Microbiota and Bone Fragility:Study of the Relation Between Gut Microbiota and Bone Microarchitecture
Gut microbiota regulate metabolism of their human host. Some diseases are associated with variations in gut microbiota diversity and higher fracture risk. Intestinal bacteria synthesize or influence synthesis of factors modulating bone metabolism. The link between gut microbiota and bone was assessed mainly in experimental animal studies. Clinical data, e.g. …

Combining Biomarkers (AFP AFP-L3 and PIVKA-II) and Image Tools for Early Detection of Hepatocellular Carcinoma
In this study, three biomarkers tests (AFP, AFP-L3 and PIVKA-II) and abdominal sonography or CT scans are performed every 6 months to detect hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) early in patients with cirrhosis, a high-risk group of HCC. The aim of this study is to confirm the early HCC diagnosis rate in …

Comparison of Diuretic Effect With Furosemide Alone Versus the Combination of Furosemide and Albumin in Cirrhotic Patients
A common complication of the progression of cirrhosis is fluid retention (ascites, edema, or pleural effusion). Loop diuretics are the treatment of choice for fluid retention in cirrhotic patients; however, many of these patients demonstrate diuretic resistance, requiring higher doses of the diuretics to achieve adequate diuresis.

HCC Surveillance: Comparison of Abbreviated Non-contrast MRI and Ultrasound Surveillance in Cirrhotic Patients With Suboptimal Ultrasound Visualisation
All international guidelines recommend 6-monthly ultrasound surveillance for patients at risk for liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma or HCC), such as patients with cirrhosis. The aim of surveillance is to detect HCC at an early stage when it is still potentially curable. Currently only 4 out of 10 HCCs are detected …
