Link prediction in ecological meta‐networks under extreme taxonomic bias
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Ecological networks offer powerful insights into community function but, without first characterizing these networks accurately, our ability to detect and interpret changes under environmental stress is limited. We develop an extension of the Covariate‐Informed Link Prediction (COIL) framework to reduce bias in ecological link prediction when ...

Assessing Spatiotemporal Side Effects of Diversionary Feeding on Mesopredators
Animal Conservation, EarlyView.We tested whether diversionary feeding alters the space use, aggregation, or activity patterns of mesopredators using a treatment‐control design with camera traps. Although both species frequently used feeding stations, diversionary feeding did not significantly affect their spatial distribution, aggregation, or temporal behaviour.

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.In an urban‐adjacent forested area, we investigated the spatial and temporal distribution of the wild mammal community in relation to day‐to‐day fluctuations of human presence occurring between working days and weekends. We deployed 52 camera‐traps systematically within an EU Natura 2000 area located within the metropolitan area of Florence, central ...

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.The potential impact of bat species extinction on the number of their ectoparasitic fly species, based on interaction data for Brazil. As bat host species are removed over time, more connected species (green) would experience steeper declines and lead to greater ectoparasite losses when compared to a random extinction model (gray).

Global habitat suitability and invasion risk of melon thrips
Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.Habitat suitability of Thrips palmi worldwide was predicted using the MaxEnt model. Precipitation of the driest month, precipitation of the wettest month and annual mean temperature were identified as the key climatic drivers influencing its distribution.

Allergy, EarlyView.Exhaled decane and nonadecane discriminate allergic (AR + LAR) from non‐allergic (NAR + HC) subjects among individuals with chronic rhinitis. LAR patients display higher levels of exhaled nonadecane than NAR individuals at baseline. Subjects with FeNO≥ 25 ppb have higher levels of exhaled decane, nonanal, and styrene than individuals with FeNO < 25 ppb

The Evolution of Sesame Seed Allergy Over Time
Allergy, EarlyView.This study analyzes the natural history of sesame over time and the changes in biomarkers between sesame allergic and sesame sensitised but tolerant children. The period prevalence of sesame allergy increased from 0.5% between 12 and 36 m to 1.5% between 7 and 12 y children in the EAT‐On study with 10 children developing new sesame allergy. Sesame‐sIgE

Navigating Oral Food Challenges in Clinical Trials to Keep the Science Moving Forward
Allergy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The oral food challenge (OFC) has long been the reference standard for food allergy diagnosis, as well as to confirm natural development of oral tolerance. The utilization of OFCs has significantly broadened from its role in defining disease to defining participant eligibility, individual allergen reactivity thresholds and treatment outcomes ...
