Detecting minimal hepatic encephalopathy in an endemic country for hepatitis B: the role of psychometrics and serum IL-6. [PDF]
It remains unknown what the prevalence of minimal hepatic encephalopathy is in Taiwan, a highly endemic country for chronic viral hepatitis infection. It is also unclear whether abnormal serum cytokine levels can be indicative of the presence of minimal ...

Paired associative stimulation demonstrates alterations in motor cortical synaptic plasticity in patients with hepatic encephalopathy [PDF]
Objective: Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is a potentially reversible brain dysfunction caused by liver failure. Altered synaptic plasticity is supposed to play a major role in the pathophysiology of HE. Here, we used paired associative stimulation with an inter-stimulus interval of 25 ms (PAS25), a transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) protocol, to ...

Current Management of Hepatic Encephalopathy: A Review Article [PDF]
Hepatic encephalopathy, a neuropsychiatric syndrome stemming from liver failure, manifests in acute and chronic cases. The prevailing cause behind its development involves the neurotoxicity resulting from elevated ammonia levels in the brain, which can ...

PET CMR$_{glc}$ mapping and $^{1}$H MRS show altered glucose uptake and neurometabolic profiles in BDL rats [PDF]
Type C hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is a complex neuropsychiatric disorder occurring as a consequence of chronic liver disease. Alterations in energy metabolism have been suggested in type C HE, but $\textit{in vivo}$ studies on this matter remain sparse and have reported conflicting results.

Older patients with COVID‐19 and neuropsychiatric conditions: A study of risk factors for mortality
Abstract Background Little is known about risk factors for mortality in older patients with COVID‐19 and neuropsychiatric conditions. Methods We conducted a multicentric retrospective observational study at Assistance Publique‐Hôpitaux de Paris. We selected inpatients aged 70 years or older, with COVID‐19 and preexisting neuropsychiatric comorbidities

Abstract Background Antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) have complex molecular structures and have been tested in numerous clinical trials. Therefore, understanding the mechanisms of their toxicity when applied in medical practice is of high importance. Methods In a systematic review and meta‐analysis of data gathered from different scientific databases ...
