[Purpose] Patients with chronic unilateral vestibular hypofunction show decreased postural stability and low levels of physical activity and also experience much anxiety. Physical activity is known to improve these symptoms; however, no study has reported any positive effects of physical activity, such as symptom reduction or improvement in function in these patients. In this study, we investigated the role of a walking program in improvement of dizziness, anxiety, and postural stability in this patient population. [Participants and Methods] This study included 21 patients with unilateral vestibular hypofunction and chronic dizziness. Patients were instructed to walk 30 min daily for 3 months. Physical activity levels and questionnaires for clinical symptoms, anxiety, and postural stability were evaluated before and after intervention. [Results] We observed significant differences in the amount of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity, clinical symptoms, and self-perceived handicap before and after the intervention. Additionally, anxiety levels were significantly reduced and postural stability was significantly improved in these patients. [Conclusion] A walking program improved physical activity levels, clinical symptoms, and postural stability and reduced self-perceived handicap and anxiety in patients with chronic unilateral vestibular hypofunction. These results highlight the effectiveness of a walking program for these patients and emphasize its role as a complementary vestibular rehabilitation strategy.

Catalytic control of chemoselectivity is crucial in the synthesis of highly functionalized compounds. Although there are reports of efficient chemoselective reactions of alcohols and amines as nucleophiles, there are no reports of the chemoselective activation of alcohols and amines as electrophiles. In this study, highly O- and N-selective electrophilic activation of allylic alcohols and amines was achieved in Pd-catalyzed direct allylic alkylation. Allylamines were inherently more reactive than allylic alcohols (N-selectivity). On the other hand, the addition of catalytic amounts of 9-phenanthreneboronic acid preferentially activated allylic alcohols over allylamines (O-selectivity). Density functional theory (DFT) calculations suggested that the N-selectivity is due to the selective activation of allylic amines with ammonium cations, and boronate formation accelerates the activation of allylic alcohols.

This note describes the construction of tetrasubstituted carbon stereocenters via palladium-catalyzed allylation of sp3 C–H bonds of 2,2,2-trifluoroethylamine derivatives. The presence of 2-pyridyl group of the imines derived from 1-substituted-2,2,2-trifluoroethylamine was key to promoting the reaction efficiently, allowing an access to a variety of 1-allylated 2,2,2-trifluoroethylamine derivatives with tetrasubstituted carbon stereocenters.
