Cobalt Bromide-Catalyzed Negishi-Type Cross-Coupling of Amides.

Herein, we describe a novel Negishi-type cross-coupling of amides employing only cobalt bromide salt as the catalyst. This original reaction is highly tolerant to various glutarimide amides as well as organozinc coupling partners. These conditions also allow the performance of the cross-coupling reaction in an eco-compatible solvent such as ethyl acetate on a large scale.

Repair of the femoral nerve by two motor branches of the obturator nerve: A case report.

Complete femoral nerve palsies are uncommon but devastating injuries when they are caused by large nerve defects. Direct repair is usually not possible and nerve grafting renders uncertain outcomes. Recent studies proposed different peripheral nerve transfers as treatment strategies for large femoral nerve defects.

Do Animals Perceive Human Developmental Disabilities? Guinea Pigs' Behaviour with Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders and Children with Typical Development. A Pilot Study.

Some cues used by humans and animals during human-animal interactions may have significant effects, modulating these interactions (e.g., gaze direction, heart rate).

Loop biceps tenotomy: an arthroscopic technique for long head of biceps tenotomy.

The long head of the biceps tendon is frequently involved in shoulder pathologies, often in relation to inflammatory or degenerative damage to the rotator cuff. Biceps tenodesis in the bicipital groove and tenotomy are the main treatment options. Tenotomy of the long head of the biceps tendon is a simpler and quicker procedure than tenodesis, and it does not require the use of implants.
