Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2023 at "Environmental and Molecular Mutagenesis"
DOI: 10.1002/em.22530
Abstract: In March 2020, the Italian government imposed a national lockdown which was almost completely removed in June 2020. Due to the abrupt stop of human activities, emissions of air pollutants decreased. Air pollution is an… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/hep.32676
Abstract: Background: Ascites is a definitive sign of decompensated liver cirrhosis driven by portal hypertension. Although transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt insertion (TIPS) is indicated for therapy of recurrent and refractory ascites, there is no evidence‐based recommendation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10147-018-1285-4
Abstract: BackgroundNeoadjuvant chemotherapy is given to children with unresectable hepatoblastoma to increase the rate and safety of curative complete surgical resection. Elevated levels of serum alpha-fetoprotein (sAFP) decline with tumor shrinkage. In this single-institution retrospective study,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10620-017-4487-0
Abstract: IntroductionThe etiologies of functional dyspepsia symptoms, including postprandial distress syndrome, remain unknown. We tested the hypothesis that neonatal colon inflammation induces postprandial distress syndrome-like symptoms in adult life that associate with increased activation of vagal… read more here.
