Traditional Post-Intensive Care Recovery Clinics (PIRCs) often exclude neurocritical care patients. In 2020, a multidisciplinary team started Post Neuro Intensive Care Virtual Clinic (PREVAIL) that uses telemedicine to provide consultative care for patients with a primary neurologic injury who are at risk for post-intensive care syndrome. During clinic, critical care pharmacists perform medication reconciliations and provide drug therapy recommendations.

- Mosquito-borne flaviviruses like dengue and Zika are spreading in areas with high HIV rates, but their effects on people with HIV are not well understood.
- Using a pigtail macaque model, researchers found that SIV-induced immunosuppression enhances Zika virus replication and persistence in the body, leading to increased inflammation.
- These findings suggest that individuals living with HIV may be at greater risk for chronic Zika infection, highlighting the need for targeted vaccine and treatment strategies for this vulnerable population.
Background: Drought adaptation is critical to many tree species persisting under climate change, however our knowledge of the genetic basis for trees to adapt to drought is limited. This knowledge gap impedes our fundamental understanding of drought response and application to forest production and conservation. To improve our understanding of the genomic determinants, architecture, and trait constraints, we assembled a reference genome and detected ~ 6.

Assessing acute and late toxicities and differentiating them from progressive disease (PD) impacts further therapeutic approach. We retrospectively assessed dogs treated with definitive-intent chemoradiotherapy (12 × 3.

The magnetic samples have been obtained the Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) process, using a mixture of polyamide-12 powder (PA12, DuraForm PA2200) and isotropic Sm-Fe-N melt-spun ribbons (Daido Electronics, Inc.) as feedstocks.
