Abstract: Local and landscape environmental attributes have been strongly linked to community and population patterns. While landscape context appears to be complementary to local characteristics, the relative importance of local and landscape scales varies according to taxonomic groups. We examined the relative influence of both local and landscape factors on butterfly communities in montane meadows of northeastern California. The strongest patterns in the community were related to three variables. Total butterfly richness and abundance was negatively related to a single landscape variable, the cover of big sagebrush vegetation in the matrix surrounding meadows. The species richness and abundance of meadow specialist butterflies, and the abundance of a single meadow specialist species, Plebejus podarce, was positively related to a single local variable, the cover of obligate wetland plants within meadows. The abundance of Speyeria mormonia and Colias eurytheme, and the abundance of Coenonympha tullia ssp. ampelos and Satyrium behrii were respectively, positively and negatively related to elevation. Local factors explained more o

Pre- to postoperative longitudinal follow-up of phoneme perception in glioma patients : evidence from the Mismatch Negativity and P300

Background and AimsGlioma growth in eloquent language areas induces adaptive activation changes in the language network. The present study aimed to (1) investigate the pre- to postoperative evolution of neural phoneme perception processes in glioma patients and (2) assess if event-related potentials (ERPs) reflecting phoneme perception can provide added value to the diagnostic approach in individuals undergoing awake surgery.Methods and ProceduresIn five persons undergoing an awake craniotomy for the resection of a glioma, pre- and postoperative behavioural language assessment (Aachen Aphasia Test, Comprehensive Aphasia Test and Boston Naming Test) and electrophysiological investigation of phoneme perception was performed. For the latter, ERPs were obtained through the administration of an inattentive (Mismatch Negativity; MMN) and attentive (P300) oddball paradigm containing a phonemic articulation place contrast during EEG recording.Outcomes and ResultsAberrant phoneme categorization processing was evidenced in all five participants preoperatively based on the MMN and P300 amplitude and latency. Moreover, mild behavioural impairments were found in four participants at this time. Postoperatively, three out of five participants reached behavioural ceiling effects, while four individuals displayed normalization of electrophysiological measures.ConclusionsWhile neural processing of phoneme contrasts was preoperatively affected by glioma-induced disturbances, a high potential for postsurgical plasticity was shown. As four participants presented with a high grade glioma, tumour grade might partially account for this pattern. Addition of electrophysiological tests to the language assessment could provide benefits in both the pre- and postoperative clinical diagnostic approach in glioma patients. These preliminary results need validation in a larger sample
