Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is a syndrome of neuropsychiatric dysfunction caused by portosystemic venous shunting, with or without intrinsic liver disease. Patients with hepatic encephalopathy often present with the onset of mental status changes ranging from subtle psychologic abnormalities to profound coma.

Medical Clinics of North America, 1989
Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is a complex reversible syndrome that can progress to coma. Recently, behavioral and electrophysiologic ameliorations of HE have been reported to occur in animal models of fulminant hepatic failure (FHF) and, in uncontrolled studies, in a majority of patients with FHF or cirrhosis following the intravenous administration of ...

Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is a neuropsychiatric syndrome which can develop in the course of chronic and acute liver disease. It is characterized by cognitive and motoric deficits of varying severity. HE is functional in nature, potentially reversible and is thought to reflect the clinical manifestation of a low-grade cerebral edema, which exacerbates

Minimal hepatic encephalopathy
Indian Journal of Gastroenterology, 2009Minimal 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 ...

Neurologic Clinics, 2002
Many patients with cirrhosis of the liver who appear to be overtly normal, using standard bedside examination techniques, test in the impaired range on one or more neuropsychological tests. These impairments affect the quality of life. Improvement in affected cognitive domains and the quality of life may follow the institution of treatment.

Neuroimaging in hepatic encephalopathy
Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2005Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is a poorly defined, complex neuropsychological disorder that often accompanies portal hypertension. Although the mechanisms underlining HE and the characterization of HE are still under investigation, the information derived from functional neuroimaging of patients with HE complemented by laboratory investigation and ...

Hepatic encephalopathy for the hospitalist
Journal of Hospital Medicine, 2016The care of patients with advanced liver disease is often complicated by episodes of acute decline in alertness and cognition, termed hepatic encephalopathy (HE). Hospitalists must be familiar with HE, as it is a common reason for hospitalization in this population and is associated with significantly increased mortality.

Minimal Hepatic Encephalopathy
Clinics in Liver Disease, 2020Minimal hepatic encephalopathy, previously called subclinical hepatic encephalopathy, represents the earliest and mildest form of hepatic encephalopathy. It is the most under-recognized and underdiagnosed form of hepatic encephalopathy. Although there is no diagnostic gold standard, validated testing modalities have been devised to detect this ...

Inflammation and hepatic encephalopathy
Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 2013Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is a neuropsychiatric syndrome associated with both acute and chronic liver dysfunction, spanning a spectrum that ranges from mild neuropsychological disturbances to coma. The central role of ammonia in the pathogenesis of HE remains incontrovertible however, there is a robust evidence base indicating the important role of ...

Hepatic encephalopathy and ascites
The Lancet, 1997The first abnormality leading to sodium and water retention in cirrhosis is the renal tubular defect that is related to deteriorating liver function and hyperaldosteronism. With progression of liver disease and portal hypertension, renal blood flow declines because of the hepatorenal reflex, and is then maintained by the vasoactive hormonal systems ...
