Familial hypercholesterolæmia in children and adolescents: Gaining decades of life by optimizing detection and treatment
2015
Contains fulltext : 155263.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access) Familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH) is a common genetic cause of premature coronary heart disease (CHD). Globally, one baby is born with FH every minute. If diagnosed and treated early in childhood, individuals with FH can have normal life expectancy. This consensus paper aims to improve awareness of the need for early detection and management of FH children. Familial hypercholesterolaemia is diagnosed either on phenotypic criteria, i.e. an elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) level plus a family history of elevated LDL-C, premature coronary artery disease and/or genetic diagnosis, or positive genetic testin…
Synthesis, crystal structures and magnetic properties of bis(μ-dialkoxo)-bridged linear trinuclear copper(II) complexes with aminoalcohol ligands: a …
2012
The bis(μ-dialkoxo)-bridged trinuclear copper(II) complexes [Cu(3)(ap)(4)(ClO(4))(2)EtOH] (1), [Cu(3)(ap)(4)(NO(3))(2)] (2), [Cu(3)(ap)(4)Br(2)] (3) and [Cu(3)(ae)(4)(NO(3))(2)] (4) (ae = 2-aminoethanolato and ap = 3-aminopropanolato) have been synthesised via self-assembly from chelating aminoalcohol ligands with the corresponding copper(II) salts. The complexes are characterised by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses and variable temperature magnetic measurements. The crystal structures of complexes 1-4 consist of slightly bent linear or linear trinuclear [Cu(3)(aa)(4)](2+) (aa = aminoalcoholato) units to which the perchlorate, nitrate or bromide anions are weakly coordinated. The a…
Top consumer abundance influences lake methane efflux
2015
Lakes are important habitats for biogeochemical cycling of carbon. The organization and structure of aquatic communities influences the biogeochemical interactions between lakes and the atmosphere. Understanding how trophic structure regulates ecosystem functions and influences greenhouse gas efflux from lakes is critical to understanding global carbon cycling and climate change. With a whole-lake experiment in which a previously fishless lake was divided into two treatment basins where fish abundance was manipulated, we show how a trophic cascade from fish to microbes affects methane efflux to the atmosphere. Here, fish exert high grazing pressure and remove nearly all zooplankton. This re…
A comparative study of the sealing ability of two root canal obturation techniques
1995
A comparison was made of the ability of two root canal obturating techniques to prevent dye microleakage: gutta-percha lateral condensation and mechanically plasticized gutta-percha (JS Quick-fill). Twenty central incisors were prepared and obturated by each technique. After rendering the teeth transparent, linear dye penetration was found to be 0.48 and 0.52 mm, respectively. The difference between the two techniques was not significant. As for the distribution of the sealing cement (AH26) in the teeth obturated with JS Quickfill, the cement was located in the most peripheral zone of the obturation alongside the dentinal walls, whereas the gutta-percha was found in the central part of the …
Ferromagnetic coupling through the oxalate bridge in heterobimetallic Cr(III)–M(II) (M = Mn and Co) assemblies
2019
Abstract Two novel compounds, {[Cr(pyim)(ox)2]2Mn}n·2nCH3OH (1) and {[Cr(pyim)(ox)2]2Co(H2O)2}·7.5H2O (2) [pyim = 2-(2′-pyridyl)imidazole and H2ox = oxalic acid], were synthesized by using the mononuclear chromium(III) complex PPh4[Cr(pyim)(ox)2]·H2O (PPh4+ = tetraphenylphosphonium) as metalloligand towards the fully solvated manganese(II) (1) and cobalt(II) (2) ions as perchlorate salts. The structure of 1 consists of neutral double chains, with diamond-shaped units sharing the manganese(II) ions with the two other corners being occupied by the chromium(III) ions. The two metal centres in 1 are connected by bis-bidentate oxalate groups, each [CrIII(pyim)(ox)2]− unit being bound to two mang…

The crystal structures of 1–4 contain bis(pyrazolate)(perchlorate)- (1 and 3), bis(pyrazolate)(aqua)- (2 and 3), …
Synthesis and crystal structure of the low-spin iron(II) complex [Fe(bpz)3](ClO4)2·H2O (bpz=2,2′-bipyrazine)
2004
Abstract The crystal structure of the title compound [Fe(bpz) 3 ](ClO 4 ) 2 · H 2 O (bpz=2,2 ′ -bipyrazine) has been determined by a single crystal X-ray diffraction study at 293(2) K. The complex is monoclinic, P 2 1 / c , a =17.263(3), b =9.983(2), c =17.921(4) A, β =107.94(3)°, V =2938.3(10) A 3 , Z =4, R =0.073 and R w =0.118. The structure is made up of tris-chelated [Fe(bpz) 3 ] 2+ cations, uncoordinated perchlorate anions and crystallization water molecules. The iron atom exhibits a FeN 6 distorted octahedral geometry with average Fe–N bond length and N–Fe–N bidentate angle of 1.962(5) A and 81.6(2)°. The value of the Fe–N bond distance and that of the room temperature magnetic mome…

2012
The preparation and crystal structures of six new copper(II) compounds of formula [Cu(dppn)2(ClO4)]ClO4 (1), [Cu2(dppn)(OH)(ClO4)3(H2O)3]·H2O (2), [Cu2(dppn)2(H2O)2](ClO4)4 (3), [Cu2(dppn)2(ClO4)4] (4), {[Cu2(dppn)(N3)4]·H2O/[Cu2(dppn)(N3)4(H2O)]}n (5) and {[Cu2(dppn)(OH)(dca)3]·H2O}n (6) [dppn = 3,6-bis(2′-pyridyl)pyridazine and dca = dicyanamide] are reported. 1 is a mononuclear complex where two bidentate dppn molecules and a monodentate perchlorate build an intermediate square pyramidal/trigonal bipyramidal (sp/tbp) five-coordinate environment around the copper(II) ion, the overall positive charge being balanced by a free perchlorate anion. 2–4 are dinuclear complexes with either one (2…

2017
Two new complexes of the formula [{Cu(bpca)}2(μ-tppz)](NO3)2·5H2O (1) and [Cu(bpca)(H2O)(ClO4)(μ-bpp)Cu(bpca)(H2O)2]ClO4·H2O (2) [tppz = 2,3,5,6-tetra(2-pyridyl)pyrazine and bpp = 1,3-bis(4-pyridyl)propane] have been prepared by the reaction of the [Cu(bpca)]+ [Hbpca = bis(2-pyridylcarbonyl)imide] building block and the tppz and bpp N donors. An unusual coordination mode of the tppz ligand was observed in 1, which functions as a bis(bidentate) ligand to two copper(II) atoms each coordinated to a nitrogen atom of the pyrazine moiety and a pyridyl nitrogen atom. This compound presents a layered structure of alternating anionic (ca. 1.6 A) and cationic (ca. 10 A) slices, providing the opportun…
