Abstract
BACKGROUND Breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL) epidemiologic studies focus on incidence and risk estimates. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to perform a thorough literature review, and to provide an accurate estimate of BIA-ALCL prevalence in Europe. METHODS We searched PubMed, Web of Science, SCOPUS, and Google Scholar databases to identify publications reporting BIA-ALCL epidemiology. Research was conducted between November 2019 and August 2020. European prevalence was assessed as the ratio between pathology-confirmed cases and breast implant-bearing individuals. The Committee on Device Safety and Development (CDSD) collected data from national plastic surgery societies, health authorities, and disease-specific registries to calculate the numerator. The denominator was estimated by combining European demographic data with scientific reports. RESULTS Our research identified 507 articles: 106 were excluded for not being relevant to BIA-ALCL. From the remaining 401 articles, we selected 35 that discussed epidemiology and 12 reviews. The CDSD reported 420 cases in Europe, with an overall prevalence of 1:13,745 cases in the 28 member states of the European Union (EU-28). Countries where specific measures have been implemented to tackle BIA-ALCL account for 61% of the EU-28 population and actively reported 382 cases with an overall prevalence of 1:9121. CONCLUSION Countries where specific measures have been implemented show a higher prevalence of BIA-ALCL compared with the European mean, suggesting that these countries have improved the detection of the condition and reduced underreporting, which affects the numerator value. Other nations should adopt projections based on these measures to avoid underestimating how widespread BIA-ALCL is. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4

Abstract
Laser wakefield acceleration of electrons holds great promise for producing ultracompact stages of GeV scale, high-quality electron beams for applications such as x-ray free electron lasers and high-energy colliders. Ultrahigh intensity laser pulses can be self-guided by relativistic plasma waves (the wake) over tens of vacuum diffraction lengths, to give >1 GeV energy in centimeter-scale low density plasmas using ionization-induced injection to inject charge into the wake even at low densities. By restricting electron injection to a distinct short region, the injector stage, energetic electron beams (of the order of 100 MeV) with a relatively large energy spread are generated. Some of these electrons are then further accelerated by a second, longer accelerator stage, which increases their energy to ∼0.5 GeV while reducing the relative energy spread to <5% FWHM.

Abstract
The possibility of exciting and filtering various multipolar spin states in proton NMR like dipolar encoded longitudinal magnetization (LM), double-quantum (DQ) coherences, and dipolar order (DO) in strongly inhomogeneous static and radio-frequency magnetic fields is investigated. For this purpose pulse sequences which label and manipulate the multipolar spin states in a specific way were implemented on the NMR-MOUSE (mobile universal surface explorer). The performance of the pulse sequences was also tested in homogeneous fields on a solid-state high-field NMR spectrometer. The theoretical justification of these procedures was shown for a rigid two-spin 1/2 system coupled by dipolar interactions. Dipolar encoded longitudinal magnetization decay curves, double-quantum and dipolar-order buildup curves, as well as double-quantum decay curves were recorded with the NMR-MOUSE for natural rubber samples with different crosslink density. The possibility of using these multipolar spin states for investigations of strained elastomers by NMR-MOUSE is also shown. These curves give access to quantitative values of the ratio of the total residual dipolar couplings of the protons in the series of samples which are in good agreement with those measured in homogeneous fields.

Abstract
A two-dimensional (2D) double-quantum (DQ) experiment under rotational resonance (R(2)) conditions is introduced for evaluating dipolar couplings in rotating solids. The contributions from the R(2)-recoupled dipolar interaction and the J coupling can be conveniently separated in the resulting 2D R(2)-DQ spectrum, so that the unknown dipolar coupling can readily be extracted, provided that the values of the involved J coupling constants are known. Since the measured parameters are integral intensity ratios between suitably chosen absorption peaks in the 2D spectrum, the proposed method is characterized by a reduced sensitivity to relaxation parameters. The effect of rotor-modulated terms, including chemical shift anisotropy, is efficiently averaged out by synchronizing the excitation/reconversion time with the rotor period. All of these features are demonstrated theoretically by the example of two model systems, namely, isolated spin-pairs and a three-spin system. The results of the theoretical models are applied to both (13)C and (1)H nuclei to extract dipolar couplings in uniformly (13)C labeled L-alanine and a crosslinked natural rubber.

Abstract
We report a factor-of-6 shortening of the 240-ps (FWHM) pulses in a triple-pass, 2.5-atm CO(2) amplifier. This technique is based on the self-phase modulation of a 10-mum pulse in a plasma after the first pass of amplification, followed by narrowing of this chirped pulse during further amplification. Subsequently, strong power broadening provides the necessary bandwidth to amplify 40-ps pulses to terawatt power levels.

Abstract
The possibility of exciting and detecting proton NMR double-quantum coherences in inhomogeneous static and radiofrequency magnetic fields was investigated. For this purpose specialized pulse sequences which partially refocus the strongly inhomogeneous evolution of the spin system and generate double-quantum buildup and decay curves were implemented on the NMR MOUSE (mobile universal surface explorer). The theoretical justification of the method was developed for the simple two-spin-1/2 system. The performances of the same pulse sequences were also tested on a solid-state high-field NMR spectrometer. It was shown that DQ decay curves have a better signal-to-noise ratio in the initial time regime than DQ buildup curves. The double-quantum buildup and decay curves were recorded for a series of cross-linked natural rubber samples. These curves give access to quantitative values of the ratio of proton total residual dipolar couplings which are in good agreement with those measured in homogeneous fields. A linear dependence of these ratios on the sulfur-accelerator content was found.

Abstract
The combination of magic-angle spinning and multiple-pulse sequences for line-narrowing in solids with homogeneous spin interactions is analyzed using Floquet theory. It is found that, for quasi-static conditions and for special synchronization conditions, line-narrowing is possible while for other conditions destructive interference of the two techniques takes place. However, even for optimum line-narrowing conditions, fundamental limitations with respect to the achievable linewidth are found, whereas the conditions of recoupling spin interactions are more easily realized. The implications of these results with respect to improving existing line-narrowing techniques or techniques for the design of specific Hamiltonians are discussed.

Abstract
We have developed a three-stage CO(2) master-oscillator-amplifier system that produces 1.1 TW of peak power. The system generates 170 J of energy in a diffraction-limited 160+/-10ps pulse on the 10P(20) line. We also report the realization of a two-wavelength terawatt-peak-power CO(2) laser that can be tuned to an arbitrary pair of lines. A two-stage semiconductor switching system driven by a picosecond-pulse Nd:YAG laser was used to slice a short, low-power 10.6-mum pulse for amplification. A simple plasma shutter helped to compensate for gain narrowing in a final three-pass amplifier and to shorten the pulse.

Abstract
PURPOSE This paper is a study concerning the clinical-imagistic correlations in lacunar infarcts causes and associated lesions in these ones. We made an attempt to find out and emphasize the risk factors, causes and pathogenic mechanisms involved in lacunar syndromes. MATERIALS AND METHODS We studied 138 patients with lacunar infarcts diagnosed by clinical examination and computer tomography. The investigation of risk factors evidenced arterial hypertension in 75 cases (54%). The clinical features of lacunar syndromes were: 1) pure motor stroke 41c; 2) pure sensory stroke 8c; 3) ataxic hemiparesis 9c; 4) dysarthria-clumsy hand 1c; 5) sensorimotor stroke 21c; 6) Landry syndrome 1c. RESULTS We correlated the clinical manifestations and complementary investigations what enabled us to charge in determining of lacunar infarcts: focal microangiopathy-small artery disease (75c), cardio-embolic mechanism (12c), arterio-arteriolar embolic mechanism (15c). The risk factors and pathogenic mechanisms need more adequate research in order to find appropriate prevention and medical attendance.

Abstract
Ethanol is one of the most used substances that produce liver lesions. The differences between species, the pathway of administration and the genetic variation are factors that influence the response of liver to ethanol. The experiment used adult male Wistar rats and the hepatic lesions were assessed using standard histological examination. The results show an increase of triglycerides in liver cells even in acute intoxication, the most affected cells being located in the periphery of the hepatic lobule, associated with a dilatation of blood vessels.

Abstract
The acute toxicity, local tolerance and pharmacokinetic properties of sulbactame manufactured by the Iaşi Antibiotic Investigation Centre, alone or in association with ampicillin or amoxicillin were tested. Some tests were made comparatively with the product Unasyn--Pfizer. The obtained data show that this beta-lactamase inhibitor has a low toxicity--DL50 i.p. in mice over 4,000 mg/kg, both alone or associated with the two semisynthetic beta-lactamic antibiotics. The local tolerance is good and the serum levels of the above mentioned associations are above towards the tested bacteria and are similar or very close to those of Unasyn. It is believed that the therapeutical use of the association sulbactame + ampicillin or sulbactame + amoxicillin is very useful in the beta-lactamase producing germs infection.

Abstract
The teratogen action of Boicil tablets was studied in two animal species, rats and mice, the prefertilization and implantation stages being the main interest. Three generations of animals were followed up. The active powder suspended in distilled water (0.1 ml/10 g for mice and 1 ml/100 g for rats) was administered per os in a single dose, prepared on spot and in two doses, 2 mg/kg body weight and 20 mg kg body weight, respectively. The administered doses were equivalent to the daily maximum therapeutic dose prescribed in humans (110 mg active principle). The first gestational day was determined differently in the two species. For estimating the effect on prefertilization, Boicil tablets was administered for 5 days before making and for its effects on the number of implantations during the first 3 gestational days. The two parameters under investigation were within normal limits and all newborn animals followed up for three generations did not present pathological microscopic and gross alterations or somatic malformations. It was concluded that Boicil tablets is not teratogenic.

Abstract
The sensitivity of the outer and cytoplasmic membranes of Escherichia coli to detergent was examined by isopycnic sucrose density gradient centrifugation. Sodium lauryl sarcosinate (Sarkosyl) was found to disrupt the cytoplasmic membrane selectively under conditions in which Triton X-100 and dodecyl sodium sulfate solubilized all membrane protein. These results were verified by gel electrophoresis; membrane proteins solubilized by Sarkosyl were identical to those of the cytoplasmic membrane. The presence of Mg(2+) during treatment with Sarkosyl was found to afford partial protection of the cytoplasmic membrane from dissolution.

Abstract
Twenty-five strains of Clostridium sordellii were divided into two groups on the basis of spore fine structure. Sixteen strains formed spores with smooth tubular appendages, and nine strains formed spores which lacked appendages. The other properties of the 25 strains were relatively constant. Since the minor strain variability which was encountered did not correlate with spore appendage status, fragmentation of this species on the basis of spore appendage status is not advocated.
