Article Abstract

A catalyst and transition-metal free 1,6-conjugate addition of azobisisobutyronitrile to -quinone methides for the synthesis of isobutyronitrile containing diarylmethanes has been achieved. This protocol enables the synthesis of isobutyronitrile containing diarylmethanes in good yields and with a broad substrate scope. This is the first example wherein azobisisobutyronitrile has been used as a cyanide source for 1,6-conjugate addition under catalyst and metal-free conditions.

Purpose: Real‑time magnetic resonance-guided radiation therapy (MRgRT) integrates MRI with a linear accelerator (Linac) for gating and adaptive radiotherapy, which requires robust image‑quality assurance over a large field of view (FOV). Specialized phantoms capable of accommodating this extensive FOV are therefore essential. This study compares the performance of four commercial MRI phantoms on a 0.

Background: Work-related stress is a well-established contributor to mental health decline, particularly in the context of burnout, a state of prolonged exhaustion. Epigenetic clocks, which estimate biological age based on DNA methylation (DNAm) patterns, have been proposed as potential biomarkers of chronic stress and its impact on biological aging and health. However, their role in mediating the relationship between work-related stress, physiological stress markers, and burnout remains unclear.

Background: The treatment of critically ill patients in intensive care units is becoming increasingly complex. For example, organ transplants are regularly carried out, the recipients are seriously ill, and the postoperative course can be complicated. This is why organ replacement and hemadsorption procedures are becoming increasingly important.
