Article Abstract

Arcutinidine and other arcutinidine-type diterpenoid alkaloids feature an intricate polycyclic, bridged framework with unusual connectivity. A chemical network analysis approach to the arcutane skeleton enabled the identification of highly simplifying retrosynthetic disconnections, which indicated that the caged structure could arise from a simpler fused ring system. On this basis, a total synthesis of arcutinidine is reported herein, featuring an unprecedented oxopyrrolium Diels-Alder cycloaddition which furnishes a key tetracyclic intermediate. In addition, the synthesis utilizes a diastereoselective oxidative dearomatization/cycloaddition sequence and a SmI-mediated C-C coupling to forge the bridged framework of the natural products. This synthetic plan may also enable future investigations into the biosynthetic relationships between the arcutanes, the related diterpenoid atropurpuran, and other diterpenoid alkaloids.

This study investigated the impact of dietary zeolite supplementation on growth, cecal microbiota and digesta viscosity, digestive enzymes, carcass traits, blood constituents, and antioxidant parameters of broilers. A completely randomized design was used with 240 one-day-old broiler chicks randomly assigned to three dietary treatments (0%, 1.5%, and 3% zeolite as a feed additive) with four replicates of 20 chicks each.

Background: Disturbances in lipid metabolism are usually associated with hyperlipidemia, which is commonly observed in donkeys with inappetence or anorexia. The diagnostic utility of ultrasound measurements of croup fat thickness (CFT) and relative liver echogenicity for lipomobilization in donkeys with fasting-induced hyperlipidemia was investigated. A prospective observational control study involving 25 donkeys was conducted, and the animals were randomly assigned to a fasting group (FG, n = 20) and a control group (CG, n = 5).

U-shaped association of body roundness index with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in individuals with chronic kidney disease.

Ren Fail

December 2025

Department of Nephrology, Kidney Disease Medical Center, Tianjin Medical University General Hospital, National Key Clinical Specialty, Tianjin Key Medical Discipline, Tianjin, China.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the association between body roundness index (BRI) and deaths from all causes and cardiovascular disease (CVD) in participants with chronic kidney disease (CKD).

Materials And Methods: The data was sourced from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 1999-2018. Cox proportional hazards regression along with restricted cubic splines were applied to assess the associations of BRI with deaths from all causes and CVD in individuals with CKD.

Background: The CRP-albumin-lymphocyte (CALLY) index has potential clinical value as a novel marker integrating inflammatory, nutritional and immune status in the development of colorectal polyps. This study examined whether gender factors influence the association between CALLY and colorectal polyps; in addition to elucidating whether metabolic pathways mediate this relationship.

Methods: This is a cross-sectional study including 5409 adult health screening participants who completed colonoscopy.
