Our data suggest that the CWIP is constitutively required for A. fumigatus to cope with the temperature increase found in the mammalian lung environment, emphasising the importance of this pathway in supporting thermotolerance and cell wall integrity.

To evaluate the impact of an educational design to develop nursing students' competence to work systematically with quality improvement in clinical practice.

Competence in how to improve the quality and safety of healthcare services based on new knowledge is crucial for healthcare quality. Nursing education should give students opportunities to engage in quality improvement projects to gain this competence.

This project qualitatively evaluated the impact of the course on students' ability to plan and implement a quality improvement project in their clinical placement.

Data from retrospective focus group interviews and written project reports were analysed by means of qualitative content analysis. Fifty-five students participated in the study. COREQ reporting guidelines were used.

Three themes were derived from the analysis (a) the importance of anchoring the quality improvement project in the clinic; (b) experiencing the steps of a quality improvement project; and (c) challenging student role.

Course design that facilitates student-run small-scale quality improvement projects under supervision can enhance nurse students' competence in quality improvement work, as well as raise the students' awareness of the responsibility they will undertake as future nurses.

Nursing students work on quality improvement project in clinical placement may enhance their awareness and competence in developing quality and safety of healthcare services as future nurses.

Activating neural precursor cells (NPCs) in adult rodents, in combination with rehabilitation, can accelerate functional recovery following stroke. Here, we describe a novel method of constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) in a rodent model of neonatal stroke that leads to improved functional outcomes, and we asked whether the recovery was correlated with expansion of NPCs. A hypoxia/ischemia (H/I) injury was induced on postnatal day 8 (PND8) via unilateral carotid artery ligation followed by systemic hypoxia. One week and two weeks post-H/I, CIMT was administered in the form of 3 botulinum toxin (Botox) injections, which induced temporary paralysis in the unaffected limb. Functional recovery was assessed using the foot fault task. NPC proliferation was assessed using the neurosphere assay and EdU immunohistochemistry. We found that neonatal H/I injury alone expands the NPC pool by >2.5-fold relative to controls. Smad inhibitor We determined that using Botox injections as a method to provide CIMT results in significant functional motor recovery after H/I. However, CIMT does not lead to enhanced NPC activation or migration into the injured parenchyma in vivo. At the time of functional recovery, increased numbers of proliferating inflammatory cells were found within the injured motor cortex. Together, these findings suggest that NPC activation following CIMT does not account for the observed functional improvement and suggests that CIMT-mediated modification of the CNS inflammatory response may play a role in the motor recovery.

The purpose of this study was to explore Canadian nurses' perspectives on climate change, health, nursing practice and the relationships between these concepts.

Climate change negatively impacts human health. With a mandate to promote health, nurses have a professional and ethical responsibility to address climate change. Little is known about Canadian nurses' perspectives on climate change or how they perceive of their professional responsibility towards addressing it.

A focused ethnography was conducted in three medicine units and the emergency room at a Canadian hospital. Nurses (n=22) participated in semi-structured interviews, and observations were collected. Data were analysed via thematic analysis. Reporting is in accordance with the COREQ guideline.

Three themes were identified muddled terminology, climate change and health, and nursing's relationship to climate change.

Participants had varying levels of knowledge about climate change and its relationship to health or practice. Climate change was a personal concern, and nursing's role in addressing it was not understood.

This study highlighted that practising nurses did not readily recognise their role in addressing climate change. More work is needed to clarify this role and bring it into the consciousness of every-day nursing practice. Furthermore, more work is needed to examine how healthcare organisations can better support environmentally responsible nursing practice.

To describe perceptions of managers regarding prerequisites for professional competence development of newly graduated nurses following a 1-year residency programme.

In general, managers are unsatisfied with the professional competence of newly graduated nurses. Therefore, they have been involved in residency programmes to support the nurses' transition from being nursing students to professional nurses. However, perceptions of managers regarding the professional competence development of nurses have been sparingly studied.

Qualitative, descriptive study with a data-driven inductive approach with content analysis to obtain an understanding of the perceptions of nine managers through interviews. EQUATOR checklist COREQ is used (see File S1).

Three themes emerged (a) the nurses' relationships with their teams and patients, (b) expectations regarding the development of practical skills and leadership skills and (c) prerequisites for continuing learning by supportive structures and a mutual responsibility between the manager and the nurse.
