Herein, we report the first total synthesis of elgonene B and its congeners, thus resulting in a revision of the configuration at the C-6 carbon of the originally proposed structure of elgonene B. This synthetic approach demonstrates the utility of several important reactions such as the chiral oxazaborolidinium ion-catalyzed Diels-Alder reaction, Ando's Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons olefination, and the intermolecular Nozaki-Hiyama-Kishi reaction as key steps. Additionally, the study explores the cytotoxic and antibacterial activities of elgonene B and its congeners (-).

Importance: Radiotherapy (RT) plan quality is an established predictive factor associated with cancer recurrence and survival outcomes. The addition of radiologists to the peer review (PR) process may increase RT plan quality.
Objective: To determine the rate of changes to the RT plan with and without radiology involvement in PR of radiation targets.

Objectives: Phosphorus-31 magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (P-MRSI) is a non-invasive tool for assessing cellular high-energy metabolism in-vivo. However, its acquisition suffers from a low sensitivity, which necessitates large voxel sizes or multiple averages to achieve an acceptable signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), resulting in long scan times.
Materials And Methods: To overcome these limitations, we propose an acquisition and reconstruction scheme for FID-MRSI sequences.

Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) II is a cortical malformation characterized by cortical architectural abnormalities, dysmorphic neurons, with or without balloon cells. Here, we systematically explored the pathophysiological role of the GATOR1 subunit NPRL3 variants including a novel mutation from iPSCs derived from one FCD II patient. Three FCD II children aged 0.

Background: Obesity is the primary cause of metabolic associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). Healthy lifestyle management has potential value in the treatment of MASLD.
Methods: A total of 150 patients with MASLD diagnosed at the Health Management Center of our hospital were enrolled and randomly divided into a traditional treatment (control group, n=75) and healthy lifestyle group (observation group, n=75).
