Aim: Oxidative stress, caused by postprandial activities, is a major global health issue causing chronic diseases like diabetes mellitus, cancer, and asthma. Therefore, it was envisaged to design and synthesize a series of substituted 4-hydroxypyridine-2(1 h)-ones in order to develop new molecules that can reduce oxidative stress and modulate α-amylase activity also.
Materials & Methods: An environmentally benign, solvent and catalyst free, natural product inspired synthesis of 4-hydroxypyridin-2(1 h)-one derivatives has been developed.
Opalski syndrome is a rare variant of Wallenberg syndrome characterized by ipsilateral hemiparesis. We present a case involving a 50-year-old male who exhibited symptoms of right-sided upper and lower limb weakness, dizziness, and ataxia. T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) identified an infarction in the right lateral medulla.

Additionally, their variability and trace availability have presented hurdles in establishing future research utilities and their field applications. Exploring the historical context of allelopathic research is essential for obtaining a more profound understanding of the progression in this research domain and to identify the research gaps and potential future prospectives.

Over a period of time, substantial work has been done toward the development of effective and environmentally benign nematicidal compounds. However, due to the inefficiencies of previously reported synthetics in achieving the target of safe, selective, and effective treatment, it is necessary to develop new efficacious and safer nematicidal agents considering human health and environment on top priority.
