The official pubication of the World Allergy Organization, the World Allergy Organization Journal (WAOjournal) publishes original mechanistic, translational, and clinical research on the topics of allergy, asthma, anaphylaxis, and clincial immunology, as well as reviews, guidelines, and position papers that contribute to the improvement of patient care. WAOjournal publishes research on the growth of allergy prevalence within the scope of single countries, country comparisons, and practical global issues and regulations, or threats to the allergy specialty. The Journal invites the submissions of all authors interested in publishing on current global problems in allergy, asthma, anaphylaxis, and immunology. Of particular interest are the immunological consequences of climate change and the subsequent systematic transformations in food habits and their consequences for the allergy/ immunology discipline.

  • Pubmed: the Bibliographic Database Kathi Canese and Sarah Weis Created: October 9, 2002; Updated: March 20, 2013
    13 PubMed: The Bibliographic Database Kathi Canese and Sarah Weis Created: October 9, 2002; Updated: March 20, 2013. Summary PubMed is a free resource developed and maintained by the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), a division of the U.S. National Library of Medicine (NLM), at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). PubMed comprises over 22 million citations and abstracts for biomedical literature indexed in NLM’s MEDLINE database, as well as from other life science journals and online books. PubMed citations and abstracts include the fields of biomedicine and health, and cover portions of the life sciences, behavioral sciences, chemical sciences, and bioengineering. PubMed also provides access to additional relevant websites and links to other NCBI resources, including its various molecular biology databases. PubMed uses NCBI's Entrez search and retrieval system. PubMed does not include the full text of the journal article; however, the abstract display of PubMed citations may provide links to the full text from other sources, such as directly from a publisher’s website or PubMed Central (PMC). Data Sources MEDLINE The primary component of PubMed is MEDLINE, NLM’s premier bibliographic database, which contains over 19 million references to journal articles in life sciences, with a concentration on biomedicine. The majority of journals selected for MEDLINE are based on the recommendation of the Literature Selection Technical Review Committee (LSTRC), an NIH-chartered advisory committee of external experts analogous to the committees that review NIH grant applications. Some additional journals and newsletters are selected based on NLM- initiated reviews in areas that are special priorities for NLM or other NIH components (e.g., history of medicine, health services research, AIDS, toxicology and environmental health, molecular biology, and complementary medicine).

  • Collaborative Development of Web Tools in R by Peter Kasprzak, Lachlan Mitchell, Olena Kravchuk and Andy Timmins
    CONTRIBUTED RESEARCH ARTICLE 20 Six Years of Shiny in Research - Collaborative Development of Web Tools in R by Peter Kasprzak, Lachlan Mitchell, Olena Kravchuk and Andy Timmins Abstract The use of Shiny in research publications is investigated over the six and a half years since the appearance of this popular web application framework for R, which has been utilised in many varied research areas. While it is demonstrated that the complexity of Shiny applications is limited by the background architecture, and real security concerns exist for novice app developers, the collaborative benefits are worth attention from the wider research community. Shiny simplifies the use of complex methodologies for people of different specialities, at the level of proficiency appropriate for the end user. This enables a diverse community of users to interact efficiently, and utilise cutting edge methodologies. The literature reviewed demonstrates that complex methodologies can be put into practice without insisting on investment in professional training, for a comprehensive understanding from all participants. It appears that Shiny opens up concurrent benefits in communication between those who analyse data and other disciplines, that would enrich much of the peer-reviewed research. Introduction Data is the backbone of research. With the rise of automated data gathering tools, data size and complexity of analysis have driven a growing gap between research disciplines and the required data analysis. Another issue is the fact that different approaches to the same data can compromise validity, as seen in an analysis on effect sizes in observational studies, which found that varied methodological work- flows could reverse conclusions regarding the studied intervention (Donoho, 2017).
