Published: August 2014

Optically active seven-membered lactones, dimethyleneoxazepanones, were readily prepared in good yields from chiral β-(N-propargylic)amino-α-methylene carboxylic acid tert-butyl esters in the presence of catalytic amounts of Ph3PAuCl and Cu(OTf)2. A smooth 7-exo-dig cyclization was observed.

Effectiveness of psychological interventions in reducing post-traumatic stress among post-myocardial infarction patients: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Eur J Cardiovasc Nurs

Alice Lee Centre for Nursing Studies, Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore, Level 5, Centre for Translational Medicine, Block MD 6, 14 Medical Drive, Singapore 117599, Singapore.

Aims: Myocardial infarction (MI) can lead to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) which frequently occurs with anxiety and depression, impairing daily functioning and increasing the risk of recurrent cardiovascular events. While psychological interventions have shown promise in reducing anxiety and depression, their effectiveness for PTSD in post-MI patients remains unexplored. This systematic review and meta-analysis aim to evaluate the effectiveness of psychological interventions on PTSD, anxiety, and depression in post-MI patients.

Susac syndrome can resemble various disorders resulting in a delayed or missed diagnosis and subsequent delays in treatment. Here, we present how successful consideration of patient history, symptoms, and ancillary testing led to prompt diagnosis and treatment of Susac syndrome by ophthalmologists. A 27-year-old active duty infantryman presented with sudden vision loss in the right eye during strenuous exercise after experiencing similar symptoms in the left eye 5 months earlier.

Polarization Switching from Valence Trapping in an Oxo-Bridged Trinuclear Iron Complex.

J Am Chem Soc

January 2025

Institute for Materials Chemistry and Engineering and IRCCS, Kyushu University, 744 Motooka, Nishi-ku, Fukuoka 819-0395, Japan.

Switching electric polarization by external stimuli constitutes a technical foundation for various applications. Here, we reported the observation of polarization-switching behavior in an oxo-bridged mixed-valence complex [FeO(piv)(py)] (piv = pivalate, py = pyridine). Detailed variable-temperature Mössbauer spectral analyses unambiguously confirm the occurrence of an electron localization-delocalization transition between two inequivalent Fe sites.

The increasing prevalence of antimicrobial resistance and adverse effects of systemic treatments calls for urgent reevaluation of current methods that rely on excessive, uncontrolled drug administration. In recent years triggerable systems have emerged as promising alternatives, enabling time-controlled and localized drug release, which are only activated if necessary. Light is an obvious candidate as an external trigger, since it allows for localized activation, is non-invasive and its wavelength and intensity can be tailored to fit the demands of the drug release system.

Temporal Association Cortex Gates Sound-Evoked Arousal from NREM Sleep.

Adv Sci (Weinh)

January 2025

Department of Neurobiology, College of Basic Medicine, Army Medical University, Chongqing, 400038, China.

Sound-evoked wakefulness from sleep is crucial in daily life, yet its neural mechanisms remain poorly understood. It is found that CaMKIIα+ neurons in the temporal association cortex (TeA) of mice are not essential for natural awakening from sleep. However, optogenetic activation of these neurons reliably induces wakefulness from non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep but not from rapid eye movement (REM) sleep.
