CpG Island Methylation Patterns in Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis
(2018)DNA methylation may predispose to multiple sclerosis (MS), as aberrant methylation in the promoter regions across the genome seems to underlie several processes of MS. We have currently determined the methylation status ... -
Daring-B: Discontinuation of effective entecavir or tenofovir disoproxil fumarate long-term therapy before HBsAg loss in non-cirrhotic HBeAg-negative chronic hepatitis B
(2018)Background: The remission rates after stopping antivirals in hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg)-negative chronic hepatitis B (CHB) vary among studies, while reliable predictors of relapse have not been identified. This prospective ... -
Early primary biliary cirrhosis: A new association with erythema nodosum of unknown origin
(2010)Primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) is associated with immune-mediated dermatologic disorders. The association of PBC with erythema nodosum (EN) seems rare. We report two females (42 and 44 years old) with low-grade fever, ... -

The efficacy of Natalizumab versus Fingolimod for patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis: A systematic review, indirect evidence from randomized placebo-controlled trials and meta-analysis of observational head-to-head trials
(2016)Background: Although Fingolimod (FGD) and Natalizumab (NTZ) appear to be effective in relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS), they have never been directly compared in a randomized clinical trial (RCT). Methods and ... -
Endoscopic sinus surgery outcomes in CRS: quality of life and correlations with NOSE scale in a prospective cohort study
(2021)Background: To evaluate the impact of endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) on clinical outcomes, quality of life (QoL) and Nasal Obstruction and Symptom Evaluation (NOSE) scale in patients with CRSwNP and CRSsNP. An additional ... -
Guidelines for the Management of Wet Age-Related Macular Degeneration: Recommendations from a Panel of Greek Experts
(2016)Purpose: To propose guidelines for the management of patients with wet age-related macular degeneration (wAMD), taking into account the results of large multicenter studies and clinical experience of retina experts. Method: ... -
Long-Term Effectiveness of Natalizumab in Patients with Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis Treated in the Routine Care in Greece: Results from the Multicenter, Observational 5-Year Prospective Study ‘TOPICS Greece’
(2021)Background and Objectives: For chronic diseases like multiple sclerosis (MS), real-world evidence on long-term treatment outcomes is essential. The study aimed to provide long-term data on the safety and effectiveness of ... -
Mycophenolate for the treatment of autoimmune hepatitis: Prospective assessment of its efficacy and safety for induction and maintenance of remission in a large cohort of treatment-naïve patients
(2011)Background & Aims: Standard therapy for autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is corticosteroids with or without azathioprine. However, 20% of patients do not respond or are intolerant to conventional treatment. Therefore, we evaluated ... -
Outcome of refractory to conventional and/or biologic treatment adult Still's disease following canakinumab treatment: Countrywide data in 50 patients
(2021)Objective: To assess the efficacy and safety of the IL-1b inhibitor canakinumab in all adults with refractory Still's disease identified from the National Organization For Medicines for off-label drug use. Methods -
Patients with haemoglobinopathies and chronic hepatitis C: A real difficult to treat population in 2016?
(2017)Background & objectives: In the past, patients with haemoglobinopathies were at high risk of acquiring hepatitis C virus (HCV) due to multiple transfusions before HCV screening. In these patients, the coexistence of ... -
Predictors of hepatitis B surface antigen loss, relapse and retreatment after discontinuation of effective oral antiviral therapy in noncirrhotic HBeAg-negative chronic hepatitis B
(2020)Reliable predictors of outcomes after treatment discontinuation in HBeAg-negative chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients have not been established. We investigated the role of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), interferon-inducible ... -
