Síntese e enriquecimento enantiomérico via catálise enzimática do sistema 5-bromo-12-oxa-pentaciclo[6.2.16,9.12,7.12,10]dodeca-4-eno-3-endo-ol e derivados. RMN de 1H e 13C: correlação de parâmetros teóricos e experimentais

Partindo de ciclopentadieno, ciclohexadieno, p-benzoquinona e 2,5-dibromo-pbenzoquinona, os adutos 1, 5, 30 e 31 foram sintetizados. Os adutos 1, 5 e 30 foram utilizados como produtos de partida para a síntese de 13 (treze) novos compostos, em sua maioria com potenciais características para apresentarem atividade biológica inibidora de glicosidases e reguladora da liberação de Insulina no sangue. O aduto 31 é inédito na literatura até o momento. Cinco novas propostas de mecanismos são apresentadas. Os álcoois racêmicos 6 e 29 foram submetidos a reações de transesterificação catalisadas por lipase de Pseudomonas cepacia em diferentes preparações e seus enantiômeros separados com enantiosseletividade (E) maior que 100 em todos os casos. Este processo resultou, também, na obtenção dos respectivos acetatos 43 e 44 enantiomericamente puros e com excelentes rendimentos químicos. Os compostos 6, 29 e 34 depois de terem suas estruturas moleculares resolvidas através dos métodos espectroscópicos de rotina, tiveram suas estruturas moleculares calculadas pelo método ab initio e por Funcionais de Densidade. As geometrias otimizadas foram submetidas ao método GIAO para o cálculo dos tensores de blindagem magnética isotrópica. Estes cálculos mostraram-se eficazes na descrição dos deslocamentos químicos da maioria dos átomos, incluindo os dos anéis ciclopropanos presentes nas estruturas moleculares de cada composto. Algumas dificuldades foram encontradas para a descrição do sistema vinílico halogenado dos álcoois 6 e 29. Foram utilizadas moléculas modelo para verificar a extensão de tais dificuldades.

Prevalencia de anemia, asociada a coeficiente intelectual en escolares de 6 a 12 años de Cuenca, 2007

Objetivo: Determinar la prevalencia de anemia en escolares de 6 a 12 años del área urbana de la ciudad de Cuenca y su relación con el coeficiente intelectual. Diseño: Se realizó un estudio transversal durante los meses de noviembre y diciembre de 2007 en el área urbana de la ciudad de Cuenca del austro ecuatoriano. Se eligieron 4 escuelas aleatoriamente hasta completar el tamaño muestral de 261 niños. Se recogieron los datos antropométricos (peso y talla); se determinaron los valores de hemoglobina y se realizó un test psicológico. Resultados: La prevalencia general de anemia fue de 9,6, y de los escolares afectados el 77,77tenían anemia por déficit de hierro. El parámetro antropométrico que mostró la mayor asociación con la presencia de anemia fue la relación entre la estatura y la edad (OR: 1,35 IC: 1,33 - 9,21). La variable anemia se asoció significativamente al coeficiente intelectual en un 17. El porcentaje de niños con desnutrición crónica fue de 11,9y riesgo de desnutrición del 15,7El tipo de escuela se asoció levemente al coeficiente intelectual (p= 0.03) (OR: 1,87 IC: 1,05 - 3,39). No se encontró ninguna relación entre la prevalencia de anemia por un lado, y el sexo por el otro. Tampoco existió relación entre la variable sexo y el coeficiente intelectual. Conclusiones: La anemia en general y la anemia ferropénica en particular, no constituyen un problema de salud pública en la población estudiada. Los escolares con talla alta tienen menor riesgo de desarrollar anemia. La anemia se asoció significativamente al coeficiente intelectual

6 versus 12 month performance of polycaprolactone-based scaffold plus recombinant human morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) in an ovine thoracic interbody fusion model

Introduction Well-designed biodegradable scaffolds in combination with bone growth factors offer a valuable alternative to the current gold standard autograft in spinal fusion surgery Yong et al. (2013). Here we report on 6- vs 12- month data set evaluating the longitudinal performance of a CaP coated polycaprolactone (PCL) scaffold loaded with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) as a bone graft substitute within a large preclinical animal model. Methods Twelve sheep underwent a 3-level (T6/7, T8/9 and T10/11) discectomy with randomly allocated implantation of a different graft substitute at each of the three levels; (i) calcium phosphate (CaP) coated polycaprolactone based scaffold plus 0.54µg rhBMP-2, (ii) CaP coated PCL- based scaffold alone or (iii) autograft (mulched rib head). Fusion assessments were performed via high resolution clinical computed tomography and histological evaluation were undertaken at six (n=6) and twelve (n=6) months post-surgery using the Sucato grading system (Sucato et al. 2004). Results The computed tomography fusion grades of the 6- and 12- months in the rhBMP-2 plus PCL- based scaffold group were 1.9 and 2.1 respectively, in the autograft group 1.9 and 1.3 respectively, and in the scaffold alone group 0.9 and 1.17 respectively. There were no statistically significant differences in the fusion scores between 6- and 12- month for the rhBMP plus PCL- based scaffold or PCL – based scaffold alone group however there was a significant reduction in scores in the autograft group. These scores were seen to correlate with histological evaluations of the respective groups. Conclusions The results of this study demonstrate the efficacy of scaffold-based delivery of rhBMP-2 in promoting higher fusion grades at 6- and 12- months in comparison to the scaffold alone or autograft group within the same time frame. Fusion grades achieved at six months using PCL+rhBMP-2 are not significantly increased at twelve months post-surgery.
