Journal ArticleDOI

Francesca Maffei,Juan Manuel Zolezzi Moraga,Sabrina Angelini,Corrado Zenesini,Muriel Assunta Musti,Davide Festi,Giorgio Cantelli-Forti,Patrizia Hrelia +7 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that the MN test can become a promising biomarker for the early detection of CRC.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dissolution of Gallbladder Stones with Methyl tert-Butyl Ether and Stone Recurrence (A European Survey)
A. Hellstern,Ulrich Leuschner,A Benjaminov,H Ackermann,T Heine,Davide Festi,M. Orsini,Enrico Roda,T C Northfield,R Jazrawi,W. Kurtz,H J Schmeck-Lindenau,J Stumpf,B E Eidsvoll,E Aadland,G Lux,E Boehnke,D Wurbs,M Delhaye,M Cremer,I Sinn,E Höring,U v Gaisberg,M Neubrand,F Paul +24 more
TL;DR: The probability of stone recurrence in patients with sludge in the gallbladder after catheter removal was not statistically significantlydifferent from those without sludge, and contact litholysis when applied by an experienced team provides real advantages in the treatment of gallstone disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ten-year incidence of HCV infection in northern Italy and frequency of spontaneous viral clearance
Costanza Mazzeo,Francesco Azzaroli,Silvia Giovanelli,Ada Dormi,Davide Festi,Antonio Colecchia,A. Miracolo,Pasquale Natale,G. Nigro,Alfredo Alberti,Enrico Roda,Giuseppe Mazzella +11 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that as many as 17% of infected subjects may spontaneously clear HCV-Ab, and interfamilial transmission seems to have a role in the spread of infection in rural northern Italy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ursodeoxycholic acid administration on bile acid metabolism in patients with early stages of primary biliary cirrhosis.
Giuseppe Mazzella,Paolo Parini,Franco Bazzoli,Nicola Villanova,Davide Festi,Rita Aldini,Aldo Roda,A Cipolla,C Polimeni,Domenica Tonelli +9 more
TL;DR: In patients with primary biliary cirrhosis, ursodeoxycholic acid administration replaces endogenous bile acids in the enterophepatic circulation by increasing bile acid fractional turnover rate without significant increments of their hepatic synthesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Usefulness of liver stiffness measurement in predicting hepatic veno-occlusive disease development in patients who undergo HSCT
Antonio Colecchia,Giovanni Marasco,Federico Ravaioli,Katharina Kleinschmidt,Riccardo Masetti,Arcangelo Prete,Andrea Pession,Davide Festi +7 more
TL;DR: Hepatic veno-occlusive disease (VOD), or sinusoidal obstructive syndrome (SOS), is a clinical syndrome characterized by hepatomegaly, ascites, weight gain and jaundice, which can develop more frequently in the first 30 days after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).
