Pigeon breeder's disease: the clinical spectrum and humoral response; an investigation of the nature and extent of extrinsic allergic alveolitis due to pigeon-derived antigens among pigeon fanciers continuing to pursue the pastime, with particular reference to early clinical and humoral-mediated responses following exposure [PDF]
, 1986 This thesis examines the relationships between the clinical manifestations of Pigeon Breeder's Disease among active pigeon fanciers, and the associated humoral responses to pigeon -derived antigens.

Surfactant protein A in chronic extrinsic allergic alveolitis: Table 1– [PDF]
European Respiratory Journal, 2012 To the Editors: The chronic form of extrinsic allergic alveolitis (EAA) may have some common features with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). The clinical, radiological and histopathological presentation of both diseases may be similar. Surfactant protein (SP)-A can be detected in serum of patients with IPF and concentrations of SP-A were found to ...

Bayesian Stacked Parametric Survival with Frailty Components and Interval Censored Failure Times [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 To better understand effects of exposure to food allergens, food challenge studies are designed to slowly increase the dose of an allergen delivered to allergic individuals until an objective reaction occurs. These dose-to-failure studies are used to determine acceptable intake levels and are analyzed using parametric failure time models.
