In this holdover proceeding against an adult care facility resident, the court granted the tenant's guardian ad litem's post-judgment motion. The motion sought to stay execution of the warrant of eviction. The court stayed the warrant, conditioning its future execution on the landlord proving compliance with Department of Health regulations 18 NYCRR 487.4(m) and 18 NYCRR 487.5(f)(19). These regulations mandate that the landlord make persistent efforts to assist the tenant in securing appropriate alternative placement at a higher level of care, including filing five applications with other facilities.

The Coalition For Fairness In Soho And Noho, Inc. V. City Of New York

All Decisions

The Court of Appeals reversed the Appellate Division, upholding the City's 2021 rezoning plan for SoHo/NoHo artist lofts. The plan imposed a one-time fee on landlords for converting Joint Living-Work Quarters for Artists (JLWQA) units to unrestricted residential use. The court held that this fee does not constitute a compensable taking under the Fifth Amendment's Takings Clause. It reasoned that landlords lack a compensable property interest in converting their units to a new, more valuable use, as the fee does not burden their existing property rights or coerce them into relinquishing an interest that the government would otherwise have to …

Advanced Practice Registered Nurse Burnout In Magnet Hospitals: Opportunities For Organizational Intervention, Lori Kennedy, Heather Brom, Karen B. Lasater, Nancy M. Albert, Barbara Holmes Gobel, Christi Delemos, Lisa M. Williams, Linda H. Williams, Linda H. Aiken

Individual Articles

OBJECTIVE: To determine modifiable organizational factors associated with advanced practice RN (APRN) burnout in Magnet®-designated hospitals to guide organizational interventions to improve APRN well-being and retention.

METHODS: Cross-sectional study of work environments of 50 US Magnet hospitals and the associated well-being of 21 855 of their clinicians (APRNs, physician assistants, physicians [MDs], RNs).

RESULTS: Overall, 37%of APRNs experienced high burnout compared with 34% of MDs (P < 0.05) and 49% of RNs (P < 0.001); additionally, 32%of APRNs intended to leave their jobs. APRN burnout was significantly lower in organizations that minimized chaotic working conditions, provided APRNs more control over their workloads, involved APRNs in shared governance, improved clinician and management relations, and improved interprofessional teamwork.

CONCLUSIONS:Well-being and retention of APRNs in Magnet hospitals require their greater engagement in organization processes and systems that improve work environments.

A Chemogenetic Approach For Temporal And Cell-Specific Activation Of Endogenous Gpcrs In Vivo, Gwendolyn Shingles, Qianqian Pang, Jian Weng, Ryan Singer, Waleed Babar, Jiaqi Shen, Luis Vazquez-Rivera, Yao Chen, Peng Li, Wenjing Wang

2020-Current year OA Pubs

Cell-specific regulation of endogenous G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) is crucial for understanding their roles in physiological processes. We present chemogenetic tools using shield-1-dependent irreversible protein switches to regulate peptide agonist activity. To demonstrate this platform, we engineered chemogenetically regulated pituitary adenylate cyclase activating polypeptide (cPACAP), which exhibited >15-fold chemical-dependent regulation of endogenous receptor activity. In vivo application of cPACAP allowed neuronal activation via the endogenous receptor for PACAP, engaging neural circuits that control respiratory and feeding behaviors. By integrating cPACAP with transgenic mice, we selectively activated endogenous PACAP receptor signaling in hypocretin-expressing neurons of the lateral hypothalamic area (LHA), revealing …

Matched Unrelated Vs Haploidentical Donor Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation Using Posttransplant Cyclophosphamide, Dipenkumar Modi, Ramzi Abboud, Et Al.

2020-Current year OA Pubs

Posttransplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy)-based graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis is now standard for matched unrelated donor (MUD) hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). Previous studies comparing MUD and haploidentical donor HCT using PTCy were limited in size and follow-up. We therefore performed a registry-based analysis examining the impact of donor type on HCT with PTCy. Adult patients (n = 5873) receiving MUD (n = 1973) or haploidentical (n = 3900) HCT with PTCy for acute leukemia (74.2%) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS; 25.8%) reported to the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research between 2017 and 2021 were included. Primary end points were 3-year …

Induction Of Moderate Dna Damage Enhances Megakaryopoiesis And Platelet Production, Virginia Camacho, Luis Francisco Zirnberger Batista, Et Al.

2020-Current year OA Pubs

Megakaryocytes (MKs) are large, hematopoietic cells with a polyploid, multilobulated nucleus. Although DNA replication in MKs (endomitosis) is well studied, limited investigations have examined the impact of DNA instability on megakaryopoiesis. Poly-adenosine diphosphate (ADP) ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitors are chemotherapeutics that result in accumulation of DNA damage and are commonly associated with thrombocytopenia, presumably mediated through platelet progenitors, MKs. To explore PARP inhibitor-induced thrombocytopenia, we treated mice with the PARP inhibitor niraparib. Although high-dose niraparib treatment led to thrombocytopenia, consistent with clinical observations, lower-dose treatment led to a significant increase in bone marrow MKs, MK progenitors (MkPs), and circulating platelets. …

Rangelands are crucial to human well-being, but their ability to provide ecosystem services is threatened. We (1) quantified key ecosystem services provided by rangelands, (2) assessed short- and long-term impacts of fertilization (nutrient addition) and the exclusion of large grazing herbivores with fences (herbivore exclusion) on services, and (3) identified synergies and trade-offs among services. We measured indicators of ecosystem services and plant diversity at 79 sites across six continents in the global Nutrient Network. Short-term herbivore exclusion increased forage quantity and soil fertility, but longer-term herbivore exclusion decreased both along with plant richness and pollination. Nutrient addition improved forage …
