Article Synopsis
- The study investigates barriers and facilitators affecting cancer survivors' return to work (RTW) and job retention in Spain, collecting perspectives from patients, healthcare professionals, and company representatives.
- Key barriers identified include inadequate information about the impact of cancer on work, ignorance of side effects, and lack of support from medical and workplace structures, while facilitators involve workplace support, psycho-oncologists, and patient associations.
- The conclusions suggest a need for better integration of work considerations in cancer care from the treatment onset, emphasizing the importance of involvement from social security, health professionals, and employers in supporting cancer survivors during their RTW journey.
Objective: This descriptive study aimed to measure the excess all-cause mortality potential years of working life lost (PYWLL) in the working-age population of six Ibero-American countries in 2020 and 2021.
Methods: This study was based on all-cause deaths for the age group 15-69 years for men and women in six countries: Colombia, Costa Rica, México, Peru, Portugal and Spain. The expected PYWLL was the average value determined from the previous 5 years (2015-2019).
West Nile virus (WNV) and Usutu virus (USUV) are closely related flaviviruses with differing capacities to cause neurological disease in humans. WNV is thought to use a transneural route of neuroinvasion along motor neurons and causes severe motor deficits. The potential for use of transneural routes of neuroinvasion by USUV has not been investigated experimentally, and evidence from the few clinical case reports of USUV-associated neuroinvasive disease is lacking.

The ARRIVE guidelines outline documentation standards for laboratory animals in experiments, but genetic information is often incomplete. To remedy this, we propose the Laboratory Animal Genetic Reporting (LAG-R) framework.
