Single-food elimination of cow's milk as a treatment for eosinophilic esophagitis in children aged 2-18 years: A review of the literature.

Cow's milk elimination (CME) is an established treatment, similar to other forms of diet therapy, for eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). However, there is limited research to support its efficacy as a primary treatment. This review evaluated studies published in the past 10 years that assessed the outcomes after CME on histologic remission, clinical findings, and quality of life (QoL) in children aged 2-18 years with EoE.

Low-Temperature As-Grown Crystalline β-GaO Films via Plasma-Enhanced Atomic Layer Deposition.

We report on the low-temperature growth of crystalline GaO films on Si, sapphire, and glass substrates using plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition (PEALD) featuring a hollow-cathode plasma source. Films were deposited by using triethylgallium (TEG) and Ar/O plasma as metal precursor and oxygen co-reactant, respectively. Growth experiments have been performed within 150-240 °C substrate temperature and 30-300 W radio-frequency (rf) plasma power ranges.

Beyond the Lab: Empirically Supported Treatments in the Real World.

Laboratory studies of empirically supported treatments (ESTs) for mental health problems achieve much higher rates of clinical improvement than has been observed following treatment in the community. This discrepancy is likely to due to limited reliance on ESTs by therapists outside of academia. Concerns about the generalizability of ESTs to patients in the community, who may have comorbid problems, likely limit rates of adoption.

Elucidating the role of nitrogen plasma composition in the low-temperature self-limiting growth of indium nitride thin films.

In this work, we have studied the role varying nitrogen plasma compositions play in the low-temperature plasma-assisted growth of indium nitride (InN) thin films. Films were deposited on Si (100) substrates using a plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition (PE-ALD) reactor featuring a capacitively-coupled hollow-cathode plasma source. Trimethylindium (TMI) and variants of nitrogen plasma (N-only, Ar/N, and Ar/N/H) were used as the metal precursor and nitrogen co-reactant, respectively.
