Objective: to present the theoretical model that represents the experience of care in transitional homes of support to families of children in a period of post-transplantation of hematopoietic stem cells.

Method: grounded theory, performed with 18 participants from three different samples. For analysis, we used the QSR Nvivo10 software.

Results: we elaborated four categories: living in the transitional support home; experiencing care of children in post-transplantation of hematopoietic stem cells; taking care of the family caregiver; and returning to a new life at home, which interrelate according to the theoretical code of the interactive family.

Conclusion: this research contributes to understanding the experience of care in transitional support homes of families with children in post-transplantation of hematopoietic stem cells and subsidizes nursing and health actions provided to this population; it also contributes to the development of a hospital discharge guidance and care directed to this clientele.

Sci Rep

December 2024

Department of Critical Care Medicine, Heping Hospital Affiliated to Changzhi Medical College, 110 South Yan'an Road, Luzhou District, Changzhi City, 046012, China.

Mechanical ventilation contributes to diaphragm atrophy and muscle weakness, which is referred to as ventilator-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction (VIDD). The pathogenesis of VIDD has not been fully understood until recently. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of 24 h of mechanical ventilation on fibro-adipogenic progenitor (FAP) proliferation, endothelial-mesenchymal transition (EndMT), and immune cell infiltration driving diaphragm fibrosis in a rabbit model.

Prior studies suggest that between half and three-quarters exercise this option at some point in their career, and a third do so within the first decade. However, more research is needed to understand the factors associated with PAs changing vs.
