Breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL), an uncommon malignancy, was linked to textured breast implants by moderate evidence in 2021. Documenting Romanian cases provides valuable insights into the epidemiology, management, and outcomes, thereby, enhancing global understanding and informing clinical practices. Our objective was to analyze BIA-ALCL cases in Romania, focusing on patient demographics, implant characteristics, clinical presentation, diagnostic methods, treatment, and outcomes.

Wounds in diabetic patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) may be poorly responsive to revascularization and conventional therapies. : This study's objective is to analyze the results of regenerative cell therapy with peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMNCs) as an adjuvant to revascularization. This study is based on 168 patients treated with endovascular revascularization below the knee plus three PBMNC implants.

Bacteria must synthesize their cell wall and membrane during their cell cycle, with peptidoglycan being the primary component of the cell wall in most bacteria. Peptidoglycan is a three-dimensional polymer that enables bacteria to resist cytoplasmic osmotic pressure, maintain their cell shape and protect themselves from environmental threats. Numerous antibiotics that are currently used target enzymes involved in the synthesis of the cell wall, particularly peptidoglycan synthases.

Research on the use of biomass resources for the generation of energy and chemical compounds is of great interest worldwide. The development and growth of the biodiesel industry has led to a parallel market for the supply of glycerol, its main by-product. Its wide availability and relatively low cost as a raw material make glycerol a basic component for obtaining various chemical products and allows for the development of a biorefinery around biodiesel plants, through the technological integration of different production processes.
