Precision in stereochemistry: the integral role of catalytic asymmetric Biginelli reaction in crafting enantiomerically pure dihydropyrimidinones.

One well-known multicomponent reaction that is helpful in the synthesis of dihydropyrimidinones (DHPMs), important molecules in organic synthesis and medicinal chemistry, is the Biginelli reaction. Because of their wide range of biological activities, DHPMs are regarded as essential chemicals. A great deal of research has been done in the last few decades to find ways to produce enantiomerically pure DHPMs because of their notable and focused target-oriented biological activities.

Neonatal Transport Safety Metrics and Adverse Event Reporting: A Systematic Review.

Objective: Neonatal transports are an essential component of regionalized medical systems. Neonates who are unstable after birth require transport to a higher level of care by neonatal transport teams. Data on adverse events on neonatal transports are limited.

A hungry Histiocyte, altered immunity and myriad of problems: Diagnostic challenges for Pediatric HLH.

Introduction: Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is an immune deregulation disorder with varied clinical presentation which clinically overlaps with widespread tropical infections.

Methods: We conducted a retrospective chart review of children diagnosed with HLH at our center from February-2017 to October-2020.

Results: Out of the nine diagnosed patients, genetic predisposition was present in three children; two had identified infectious triggers.

Antifungal susceptibility of clinical and environmental Cryptococcus neoformans and Cryptococcus gattii isolates in Jabalpur, a city of Madhya Pradesh in Central India.

In this study, we present antifungal susceptibility data of clinical and environmental isolates of Central Indian Cryptococcus neoformans (Serotype A, n = 8 and n = 50 respectively) and Cryptococcus gattii (Serotype B, n = 01 and n = 04 respectively). Susceptibilities to fluconazole, itraconazole and ketoconazole were determined by using NCCLS broth micro-dilution methodology. The total number of resistant strains for fluconazole in case of C.
