Zhang H, Oyelade T, Moore KP, Montagnese S, Mani AR Front Netw Physiol Background: Liver cirrhosis involves multiple organ systems and has a high mortality. A network approach to complex diseases often reveals the collective system behaviours and intrinsic interactions between organ systems. However, mapping the functional connectivity for each individual patient has been challenging due […]
Costa R, Mangini C, Domenie E, Zarantonello L, Montagnese S Liver Int This narrative review briefly describes the mammalian circadian timing system, the specific features of the liver clock, also by comparison with other peripheral clocks, the role of the liver clock in the preparation to food intake, and its relationship with energy metabolism. It […]
Granados-Fuentes D, Cho K, Patti GJ, Costa R, Herzog E D, Montagnese S Liver Int Patients with cirrhosis exhibit features of circadian disruption. Hyperammonaemia has been suggested to impair both homeostatic and circadian sleep regulation. Here, we tested if hyperammonaemia directly disrupts circadian rhythm generation in the central pacemaker, the suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) of the […]

Mangini C, Zarantonello L, Formentin C, Giusti G, Angeli P, Montagnese S Digestive and Liver Disease Objectives Few data on hepatic encephalopathy (HE) over time are available, thus our aim was to study its evolution in patients with varying degree of HE on first assessment. Methods Eighty-six patients with cirrhosis (age = 58 ± 11 […]
Mangini C, Montagnese S J Clin Med Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is a common complication of advanced liver disease which has profound implications in terms of the patients’ ability to fulfil their family and social roles, to drive and to provide for themselves. Recurrent and persistent HE is still a serious management challenge, translating into a […]
Ponziani FR, Aghemo A, Cabibbo G, Masarone M, Montagnese S, Petta S, Russo FP, Lai Q; AISF COVID-19 survey group Liver International Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic has severely limited the clinical activity of most hospitals around the world. A previous survey of the Italian Association for the Study of the Liver (AISF) […]
Garcia-Pagan JC, Francoz C, Montagnese S, Senzolo M, Mookerjee RP Journal of Hepatology Along with a growing understanding of the pathophysiology of cirrhosis and its complications, new therapies and management strategies have emerged in recent years. Many of these advances have helped inform the current EASL clinical practice guidelines1 on the management of some of […]
