Immunophenotypical characterization of immune checkpoint receptor expression in cynomolgus monkeys and human healthy volunteers in resting and in T-cell stimulatory conditions .

Immunotherapeutics targeting immune checkpoint receptors or their ligands (i.e., immune checkpoint inhibitors), have been groundbreaking in the field of oncology, radically changing the approach to treatment and improving the clinical outcomes of an ever-expanding list of solid tumors and hematological malignancies.

Implementing Guidelines for hypothermia prevention with Local adaptation to keep periOperative patients Warm (GLOW): protocol of a stepped-wedge cluster randomised hybrid type II effectiveness-implementation study.

Introduction: Perioperative hypothermia is a common and preventable complication of surgery. Systems level change that enables perioperative teams to integrate hypothermia prevention into practice in ways that are contextually appropriate is needed. The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the effectiveness and implementation of perioperative hypothermia prevention guidance with local adaptation on clinical, implementation and economic outcomes.
