PD-1 inhibitors have shown unconventional response patterns in classic Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL). These include the phenomenon of pseudoprogression, highlighting the need for specialized response criteria such as the LyRIC, which stringened definitions for disease progression with introduction of indeterminate response category. Despite their potential utility, these provisional criteria are currently underutilized and require further refinement through clinical practice data collection.

Here we investigate whether the numerous weak signals emanating from these dinucleotide arrangements can be used for computational identification of UCNEs within the human genome. For this purpose, we analyzed 4272 UCNE sequences, encompassing 1 393 448 nucleotides, alongside equally sized control samples of randomly selected human genomic sequences.

This paper presents the results of a study on how carbon-based nanoparticles influence on the basic properties of a well-known PVA-based polymer matrix, using which it is possible to obtain good transparency for parallel light components. An accent is made on graphene oxide nanoparticles, which are used as PVA sensitizers.
