TL;DR: In an analysis of data from a large prospective study of patients with hepatitis C virus-associated compensated or decompensated cirrhosis, it is found that the SVR to DAA treatment decreased the incidence of HCC over a mean follow-up of 14 months.

TL;DR: In patients with HCV-related cirrhosis who had been successfully treated for early HCC, DAAs significantly improved OS compared with No DAA treatment, and sustained virologic response was a significant predictor of OS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Peg-interferon alone or combined with ribavirin in HCV cirrhosis with portal hypertension: a randomized controlled trial.
Vito Di Marco,Piero Luigi Almasio,Donatella Ferraro,Vincenza Calvaruso,Giuseppe Alaimo,S. Peralta,Rosa Di Stefano,Antonio Craxì +7 more
TL;DR: In HCV cirrhosis with portal hypertension Peg-interferon plus ribavirin is a feasible treatment and tailoring by genotype and early viral response allows to keep patients on treatment who are more likely to have viral eradication.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aging resistance of bio-epoxy jute-basalt hybrid composites as novel multilayer structures for cladding
TL;DR: In this article, the aging resistance of jute reinforced laminates is compared with two jute/basalt hybrid laminate prepared with different stacking sequences (i.e., sandwich and intercalated configuration).
Journal ArticleDOI
Noninvasive assessment of liver fibrosis in thalassaemia major patients by transient elastography (TE) – lack of interference by iron deposition
Vito Di Marco,Fabrizio Bronte,Daniela Cabibi,Vincenza Calvaruso,Giuseppe Alaimo,Zelia Borsellino,Francesco Gagliardotto,Piero Luigi Almasio,Marcello Capra,Antonio Craxì +9 more
TL;DR: Transient elastography is a reliable non‐invasive tool for diagnosing advanced liver fibrosis in homozygous‐β‐thalassaemics, regardless of the degree of iron overload.
