density on a 4x4 km grid. DSM was also performed on the digital survey data, and the resulting model output compared to that from visual survey data. Estimates of relative density from visual surveys around acoustic monitoring sites were compared with several metrics previously used to characterise variation in acoustic detections of echolocation clicks. 3. There was a strong correlation between estimates of relative density from visual surveys and digital video surveys (Spearman's ρ=0.85). A correction to account for animals missed on the transect line (previously calculated for visual aerial surveys of harbour porpoise in the North Sea (Hammond et al. 2013)) was used to convert relative density from the visual surveys to absolute density. This allowed calculation of the first estimate of a proxy for detection probability in digital video surveys, suggesting that 61% (CV=0.53) of harbour porpoises were detected. There was also a strong correlation between acoustic detections and density with a Spearman's ρ=0.73 for detection positive hours. 4. These results provide confidence in the emerging use of digital video and acoustic surveys for studying the density of small cetaceans and their responses to environmental and anthropogenic change.
Assessing the feasibility of a rapid, high-volume cervical cancer screening program using HPV self-sampling and digital colposcopy in rural regions of Yunnan, China
<p>Objective: Implementation of a novel, rapid, high-volume, see-and-treat cervical cancer screening program utilizing self-swab HPV testing and digital colposcopy in underserved regions of Yunnan China.</p> <p>Design: 500-1000 women per day self-swabbed for high-risk HPV (hrHPV+). Four careHPVTM machines (Qiagen) were run simultaneously to test the specimens. All hrHPV+ patients were contacted the same day and digital colposcopy (DC) was performed with the EVA system (MobileODT). Digital images were obtained, and all suspected lesions were biopsied and then treated.</p> <p>Setting: Rural and underserved areas of the Yunnan province, Kunming municipality.</p> <p>Participants: 3600 women, mean age 50.2 years, who had never been screened for cervical cancer. The women were of the Yi, Hui, Dai, and Han ethnicities.</p> <p>Interventions: Cryotherapy was performed on all lesions suspicious for CIN1 and LEEP was performed on all lesions suspicious CIN2+. ECC was performed if the transformation zone was not fully visualized.</p> <p>Results: 216 women (6%) were hrHPV+. 168 underwent same-day colposcopy (23 CIN1, 17 CIN2+). DC was able to identify 15 of 16 (93.8%) CIN2+ lesions.</p> <p>Conclusions: Currently, China does not have national screening guidelines or services for cervical cancer. Only 20.7% of Chinese women reported having ever been screened.</p> <p>This study illustrates a cost- effective, rapid and practical strategy that can be used to screen-and-treat 400+ million Chinese women for cervical cancer. First, HPV self-sampling allows large numbers of women to be screened rapidly and inexpensively and only +hrHPV women require further evaluation. Digital colposcopy is then performed on +hrHPV women with a portable digital colposcope. The high-resolution images obtained during DC then facilitates appropriate same-day treatment as they are able to accurately distinguish between CIN1 and CIN2+ lesions. Additionally, DC adds little to the time and cost of screening and produces permanent images that can be used for documentation, quality control, and expert consultation via a secure cloud-based portal.</p>
Data from: Establishing macroecological trait datasets: digitalization, extrapolation, and validation of diet preferences in terrestrial mammals worldwide
Ecological trait data are essential for understanding the broad-scale distribution of biodiversity and its response to global change. For animals, diet represents a fundamental aspect of species' evolutionary adaptations, ecological and functional roles, and trophic interactions. However, the importance of diet for macroevolutionary and macroecological dynamics remains little explored, partly because of the lack of comprehensive trait datasets. We compiled and evaluated a comprehensive global dataset of diet preferences of mammals ("MammalDIET"). Diet information was digitized from two global and cladewide data sources and errors of data entry by multiple data recorders were assessed. We then developed a hierarchical extrapolation procedure to fill-in diet information for species with missing information. Missing data were extrapolated with information from other taxonomic levels (genus, other species within the same genus, or family) and this extrapolation was subsequently validated both internally (with a jack-knife approach applied to the compiled species-level diet data) and externally (using independent species-level diet information from a comprehensive continentwide data source). Finally, we grouped mammal species into trophic levels and dietary guilds, and their species richness as well as their proportion of total richness were mapped at a global scale for those diet categories with good validation results. The success rate of correctly digitizing data was 94%, indicating that the consistency in data entry among multiple recorders was high. Data sources provided species-level diet information for a total of 2033 species (38% of all 5364 terrestrial mammal species, based on the IUCN taxonomy). For the remaining 3331 species, diet information was mostly extrapolated from genus-level diet information (48% of all terrestrial mammal species), and only rarely from other species within the same genus (6%) or from family level (8%). Internal and external validation showed that: (1) extrapolations were most reliable for primary food items; (2) several diet categories ("Animal," "Mammal," "Invertebrate," "Plant," "Seed," "Fruit," and "Leaf") had high proportions of correctly predicted diet ranks; and (3) the potential of correctly extrapolating specific diet categories varied both within and among clades. Global maps of species richness and proportion showed congruence among trophic levels, but also substantial discrepancies between dietary guilds. MammalDIET provides a comprehensive, unique and freely available dataset on diet preferences for all terrestrial mammals worldwide. It enables broad-scale analyses for specific trophic levels and dietary guilds, and a first assessment of trait conservatism in mammalian diet preferences at a global scale. The digitalization, extrapolation and validation procedures could be transferable to other trait data and taxa.
