Article Synopsis
- Subclinical rejection (SCR) is when a kidney transplant shows signs of rejection but the kidney is still working well, and people are debating how it affects the transplant over the long term.
- The study will search for research from 1995 to 2023 about SCR in adult kidney transplant patients, looking for important results like kidney loss and future rejection.
- No new data will be collected for this study, and the findings will be shared in scientific papers and at conferences.
Objectives: To summarize the effectiveness of implementation strategies for ICU execution of recommendations from the 2013 Pain, Agitation/Sedation, Delirium (PAD) or 2018 PAD, Immobility, Sleep Disruption (PADIS) guidelines.
Data Sources: PubMed, CINAHL, Scopus, and Web of Science were searched from January 2012 to August 2023. The protocol was registered with PROSPERO (CRD42020175268).
Objective: The Core Clinical Journals (CCJ) list, produced by the U.S. National Library of Medicine (NLM), has been used by clinicians and librarians for half a century for two main purposes: narrowing a literature search to clinically useful journals and identifying high priority titles for library collections.

Objective: To determine the core serious illness communication skills clinicians should acquire to care for incapacitated, hospitalized patients with acute, life-threatening illness, including patients with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias.
Methods: From January 2019 to July 2020, we conducted a modified Delphi study with a panel of 79 experts in the field of serious illness communication.
