The economic foundations of powersharing: Evidence from Africa
American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.Abstract
How—and with whom—do rulers share power? Existing research focuses on the strategic logic of powersharing. In this paper, we analyze its economic foundations. Powersharing is modeled as a subnational fiscal contract, in which rulers allocate political representation based on constituencies’ revenue potential. Empirically, we combine historical Yannick I.

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.

Revista de Paz y Conflictos, 2015 The current study explored violence against women in the Palestinian society as a multidimensional phenomenon. An index of a 60-item scale (developed by the researcher) used to measure violence against women was administrated to three hundred and sixty ...Bassam Yousef Ibrahim Banatdoaj 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 ...Edwin H.

Allergy, EarlyView.The basophil activation test (using the activation marker CD203c) was the only test able to both exclude and confirm sesame seed allergy with precision. A negative skin prick test to sesame extract or tahini and undetectable IgE to Ses i 1 could not rule out sesame seed allergy.Ru‐Xin Foong, Irene Bartha, Holly Boyd, Andreina Marques‐Mejias, Suzana Radulovic, Marta Krawiec, Faye Harrison, Malak Eghleilib, Grammatiki Antoneria, Zainab Jama, Matthew Kwok, Vasco Claro, Cristian Ricci, Tom Marrs, Gideon Lack, George Du Toit, Alexandra F.

Allergy, EarlyView.Longer asthma duration is associated with increased airway non‐T2 inflammation and reduced airway and systemic T2 inflammation. Sputum CXCL9 is independently associated with duration and may predict a reduced poor response to anti‐IL‐4Rα therapy. Airway sampling and combined T2 and non‐T2 targeted strategies may be needed in long‐standing asthma. CXCL9,Freda Yang, Sujin Seo, Takehiro Hasegawa, Chloe I.

Allergy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT
Basophils, the least abundant leukocytes, are increasingly recognised as potent immunomodulators. Upon activation, they rapidly release preformed granule‐associated mediators including histamine and lipid mediators such as LTC4, while cytokine production occurs over a longer timescale, contributing to downstream immune responses.Jitesh Chauhan, Sofia Vlasova, Alicia Chenoweth, Debra H.
