Model outputs and species-level data for "Functional traits and climate drive interspecific differences in disturbance-induced tree mortality"

<p>This repository is divided in three sub-directories:&nbsp;</p> <ul> <li><em><strong>sensitivity </strong></em>contains the posterior of each parameter estimated by&nbsp;the bayesian mortality model in a rdata file. This file was generated by the script https://github.com/jbarrere3/SalvageModel/tree/withFinland</li> <li><em><strong>climate </strong></em>contains for each tree species the climatic variables (mean annual temperature, minimum annual temperature and annual precipitation) extracted from CHELSA and the disturbance-related climatic indices (Fire Weather Index, Snow Water Equivalent and Gust Wind Speed)</li> <li><em><strong>traits </strong></em>contains the traits calculated directly with&nbsp;NFI data (bark thickness, height to dbh ratio, maximum growth), and a text file with the Species and Trait ID to request to TRY database.&nbsp;</li> </ul> <p>The content of this repository can be used to reproduce the analyses of the paper, with the script stored in&nbsp; in&nbsp;https://github.com/jbarrere3/DisturbancePaper</p> <p><strong>Edit (19/09/2023):</strong> A minor coding error was found in the pre-formatted data of the paper, which did not affect the main results&nbsp;but led to minor change in the value of the posterior estimates. An updated version of the posterior estimates of this dataset was made available at&nbsp;https://zenodo.org/record/8358921.&nbsp;</p>

Data from: Computational model of the full-length TSH receptor

<p>The receptor for thyroid stimulating hormone (TSHR), a GPCR, is of particular interest as the primary antigen in autoimmune hyperthyroidism (Graves' disease) caused by stimulating TSHR antibodies. To date, only one domain of the extracellular region of the TSHR has been crystallized. We have run a 1000ns Molecular Dynamic simulation on a model of the entire TSHR generated by merging the extracellular region of the receptor, obtained using artificial intelligence, with our recent homology model of the transmembrane domain, embedded it in a lipid membrane solvated it with water and counterions. The simulations showed that the structure of the transmembrane and leucine-rich domains were remarkably constant while the linking region (LR), known more commonly as the "hinge region", showed significant flexibility, forming several transient secondary structural elements. Furthermore, the relative orientation of the leucine-rich domain with the rest of the receptor was also seen to be variable. These data suggest that this linker region is an intrinsically disordered protein (IDP). Furthermore, preliminary data simulating the full TSHR model complexed with its ligand (TSH) showed that (a) there is a strong affinity between the linker region and TSH ligand and (b) the association of the linker region and the TSH ligand reduces the structural fluctuations in the linker region. This full-length model illustrates the importance of the linker region in responding to ligand binding and lays the foundation for studies of pathologic TSHR autoantibodies complexed with the TSHR to give further insight into their interaction with the flexible linker region.</p> <p>The dataset represents the coordinates of a model of the Thyroid Stimulating Hormone Recpetor (TSHR) built from the AI-based alphafold2 model of the TSHR ectodomain and the MD geverated model of the transmembrane domain (TMD) of TSHR.</p>

Raw Data for the article: Impact of the Organizational Model Adopted during the COVID-19 Pandemic on the Perceived Safety of Intensive Care Unit Staff

<p><strong>Background:&nbsp;</strong>The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic had a devastating health, social, and economic effect on the population. Organizational, technical and structural operations aimed at protecting staff, outpatients and inpatients were implemented in an Italian hospital with a COVID-19 dedicated intensive care unit. The impact of the organizational model adopted on the perceived safety among staff was evaluated.</p> <p><strong>Methods:&nbsp;</strong>Descriptive, structured and voluntary, anonymous, non-funded, self-administered cross-sectional surveys on the impact of the organizational model adopted during COVID-19 on the perceived safety among staff.</p> <p><strong>Results:&nbsp;</strong>Response rate to the survey was 67.4% (153 completed surveys). A total of 91 (59%) of respondents had more than three years of ICU experience, while 16 (10%) were employed for less than one year. Group stratification according to profession: 74 nurses (48%); 12 medical-doctors (7%); 11 physiotherapists (7%); 35 nurses-aides (22%); 5 radiology-technicians (3%); 3 housekeeping (1%); 13 other (8%). The organizational model implemented at ISMETT made them feel safe during their workday. A total of 113 (84%) agreed or strongly agreed with the sense of security resulting from the implemented measures. A vast majority of respondents perceived COVID-19 as a dangerous and deadly disease (94%) not only for themselves but even more as vectors towards their families (79%). A total of 55% of staff took isolation measures and moved away from their home by changing personal habits. The organizational model was perceived overall as appropriate (91%) to guarantee their health.</p> <p><strong>Conclusion:&nbsp;</strong>The vast majority of respondents perceived the overall model applied during an unexpected, emergency situation as appropriate.</p>

Raw Data for the article: Mortality after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt in older adult patients with cirrhosis: A validated prediction model

<p><strong>Background and aims:&nbsp;</strong>Implantation of a transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) improves survival in patients with cirrhosis with refractory ascites and portal hypertensive bleeding. However, the indication for TIPS in older adult patients (greater than or equal to 70 years) is debated, and a specific prediction model developed in this particular setting is lacking. The aim of this study was to develop and validate a multivariable model for an accurate prediction of mortality in older adults.</p> <p><strong>Approach and results:&nbsp;</strong>We prospectively enrolled 411 consecutive patients observed at four referral centers with de novo TIPS implantation for refractory ascites or secondary prophylaxis of variceal bleeding (derivation cohort) and an external cohort of 415 patients with similar indications for TIPS (validation cohort). Older adult patients in the two cohorts were 99 and 76, respectively. A cause-specific Cox competing risks model was used to predict liver-related mortality, with orthotopic liver transplant and death for extrahepatic causes as competing events. Age, alcoholic etiology, creatinine levels, and international normalized ratio in the overall cohort, and creatinine and sodium levels in older adults were independent risk factors for liver-related death by multivariable analysis.</p> <p><strong>Conclusions:&nbsp;</strong>After TIPS implantation, mortality is increased by aging, but TIPS placement should not be precluded in patients older than 70 years. In older adults, creatinine and sodium levels are useful predictors for decision making. Further efforts to update the prediction model with larger sample size are warranted.</p>

Data from: Modeling the evolution of rates of continuous trait evolution

<p>Rates of phenotypic evolution vary markedly across the tree of life, from the accelerated evolution apparent in adaptive radiations to the remarkable evolutionary stasis exhibited by so-called "living fossils". Such rate variation has important consequences for large-scale evolutionary dynamics, generating vast disparities in phenotypic diversity across space, time, and taxa. Despite this, most methods for estimating trait evolution rates assume rates vary deterministically with respect to some variable of interest or change infrequently during a clade's history. These assumptions may cause underfitting of trait evolution models and mislead hypothesis testing. Here, we develop a new trait evolution model that allows rates to vary gradually and stochastically across a clade. Further, we extend this model to accommodate generally decreasing or increasing rates over time, allowing for flexible modeling of "early/late bursts" of trait evolution. We implement a Bayesian method, termed "evolving rates" (evorates for short), to efficiently fit this model to comparative data. Through simulation, we demonstrate that evorates can reliably infer both how and in which lineages trait evolution rates varied during a clade's history. We apply this method to body size evolution in cetaceans, recovering substantial support for an overall slowdown in body size evolution over time with recent bursts among some oceanic dolphins and relative stasis among beaked whales of the genus Mesoplodon. These results unify and expand on previous research, demonstrating the empirical utility of evorates.</p>
