Quality improvement tools to manage deceased organ donation processes: a scoping review by Sonny Dhanani, Ken Lotherington, Lindsay Wilson, Vanessa Silva e Silva, Laura Hornby, Andrea Rochon, Marian Luctkar-Flude, Amina Silva, Samantha Arora, Luciana P. Giorno, Elayne Jackson, Marzieh Latifi, Stefany Petry

“…The tools identified included checklists, algorithms, flow charts, charts, pathways, decision tree maps and mobile apps. These tools were applied in the following phases of the organ donation process: (1) potential donor identification, (2) donor referral, (3) donor assessment and risk, (4) donor management, (5) withdrawal of life-sustaining measures, (6) death determination, (7) organ retrieval and (8) overall organ donation process.Conclusions We conducted a thorough investigation of the available quality improvement tools for deceased organ donation processes. …”

Phenotyping of a new yeast mapping population reveals differences in the activation of the TORC1 signalling pathway between wild and domesticated yeast strains by Guilherme Rocha, Melissa Gómez, Camila Baeza, Francisco Salinas, Claudio Martínez, Eduardo I. Kessi-Pérez

“…Abstract Domestication can be understood as a symbiotic relationship that benefits both domesticator and domesticated species, involving multiple genetic changes that configure the phenotype of the domesticated species. One of the most important domesticated species is the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, with both domesticated strains used for different fermentations processes for thousands of years and wild strains existing only in environments without human intervention; however, little is known about the phenotypic effects associated with its domestication. …”
