Pre-chewing for weaning: A traditional method for allergy prevention? Rationale, study design, and methods of the open-label trial-Solids-by-Kiss. [PDF]

Pediatr Allergy Immunol
Abstract Background The increase of allergies is attributed to a multi‐factorial pathogenesis. Multi‐gene traits, as well as different environmental factors, are regarded as responsible for shaping the development of atopic entities. The microbiome's composition in particular seems to play a decisive role in allergy prevention and immunological defense.

Premastication-Review of an Infant Feeding Practice and Its Potential Impact on Allergy and Microbiome Development. [PDF]

Allergy
ABSTRACT Premastication, or pre‐chewing, of food as a feeding practice for infants has been practiced across cultures as an ancient evolutionary method. Whilst literature on the topic remains slim, the majority of existing research has highlighted the potential risks, such as transmission of infections.

Eddy Covariance Theory: A Review. [PDF]

Glob Chang Biol
Eddy covariance is often applied using a single tower to measure net ecosystem exchanges of gases and heat‐in other words, to infer the integrated source/sink strengths. ABSTRACT Eddy covariance (EC), the gold standard for measuring ecosystem scale gas and heat exchanges, has transformed our understanding of the breathing of the biosphere, and thus ...

Agronomic Biofertilizer Potential of a Cyanobacterium-Enriched Culture. [PDF]

Physiol Plant
ABSTRACT Microalgae‐ and cyanobacteria‐based biofertilizers are valuable resources for sustainable agricultural practices. Though abundant in soils, their biotechnological potential remains underexplored, with only a few species acknowledged for agricultural applications.

Interpolations of Bargmann Type Measures

Demonstratio Mathematica, 2016
In this paper, we shall discuss Bargmann type measures on C for several classes of probability measures on R. The unified interpolation expressions include not only the classical Bargmann measure and its q-deformation, but also their t-deformations and ...

V_a-Deformed Free Convolution

Mathematics
In this article, we study Va-transformation of a measure and of a convolution (denoted by a) defined for a∈R. We provide significant insights into the stability of the free Meixner family of probability measures under Va-transformation.

Notes on Cauchy–Stieltjes Kernel Families

Axioms
The free Meixner family (FMF) is the family of measures that produces quadratic Cauchy–Stieltjes Kernel (CSK) families (i.e., meaning that the associated variance function (VF) is a polynomial with degree ≤2 in the mean).

${\mathbb{B}}_{\mathit{t}}$-Transformation and Variance Function

Mathematics
This study investigates the Bt-transformation of probability measures within the framework of free probability. A primary focus is the invariance under this transformation of two fundamental families: the free Meixner family and the free analog of the ...

A Common Generalization of the (a,b)- and (s,t)-Transformations of Probability Measures

Axioms
This paper presents two analytic mappings defined on probability measures that extend and unify the (a,b)- and (s,t)-deformations arising in free probability for s, b>0 and a, t∈R.
