Palladium-catalyzed ortho-amidation of indole-3-carboxylic acids with isothiocyanates by using the deciduous directing group nature of carboxyl functionality to afford indole-2-amides is demonstrated. Both C-H functionalization and decarboxylation took place in one pot, and hence, this carboxyl group served as a unique, deciduous (or traceless) directing group. This reaction offers a broad substrate scope as demonstrated for several other heterocyclic carboxylic acids like chromene-3-carboxylic acid, imidazo[1,2- a]pyridine-2-carboxylic acid, benzofuran-2-carboxylic acid, pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid, and thiophene-2-carboxylic acid. In the reaction using 2-naphthoic acid, of the two possible isomers, only one isomer of the amide was exclusively formed. The indole-2-amide product underwent palladium-catalyzed C-H functionalization to afford the diindole-fused 2-pyridones by combining two molecules of the indole moiety, with the elimination of an amide group from one of them, attached at the C3-position for the C-C/C-N bond formation. The structures of key products are confirmed by X-ray crystallography.

Centre for Trauma Sciences, Blizard Institute, Queen Mary University of London, London, England.
Background: In severely injured trauma patients, hypofibrinoginaemia is associated with increased mortality. There is no evidence-based consensus for what constitutes optimal fibrinogen therapy, treatment dose or timing of administration. The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the effects of early fibrinogen replacement, either cryoprecipitate or fibrinogen concentrate (FgC) on mortality, transfusion requirements and deep venous thrombosis (DVT).

Background: Workplace bullying (WPB) is common in nursing profession, leading to adverse effects on nurses' health and teamwork. Although it has been suggested that psychological capital (PsyCap) could potentially moderate the relationship between WPB and emotional exhaustion, there is currently a lack of direct empirical evidence supporting this claim. Therefore, this study aims to examine how PsyCap moderates the relationship between WPB and emotional exhaustion in nurses.

Introduction: Unsupervised feature learning methods inspired by natural language processing (NLP) models are capable of constructing patient-specific features from longitudinal Electronic Health Records (EHR).
Design: We applied document embedding algorithms to real-world paediatric intensive care (PICU) EHR data to extract patient-specific features from 1853 patients' PICU journeys using 647 unique lab tests and medication events. We evaluated the clinical utility of the patient features via a K-means clustering analysis.

Background: Neuroblastoma, a prevalent extracranial solid tumor in pediatric patients, demonstrates significant clinical heterogeneity, ranging from spontaneous regression to aggressive metastatic disease. Despite advances in treatment, high-risk neuroblastoma remains associated with poor survival. SLC1A5, a key glutamine transporter, plays a dual role in promoting tumor growth and immune modulation.

Background: Tuberculosis remains an infectious disease of global concern, with potential impacts on respiratory and intestinal microbiota owing to prolonged broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy. Despite its potential to cause infertility, the vaginal microbiota of women with genital tuberculosis remains poorly understood. We comprehensively analyzed the vaginal microbiota in Chinese women with genital tuberculosis.
