Three tetraaryl-1,4-dihydropyrrolo[3,2-b]pyrrole derivatives containing different number of long alkoxy chains (2, 4 and 6) were synthesized, characterized and applied in Organic Light Emitting Diodes (OLEDs). The compounds showed good emission properties with Photoluminescence Quantum Yields (PLQYs) higher than 80 % in solution and 50 % in solid state (thin film). The solvatochromism results revealed a pronounced vibronic emission in methylcyclohexane and toluene, characterized by two distinct sharp emission peaks and a small redshift in the following order: methylcyclohexane>toluene>dichloromethane>tetrahydrofuran>acetonitrile.

- Cap-assisted endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR-c) shows promise as a salvage option after standard wide-field EMR (WF-EMR) fails in removing large colorectal laterally spreading tumors (LSTs).
- Data from a study revealed that EMR-c achieved a 94.4% complete resection rate following WF-EMR failure, without significant differences in resection quality compared to the initial technique.
- However, EMR-c was associated with higher recurrence and complication rates, indicating a need for careful patient selection and skilled endoscopic intervention.
Liquid biopsy is mainly used to identify tumor cells in pulmonary neoplasms. It is more often used in research than in clinical practice. The BL-MOL-AR study aims to investigate the efficacy of next-generation sequencing (NGS) and clinical interpretation of the circulating free DNA (cfDNA) levels.
