A PMLRARα transgene initiates murine acute promyelocytic leukemia

TL;DR: The transgenic mice described here provide an apparently accurate model for human APL that includes clear evidence of tumor progression and should be useful for exploring the molecular pathogenesis of APL and the mechanisms of the therapeutic response to retinoic acid.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of California’s Licensed Nurse-Patient Ratios on Unit-Level Nurse Staffing and Patient Outcomes

TL;DR: Assessment of the impacts of the mandated ratios on two common indicators of patient care quality, the incidence of patient falls and the prevalence of pressure ulcers, did not reveal significant changes despite research linking nurse staffing with these measures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Directional instability of microtubule transport in the presence of kinesin and dynein, two opposite polarity motor proteins

TL;DR: The results suggest that the underlying mechanical properties of motor proteins, at least in part, may be responsible for reversals in microtubule-based transport observed in cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

How Many Nurses per Patient? Measurements of Nurse Staffing in Health Services Research

TL;DR: Comparing alternative measures of nurse staffing and assessing the relative strengths and limitations of each measure found the greatest differences in staffing measurement arise when unit-level data are compared with hospital-level aggregated data reported in large administrative databases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mandated nurse staffing ratios in California: a comparison of staffing and nursing-sensitive outcomes pre- and postregulation.

TL;DR: Findings for nurse staffing affirmed the trends noted in 2005 and indicated that changes in nurse staffing were consistent with expected increases in the proportion of licensed staff per patient, but anticipated improvements in nursing-sensitive patient outcomes were not observed.
