Five cardioactive steroid genins 1a to 5a of widely varying C17 beta-side groups were converted by modified Koenigs-Knorr reactions into the corresponding beta-D-glucosides 1c to 5c and beta-D-galactosides 1e to 5e. The genins included digitoxigenin (3 beta, 14-dihydroxy-5 beta, 14 beta-card-20-(22)-enolide, 1a); (20R)-20, 22-dihydrodigitoxigenin (3 beta, 14-dihydroxy-5 beta, 14 beta, 20R-cardanolde, 2a); 3 beta, 14-dihydroxy-22-methylene-5 beta, 14 beta, 20S-cardanolide (3a); methyl 3 beta, 14-dihydroxy-5 beta, 14 beta-pregn-20(E)-ene-21-carboxylate (4a); and methyl 3 beta, 14-dihydroxy-21-methylene-5 beta, 14 beta-pregnane-21-carboxylate (5a).

Background: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most lethal diseases. Although several chemotherapy regimens have been developed over the past decades, few targeted therapies have shown a significant improvement in overall survival, partly due to the identification of PDAC as a single disease.
Methods: Combining metabolomic analysis and immunohistochemistry staining with Oil Red O staining, analysis for the oxygen consumption rate and extracellular acidification rate, we stratified pancreatic cancer cells into two subtypes.

Importance: This study addresses the characteristics, kidney replacement therapy (KRT) modalities, and outcomes in children diagnosed with crush syndrome following an earthquake in Turkey.
Objective: To analyze the associations of different KRT modalities with long-term dialysis dependency and length of stay (LOS) in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU).
Design, Setting, And Participants: This multicenter, prospective, and retrospective cohort study was conducted across 20 PICUs in Turkey.

Background: The impact of fatty liver disease on lumbar bone mineral density (BMD) represents an intriguing area of study, particularly in light of established research linking obesity to bone metabolism. However, there remains limited investigation into the correlation between quantifying liver fat content (LFC) and lumbar BMD among overweight and obese populations, particularly within the Chinese demographic. This study aims to accurately quantify LFC and investigate its association with lumbar BMD in overweight or obese individuals.
