Effectiveness of Three-dimensional Cardiac Computed Tomography Scan in Congenital Heart Surgery-An Impact on Diagnostic Performance and Surgical Management.

Background: Recent advances in gated cardiac contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) with anesthesia support, enhance the imaging performance in congenital heart disease (CHD). 3D reconstruction of the CECT image is a novel modality that could help manage pediatric cardiac patients.

Methods: A retrospective study of children diagnosed with CHD presenting for surgical intervention (n = 139) was carried out at our cardiac surgical center.

Magnetic and Magnetostrictive Properties of Sol-Gel-Synthesized Chromium-Substituted Cobalt Ferrite.

Chromium (Cr)-doped cobalt ferrite nanoparticles were synthesized using a sol-gel autocombustion method, with the chemical formula CoCrFeO. The value of x ranged from 0.00 to 0.

Design and synthesis of 4-aminophenol-1,3,4-oxadiazole derivative potentiates apoptosis by targeting MAP kinase in triple negative breast cancer cells.

Women below 40 years greatly suffer from triple negative breast cancers (TNBCs). Compared to other breast cancer cases, the poor prognosis and lower survival rate of TNBC patients make it an alarming task to save the human era from this dreadful disease. Therefore, identifying potential novel leads is urgently required to combat the TNBC.

Design, synthesis and docking studies of novel 4-aminophenol-1,2,4-oxadiazole hybrids as apoptosis inducers against triple negative breast cancer cells targeting MAP kinase.

In our study, a series of novel 4-aminophenol benzamide-1,2,4-oxadiazole hybrid analogues have been designed and synthesized by condensing 4-hydroxyphenyl arylamides and 5-chloromethyl-3-aryl-1,2,4-oxadiazoles The structure of the synthesised compounds was verified by various spectroscopic techniques (H NMR, C NMR, IR and LC-MS). All the prepared compounds were subjected to and antiproliferative study against TNBC cell lines MDA-MB-468 and MDA-MB-231. The investigations revealed that compound significantly promoted apoptosis against MDA-MB-468 and MDA-MB-231 cells with IC values of 22.
