Article Abstract
This observational and descriptive study attempted, within the scope of the ModulEn Research Project, to determine associations between lifestyle-related variables and frailty involving 160 community-dwelling older adults aged between 65 and 80 years living in the Central Region of Portugal. Forty-three percent of the study participants were pre-frail and 18% were frail. More than 50% of the frail people had slight cognitive decline, and the frailty condition was more frequently observed in women. As the literature highlights, there is potential for greater reversibility in the pre-frailty condition. To contribute to this reversibility, it is necessary to resort to interventions that promote physical activity and cognitive stimulation, apply adequate eating habits, and/or encourage the adoption of an active and socially integrated lifestyle. A healthy lifestyle implies good sleep and eating habits, and correct metabolic control that allows for effective surveillance of dyslipidemia, diabetes, and blood pressure.

Background: Youth mental health issues have been recognized as a pressing crisis in the United States in recent years. Effective, evidence-based mental health research and interventions require access to integrated datasets that consolidate diverse and fragmented data sources. However, researchers face challenges due to the lack of centralized, publicly available datasets, limiting the potential for comprehensive analysis and data-driven decision-making.

Background: The rapid advancement of next-generation sequencing has significantly expanded the landscape of precision medicine. However, health care professionals face increasing challenges in keeping pace with the growing body of oncological knowledge and integrating it effectively into clinical workflows. Precision oncology decision support (PODS) tools aim to assist clinicians in navigating this complexity, yet their current functionalities only partially address clinical needs.

Objective: To identify pregnant women with urinary tract infections who are being monitored at a primary health care unit and their knowledge about antibiotics, as well as facilitating and challenging factors perceived by nurses that influence care, with a focus on antimicrobial resistance.
Method: Exploratory, descriptive study with a quantitative approach, involving pregnant women with urinary tract infections undergoing antibiotic treatment at a municipal health unit in São Paulo and nurses working at the same location. Data were obtained from computerized systems, medical records, and interviews, and were synthesized and analyzed using Microsoft Excel and Stata software.

The accumulated knowledge on the biology of the HIV-1 virus has led to the emergence of technologies that exploit the architecture of retroviruses and their integration or vectorization properties. This field of study constitutes retroviral vectorology, democratized in laboratories by the use of lentiviral vectors. By hijacking retroviral assembly, other systems are emerging and are increasingly mentioned in recent literature.

Background: Postoperative swelling is a common complication after total knee arthroplasty (TKA), associated with pain, limited mobility, and delayed recovery. This study aimed to systematically review the literature on interventions that reduce postoperative swelling, categorized into preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative phases.
Methods: A Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses-compliant search of PubMed, Medline, Embase, and Cochrane databases was performed for clinical studies evaluating interventions to reduce swelling after primary TKA.
