34. A Mild and Efficient Bisaldolization of Ketones and its Application towards Spirocyclic 1,3-Dioxanes and Novel 1,3,5-Trioxocanes.

Abstract

Bisaldolization of aryl alkyl ketones as well as cyclic �ketones with paraformaldehyde in the presence of a catalytic amount of l-proline and low concentration of aqueous sodium �hydroxide has been developed in excellent yields. Further, these bisaldols are elaborated to the corresponding spirocyclic dioxanes and novel spirocyclic trioxocanes in the presence of p-toluene sulfonic acid. The structures and preferred conformations of these eight-membered spirocyclic 1,3,5-trioxocanes are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

35. Obesity: Overview and Management

Author

Bhandari, Kalpana and Srivastava, Shipra

Abstract

Obesity and its comorbid conditions are increasing with an alarming rate throughout the world. The high incidence of obesity and scarcity of effective and reliable treatment have fuelled the development of anti-obesity drugs for many years. Different pharmacological approaches rely on four main lines of action- i) control of energy intake through modification of appetite; ii) control of energy expenditure through thermogenesis; iii) control of fat absorption in the gut through lipase inhibitors and iv) other pharmacological approaches. While many drugs have been introduced for the treatment of obesity, only two have so far been approved by the FDA for long term treatment - orlistat, which acts to prevent dietary fat absorption and sibutramine, which seems to affect both arms of energy balance equation i.e. energy intake as well as energy expenditure. However side effects have limited their use and both the medications have failed to gain a large market. A high proportion of current research is also centered on peptidic control of appetite and the modulation of signals from the adipose tissue. Hunger and satiety signals such as ghrelin, obestatin, peptide YY, the CB1 receptor antagonists such as rimonabant, CP-946,598, highly specific 5-HT2C receptor agonist such as APD356, pancreatic lipase inhibitor e.g. cetilistat (ATL-962) and GT389-255 are potentially attractive therapeutic strategies for treatment of obesity. Also, better understanding of human genetics can make an invaluable contribution to the study of human obesity, pointing toward more targeted and effective therapies. In addition to the analysis of current treatment strategies, this review also focuses on the areas of potentially high productivity in the future.

36. Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus among Wrestlers at a private University in the Southern United States

Abstract

Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a growing threat among athletes. With the discovery of antibiotics, many people believed the problems associated with infectious diseases ended, but a new problem of antibiotic resistance has emerged. Mutated forms of bacteria soon developed resistance to antibiotics. A methicillin resistant strain of Staphylococcus aureus referred to as MRSA was first seen in hospitals and is now considered a major source of nosocomial infection. For a number of years non-hospital associated or Community Associated MRSA (CA-MRSA) has been seen among individuals living in crowded settings. Athletes, including wrestlers, have been particularly prone to these infections because of frequent close contact. Researchers presumed that wrestlers’ behavior is responsible for most transmission and spread of MRSA. The relationship between wrestlers’ lifestyle and transmission of MRSA infection was studied at a private Christian University in the Southeastern United States. Twenty-eight wrestlers were given a brief researcher-developed descriptive survey including demographic, quantitative, and open-ended qualitative questions. The resulting data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The results of this study showed that the majority of wrestlers lack the basic knowledge on personal hygiene and ways to protect themselves from MRSA.
