Article Synopsis
  • The research focuses on a new method for ortho C-H borylation of aromatic phosphonates, utilizing simple starting materials and easily available catalysts.
  • This technique allows for the creation of -phosphonate arylboronic esters that have diverse functional groups and substitution patterns.
  • These newly formed products are versatile intermediates, enabling the synthesis of a wide array of highly substituted phosphoarenes, along with potential further modifications.

Background: Using patient-reported and objective assessment tools, we sought to quantify cognitive symptoms and objective cognitive dysfunction in patients irradiated for skull base cancer.

Methods: Participants were assessed using the Telephone Interview for Cognitive Status (TICS) and the MD Anderson Symptom Inventory-Head and Neck module (MDASI-HN), with subsequent analysis.

Results: Of the 122 participants analyzed, the majority (63%) had no frank detectable cognitive impairment by TICS, with frank impairment in 6%.
