Background: Nurse retention is a major concern in healthcare settings, especially among intensive care units (ICU), in which nurses are highly specialized. The objective was to describe the nurse courses after their entrance into the ICU, their motivation for leaving the ICU, and to identify the independent factors that influenced the nurse resignation from their units.
Methods: In 3 different centers, every ICU nurse working between 2013 and 2023 was telephonically contacted and was asked to describe their career and, when appropriate, the reasons that influenced their resignation from their units; they rated on a Likert scale of 14 factors that influenced their decision.
Age-related alterations in the immune system are starting to emerge as key contributors to impairments found in aged organs. A decline in regenerative capacity is a hallmark of tissue aging; however, the contribution of immune aging to regenerative failure is just starting to be explored. Here, we apply a strategy combining single-cell RNA sequencing with flow cytometry, histological analysis, and functional assays to perform a complete analysis of the immune environment of the aged regenerating skeletal muscle on a time course following injury with single-cell resolution.

The support provided by parents plays a relevant role in the life satisfaction (LS) of young people, as well as in their level of psychological distress (PD), which are among the important mediators of their well-being. Family structure has also been identified as a protective or risk factor. Hence, the present study provides a more complex analysis of young people's LS, considering the type of family cohabitation (based on parental presence), the personal conditions of the young people (PS), and their perception of the context (social support; SP).

Near-infrared autofluorescence of the parathyroid is increasingly used to prevent hypocalcemia after total thyroidectomy. However, its utility in decreasing operating time and aiding parathyroid identification during bilateral 4-gland exploration remains debated.
