Background: Acute hemorrhagic leukoencephalitis (AHLE) or Weston-Hurst syndrome is a rare and severe variant of acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM). It causes fulminant hemorrhagic demyelination of the central nervous system, and has high mortality and morbidity. Due to the increase in cases and to its high rate of mortality, we decided to make a series of cases and a review of the disease.

The objective of this study is to comprehensively describe the nosological and pathogenic implications of this neurodegenerative disorder, given the unclear diagnosis of MMN and the significant challenges it poses.
Clinical Cases: We present three clinical cases with a chronic clinical presentation, in which neuroconduction studies were performed, revealing the presence of anti-IgM GM1 antibodies, consistent with the diagnosis of motor multifocal neuropathy.
Background: A family of 4-benzo[][1,3]oxazines were obtained from a group of -(2-alkynyl)aryl benzamides precursors via gold(I) catalysed chemoselective 6--dig C-O cyclization.
Method: The precursors and oxazines obtained were studied in breast cancer cell lines MCF-7, CAMA-1, HCC1954 and SKBR-3 with differential biological activity showing various degrees of inhibition with a notable effect for those that had an aryl substituted at C-2 of the molecules. 4-benzo[][1,3]oxazines showed an IC rating from 0.
Remote sensing data and numerical simulation are important tools to rebuild any oil spill accident letting to identify its source and trajectory. Through these tools was identified an oil spill that affected Oaxacan coast in October 2022. The SAR images were processed with a standard method included in SNAP software, and the numerical simulation was made using Lagrangian transport model included in GNOME software.

The mechanisms implicated are not fully understood and may be related to sex differences in placental adaptation. To evaluate this hypothesis, we investigated placental oxidative balance, vascularization, glucocorticoid barrier, and fetal growth in rats exposed to 50% global nutrient restriction from gestation day 11 (MUN, = 8) and controls ( = 8).
