We assessed the urinary concentration of 16 phthalate metabolites in 57 women with and without uterine leiomyoma (n = 30 and 27; respectively) to determine the association between phthalate exposure and uterine leiomyoma. To evaluate exposure to di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP); we calculated the molar sum of DEHP metabolites; ∑3-DEHP (combining mono-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (MEHP); mono-(2-e...

AIM To compare atomoxetine (ATX) length of therapy (LoT) among adults with ADHD who reached the recommended dose of 80 mg/day (ATX ≥ 80) versus those who did not (ATX < 80) analyzed separately in patients prescribed ATX as monotherapy (mono) and in combination with other ADHD medications (combo). METHODS This was a retrospective observational cohort study of the Truven Health Marketscan Comme...

an investigation was carried out on permethrin-susceptible and resistant strain of malaria vector, an.stephensi. efficacy of several pyrethroids such as permetrhrin, deltamethrin, lambdacyhalothrin, cypermethrin and cyfluthrin against this species showed that those with an α-cyano group and dibromo substitutions were more toxic to sensitive strains than the other classes like permethrin. the ra...

Using a readily available form of the mono-phosphine ligand, Gorlos-Phos·HBF4, Pd-catalyzed borylation of aryl chlorides afforded aryl boronates in high yields. A variety of functional groups are well compatible with this palladium catalyzed borylation reaction.

A chemoselective hydrosilylation method for aldehydes is developed using a ruthenium catalyst [(Ru(p-cymene)Cl2)2] and triethylsilane; a mono hydride bridged dinuclear complex [{(η(6)-p-cymene)RuCl}2(μ-H-μ-Cl)] and a Ru(iv) mononuclear dihydride complex [(η(6)-p-cymene)Ru(H)2(SiEt3)2] are identified as potential intermediates in the reaction and the proposed catalytic cycle involves a 1,3-hydri...

Functionalization of N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) has an important influence on their stability, Lewis donor, and acceptor properties. In this study, we report on the selective functionalization of a four-membered N-heterocyclic bis-silylene (2,6-Ar2C6H3NSi:)2 (1) (Ar = 2,4,6-iPr3C6H2) with mono-oxygen sources N2O and Me3NO. Treatment of 1 with N2O results in the selective formation of mono-s...
