Evaluation of IL‐6 for Stepwise Diagnosis of Minimal Hepatic Encephalopathy in Patients With Liver Cirrhosis [PDF]

Hepatology Communications, 2022
Diagnosis of minimal hepatic encephalopathy (MHE) requires psychometric testing, which is time‐consuming and often neglected in clinical practice. Elevated Interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) serum levels have been linked to MHE.

Plasma Ammonia Levels Predict Hepatic Encephalopathy After Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt Placement. [PDF]

United European Gastroenterol J
ABSTRACT Background Placement of a transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) is an effective treatment for portal hypertension. Overt hepatic encephalopathy (oHE) is a complication after TIPS associated with increased morbidity. Elevated ratio of plasma ammonia (AMM) levels compared to the local upper limit of normal (ULN) has been ...

Neurofilament Light Chains in Serum Predict Post-Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt Hepatic Encephalopathy. [PDF]

MedComm (2020)
Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) insertion constitutes a frequent and severe complication, however, biomarkers are currently scarce. The results of this study indicate that neurofilament light chains (NfL) in serum, but not glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), is a useful biomarker identifying ...
