COMPARISON OF ABDOMINAL EXERCISES AND NEUROMUSCULAR ELECTRICAL STIMULATION ON DIASTASIS RECTI ABDOMINIS MUSCLE IN POSTNATAL FEMALES WITH CAESAREAN SECTION.

The separation of the two rectus abdominis muscles along the linea alba is termed diastasis of recti abdominis muscles (DRAM). DRAM is a common health problem in people that are both pregnant and postpartum. With a 100% frequency at gestational week 35, it is extremely frequent during pregnancy.

Approach to the synthesis of indoline derivatives from diaryliodonium salts.

An effective method of constructing the indoline moiety via intramolecular nucleophilic ring closure of a diaryliodonium salt is described. Diacetoxyiodoarene compounds (1a-1e) were converted into intermediate Koser's reagent and coupled with arylstannanes (7-10) to form diaryliodonium salts (11a-14e). Indoline compounds with different N-protecting groups, 15, 16, 17, and 18, were synthesized in higher yields by treating salts (11a-14e) with Cs(2)CO(3) and TEMPO.
