Regiodivergent annulations of 3-phenoxy alkynyl indoles have been developed and tuned by protective groups through gold catalysis. With electron-donating protective groups, the substrate followed a C3-selective annulation and gave structurally interesting tetrahydro-β-carboline derivatives possessing potential bioactivity. Using electron-withdrawing protective groups, the substrate underwent a C2-selective annulation and afforded the structurally useful spiro-pseudoindoxyl found in natural indole alkaloids. Notably, an interesting and unusual 1, 2-migration of the phenoxy group was found in the C3-selective process.

Background: Dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) are both effective in treating borderline personality disorder (BPD). Impulsivity and impaired decision-making are prominent features of BPD, and therapeutic interventions targeting these symptoms could lead to significant improvements.
Objective/hypothesis: We hypothesized that intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS), a modified rTMS protocol that targets the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, would enhance the therapeutic effects of DBT, leading to greater improvements in impulsivity and decision-making compared with sham stimulation.

Background: Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) quickly spread around the world after its initial identification in Wuhan, China in 2019 and became a global public health crisis. COVID-19 related hospitalizations and deaths as important disease outcomes have been investigated by many studies while less attention has been given to the relationship between these two outcomes at a public health unit level. In this study, we aim to establish the relationship of counts of deaths and hospitalizations caused by COVID-19 over time across 34 public health units in Ontario, Canada, taking demographic, geographic, socio-economic, and vaccination variables into account.

Aim: Although the relief of ureteral obstruction seems to be a radical treatment for obstructive uropathy (OU), progressive kidney damage is the result because of the associated increased apoptosis and fibrosis. Therefore, it is urgent to find a complementary renoprotective therapy against partially obstructed uropathy cascades. Thus, this study investigated the renoprotective effects of both losartan (LOS) and zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) in partial unilateral ureteral obstruction (PUUO).

Background: Inadequate bowel perfusion is among risk factors for colorectal anastomotic leaks. Perfusion can be assessed with indocyanine green fluorescence angiography (ICG) during colon resections. Possible benefits from its systematic use in high-risk patients with rectal cancer remain inconsistent.

Disability and multimorbidity increase with aging and constitute a challenge for the health system. However, different individuals display different aging trajectories, and understanding the underlying relationships between lifespan and disease is fundamental for identifying the different patterns in human lifespan. A previous study explored associations between lifespan and age of onset of diseases of different organ systems, prevalence of escapers, and percentage of life free of disease (health span), comparing them between genders in Catalonian population.
