Achievement of Target Gain Larger than Unity in an Inertial Fusion Experiment.
Phys Rev Lett
February 2024
Article Synopsis
- * This experiment produced 2.05 MJ of laser energy, resulting in 3.1 MJ of total fusion yield, which exceeds the Lawson criterion for ignition, demonstrating a key milestone in fusion research.
- * The report details the advancements in target design, laser technology, and experimental methods that contributed to this historic achievement, validating over five decades of research in laboratory fusion.
Background: Despite the existing evidence regarding the interrelated relationship between pain and obesity, knowledge about patients' perspectives of this relationship is scarce, especially from patients with chronic pain and obesity after completing Interdisciplinary Pain Rehabilitation Program (IPRP).
Aims: This qualitative study expands the understanding of patients' perspectives on how chronic pain and obesity influence each other and how the two conditions affect the ability to make lifestyle changes.
Method: A purposive sample of patients with Body Mass Index (BMI) ≥ 30 kg/m and who had completed an IPRP were recruited for individual semi-structured interviews.
Unlabelled: Trauma is a leading cause of death worldwide and in South Africa. We aimed to quantify the in-hospital trauma mortality rate in Pietermaritzburg, South Africa.
Background: The in-hospital trauma mortality rate in South Africa remains unknown, and it is unclear whether deficits in hospital care are contributing to the high level of trauma-related mortality.
The intestinal epithelium has high intrinsic turnover rate, and the precise renewal of the epithelium is dependent on the microenvironment. The intestine is innervated by a dense network of peripheral nerves that controls various aspects of intestinal physiology. However, the role of neurons in regulating epithelial cell regeneration remains largely unknown.

The impact of underlying liver pathology, including liver metastasis, on the incidence of irH remains poorly understood.
Objectives: We hypothesized that the presence of underlying liver pathology increased the risk of irH in patients with cancer treated with ICI.
