Evaluation of Change in Medication Regimen Complexity-ICU (MRC-ICU) Score Following Implementation of a Virtual Intensive Care Model in a Multisite, Rural Health-System.

Telehealth in the ICU (Tele-ICU) may improve patient outcomes and optimize utilization of high acuity intensive care unit (ICU) beds. However, the relationship between tele-ICU and medication regimen complexity-ICU (MRC-ICU) score is unexplored. To assess the effect of tele-ICU on MRC-ICU score and describe pharmacists' work.

Distinct roles for NF-κB in hematopoietic stem cells and the bone marrow milieu in promoting hematopoietic aging.

Hematopoietic aging is characterized by chronic inflammation associated with myeloid bias, hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) accumulation, and functional HSC impairment. Yet it remains unclear how inflammation promotes aging phenotypes. Nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) both responds to and directs inflammation, and we present an experimental model of elevated NF-κB activity ("inhibitor of κB deficient" [IκB]) to dissect its role in hematopoietic aging phenotypes.

Distinct causes of three phenotypic hallmarks of hematopoietic aging.

Hematopoietic aging is characterized by chronic inflammation associated with myeloid bias, HSC accumulation, and functional HSC impairment. Yet it remains unclear how inflammation promotes these aging phenotypes. NFkappaB both responds to and directs inflammation, and we present an experimental model of elevated NFkappaB activity (IkappaBminus) to dissect its role in hematopoietic aging phenotypes.
