Range expansion of the greater white-toothed shrew Crocidura russula in Switzerland results in local extinction of the bicoloured white-toothed shrew C-leucodon

The distribution limits of Crocidura russula (Hermann, 1780) and C. leucodon (Hermann, 1780) were investigated during an interval of 25 years in the bottom of the Rhone valley above Lake Geneva, Switzerland (total data set: 105 spatio-temporal occurrences, 1137 shrews). In 1975, the contact zone between the two species was situated in the region of Martigny. In 1999/2000, new sampling revealed three results: (1) The contact zone showed an upward shift of about 25 km. (2) In the expanded range of C. russula, the resident species has totally disappeared (confirmed by owl pellets analysis). (3) This demonstrates a dominance of C, russula over C. leucodon. Three hypotheses which may explain the range expansion of C. russula were evaluated: (1) habitat modification favouring linear dispersal due to the construction of a highway; (2) temporal event favoured by climate fluctuations, or (3) ongoing postglacial colonisation of Europe. Hypothesis 1 was rejected, because the progression of the shrews anticipated the construction. Hypothesis 3 received only weak support because range limits of C. russula in the region of Nice have been stable for thousands of years. Therefore hypothesis 2, admitting that ongoing climate change has facilitated range expansion, is the most probable.

Prevalences of masked and white-coat hypertension in the Lausanne population: the Hercules Study

Background and Objectives: Few population-based data on the prevalences of masked and white-coat hypertension exist. We collected 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure (BP) and urine in a random subset of participants to the population-based CoLaus study. Methods: Clinic BP was measured using an Omron HEM 907 device and ambulatory BP (ABP) using a Diasys Integra device. Masked hypertension (MH) was defined as clinic BP < 140/90mm Hg and 24-hour ABP >¼135/85mmHg. White coat hypertension (WCH) was defined as clinic BP >¼ 140/90mm Hg and ABP <135/85mm Hg. Microalbuminuria was defined as present if urinary albumin excretion was > 20mg/min. Results: The 198 men and 213 women were aged (mean_SD) 56.2_10.7 and 57.2_10.3 years and had mean urinary excretion of 148_65 and 122_52 mmol/24 h for sodium and 70_24 and 5721 mmol/24 h for potassium, respectively. In men and women, the prevalences were 34.9% and 31.0% for clinic hypertension, 42.9% and 32.9% for ambulatory hypertension, 12.6% and 5.6% for MH, and 4.5% and 3.8% for WCH, respectively. The higher prevalence of MH in men was explained, in part, by higher alcohol consumption and smoking. Participants with MH tended to have higher microalbuminuria (13.5% vs 5.8%, P¼0.067). Participants with WCH had no microalbuminuria. Conclusions: In the Lausanne population aged 38 to 78 years, the prevalence of hypertension based on ABP was high, despite moderate dietary salt intake. Men had higher prevalence of MH then women. The prevalence of WCH was low and similar in men and women. MH tended to be associated with early kidney damage.
