Thrombotic risk factors in patients with liver cirrhosis: Correlation with MELD scoring system and portal vein thrombosis development
Maria Assunta Zocco,Enrico Di Stasio,Raimondo De Cristofaro,Marialuisa Novi,Maria Elena Ainora,Francesca Romana Ponziani,Laura Riccardi,Stefano Lancellotti,Angelo Santoliquido,Roberto Flore,Maurizio Pompili,Gian Ludovico Rapaccini,Paolo Tondi,Giovanni Gasbarrini,Raffaele Landolfi,Antonio Gasbarrini +15 more
TL;DR: Lower concentrations of natural coagulation inhibitors are frequently detected in patients with liver cirrhosis and a reduced portal flow velocity seems to be the most important predictive variable for PVT development in patientsWith cirrhotic patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is suggested that in patients with cirrhosis and NAFLD the gut microbiota profile and systemic inflammation are significantly correlated and can concur in the process of hepatocarcinogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Francesca Romana Ponziani,Maria Assunta Zocco,C. Campanale,Emanuele Rinninella,Annalisa Tortora,Luca Di Maurizio,G. Bombardieri,Raimondo De Cristofaro,Anna Maria De Gaetano,Raffaele Landolfi,Antonio Gasbarrini +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed the physiopathological mechanisms of portal vein thrombosis, together with the hemodynamic and functional alterations related to this condition, and described the principal factors most frequently involved in PVT development and the recent knowledge concerning diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gut Microbiota during Dietary Restrictions: New Insights in Non-Communicable Diseases
Emanuele Rinninella,Marco Cintoni,Pauline Raoul,Gianluca Ianiro,Lucrezia Laterza,Loris Riccardo Lopetuso,Francesca Romana Ponziani,Antonio Gasbarrini,Maria Cristina Mele +8 more
TL;DR: An overview of animal and human studies focusing on gut microbiota variations during different types of dietary restriction is provided in order to highlight the close relationship between gut microbiota balance and the host’s health benefits induced by these nutritional regimens.
Journal ArticleDOI
Eubiotic properties of rifaximin: Disruption of the traditional concepts in gut microbiota modulation
Francesca Romana Ponziani,Maria Assunta Zocco,Francesca D'Aversa,Maurizio Pompili,Antonio Gasbarrini +4 more
TL;DR: An increase in Bifidobacterium, Faecalibacterium prausnitzii and Lactobacillus abundance after rifaximin treatment is demonstrated, probably consequent to the induction of bacterial resistance, with no major change in the overall gut microbiota composition.
