Article Synopsis
- In 2012, the IUCN initiated the development of the "Green Status of Species" to assess species recovery and the impact of conservation efforts.
- The Green Status framework includes a method to evaluate species recovery, featuring metrics like conservation legacy and recovery potential, tested on 181 diverse species.
- Findings showed that 59% of species were largely or critically depleted, highlighting that recovery status differs from extinction risk, and indicating the effectiveness of conservation efforts on the majority of species tested.
Background: Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) assessed "poorer" fitness correlates with poorer outcomes in blinded studies. Whether this correlation will persist when CPET is utilized to stratify care as part of a multi-modal enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) program is unclear. This study examined whether CPET variables were associated with postoperative morbidity in patients undergoing hepatectomy within an ERAS program.

While there are an estimated 322 graduate students in Nurse Practitioner and Masters/PhD programs in Canada today, the supply of potential new faculty falls short of the anticipated demand in the years ahead (Canadian Association of Schools of Nursing). This mixed method study explored how organizational culture and the perceived level of psychological and structural empowerment are associated with one's work environment among Canadian nursing faculty and to explore the state of mentorship in schools of nursing.
