Article Synopsis
  • - Advanced diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a serious cancer with a poor outlook, and there's a need for better tools to predict patient survival and response to treatment.
  • - This study analyzed 402 patients to identify key prognostic factors such as Ki-67 levels, LDH, ferritin, and β2-microglobulin, which were used to create a survival prediction nomogram.
  • - The nomogram successfully categorized patients into low, intermediate, and high-risk groups with significantly different 5-year survival rates (81.6%, 44%, and 6%, respectively), demonstrating good accuracy and consistency in predicting outcomes.

A coumarinacyl anilinium () salt, facilely synthesized via a one-pot reaction, is shown to be a versatile visible and NIR photoinitiator for cationic and step-growth polymerizations. salt exhibits superior photoinitiation performance as compared to commercial iodonium salt in cationic polymerization. Upon visible-light irradiation, this salt undergoes hemolytic and heterolytic cleavage and subsequent electron transfer and hydrogen abstraction reactions, forming reactive species capable of initiating cationic polymerization of epoxides and vinyl monomers.

Metabolic reprogramming is a common hallmark of tumor cells and is a crucial mediator of resistance toward anticancer therapies. The pattern of a metabolism-related signature in melanoma remains unknown. Here, we explored the role of a multi-metabolism-related gene signature in melanoma.
