A convenient method for determining the absolute configuration of chiral secondary alcohols using the racemic NMR anisotropy reagent, (+/-)-2-methoxy-2-(1-naphthyl)propionic acid [(+/-)-M(alpha)NP acid], and an HPLC-CD detector was developed. The method was successfully applied to some chiral alcohols derived from (-)-alpha-santonin.

Background: The D-dimer to lymphocyte ratio (DLR), a novel inflammatory biomarker, had been shown to be related to adverse outcomes in patients with various diseases. However, there was limited research on the relationship between the DLR and adverse outcomes in patients with infectious diseases, particularly those with sepsis. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the association between the DLR and in hospital all-cause mortality in elderly patients with sepsis.

The development of artificial intelligence (AI) based medical Internet of Things (IoT) technology plays a crucial role in making the collection and exchange of medical information more convenient. However, security, privacy, and efficiency issues during information exchange have become pressing challenges. While many scholars have proposed solutions based on AI and blockchain to address these issues, few have focused on the impact of the slow consensus algorithm of blockchain on the efficiency of information exchange.

Background: Each year, nearly 400,000 new cases of paediatric hydrocephalus are estimated to occur worldwide, and almost half of these cases are expected to affect children in Africa. At Queen Elizabeth Central Hospital (QECH), an urban tertiary hospital in Blantyre, Malawi, located in south-east Africa, around 200 children received neurosurgical treatment for hydrocephalus in 2023. These children require lifelong follow-up and care, which places significant demands on their caregivers.
