Journal ArticleDOI

Giannini,Giulia Negrini,Francesca Ciccarese,Gian Lodovico Rapaccini,Maria Di Marco,Eugenio Caturelli,Marco Zoli,Franco Borzio,Rodolfo Sacco,Roberto Virdone,Fabio Marra,Andrea Mega,Filomena Morisco,Luisa Benvegnù,Antonio Gasbarrini,Gianluca Svegliati-Baroni,Francesco Giuseppe Foschi,Andrea Olivani,Alberto Masotto,Gerardo Nardone,Antonio Colecchia,Marcello Persico,Antonio Craxì,Franco Trevisani,Calogero Cammà +30 more
TL;DR: This study indirectly suggests that direct-acting antiviral agents could improve overall survival of HCC patients through long-term preservation of liver function, resulting in a lower cirrhosis-related mortality and a greater change of receiving curative treatments.
Thyroid function tests inchronic liver disease: evidence formultiple abnormalities despite clinical euthyroidism
TL;DR: The present data confirm the existence of several abnormalities of thyroid function tests in patients with chronic liver disease, although showing that euthyroidism is almost always maintained, probably as a result of low-normal FT3 and high- normal FT4.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Evaluating the changing scenario of aetiology, presentation, management and prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma in Italy during the last 15 years is evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence and Prognostic Significance of the Presence of Esophageal Varices in Patients With Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Edoardo G. Giannini,Domenico Risso,Roberto Testa,Franco Trevisani,Maria Anna Di Nolfo,Paolo Poggio,Luisa Benvegnù,Gian Ludovico Rapaccini,Fabio Farinati,Marco Zoli,Franco Borzio,Eugenio Caturelli +11 more
TL;DR: The presence of esophageal varices is associated with a higher risk of death from bleeding, and is an independent determinant of the patient's prognosis, which is taken into account in the diagnostic and therapeutic work-up of HCC patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In HCV‐infected cirrhotic patients with successfully treated early hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the time to HCC recurrence and the effects of sustained viral eradication (SVR) by interferon (IFN)‐based or IFN‐free regimens on H CC recurrence remain unclear.
