Journal ArticleDOI

Increased intestinal permeability and tight junction alterations in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.

TL;DR: In patients with NAFLD, both gut permeability and the prevalence of SIBO correlated with the severity of steatosis but not with presence of NASH, and the increased permeability appears to be caused by disruption of intercellular tight junctions in the intestine.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diagnostic accuracy of passive leg raising for prediction of fluid responsiveness in adults: systematic review and meta-analysis of clinical studies

TL;DR: Passive leg raising-induced changes in cardiac output can reliably predict fluid responsiveness regardless of ventilation mode and cardiac rhythm, and PLR-cCO has a significantly higher predictive value than PLP-cPP.
Journal ArticleDOI

Behavioural Addictions in Adolescents and Young Adults: Results from a Prevalence Study

TL;DR: The strong correlation among different addictive behaviours is in line with the hypothesis of a common psychopathological dimension underlying these phenomena, and further studies are needed to assess personality traits and other clinical disorders associated with these problems behaviours.
Journal ArticleDOI

The extent of microvascular damage during myocardial contrast echocardiography is superior to other known indexes of post-infarct reperfusion in predicting left ventricular remodeling: results of the multicenter AMICI study

TL;DR: Among patients with TIMI flow grade 3, the extent of microvascular damage, detected and quantitated by MCE, is the most powerful independent predictor of LV remodeling after STEMI as compared with persistent ST-segment elevation and myocardial blush grade.
