New palladium complexes with N-heterocyclic carbene and morpholine ligands: Synthesis, characterization, crystal structure, molecular docking, and biological activities.

This work includes the synthesis of a new series of palladium-based complexes containing both morpholine and N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands. The new complexes were characterized using NMR ( H and C), FTIR spectroscopic, and elemental analysis techniques. The crystal structure of complex 1b was obtained by utilizing the single-crystal X-ray diffraction method.

New PEPPSI-Pd-NHC complexes bearing 4-hydroxyphenylethyl group: Synthesis, characterization, molecular docking, and bioactivity properties.

Five 4-hydroxyphenylethyl substituted pyridine enhanced, precatalyst, preparation, stabilization, and initiation-Pd-N-heterocyclic carbene (PEPPSI-Pd-NHC) complexes are synthesized in a straightforward way. All PEPPSI-Pd-NHC complexes were prepared by mixing 4-hydroxyphenylethyl substituted NHC precursors, palladium chloride, potassium carbonate, and potassium bromide in pyridine. All complexes were screened for human carbonic anhydrase I (hCA I) and hCA II, acetylcholinesterase (AChE), butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), and α-glucosidase (α-Glu) inhibitory activities.

An assessment of antioxidant status in patients with carbon monoxide poisoning.

Background: Carbon monoxide poisoning (COP) is an important cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. This study was to investigate the levels of serum paraoxonase (PON), arylesterase (ARYL), ceruloplasmin (Cp), and sulfhydryl (-SH) in the treatment of COP, and to further understand the pathophysiology of COP.

Methods: This prospective study comprised 107 individuals with COP (group 1) and 50 healthy volunteers (group 2).

Efficiency of Ankaferd Blood Stopper used in bleeding control on intraabdominal adhesions formed postoperatively.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate the hispathological, biochemical, and clinical efficiency of Ankaferd Blood Stopper (ABS) in preventing postoperative intraabdominal adhesions.

Method: A total of 40 Wistar albino species female rats were randomly separated into 4 groups. For the control group, 1 mL normal saline was administered; and for the second, third, and fourth groups 0.

Pregnancy-related strokes in southeast Turkey.

Objective: To evaluate the presentation, timing, etiology, risk factors, mortality, and outcome of ischemic stroke (IS), intracerebral hemorrhagic stroke (ICH/HS), and cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) occurring during pregnancy and the postpartum period in southeast Turkey.

Methods: The study was carried out from September 2003 to September 2005 at the emergency department of Dicle University Hospital in the southeast part of Turkey. Thirty-eight stroke patients, 18-42 years of age with a diagnosis of stroke during pregnancy or within 6 weeks of delivery were included.
