In organic chemistry, the E i mechanism (Elimination Internal/Intramolecular), also known as a thermal syn elimination or a pericyclic syn elimination, is a special type of elimination reaction in which two vicinal (adjacent) substituents on an alkane framework leave simultaneously via a cyclic transition state to form an alkene in a syn elimination.

The thalidomide molecule is a synthetic derivative of glutamic acid and consists of a glutarimide ring and a phthaloyl ring (Figure 5). [15] [16] Its IUPAC name is 2-(2,6-dioxopiperidin-3-yl)isoindole-1,3-dione and it has one chiral center [15] After thalidomide's selective inhibition of TNF-α had been reported, a renewed effort was put in thalidomide's clinical development.
Electron ionization (EI, formerly known as electron impact ionization [1] and electron bombardment ionization [2]) is an ionization method in which energetic electrons interact with solid or gas phase atoms or molecules to produce ions. [3]
Over two years, this hospital treated more than 500 patients with the Therac-25 with no incident. On March 21, 1986, a patient presented for his ninth treatment session for a tumor on his back. The treatment was set to be 22-MeV of electrons with a dose of 180 rad in an area of 10x17 cm, with an accumulated radiation in 6 weeks of 6000 rad.
Seed oils — plant-based cooking oils often used in processed, packaged foods — have been linked to an increased risk of colon cancer, according to a new study published in the medical journal Gut.
A patient with a paralysis is referred to an oncologist if the condition is caused by a cancer metastasis in the spinal cord; a treatment by a neurologist is a secondary consideration. Likewise, renal insufficiency is sometimes caused by heart problems, and the treatment is thus led by a cardiologist. In psychiatry, however, grouping mental ...
Whole-person specialty care, a model where a comprehensive care team works together to coordinate personalized and individualized treatment, is offering renewed hope for patients.
The Detroit Free Press reported at the time that 634 of the jobs being cut then were at the GM Global Technical Center in Warren based on information provided to the state of Michigan.
