  • - Dashboards in health systems help track and improve serious illness conversation (SIC) quality indicators, but the effectiveness and challenges of these dashboards are still not fully understood.
  • - Interviews with palliative care leaders revealed that while dashboards can enhance data transparency and support clinician practice changes, they rely heavily on structured documentation that clinicians don't always use effectively.
  • - Key challenges include ensuring the reliability of data, securing necessary resources for dashboard maintenance, and integrating patient-centered outcome measures, which may hinder the overall effectiveness of these tools in practice.

The mammalian Brg1/Brm-associated factor (BAF) complexes are major regulators of nucleosomal remodeling that are commonly mutated in several cancers, including germinal center (GC)-derived B cell lymphomas. However, the specific roles of different BAF complexes in GC B cell biology are not well understood. Here we show that the AT-rich interaction domain 1a (Arid1a) containing canonical BAF (cBAF) complex is required for maintenance of GCs and high-affinity antibody responses.
