In this work, we study the contributions that different molecular blocks have in the wavelength-dependence of the refractive index in ionic liquids. The ionic liquids chosen for this work are combinations of the bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide anion with cations based on four different heterocycles with different extents of charge delocalization. The analysis is performed in terms of the experimental electronic polarizability, which is obtained by combining measurements of refractive index curves and densities via the Lorentz-Lorenz equation.

Staged nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) following mastopexy or breast reduction has become increasingly utilized in patients with large or ptotic breasts. The safety and efficacy of this approach has been demonstrated in recent years. However, the optimal timing between stages has not been established.

Background: For patients desiring autologous breast reconstruction without adequate abdominal tissue volume, the deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap may be stacked or combined with other flaps for bilateral reconstruction. Various combinations of anastomoses have been described in the literature. We sought to describe a framework for intraflap anastomoses.

The procedure is often performed by surgeons different from those performing the amputation, creating scheduling dilemmas. The purpose of this study was to analyze historic trends in lower extremity amputation scheduling in a single hospital system to evaluate if offering routine immediate targeted muscle reinnervation is practical.
