The stabilization of the transition state through a favorable interaction between the double bond of 1 and the carbonyl group of 2 appears to be responsible for the high diastereoface selectivity of the aldol reaction. This key step in the highly concise total synthesis of epothilone B is followed by a Suzuki coupling to introduce the thiazole domain, a Noyori reduction to control the stereochemistry at C3, and a final macrolactonization (see reaction scheme). X=protecting group.

Brain iron deposition and cognitive decline in patients with cerebral small vessel disease : a quantitative susceptibility mapping study.

Alzheimers Res Ther

January 2025

Department of Radiology, Weill Medical College of Cornell University, New York, NY, USA, Meinig School of Biomedical Engineering, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY, USA.

Background: Quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) can study the susceptibility values of brain tissue which allows for noninvasive examination of local brain iron levels in both normal and pathological conditions.

Purpose: Our study compares brain iron deposition in gray matter (GM) nuclei between cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) patients and healthy controls (HCs), exploring factors that affect iron deposition and cognitive function.

Materials And Methods: A total of 321 subjects were enrolled in this study.

A machine learning model accurately identifies glycogen storage disease Ia patients based on plasma acylcarnitine profiles.

Orphanet J Rare Dis

January 2025

Laboratory of Metabolic Diseases, Department of Laboratory Medicine, University Medical Center Groningen, University of Groningen, Hanzeplein 1, Postbus, Groningen, 30001 - 9700 RB, the Netherlands.

Background: Glycogen storage disease (GSD) Ia is an ultra-rare inherited disorder of carbohydrate metabolism. Patients often present in the first months of life with fasting hypoketotic hypoglycemia and hepatomegaly. The diagnosis of GSD Ia relies on a combination of different biomarkers, mostly routine clinical chemical markers and subsequent genetic confirmation.

Indirect determination of hemoglobin A2 reference intervals in Pakistani infants using data mining.

BMC Med Inform Decis Mak

January 2025

Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, The Aga Khan University Hospital, Stadium Road, Karachi, 74800, Pakistan.

Background: Reference intervals (RIs) are crucial for distinguishing healthy from sick individuals and vary across age groups. Hemoglobinopathies are common in Pakistan, making the quantification of hemoglobin variants essential for screening. Direct RIs are established by measuring values from a healthy reference population, whereas indirect RIs, use statistical analysis of routine lab data to estimate values, making it feasible in settings where direct data is unavailable.

The experiences of organizational silence among nurses: a qualitative meta-synthesis.

BMC Nurs

January 2025

Nursing Department, School of Medicine, Shanghai Tenth People's Hospital, Tongji University, Shanghai, 200072, China.

Objective: A growing body of research shows that the organizational silence among nurses not only affects their job satisfaction and performance but also exacerbates their intention to leave their jobs, posing a threat to the long-term stability of the nursing team. Therefore, the aim of this study was to synthesize existing qualitative research to explore the real experiences of nurses' organizational silence behavior and gain insight into the motivations and feelings behind it.

Design: A qualitative review.
