RESUMO
An efficient catalytic asymmetric electrophilic sulfenylation reaction for the synthesis of planar-chiral sulfur-containing cyclophanes has been developed for the first time. This was achieved by using a new Lewis base catalyst and a new ortho-trifluoromethyl-substituted sulfenylating reagent. Using the substrates with low rotational energy barrier, the transformation proceeded through a dynamic kinetic resolution, and the high rotational energy barrier of the substrates allowed the reaction to undergo a kinetic resolution process. Meanwhile, this transformation was compatible with a desymmetrization process when the symmetric substrates were used. Various planar-chiral sulfur-containing cyclophanes were readily obtained in moderate to excellent yields with moderate to excellent enantioselectivities (up to 97 % yield and 95 % ee). This approach was used to synthesize pharmaceutically relevant planar-chiral sulfur-containing molecules. Density functional theory calculations showed that π-π interactions between the sulfenyl group and the aromatic ring in the substrate play a crucial role in enantioinduction in this sulfenylation reaction.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: To study the clinical and genetic features of Joubert syndrome (JS) in children. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data, genetic data, and follow-up data of 20 children who were diagnosed with JS in the Department of Children's Rehabilitation, the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, from January 2017 to July 2022. RESULTS: Among the 20 children with JS, there were 11 boys and 9 girls. The common clinical manifestations were developmental delay (20 children, 100%), abnormal eye movement (19 children, 95%), and hypotonia (16 children, 80%), followed by abnormal respiratory rhythm in 5 children (25%) and unusual facies (including prominent forehead, low-set ears, and triangular mouth) in 3 children (15%), and no limb deformity was observed. All 20 children (100%) had the typical "molar tooth sign" and "midline cleft syndrome" on head images, and 6 children (30%) had abnormal eye examination results. Genetic testing was performed on 7 children and revealed 6 pathogenic genes, i.e., the CPLANE1, RPGRIP1L, MKS1, CC2D2A, CEP120, and AHI1 genes. CONCLUSIONS: For children with developmental delay, especially those with abnormal eye movement and hypotonia, it is recommended to perform a head imaging examination to determine the presence or absence of "molar tooth sign" and "midline cleft syndrome", so as to screen for JS to avoid missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis. There are many pathogenic genes for JS, and whole-exome sequencing can assist in the diagnosis of JS.

Enantioselective synthesis of axially chiral sulfur-containing biaryl derivatives through the electrophilic sulfenylation of biaryl phenols has been achieved for the first time. This catalytic asymmetric system, which involves sequential desymmetrization and kinetic resolution, is enabled by a combination of a novel 3,3'-disubstituted BINOL-derived selenide catalyst and an achiral sulfonic acid. Control experiments and computational studies suggest that multiple noncovalent interactions between the cocatalysts and substrate, especially a network of hydrogen bond interactions, play a crucial role in determining the enantioselectivity and reactivity.
RESUMO
Two new cyclotrypyamine alkaloids equisetinines A and B, as well as three known alkaloids (3-5) were isolated from the stems of Ephedra equisetina Bunge. Their structures were characterized by spectroscopic methods, and the absolute configurations of the new compounds were determined by interpretation of their electronic circular dichroism. Anti-asthmatic activities of compounds were evaluated by releasing ß-Hex in C48/80-induced RBL-2H3 cells, and compound 5 exhibited significant anti-asthmatic activities.
RESUMO
Atroposelective electrophilic sulfenylation of N-aryl aminoquinone derivatives has been achieved for the first time. This transformation is enabled by a new chiral 6,6'-disubstituted SPINOL-derived sulfide catalyst, which was first synthesized and then successfully explored for catalyzing enantioselective reactions. Various axially chiral sulfur-containing diarylamine derivatives were readily obtained in moderate to excellent yields with moderate to excellent enantioselectivities. A class of relatively flexible stereogenic C-N axes was easily constructed. The experimental results and a computational study suggested that an intramolecular N-Hâ â â S hydrogen bond is important for the stability of the C-N axis, which is consistent with our hypothesis. Density functional theory calculations revealed the origin of atroposelectivity and underscored the importance of catalyst rigidity in this sulfenylation reaction.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of rehabilitation treatment based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health-Children and Youth Version (ICF-CY) Core Sets on activities of daily living in children with cerebral palsy. METHODS: The children with cerebral palsy were divided into an observation group (n=63) and a control group (n=59) using a random number table. The children in the observation group were evaluated using the brief ICF-CY Core Sets for children under 6 years to identify intervention targets and develop rehabilitation plans and goals, and then specific methods were selected for rehabilitation treatment. The children in the control group were evaluated and treated with the traditional rehabilitation mode. The scores of the Functional Independence Measure for Children (WeeFIM) and the Infants-Junior Middle School Students' Social-Life Abilities Scale were assessed for both groups before treatment and after three courses of treatment. The intervention of environmental factors was compared between the two groups. RESULTS: There was no significant difference in the scores of the WeeFIM and Social-Life Abilities scales between the two groups before treatment (P > 0.05). After treatment, both groups had significant increases in the scores of the WeeFIM and Social-Life Abilities scales (P < 0.001). The observation group had significantly higher scores of WeeFIM and Social-Life Abilities scales than the control group after treatment (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the use rate of orthosis between the two groups (P > 0.05), but the use rate of assistive devices for self-help, transfer and communication, the rate of facility renovation, and the rate of family rehabilitation guidance in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The rehabilitation treatment regimen for cerebral palsy based on the CF-CY Core Sets pays more attention to the influence of environmental factors in the process of rehabilitation and can effectively improve the activities of daily living of children with cerebral palsy.

Fabrication of a multifunctional near-infrared (NIR) theranostic nanoplatform has attracted increasing attention. Indocyanine green (ICG), a clinic-approved NIR fluorescence-imaging agent, is an excellent photothermal agent candidate. However, the stability and tumor targeting are still great obstacles for its wide application. In this work, C-phycocyanin (CPC) as a tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) targeted vehicle was used to fabricate noncovalent ICG conjugate of CPC (ICG@CPC) via self-assembly in aqueous media. Compared to free ICG, ICG@CPC displays improved stabilities in aqueous solutions and under light irradiation and threefold increase in photothermal conversion efficiency. The in vitro results indicated that ICG@CPC could be selectively internalized into J774A.1 cells via SR-A-mediated endocytosis and lead to enhanced photocytotoxicity against J774A.1 cells. In vivo results showed that ICG@CPC had significantly improved drug accumulation in the tumor and photothermal therapeutic efficacy relative to ICG alone. This study for the first time utilizes CPC as a TAMs-targeted nanocarrier for ICG and may promote further rational design of ICG-based photothermal nanodrugs for precise and efficient cancer theranosis.

A boy, aged 6 months, had the manifestations of intellectual and motor developmental delay, head instability, general weakness, unawareness of grasping objects by hands, and unusual facies (slightly wide eye distance, epicanthus, esotropia, mouth-opening appearance, short philtrum, and low-set ears). Gene detection results showed a de novo heterozygous frameshift mutation of the CHAMP1 gene at the chromosomal location of chr13:115089847, and nuclear acid was changed to c.530delCinsTTT, resulting in a change in amino acid to p.S177Ffs*2. Therefore, the boy was diagnosed with autosomal dominant intellectual disability-40 caused by the mutation in the CHAMP1 gene. This case report suggests that for children with unexplained intellectual disability, especially those with generalized hypotonia and severe language disorder, the possibility of CHAMP1 gene mutation should be considered, and genetic testing should be performed as early as possible.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the nutritional status of children with cerebral palsy (CP) and the clinical effectiveness of Subjective Global Nutritional Assessment (SGNA) in nutritional assessment of hospitalized children with CP. METHODS: A total of 208 children with CP, aged 1-5 years, who were hospitalized from April to October 2019 were enrolled as subjects. SGNA was used to investigate nutritional status, and the Z-score method recommended by the World Health Organization was used as a reference standard to validate the clinical effectiveness of SGNA. RESULTS: The detection rate of malnutrition in children with CP was 42.3% by SGNA and 39.4% by the Z-score method (P>0.05). The application of SGNA showed high consistency between different evaluators (κ=0.621, P<0.001). With the Z-score method as the reference standard, SGNA had a sensitivity of 80.5%, a specificity of 82.5%, a positive predictive value of 75.0%, and a negative predictive value of 86.7%, and high consistency was observed between the two evaluation methods (κ=0.622, P<0.001). SGNA was moderately consistent with weight-for-age Z-score and height-for-age Z-score (κ=0.495 and 0.478 respectively, P<0.001) and was poorly consistent with weight-for-height Z-score (κ=0.197, P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: There is a relatively high incidence rate of malnutrition in children with CP. SGNA can be used as a tool to assess the nutritional status of children with CP.

A divergent strategy for the facile preparation of various enantioenriched phenylthio-substituted lactones was developed based on Lewis base/Brønsted acid co-catalyzed thiolation of homoallylic acids. The acid-controlled regiodivergent cyclization (6-endo vs. 5-exo) and acid-mediated stereoselective rearrangement of phenylthio-substituted lactones were explored. Experimental and computational studies were performed to clarify the origins of the regioselectivity and enantioselectivity. The calculation results suggest that C-O and C-S bond formation might occur simultaneously, without formation of a commonly supposed catalyst-coordinated thiiranium ion intermediate and the potential π-π stacking between substrate and SPh as an important factor in the enantio-determining step. Finally, this methodology was applied in the rapid syntheses of the bioactive natural products (+)-ricciocarpinâ A and (R)-dodecan-4-olide.
RESUMO
Four Hamilton receptors and four cyanuric acid modules were introduced into the tetraphenylethylene skeleton to form HTPE and CTPE, respectively. Upon 1 : 1 mixing of HTPE and CTPE in apolar dilute solution, a self-assembled supramolecular network was formed via multiple intermolecular hydrogen bonding interactions. The intramolecular rotation of phenyls in TPE skeletons was restricted, and thus the system became highly luminescent. Upon the addition of a hydrogen bonding competitive solvent to destroy the network, the fluorescence emission was substantially quenched. Besides, the fluorescence of the system could be further tuned by the addition of Cu2+ and other metal ions.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of suspension exercise training on motor and balance functions in children with spastic cerebral palsy. METHODS: A total of 97 children with spastic cerebral palsy were randomly divided into an observation group with 49 children and a control group with 48 children. Both groups were given routine rehabilitation training, and the children in the observation group were given suspension exercise training in addition. The scores of the D and E domains of the 88-item version of the Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM-88) and Berg Balance Scale (BBS) were recorded before treatment and at 1, 3, and 6 months after treatment. Surface electromyography was performed to observe the changes in the root mean square (RMS) of surface electromyogram signals of the adductor muscle and the gastrocnemius muscle. RESULTS: Over the time of treatment, both groups had varying degrees of improvement in the scores of the D and E domains of GMFM-88 and BBS. Compared with the control group, the observation group had significantly greater improvements in D and E functional areas and balance function (P<0.05). Both groups had reductions in the RMS of the surface electromyogram signals of the adductor muscle and the gastrocnemius muscle over the time of treatment, and the observation group had significantly greater reductions than the control group (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Suspension exercise training can effectively improve the motor and balance functions of children with spastic cerebral palsy.

OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of ketogenic diet (KD) on neurobehavioral development, emotional and social behaviors, and life ability in children with global developmental delay (GDD). METHODS: A prospective case-control study was performed for hospitalized children with GDD, who were randomly divided into KD treatment group (n=40) and conventional treatment group (n=37). The children in both groups were given comprehensive rehabilitation training, and those in the KD treatment group were given modified Atkins diet in addition to the comprehensive rehabilitation training. The children in both groups were assessed with the Gesell Developmental Scale, Chinese version of Urban Infant-Toddler Social and Emotional Assessment (CITSEA)/Achenbach Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL), and Infants-Junior High School Students' Social Life Abilities Scale (S-M scale) before treatment and after 3, 6, and 9 months of treatment. The two groups were compared in terms of the improvements in neurobehavioral development, emotional and social behaviors, and social life ability. RESULTS: After 3, 6, and 9 months of treatment, the KD treatment group had significantly greater improvements in the scores of the adaptive, fine motor, and language quotients of the Gesell Developmental Scale compared with the conventional treatment group (P<0.05); the KD treatment group had significantly greater improvements in CITSEA/CBCL scores than the conventional treatment group (P<0.05). The KD treatment group had a greater improvement in the score of the S-M scale after 9 months of treatment (P<0.05). During the KD treatment, 6 children experienced diarrhea and 1 experienced mild urinary stones. CONCLUSIONS: KD can improve the neurobehavioral development and behavioral and emotional behaviors in children with GDD, and it has few adverse effects.

Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is one of the prevalent and deadly cancers worldwide, especially in Eastern Asia. Recent studies show that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have critical roles in diverse biological processes, including tumorigenesis. In the present study, we find that the expression of lncRNA SPRY4-IT1 is significantly upregulated in ESCC cell lines as compared with human esophageal epithelial cell line HEEC. Overexpression of SPRY4-IT1 can increase in vitro motility of ESCC cells via induction of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), which is characterized by increasing the expression of vimentin (Vim) and fibronectin (FN) with a concomitant decrease of E-cadherin (E-Cad) and ZO-1, while silencing of SPRY4-IT1 significantly inhibits the in vitro motility of ESCC cells. Further, the knockdown of SPRY4-IT1 also significantly attenuates TFG-ß-induced EMT of ESCC cells. Further, lncRNA SPRY4-IT1 can directly increase the transcription, expression, and nuclear localization of Snail, one key transcription factor during the EMT processes of cancer cells, while siRNA-mediated specific knockdown of Snail can significantly attenuate SPRY4-IT1-induced EMT of ESCC cells. Our results suggest that lncRNA SPRY4-IT1 might be considered as a novel oncogene involved in ESCC progression.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the long-term clinical efficacy and adverse effects of botulinum toxin-A (BTX-A) injection in the treatment of gastrocnemius spasticity in children aged 9-36 months with cerebral palsy. METHODS: Eighty children aged 9-36 months with cerebral palsy and gastrocnemius spasticity were selected and randomly divided into a BTX-A injection group and a conventional treatment group (n=40 each). The children in the BTX-A injection group received injections of BTX-A guided by color Doppler ultrasound and 4 courses of rehabilitation training after injection. Those in the conventional treatment group received 4 courses of the same rehabilitation training alone. Before treatment and at 1, 2, 3, and 6 months after treatment, the modified Tardieu scale (MTS) was applied to assess the degree of gastrocnemius spasticity, the values in the passive state measured by surface electromyography (sEMG) were applied to evaluate muscle tension, and the Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM) was used to evaluate gross motor function. RESULTS: Compared with the conventional treatment group, the BTX-A injection group had significantly greater reductions in MTS score and the values in the passive state measured by sEMG (P<0.05), as well as significantly greater increases in joint angles R1 and R2 in MTS and gross motor score in GMFM (P<0.05). No serious adverse reactions related to BTX-A injection were found. CONCLUSIONS: BTX-A injection is effective and safe in the treatment of gastrocnemius spasticity in children aged 9-36 months with cerebral palsy.

OBJECTIVE: To study the therapeutic effects of different doses of botulinum toxin A (BTX-A) injection on tiptoe deformation in children with cerebral palsy. METHODS: A total of 256 children with tiptoe deformation due to spastic cerebral palsy were classified into group A (muscle tension levels I-II, n=147) and group B (muscle tension levels III-IV, n=109). Group A was randomly divided into group A1 (injected with high-dose BTX-A, n=73) and group A2 (injected with low-dose BTX-A, n=74). Group B was randomly divided into group B1 (injected with high-dose BTX-A, n=55) and group B2 ( injected with low-dose BTX-A, n=54). The dose of BTX-A was 6 U/kg for groups A1 and B1 and was 3 U/kg for groups A2 and B2. Before the injection and at 1,2,6, and 12 months after injection, the muscle tension of limbs was evaluated with the modified Ashworth Scale, and the recovery of motor function of lower limbs was assessed with the Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM). RESULTS: Before and after treatment, there were no significant differences in Ashworth and GMFM scores between groups A1 and A2 (P>0.05). After treatment, group B1 had a significantly reduced Ashworth score and a significantly increased GMFM score, and group B1 had a significantly lower Ashworth score and a significantly higher GMFM score compared with group B2 (P<0.05). For groups A and B, Ashworth score gradually declined post-treatment, reached the lowest point at 3 months after treatment, and returned to the level before treatment at 12 months after treatment; GMFM score gradually increased post-treatment and reached the peak level at 12 months after treatment (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The level of muscle tension should be considered when BTX-A injection is used for treating tiptoe deformation in children with cerebral palsy. It makes no difference to use high- or low-dose BTX-A when the muscle tension level is within I-II, but high-dose BTX-A has a better performance in reducing muscle tension and improving motor function when the muscle tension level is within III-IV.

OBJECTIVE: To study the clinical efficiency, electroencephalogram (EEG) changes and cognitive improvements of ketogenic diet (KD) in children with refractory epilepsy. METHODS: Twenty pediatric patients (7-61 months in age) with refractory epilepsy were recruited between August 2012 and August 2013. KD therapy was performed on all participants for at least 3 months based on a fasting initiation protocol with the lipid-to-nonlipid ratio being gradually increased to 4 : 1. Seizure frequency, type and degree were recorded before and during KD therapy. A 24â hours video-electroencephalogram (V-EEG) examination and Gesell Developmental Scale assessment were performed prior to KD therapy, and 3, 6, 9 months after KD therapy. RESULTS: Six patients became seizure free after KD therapy, with a complete control rate of 30%. Seizure frequency reduction occurred in 13 (65%) patients, EEG improvement in 8 (40%) patients, and improvement in Gesell Developmental Scales (gross motor and adaptability in particular) in 6 (30%) patients. The KD therapy-related side effects were mild. CONCLUSIONS: KD therapy is safety and effective in reducing seizure frequency and improving EEG and cognitive function in children with refractory epilepsy.

The atroposelective electrophilic sulfenylation of biaryl anilines has been realized for the first time. The reaction is enabled by a new chiral 6,6'-dianisole substituted SPINOL-derived selenide. A variety of axially chiral sulfur-containing biaryl aniline compounds were obtained in moderate to excellent yields with moderate to excellent enantioselectivities. The experimental results suggest that catalyst rigidity is important for the high atroposelectivity.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To explore clinical effect of intermittent flap opening technique in L-shaped incision of calcaneal fracture. METHODS: From January 2017 to January 2019, 48 patients with Sanders typeâ ¡ to â £ calcaneal fractures were treated by open reduction and internal fixation. According to different flap opening techniques, the patients were divided into control group and observation group, 24 patients in each group. In observation group, there were 17 males and 7 females, aged from 20 to 60 years old with an average of(45.12±9.56) years old;7 patients were typeâ ¡, 10 patients were type â ¢ and 7 patients were type â £ according to Sanders classification;3 patients were C0, 16 patients were C1 and 5 patients were C2 according to Tscherne-Gotzen soft-tissue assessment;treated with intermittent flap technique. In control group, there were 19 males and 5 females aged from 20 to 60 years old with an average of (47.32±10.67) years old;7 patients were typeâ ¡, 11 patients were type â ¢ and 6 patients were type â £ according to Sanders classification;2 patients were C0, 18 patients were C1 and 4 patients were C2 according to Tschemc-Gotzen soft-tissue assessment;treated with static flap opening technique. Operation time, flap retraction time, changes of Böhler angle and Gissane angle before and after operation at 3 days, and occurrence of incision complications were observed and compared between two groups. RESULTS: All patients were followed up from 3 to 6 months with an average of(4.52±1.01) months. There were no significant differences in operation time, changes of Böhler angle and Gissane angle before and after operation at 3 days between the two groups(P>0.05);there was statistical difference in flap retraction time between two groups(P<0.05). Occurrence of incision complications in observation group was significantly lower than that in control group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Intermittent flap opening technique is superior to static opening technique in reducing incision complications of lateral "L" approach of calcaneus. Single Kirschner wire opening does not affect the exposure, reduction and fixation of fracture during operation.

OBJECTIVE: To explore methods and clinical effects of selective U-shaped osteotomy of lateral tibial condyle in treating collapse and comminuted fracture of lateral tibial plateau. METHODS: From January 2014 to October 2019, 15 patients with collapse and comminuted fracture of lateral tibial plateau were treated by selective U-shaped osteotomy of lateral tibial condyle, including 9 males and 6 females. The age of patients ranged from 25 to 70 years old, with an average age of (38.5±7.7) years old. According to ABC classification of condyle fracture of tibial plateau lateral, there were 2 cases of type A, 6 cases of type B, 4 cases of type BC and 3 cases of type C. Five patients were combined with medial plateau fracture, 8 patients were combined with left knee fracture and 7 patients of right knee fracture. The time of treatment after injury ranged from 1 day to 14 days with an average of (3.4±1.2) days. CT of all patients showed that lateral tibial plateau collapsed more than 2 mm, more than 2 pieces of bones were crushed and broken, and lateral tibial condyle cortex was intact. At follow-up of 12 months after operation, Rasmussen's anatomical grading system was used to evaluate fracture reduction. Rasmussen's functional grading system were used to evaluate knee joint function. RESULTS: Selective U-shaped osteotomy was successfully complated in 15 patients at one time, and operation time ranged from 55 to 110 min, with an average time of (85.6±20.0) min. The lateral plateau operation ranged from 20 to 60 min with an average time of(30.5±10.5) min. All patients were followed up for 12 to 24 months with an average of (14.6±2.5) months. Fracture healing time was 12 to 24 weeks, with an average of (13.6±3.6) weeks. At follow-up 12 months after operation, by Rasmussen's grading system, anatomical score of knee joint ranged from 14 to 18 points, with an average score of (17.5±0.3) points, of which 13 cases were excellent and 2 cases were good. The functional score ranged from 13 points to 30 points, with an average score of (26.8±2.5) points. Among them, 12 cases were excellent, 1 case was good, 2 cases were fair. Two patients suffered 2 mm and 4 mm loss of lateral tibial plateau, 1 case of knee joint 5 ° valgus, 1 case of stiff joints (10 ° to 100 °). No common peroneal nerve injury, important vascular injury, postoperative infection, internal fixation failure and other serious complications was found. CONCLUSION: The use of selective lateral tibial condyle "U"- shaped osteotomy approach is an effective and reliable method to treat the collapse and comminuted fracture of the lateral tibial plateau. It has the advantages of simple surgical incision, direct fracture exposure, accurate repositioning and fixation, short operation time and few complications.
