Blunt innominate artery trauma requiring repair and carotid ligation.

Traumatic dissection of the innominate artery is a rare clinical entity. Management of a patient with motorsensory compromise and dissection extending to the subclavian and right common carotid arteries is quite rare and can be quite involved. Here we present such a case and discuss the unique peri-operative decision-making in the context of what is reported in the literature.

Synthesis and biological activities of 4-N-(anilinyl-n-[oxazolyl])-7-chloroquinolines (n=3' or 4') against Plasmodium falciparum in in vitro models.

The synthesis (Pd-mediated coupling strategy) and characterization (NMR, IR, elemental analysis, etc.) of a short series of quinoline-oxazole hybrid compounds has been carried out. These materials are found to be moderately active against Plasmodium falciparum in vitro, with activities in the sub-micromolar range, and to display acceptable cytotoxicity to mononuclear leukocytes.
