Quantifying Cortical Maturational Aspects During Different Vigilance States in Preterm Infants by Advanced EEG Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Preterm birth is a significant risk factor for atypical neurodevelopment, yet early electrophysiological markers of brain maturation are still lacking. Non‐invasive electroencephalographic (EEG) monitoring of cortical maturation in these patients holds promise as a tool for neurodevelopmental prediction.

Robust Bernoulli Mixture Models for Credit Portfolio Risk

open access: yesMathematical Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper presents comparison results and establishes risk bounds for credit portfolios within classes of Bernoulli mixture models, assuming conditionally independent defaults that are stochastically increasing in a common risk factor. We provide simple and interpretable conditions on conditional default probabilities that imply a comparison ...

Diet and Care Mediate the Effects of Parenting and Nutrition Interventions on Childhood Infections

open access: yesMaternal &Child Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The effect of community‐based multi‐input interventions that promote health, nutrition, and development on childhood infections, and the pathways that explain these effects remain unclear.

Structural Change and the Labor Share: Insights From Baumol and Lewis

open access: yesMetroeconomica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper makes two contributions. First, it links a model of structural change and income distribution to a method of decomposing the aggregate labor share into sectoral contributions. Second, it formalizes the interaction between structural change and the labor share using Baumol (1967) and Lewis (1954). The premise is a shift of employment

Resurrected Ancestral Cannabis Enzymes Unveil the Origin and Functional Evolution of Cannabinoid Synthases

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cannabinoids, such as tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCA), cannabidiolic acid (CBDA) and cannabichromenic acid (CBCA), are bioactive and medicinally relevant compounds found in the cannabis plant (Cannabis sativa L.). These three compounds are synthesised from a single precursor, cannabigerolic acid (CBGA), through regioselective reactions ...
