Journal ArticleDOI
Bifidobacterium longum with Fructo-Oligosaccharides in Patients with Non Alcoholic Steatohepatitis
Michele Malaguarnera,Marco Vacante,Tijana Antic,Maria Giordano,Giuseppe Chisari,Rosaria Acquaviva,Silvana Mastrojeni,Giulia Malaguarnera,Antonio Mistretta,Giovanni Li Volti,Fabio Galvano +10 more
TL;DR: Bifidobacterium longum with Fos and lifestyle modification, when compared to lifestyle modification alone, significantly reduces TNF-α, CRP, serum AST levels, HOMA-IR, serum endotoxin, steatosis, and the NASH activity index.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hepatic echinococcosis: Clinical and therapeutic aspects
Giuseppe Nunnari,Marilia Rita Pinzone,Salvatore Gruttadauria,Benedetto Maurizio Celesia,Giordano Madeddu,Giulia Malaguarnera,Piero Pavone,Alessandro Cappellani,Bruno Cacopardo +8 more
TL;DR: The improvement of surgical techniques, the introduction of minimally invasive treatments and more effective drugs have deeply changed life expectancy and quality of life of patients with HD.
Journal ArticleDOI
Serum markers of hepatocellular carcinoma.
Giulia Malaguarnera,Maria Giordano,Isabella Paladina,Massimiliano Berretta,Massimiliano Berretta,Alessandro Cappellani,Mariano Malaguarnera +6 more
TL;DR: Despite the large number of studies devoted to the immunohistochemistry of HCC, the absolute positive and negative markers for HCC are still lacking, and even those characterized by very high sensitivity and specificity do not have an universal diagnostic usefulness.
Journal ArticleDOI
Potential role of probiotics on colorectal cancer prevention
Mario Uccello,Giulia Malaguarnera,Francesco Basile,Velia D'Agata,Michele Malaguarnera,Gaetano Bertino,Marco Vacante,Filippo Drago,Antonio Biondi +8 more
TL;DR: Several mechanisms could explain the preventive action of probiotics against colorectal cancer onset: alteration of the intestinal microflora; inactivation of cancerogenic compounds; competition with putrefactive and pathogenic microbiota; improvement of the host’s immune response; and inhibition of tyrosine kinase signaling pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neurotoxicity of acrylamide in exposed workers.
Manuela Pennisi,Giulia Malaguarnera,Valentina Puglisi,Luisa Vinciguerra,Marco Vacante,Mariano Malaguarnera +5 more
TL;DR: This paper has analyzed not only the different pathogenetic hypotheses focusing on possible neuropathological targets, but also the critical behavior of ACR poisoning, and evaluated the ACR-exposed workers case studies.
