Egg allergy (EA),along with cow's milk allergy (CMA) and atopic dermatitis (AD is one of the most frequent allergies in children. Tolerance to food allergens seems to be related to the early and regular intake and the cooking method. The objective of this study is to prove that the introduction of baked eggs at 4-6 months of age and its daily maintenance for 6 months prevents EA.

The adaptation of physician group practice (GP) in the ED has gained popularity in the country due to its potential advantage to patient management and physicians compared to independent consultancy (IC). This study aimed to determine the impacts of GP in a non-urgent ED setting in terms of operations, quality of care, and service satisfaction compared to IC.

These compounds react with H2(g) (5 bar) to afford the pincer iridium(III) dihydrido complexes [IrBrH2(κ3C,N,N'-tBuImCH2PyCH2NRR')] in good yields. The complexes [IrBr(cod)(κC-tBuImCH2PyCH2NRR')] efficiently catalyzed the β-alkylation of a series of secondary alcohols and the N-alkylation of a range of aniline derivatives with primary alcohols, with good selectivities for the β-alkylated alcohol and monoalkylated secondary amine products, respectively, at low catalyst loading, typically 0.
