The impact of prior unsuccessful debridement, antibiotics, and implant retention (DAIR) procedures on subsequent revisions is uncertain, with conflicting evidence. Despite 85% consensus against the second DAIR procedure following the 2018 International Consensus Meeting, a 2020 study reported high success rates for the aforementioned second DAIR procedure. We conducted a multicenter observational study reviewing data from patients with failed DAIR procedures between 2005 and 2021.

In the present work, we report a family of Ni(14) and unprecedented Ni(13) clusters linked by end-on azido and oximato bridges. Ferrimagnetic response gives S = 6 and 9 ground states, resulting in the largest nuclearities and spins in nickel oximato chemistry.

Six new copper(II) complexes of formula [Cu(mu-cbdca)(H2O)]n (1) (cbdca = cyclobutanedicarboxylate), [Cu2(mu-cbdca)2(mu-bipy)2]n (2) (bipy = 4,4'-bipyridine), [Cu(mu-cbdca)(mu-bpe)]n (3) (bpe = 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethane), [Cu(mu-cbdca)(bpy)]2 (4) (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine), [Cu(terpy)(ClO4)]2(mu-cbdca).H2O (5) (terpy = 2,2':6',2' '-terpyridine), and [Cu(cbdca)(phen) (H2O)].2H2O (6) (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline) were obtained and structurally characterized by X-ray crystallography.

Reaction of di-2-pyridyl ketone (dpk) with nickel acetate and azide in the presence of potassium tert-butylate as a catalytic base generates the title compound, which contains the largest [Ni(mu(1,1)-N3)]6 circles in the discrete ferromagnetically-coupled M(II)-azide cluster family, and shows an unprecedented in situ cyanomethylation of ketone.

Two polymeric malonato-bridged manganese(II) complexes of formula [Mn(mal)(H(2)O)(2)](n)() (1) and [Mn(2)(mal)(2)(4,4'-bipy)(H(2)O)(2)](n)() (2) have been synthesized and characterized (mal = malonate dianion; 4,4'-bipy = 4,4'-bipyridine). The crystal structure of complex 1 was already known. Complex 2 crystallizes in monoclinic space group P2(1)/n, Z = 2, with unit cell parameters of a = 7.

Though hypogonadism is part of the clinical picture of chronic renal failure, its etiology remains unknown. Because of the consequences it may have on the prostate gland, it was decided to conduct a prospective evaluation on its influence on prostatic signs and symptoms and glandular growth in a group of patients with chronic renal failure undergoing dialysis and a second group with renal transplantation. To this end, the presence of symptoms was assessed in 78 subjects over 50 years of age: 22 healthy controls (group C) (28.
