Tight sandstone reservoirs are a primary focus of research on the geological exploration of petroleum. However, many reservoir classification criteria are of limited applicability due to the inherent strong heterogeneity and complex micropore structure of tight sandstone reservoirs. This investigation focused on the Chang 8 tight reservoir situated in the Jiyuan region of the Ordos Basin.

Rampant dendrite formation and serious adverse parasitic reactions induced by migration of dissolved V/Mn cathode ions on Zn anode have hampered the high performance of aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs). Inspired by the coordination chemistry between functional groups of polymer and electrolyte ions, a freestanding layer consisting of dopamine-functionalized polypyrrole (DA-PPy) nanowires served as a selective ion transport layer at the anode-electrolyte interface to address these two issues, which could simultaneously avoid polarization caused by the introduction of an additional interface. On the one hand, the DA-PPy layer displays excellent zinc ion and charge transfer ability, as well as provides chemical homochanneling for zinc ions at the interface, which endow the DA-PPy layer with properties as a chemical guider and physical barrier for dendrite inhibition.

Article Synopsis
  • This network meta-analysis compares the effectiveness and safety of tirzepatide with glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RA) and other FDA-approved weight loss drugs for treating obesity and overweight.
  • The analysis reviewed 31 randomized controlled trials involving over 35,000 patients, highlighting that tirzepatide 15 mg is highly effective for weight loss and improving metabolic health markers compared to placebo.
  • Both tirzepatide and GLP-1 RA showed significant weight loss benefits, but they also led to increased gastrointestinal side effects compared to placebo, suggesting they are promising treatments for obesity.

Isoxazoles and isoxazolines are five-membered heterocyclic molecules containing nitrogen and oxygen. Isoxazole and isoxazoline are the most popular heterocyclic compounds for developing novel drug candidates. Over 80 molecules with a broad range of bioactivities, including antitumor, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic, cardiovascular, and other activities, were reviewed.

Article Synopsis
  • - Recent research indicates that tirzepatide, a medication that interacts with gut hormones, effectively promotes weight loss in individuals with overweight or obesity, as shown in a systematic review and meta-analysis of clinical trials.
  • - The analysis involved approximately 5800 patients, revealing that a significant percentage achieved notable weight loss (≥5%: 78.22%, ≥10%: 55.60%, ≥15%: 32.28%) and that higher doses of tirzepatide led to greater weight loss compared to placebo and another drug, semaglutide.
  • - While there were some gastrointestinal side effects linked to tirzepatide, they were not substantially different from those experienced with semaglutide,

This article reports in detail a method for the synthesis of 3-benzoxoxazoline by the reaction of alkenes (alkynes) and a variety of α-nitroketones in the presence of -TsOH. The scope of alkenes is broad, including different alkenes and the alkyne. This reaction provides a convenient and efficient synthetic method of 3-benzoylisoxazolines.

Background And Aims: Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is the most common cause of liver disease. However, there is lack of comparison of efficacy between different NASH drug classes. We conducted a network meta-analysis evaluating drug classes through comparing histological outcomes and targets of drugs.

Background & Aims: Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Studies examining the association of coronary heart disease (CHD) and NAFLD are cofounded by various cardiometabolic factors, particularly diabetes and body mass index. Hence, we seek to explore such association by investigating the global prevalence, independent risk factors, and influence of steatosis grade on manifestation of CHD among patients with NAFLD.

In this study, 3-benzoylisoxazolines were synthesized by reacting alkenes with various α-nitroketones using chloramine-T as the base. The scope of α-nitroketones and alkenes is extensive, including different alkenes and alkynes to form various isoxazolines and isoxazoles. The use of chloramine-T, as the low-cost, easily handled, moderate base for 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition is attractive.

A novel dimeric flavonol glycoside, Cynanflavoside A (), together with six analogues, kaempferol-3---L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→2)--D-glucopyranoside (), quercetin-3---L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→2)--D-glucopyranoside (), kaempferol-3---L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→2)--D-xylopyranoside (), quercetin-3---L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→2)--D-xylopyranoside , kaempferol-3---D-glucopyranosyl-7---L-rhamnopyranoside (), and quercetin-3--galactoside () were isolated from the -butyl alcohol extract of subsp. . Their structures were determined spectroscopically and compared with previously reported spectral data.

The existing catalytic enantioselective cross-dehydrogenative coupling of cyclic amines predominantly focused on reactive N-aryl tetrahydroisoquinolines, which typically suffered from limited substrate generality and synthetic utility, and required the use of metal catalyst. Herein, a metal-free catalytic enantioselective cross-dehydrogenative coupling of N-carbamoyl cyclic amines and aldehydes has been reported for the first time. Employing an easily installed and functionalized acyl protecting group rather than the widely adopted aryl moiety endows the enantioselective process with better substrate generality and broader synthetic utility.
