Purpose: Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is a common treatment for people diagnosed with hematological cancers. However, it can cause side effects that may affect work participation. This scoping review aims to provide an overview of the factors that influence the work participation of hematological cancer survivors who have undergone HCT.
Methods: We conducted a scoping review following the Joanna Briggs Institute guidelines and developed our search strategy in collaboration with a scientific librarian and searched nine databases (CINAHL, MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane, PubMed, PsycINFO, Web of Science, Scopus, ProQuest Dissertations, & Theses Global) for primary studies in French or English until February 2024. Two reviewers extracted the data and analyzed it thematically. We synthesized and presented the findings using a narrative description approach.
Results: We identified 940 publications, of which 36 met the eligibility criteria. Our findings underscore the significance of considering individuals over 50, those undergoing allogeneic HCT, women, and those with lower incomes. We noted disparities in evaluating or describing work participation.
Conclusion: It is crucial for researchers and healthcare professionals in hematological care to be aware of the intersecting factors that influence work participation. There are still significant gaps in how workplace dynamics, legislation, and healthcare systems affect the return to work process.

Background: Cervical cancer disparities persist among minoritized women due to infrequent screening and poor follow-up. Structural and psychosocial barriers to following up with colposcopy are problematic for minoritized women. Evidence-based interventions using patient navigation and tailored telephone counseling, including the Tailored Communication for Cervical Cancer Risk (TC3), have modestly improved colposcopy attendance.

Importance: Mindfulness meditation may improve well-being among employees; however, effects of digital meditation programs are poorly understood.
Objective: To evaluate the effects of digital meditation vs a waiting list condition on general and work-specific stress and whether greater engagement in the intervention moderates these effects.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This randomized clinical trial included a volunteer sample of adults (aged ≥18 years) employed at a large academic medical center who reported mild to moderate stress, had regular access to a web-connected device, and were fluent in English.

This study aimed to standardize qPCR techniques using these molecular markers kDNA and 18S rDNA across three sample types: peripheral blood, guanidine-treated blood, and tissue. The secondary objective is to evaluate the performance of 18S rDNA target in samples from 46 patients with confirmed tegumentary leishmaniasis. After obtaining the standard curve from reference strains with Leishmania, qPCR curves were standardizations and the Cts results of the patient samples were described using abstract measures.

Background And Objective: Telmisartan exhibits significant pharmacokinetic (PK) variability, but it remains unclear whether its PK profile is altered in hypertensive patients. This study aimed to characterize telmisartan PKs by conducting a meta-analysis and developing a pooled population PK model based on data from healthy subjects and hypertensive patients.
Methods: Relevant literature was identified by a systematic approach.

The current paper aimed to estimate the network structure of general psychopathology (internalizing and externalizing symptoms/disorders) among 239 gifted children in Jordan. This cross-sectional study with a convenience sampling method was conducted between September 2023 and October 2024 among gifted children aged 7-12. The Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) was employed to assess six symptom clusters: conduct problems, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and oppositional defiant problems as externalizing symptoms, and affective problems, anxiety issues, and somatic complaints as internalizing symptoms.
