(2-Heremans-schmid glycoprotein (fetuin A) downregulation and its utility in inflammatory bowel disease
(2017)AIM: To investigate the impact of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) on α2-Heremans-Schmid Glycoprotein (AHSG/fetuin A) and potential associations with disease and patient characteristics. METHODS: AHSG serum levels were ... -
Acute non-A, non-B, non-C hepatitis differences and similarities between hepatitis E virus infection and autoimmune hepatitis, with phylogenetic analysis of hepatitis E virus in humans and wild boars
(2022)Background Hepatitis E virus (HEV) infection incidence is increasing in Europe, accounting for the majority of acute hepatitis cases. We investigated the prevalence and clinical characteristics of acute hepatitis E (AHE) ... -
Alcoholic liver disease and autoimmune hepatitis: Sometimes a closer look under the surface is needed
(2021)Aims: Differential diagnosis of autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) incorporates various liver diseases, including alcoholic liver disease (ALD). We report on clinical, laboratory and outcome characteristics of AIH patients who ... -
Altered DNA methylation pattern characterizes the peripheral immune cells of patients with autoimmune hepatitis
(2022)Background and Aims: Little is known about the impact of DNA methylation modifications on autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) pathogenesis and therapeutic response. We investigated the potential alterations of DNA methylation in ... -
Antibody tests in detecting SARS-CoV-2 infection: A meta-analysis
(2020)The emergence of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by SARS-CoV-2 made imperative the need for diagnostic tests that can identify the infection. Although Nucleic Acid Test (NAT) is considered to be the gold standard, ... -
Association between Helicobacter pylori infection and Guillain-Barré Syndrome: A meta-analysis
(2020)Background: Helicobacter pylori (H pylori) is a Gram-negative bacterium, considered to trigger autoimmune gastrointestinal disorders. This pathogen has also been linked to the autoimmune sequelae in extra-gastrointestinal ... -
Association of melatonin administration in pregnant ewes with growth, redox status and immunity of their offspring
(2021)In this study, the effects of melatonin treatment on growth, redox status and immunity in prenatally stressed newborn lambs were evaluated. Thirty-seven newborn lambs were allocated into two groups (melatonin-MEL and ... -
Autoantibodies against specific nuclear antigens are present in psoriatic disease and are diminished by secukinumab
(2020)Anti-nuclear antibodies (ANA) are frequently detected in patients with psoriasis (Ps) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA), but their target autoantigens remain unknown. We assessed antibody (ab) reactivity against 23 known nuclear ... -
Autoimmune hepatitis in patients with multiple sclerosis: The role of immunomodulatory treatment
(2019)Background: Development of autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) has been sporadically reported in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) either concurrently or after treatment with immunomodulatory drugs, including interferon-beta ... -
BAFF receptor polymorphisms and deficiency in humans
(2021)The BAFF-receptor (BAFFR) is a member of the TNF-receptor family. It is expressed only by B cells and binds BAFF as single ligand, which activates key signaling pathways regulating essential cellular functions, including ... -
Bayesian latent class models to estimate diagnostic test accuracies of COVID-19 tests
(2021)[No abstract available] -
Belimumab is a promising third-line treatment option for refractory autoimmune hepatitis
(2020)Background & Aims: Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a disease of unknown aetiology with a favourable response to immunosuppression. However, in the clinic, it appears that <50% of patients achieve complete response on standard ... -
Black holes and high levels of neurofilaments in glial fibrillary acidic protein – astrocytopathy: a case report
(2020)Background and purpose: Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) is an intracellular protein of the astrocytic cytoskeleton. Recently, autoantibodies to GFAP detected by cell-based assay in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) or serum ... -
A case of membranous nephropathy associated with Sjögren syndrome, polymyositis and autoimmune hepatitis
(2008)Sjögren syndrome (SS) is a chronic systemic autoimmune disease characterized by lymphocytic infiltration of exocrine glands, especially lacrimal and salivary. The immunologic process which occurs in this syndrome is B cell ... -
A comprehensive analysis of antigen-specific antibody responses against human cytomegalovirus in patients with systemic sclerosis
(2019)Anti-human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) antibodies are considered triggers of systemic sclerosis (SSc), but such a hypothesis has been assessed in limited sub-dominant epitopes. Our aim was to systematically assess the potential ... -
A comprehensive analysis of antigen-specific autoimmune liver disease related autoantibodies in patients with multiple sclerosis
(2020)Introduction: Abnormal liver function tests are frequently seen in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and their origin at times is attributed to the possible co-occurrence or the de novo induction of autoimmune liver ... -

(2021)We describe response measures to an outbreak involving 128 (33.4%) coronavirus disease cases (46.1% asymptomatic) among 383 persons onboard a passenger ship. Multivariate analysis indicated that dining in certain rooms and ... -
The current evidence regarding covid‐19 and pregnancy: Where are we now and where should we head to next?
(2021)Despite the volume of publications dedicated to unraveling the biological characteristics and clinical manifestations of SARS‐CoV‐2, available data on pregnant patients are limited. In the current review of literature, we ... -
