Resveratrol in Patients with Minimal Hepatic Encephalopathy
BACKGROUND Minimal Hepatic Encephalopathy (MHE) is characterized by an impairment of social interaction, emotional behavior, sleep disorders, physical and mental symptoms, and diminished Quality of Life (QoL). The aim of our study is evaluating the potential liver health promoting a perspective of Resveratrol (RV) activities and evaluate whether RV treatment may improve health related quality o...
متن کاملFocal cortical damage parallels cognitive impairment in minimal hepatic encephalopathy
Little attention has been paid to cortical integrity in patients with minimal hepatic encephalopathy (MHE), although cognitive functions affected in early stages of liver disease are mainly allocated in different neocortical structures. Here we used cortical surface-based analysis techniques to investigate if patterns of cortical thinning accompany the mildest form of HE. To aim this goal, cort...
متن کاملMinimal hepatic encephalopathy in patients with decompensated liver cirrhosis.
Minimal hepatic encephalopathy (mHE) is characterized by some minimal unspecific alterations of cerebral functions that can only be detected by neuropsychological or neurophysiological diagnostic tests, which dysfunctions nevertheless interfere with the patient's daily living. Early recognition of these impairments may prevent the progression or delay the development of the disease to overt hep...
متن کاملMinimal Hepatic Encephalopathy (MHE)
1. Episodic (precipitant-induced) encephalopathy, commonly seen in the hospital setting, where a superimposed event is a key factor. 2. Persistent (chronic) encephalopathy, seen with extensive portal–systemic shunts and after portocaval shunt surgery or placement of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS). 3. Minimal (subclinical) encephalopathy reflects alterations in cognitive fu...
متن کاملMinimal hepatic encephalopathy.
Minimal hepatic encephalopathy (MHE) is the mildest form of spectrum of hepatic encephalopathy (HE). Patients with MHE have no recognizable clinical symptoms of HE but have mild cognitive and psychomotor deficits. The prevalence of MHE is high in patients with cirrhosis of liver and varies between 30% and 84%; it is higher in patients with poor liver function. The diagnostic criteria for MHE ha...
