Modified rush venom immunotherapy in dogs with Hymenoptera hypersensitivity
Background – Hymenoptera envenomation occurs frequently in people and dogs and can trigger anaphylaxis. Venom immunotherapy (VIT) is the only preventative treatment for Hymenoptera hypersensitivity and is indicated for people with severe adverse reactions to insect stings. Rush VIT is an accelerated VIT induction schedule performed in people.

Abstract Parenting interventions can improve parenting outcomes, with widespread implications for children's developmental trajectories. Relational savoring (RS) is a brief attachment‐based intervention with high potential for dissemination. Here we examine data from a recent intervention trial in order to isolate the mechanisms by which savoring ...

Background – Because of the increased incidence of multidrug‐resistant (MDR) bacteria, the use of disinfectants over antibiotics has been encouraged. However, the interactions between disinfectants and host local immunity are poorly understood. Objective – To assess the effects of chlorhexidine digluconate (Chx), with and without selected host defence ...

Discrepancies in the bilateral intradermal test and serum tests in atopic horses
Background – In equine atopic patients intradermal testing (IDT) and immunoglobulin (Ig)E serology are used frequently. There is little evidence regarding the reproducibility of the IDT and IgE serology in horses. Objectives – To compare the results of a simultaneously performed IDT on the left and right side of the neck in atopic horses, and to ...

Background Bacterial densities likely fluctuate during infection and may exceed the bacterial density used in susceptibility testing. As such, investigation of bacterial killing by antibiotics over a range of varying bacterial densities may provide important differences between compounds and could impact drug selection for therapy.

Simple study designs in ecology produce inaccurate estimates of biodiversity responses
We suggest that more investment in more robust designs is needed in ecology since inferences from simpler designs, even with large sample sizes may be misleading. Facilitating this requires longer‐term funding and stronger research–practice partnerships. We also propose ‘accuracy weights’ and demonstrate how they can weight studies in three recent meta‐

ABSTRACT Latina immigrant women are vulnerable to traumatic stress and sexual health disparities. Without autonomy over their reproductive health and related decision‐making, reproductive justice is elusive. We analyzed behavioral health data from 175 Latina immigrant participants (M age = 35; range = 18–64) of the International Latino Research ...

Background– Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) may cause suppurative otitis externa with severe inflammation and ulceration in dogs. Multidrug resistance is commonly reported for this organism, creating a difficult therapeutic challenge. Objective– The aim of this study was to evaluate the in vitro antimicrobial activity of a gel containing 0.5 µg/mL of ...

Integral mean estimates for polynomials whose zeros are within a circle
Let p(z) be a polynomial of degree n having all its zeros in |z| ≤ k; k ≤ 1, then for each r > 0, p > 1, q > 1 with p−1 + q−1 = 1, Aziz and Ahemad (1996) recently proved that n{∫02π|p(eiθ)|rdθ} 1/r≤{∫02π|1+keiθ|prdθ} 1/pr{∫02π|p′(eiθ)|qrdθ} 1/qr. In this paper, we extend the above inequality to the class of polynomials p(z)=anzn+∑v=μnan−vzn−v;1≤μ≤n ...

Co‐convexial reflector curves with applications
The concept of reflector curves for convex compact sets of reflecting type in the complex plane was introduced by the authors in a recent paper (to appear in J. Math. Anal. and Appln.) in their attempt to solve a problem related to Stieltjes and Van Vleck polynomials. Though, in the said paper, certain convex compact sets (e.g.
