Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty
Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.

Relative Error of Scaled Poisson Approximation via Stein's Method
We study the accuracy of a scaled Poisson approximation to the weighted sum of independent Poisson random variables, focusing on in particular the relative error of the tail distribution. We establish a moderate deviation bound on the approximation error

Can individual auditors' career advancements predict audit partner quality?
Abstract This mixed‐methods study investigates whether individual auditors' career advancements to more prestigious audit firms can predict their audit quality. Using hand‐collected data on more than 2,000 audit partners from professional networking website profiles, I identify audit partners with advancements from less to more prestigious audit firms ...

This study examines whether comparable financial information can mitigate differences between individual and institutional investors’ trading behaviour, particularly behaviour that is shaped by investor sentiment. The results indicate that the higher the comparability, the smaller the gap in trading behaviour driven by investor sentiment between ...

Economic Freedom and Audit Fees: Evidence From the USA
ABSTRACT We examine the association between US state‐level economic freedom and audit fees. We argue that economic freedom lowers clients' perceived business risk, thereby requiring reduced audit effort and exposing auditors to a lower probability of litigation risk, which enables auditors to charge lower audit fees to clients headquartered in states ...

Stein's method, Malliavin calculus, Dirichlet forms and the fourth moment theorem
The fourth moment theorem provides error bounds of the order $\sqrt{{\mathbb E}(F^4) - 3}$ in the central limit theorem for elements $F$ of Wiener chaos of any order such that ${\mathbb E}(F^2) = 1$.

The Therapeutic Potential of Farm Dust Extracts in a Mouse Model of Eosinophilic Inflammation
Farm dust extract (FDE) treatment reduces airway eosinophilia, mucus overproduction, and MHC‐II expression on DCs, limiting antigen presentation and Th2 inflammation. It increases PD‐L1 on DCs, promoting T cell deactivation. Additionally, FDE enhances Tregs and upregulates CTLA‐4, reinforcing suppression.

Optimal method in multiple regression with structural changes
In this paper, we consider an estimation problem of the regression coefficients in multiple regression models with several unknown change-points. Under some realistic assumptions, we propose a class of estimators which includes as a special cases ...

Infection control in the brain and the eye
Abstract The Central Nervous System (CNS), comprising the brain and the eye, is considered to have a ‘privileged’ mechanism for dealing with immunological challenge (immune privilege, IP). CNS IP has been revealed through experiments using foreign protein antigens and cell and tissue alloantigens (grafts), but evidence for a role for IP in modulating ...
