Halide mediated modulation of magnetic interaction and anisotropy in dimeric Co(II) complexes.

Dalton Trans

June 2024

Department of Basic Sciences, Chemistry Discipline, Institute of Infrastructure Technology Research and Management, Near Khokhra Circle, Maninagar East, Ahmedabad-380026, Gujarat, India.

The burgeoning interest in the field of molecular magnetism is to perceive the high magnetic anisotropy in different geometries of metal complexes and hence to draw a magneto-structural correlation. Despite a handful of examples to exemplify the magnetic anisotropy in various coordination geometries of mononuclear complexes, the magnetic anisotropies for two different coordination geometries are underexplored. Employing an appropriate synthetic strategy utilizing the ligand LH [2,2'-{(1,1')-pyridine2,6-diyl-bis(methaneylylidine)}-bis(azaneylylidine)diphenol] and cobalt halide salts in a 1 : 2 stoichiometric ratio in the presence of triethylamine allowed us to report a new family of dinuclear cobalt complexes [CoII2X(L)(P)(Q)]·S with varying terminal halides [X = Cl, P = CHCN, Q = HO, S = HO (1), X = Br, P = CHCN, Q = HO, S = HO (2), X = I, P = CHCN, and Q = CHCN (3)].

Article Synopsis
  • Cervical cancer is a major global health issue, particularly affecting women, and is mainly caused by persistent high-risk HPV infections. The study highlights ongoing disparities in outcomes linked to socioeconomic factors and access to screening in the Kyrgyz Republic.
  • A retrospective analysis of 1,338 cervical cancer cases from 2012 to 2017 revealed an increase in prevalence rates, with notable variances across different regions of the country, particularly in urban areas like Bishkek and Osh.
  • The findings stress the effectiveness of screening programs like Pap smears in reducing cervical cancer rates but also underline the urgent need for improved strategies to tackle existing disparities in healthcare access and outcomes.

Anthrax remains a threat, especially in countries like Kyrgyzstan with developed livestock farming. Despite preventive efforts, sporadic outbreaks endure on an annual basis, transmitted from infected animals to humans. Here, we report a severe anthrax case in an 8-month-old child known to be caused when a sick calf was slaughtered in the neighborhood without proper protocols, resulting in intra-family infection.

Development and psychometric evaluation of a Total Worker Health® practice scale.

Ann Work Expo Health

June 2024

Department of Public Health Sciences, University of Connecticut School of Medicine, 263 Farmington Avenue, Farmington, CT 06030-8077, United States.

Objective: Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) professionals increasingly need to assess and mitigate a broad scope of worker safety, health, and well-being concerns that extend beyond traditional OSH training curricula. Work-related and non-work-related psychosocial hazards, chronic physical and mental health conditions, and changing work arrangements call for an integrative, public health approach to occupational risk management; this approach has been called, "Total Worker Health®" by United States public health authorities (Schulte et al. 2019).

Often with minimal formal training and protections, informal welders face significant occupational health and safety (OSH) risks. This cross-sectional study of 219 adult informal welders at 70 informal welding sites in Mwanza City, Tanzania aimed to: 1) capture knowledge and awareness of occupational risks and safety precautions, training, and self-reported work-related injuries and illness and 2) observe worker use of personal protective equipment and site safety. We hypothesized that knowledge, awareness, and site inspections would improve use of PPE and that improved safety and site inspections would reduce self-reported injuries and illness.

Context: Osteopathic treatments regulate the neurovegetative system through joint mobilizations and manipulations, and myofascial and craniosacral techniques. Despite the growing body of research, the precise impact of osteopathic medicine on the autonomic nervous system (ANS) is not yet fully elucidated. As to Kuchera's techniques, the stimulation of the sympathetic trunk and prevertebral ganglia contributed to harmonization of the sympathetic activity.

Objective: Ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms (rAAAs) are highly morbid emergencies. Not all hospitals are equipped to repair them, and an air ambulance network may aid in regionalising specialty care to quaternary referral centres. The association between travel distance by air ambulance and rAAA mortality in patients transferred as an emergency for repair was examined.

Article Synopsis
  • The study examines the relationship between new plasma biomarkers and cognitive abilities, decline, and daily living independence in various neurodegenerative diseases.
  • Researchers measured biomarkers like GFAP, NfL, p-tau181, and Aβ in 44 healthy individuals and 480 patients with Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, frontotemporal dementia, or cerebrovascular diseases.
  • Results showed that GFAP, NfL, and p-tau181 levels were higher in all disease groups compared to healthy controls and were linked to poorer cognition and independence, with p-tau181 being specifically relevant for Alzheimer’s patients.

Purpose: Treatments in medicine impact individuals beyond their intended effects, due to phenomena such as the placebo and nocebo effects. The placebo effect arises from the positive expectation of a treatment being beneficial, while the nocebo effect stems from the negative expectation of a treatment causing harm. Both in real-world practice and clinical trials, treatments can lead to outcomes unrelated to their intended mechanism of action, which we categorize as placebo and nocebo responses.

Tuning the potency and selectivity of ImmTAC molecules by affinity modulation.

Clin Exp Immunol

February 2024

Immunocore Limited, Drug Discovery and Protein Engineering, Abingdon, Oxon, UK.

T-cell-engaging bispecifics have great clinical potential for the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. The binding affinity and kinetics of a bispecific molecule for both target and T-cell CD3 have substantial effects on potency and specificity, but the rules governing these relationships are not fully understood. Using immune mobilizing monoclonal TCRs against cancer (ImmTAC) molecules as a model, we explored the impact of altering affinity for target and CD3 on the potency and specificity of the redirected T-cell response.

Background: Specialized occupational health and safety (OHS) issues are covered at the EU level through detailed legislation and guidelines. Unfortunately, this does not extend to occupational heat stress, not only in Greece but also (with few exceptions) internationally. One possible explanation could be the difficulty in accurately identifying the dangerous conditions, as many environmental and individualized elements are involved, and hundreds of "thermal stress indicators" are available.
