Objectives: to construct and assess bundle content for the prevention and management of complications in neutropenia in cancer patients.
Methods: a methodological study developed in four stages: scoping review; bundle construction; material assessment by experts (developed according to Pasquali's psychometry); pilot test in a High Complexity Assistance Unit in Oncology. For content assessment, the Delphi technique was applied in two rounds and those items with Content Validation Coefficient (CVC)> 0.78 and agreement> 80.0% were considered valid. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics.
Results: all bundle requirements reached agreement between judges above 80.0%, in addition to statistically significant levels of assessment. At the end of the Delphi technique, bundle was significantly valid with CVC = 0.92 and CVC = 0.93, respectively.
Conclusions: bundle content proved to be valid and highly credible.

Background: Patients with gastrointestinal tract cancer reported suboptimal adherence to oral anticancer agents (OAAs), reducing their therapeutic benefit and increasing mortality risk. A scoping review can comprehensively map available evidence on adherence to OAAs and inform appropriate support to improve treatment outcomes.
Objective: The aim of this study was to comprehensively map studies on adherence to OAAs among adults with gastrointestinal tract cancer, including the adherence rate, nonadherence reasons, influential factors, management strategies, and theories that guide these studies.

Fanconi anemia (FA) is a rare genetic disorder that affects multiple systems in the body and is the most prevalent congenital syndrome, leading to bone marrow failure. Twenty-two genes have been identified as contributors to the disease. Significant advancements have been made in the past 2 decades in understanding the genetic and pathophysiological processes involved.

Brugada syndrome (BrS) is a genetic condition that increases the risk of life-threatening arrhythmias, which can result in sudden cardiac death (SCD). Implantable loop recorders (ILRs) have become a key tool in managing patients with unexplained syncope, and guidelines advise their use in individuals with recurrent, unexplained syncope or palpitations. However, the role of ILRs in inherited arrhythmic conditions like BrS remains a topic of debate.

The effectiveness of poultry vaccination in preventing the transmission of highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses (AIVs) has been debated, and its impact on wild birds remains uncertain. Here, we reconstruct the movements of H5 subtype AIV lineages among vaccinated poultry, unvaccinated poultry, and wild birds, worldwide, from 1996 to 2023. We find that there is a time lag in viral transmission among different host populations and that movements from wild birds to unvaccinated poultry were more frequent than those from wild birds to vaccinated poultry.

Objective: To describe two severe cases of congenital toxoplasmosis in infants born to chronically infected mothers who did not receive education or information on the prevention of gestational toxoplasmosis during prenatal care.
Case Description: The mothers had a previous serological diagnosis of toxoplasmosis conducted during prenatal care, with non-reactive (<10 IU/mL) IgM and reactive IgG (>10 IU/mL), and were considered "immune" to the infection. Both infants were born with sequelae of the congenital infection, including neurological and ocular alterations.
