Aim: The Ohio Action Coalition was formed to address the key recommendations of the Institute of Medicine's Future of Nursing report.
Background: The Future of Nursing Campaign for Action is a national initiative to guide implementation of the recommendations in the Future of Nursing report.
Method: Through statewide meetings, leaders from nursing education and practice adopted a statewide competency model. Regional teams provided detailed regional gap analyses using the Ohio Nurse Competency Model and address the Institute of Medicine's foundational pillar that nurses should achieve higher levels of education.
Results: Communication among baccalaureate and community colleges and nursing practice has increased statewide as a result of this collaborative project. The teams are committed to exploring ways to standardize and develop adaptable seamless academic progression models for implementation across communities.
Conclusion: Ultimately, the goal is to positively impact the academic preparation of the Ohio nursing workforce.

This review investigates the intricate relationship between exercise, brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), neuroplasticity, and cognitive function, with a focus on implications for neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders. A systematic review was conducted by searching various databases for relevant studies that explored the connections between exercise, BDNF, neuroplasticity, and cognitive health. The analysis of eligible studies revealed that exercise increases BDNF levels in the brain, promoting neuroplasticity and enhancing cognitive functions.

Background: There is scarce literature evaluating long term psychological or Quality of Life (QoL) outcomes in family members of ICU survivors, who have not experienced invasive ventilation. The objective was to compare long-term psychological symptoms and QoL outcomes in family members of intubated versus non-intubated ICU survivors and to evaluate dyadic relationships between paired family members and survivors.
Methods: Prospective, multicentre cohort study among four medical-surgical ICUs in Australia.
