A Walk in the Park: Influence of Natural Co‐Exposure to Grass Pollen and Fungal Spores on Nasal Mycobiome and Cytokine Responses

open access: yesClinical &Experimental Allergy, EarlyView.
Volunteers stayed 3 h indoors and followed 1 h outdoors in a flowering meadow. Nasal mycobiome was analysed and aeroallergen content measured in nasal filters. Airborne fungal spores were quantified and fungal isolates were sequenced. Isolated fungal spores were used for stimulation of nasal epithelial cells.

Dilaton constraints and LHC prospects

open access: yes, 2011
The Standard Model Higgs searches using the first 1-2 fb-1 of LHC data can be used to put interesting constraints on new scalar particles other than the Higgs.

Disability, Pregnancy, and Child Protective Services: Experiences of Birthing People in Ontario, Canada

open access: yesChild &Family Social Work, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We explored disabled birthing parents' fear of, and involvement with, child protective services in the perinatal period, including how such experiences impacted their prenatal, birth, and postpartum care. Birthing parents with a physical, sensory, and/or intellectual or developmental disability were recruited in Ontario, Canada, and completed ...

Measuring the Higgs to Photon-Photon Branching Ratio at the Next Linear $e^+e^-$ Collider

open access: yes, 1996
We examine the prospects for measuring the photon-photon branching ratio of a Standard-Model-like Higgs boson ($h$) at the Next Linear $e^+e^-$ Collider when the Higgs boson is produced via $W^+W^-$--fusion: $e^+e^-\to\nu_e \bar\nu_e h$.

A nested mixture model for protein identification using mass spectrometry

open access: yes, 2010
Mass spectrometry provides a high-throughput way to identify proteins in biological samples. In a typical experiment, proteins in a sample are first broken into their constituent peptides.

Perianal tuberculosis: A rare disease of late diagnosis

open access: yesJournal of Coloproctology, 2014
Tuberculosis remains a public health problem and its rare extrapulmonary forms persist with late diagnosis, which delays the diagnosis and favors the dissemination of the disease.

News shocks, consumer confidence and business cycles

open access: yesEconomica, EarlyView.
Abstract We study the causal effects of consumer sentiment shocks on macroeconomic aggregates. By constructing a novel instrument based on major non‐economic news shocks in the USA over 1969–2022, and opinion polls around these events, we identify exogenous changes in consumer confidence.

Living on the edge – physiological tolerance to frost and drought explains range limits of 35 European tree species

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Species distribution models are key to evaluate how climate change threatens European forests and tree species distributions. However, current models struggle to integrate ecophysiological processes. Mechanistic models are complex and have high parameter requirements.
