Crystallographic data for 1: C12H8O16Cu3, Mr = 598.80, orthorhombic, Pbcn, a = 8.4378(6), b = 10.0396(7), c = 17.6799(12)A, V = 1497.70(18)A^3, Z = 4, De = 2.656 g/cm^3, μ = 4.327 mm^-1, F(000) = 1180, R = 0.0431 and wR = 0.0964 for 1075 observed reflections (I 〉 2σ(I)). X-ray crystal structural analysis revealed that the mellitate anions behave as the bridging ligands and link eight copper atoms repeatedly to form a novel three-dimensional metal-organic coordination polymer with two different rhombic tunnels in the solid-state structure.展开更多

Adult subjects(age ≥ 35 years) without known diabetes, were included. A modified version of FINDRISC was completed, and the glycemia values from all the subjects were collected from the hospital's database. Firstly, a cross-sectional analysis was performed and then, the subsample of prediabetic participants was followed for diabetes incidence. RESULTS: A total of 772 subjects were suitable for the study. The overall prevalence of undiagnosed DM2 was 2.59%, and the incidence of DM2 among the prediabetic participants was 7.5 per 100 person-years after a total of 265257 person-years follow-up. The FINDRISC at baseline was significantly associated with undiagnosed and incident DM2. The area under receiver operating characteristics curve of the FINDRISC score for detecting undiagnosed DM2 in both men and women was 0.7477 and 0.7175, respectively; and for predicting the incidence of DM2 among prediabetics was 71.99% in men and 67.74% in women. CONCLUSION: The FINDRISC questionnaire is a useful screening tool to identify cross-sectionally unknown DM2 and to predict the incidence of DM2 among prediabetics in the Colombian population.展开更多
Two novel 3-D coordination compounds, Nd2[C6(COO)6](H2O)6 (1)and Ho2[C6(COO)6](H2O)6 (2), were hydrothermaily synthesized from mellitic acid and neodymium perchlorate (or holmium perchlorate) in the alka...Two novel 3-D coordination compounds, Nd2[C6(COO)6](H2O)6 (1)and Ho2[C6(COO)6](H2O)6 (2), were hydrothermaily synthesized from mellitic acid and neodymium perchlorate (or holmium perchlorate) in the alkaline aqueous solution and characterized with elemental analysis, TG, IR spectrum, and single crystal X-ray diffraction. The two compounds were isostructural and crystallized in the orthorhombic system, space group Pnnm, with a=1.3531 (4) nm, b=0.6687 (2) nm, c=1.0224(3) nm, V=0.92523(5) nm^3, Z=4, D=2.630 g/cm^3, F(000)=696.0, Goof=1.052. Final R indices [1 〉2∑(Ⅰ)]: R1=0.0195, wR2=0.0382 for 1; a=1.3411 (2) nm, b=0.6586(1) nm, c=1.0116(2) nm, V=0.8935(3) nm^3, Z=4, D=2.877 g/cm^3, F(000)=724.0, Goof=1.061. Final R indices [1 〉2∑(Ⅰ)]: R1=0.0200, wR2=0.0479 for 2. In the two compounds 1 and 2, the mellitic acid ligand, in which all the carboxylate groups were deprotonated, had only one kind of coordination mode to bridge metal ions to form four-connected three-dimensional diamondiod networks.展开更多
