The application of the extended Poincaré plot in the analysis of physiological variabilities

Satti R, Abid N, Bottaro M, De Rui M, Garrido M, Rauofy MR, Montagnese S, Mani AR Frontiers in Physiology The Poincaré plot is a geometrical technique used to visualize and quantify the correlation between two consecutive data points in a time-series. Since the dynamics of fluctuations in physiological rhythms exhibit long-term correlation and memory, […]

Clinical value of asterixis in 374 well-characterised patients with cirrhosis and varying degree of hepatic encephalopathy

Formentin C, Zarantonello L, Mangini C, Angeli P, Merkel C, Montagnese S Digestive and Liver Disease Current guidelines for the diagnosis of hepatic encephalopathy (HE) include the clinical sign asterixis, which defines grade II overt HE in the absence of disorientation to time [ 1 ]. Asterixis has also been used as an outcome in clinical trials […]

Blood metabolomics undercovers inflammation-associated mitochondrial dysfunction as a potentian mechanism underlying ACLF

Moreau R, Clària J, Aguilar F, Fenaille F, Lozano JJ, Junot c, Colsch B, Caraceni P, Trebicka J, Pavesi M, Alessandria C, Nevens F, Saliba F, Welzel TM, Albillos A, Gustot T, Fernández J, Moreno C, Baldassarre M, Zaccherini G, Piano S, Montagnese S, Vargas V, Genescà J, Solà E, Bernal W, Butin H, Hautbergue […]

A meta-analysis of magnetic resonance spectroscopy in the diagnosis of hepatic encephalopathy

Zeng G, Penninkilampi R, Chaganti J, Montagnese S, Brew BJ, Danta M Neurology Objective Various imaging modalities have been used to explore pathogenic mechanisms and stratify the severity of hepatic encephalopathy (HE). The hypothesis of this meta-analysis was that there is a progressive identifiable derangement of imaging measures using magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) related to the […]
