Acknowledging: A classic grounded theory explaining how nurses' employ clinical judgement when complying with early warning system protocols.

Background: Recognition and response to clinical deterioration of hospitalised patients is a worldwide health priority area. In response to this concern, international bodies have implemented early warning systems to help clinicians keep people safe and prevent patient deterioration. Registered nurses hold a significant role in managing care provision and utilise early warning system tools to support their clinical judgement when making decisions about patient care.

Shape-Dependent Structural Order of Red Blood Cells.

In this work, we show how shape matters for the ordering of red blood cells (RBCs) at a water-air interface for both artificially rigidified and sphered cells as a model system for hereditary spherocytosis. We report enhanced long-range order for spherical RBCs over disk-shaped RBCs arising from the increased local ordering of spheres relative to disks. We show that rigidity has a greater effect on the radial distribution of spherical vs disk-shaped RBCs by slightly increasing the average distance between cells.

Parenthood and gene expression of oxytocin receptors and vasopressin receptors in sensory cortices of the male California mouse (Peromyscus californicus).

The onset of parental care is associated with shifts in parents' perception of sensory stimuli from infants, mediated by neural plasticity in sensory systems. In new mothers, changes in auditory and olfactory processing have been linked to plasticity at several points along both sensory pathways, including cortical changes that are modulated, at least in part, by oxytocin. In males of biparental species, vasopressin, in addition to oxytocin, is important for modulating parental behavior; however, little is known about sensory plasticity in new fathers.

Epigenome-wide analysis across the development span of pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia: backtracking to birth.

Background: Cancer is the leading cause of disease-related mortality in children. Causes of leukemia, the most common form, are largely unknown. Growing evidence points to an origin in-utero, when global redistribution of DNA methylation occurs driving tissue differentiation.
