Critical flicker frequency test for diagnosing minimal hepatic encephalopathy in patients with cirrhosis

The Turkish Journal of Gastroenterology, 2017
Background/Aims: The critical flicker frequency (CFF) and psychometric hepatic encephalopathy score (PHES) are commonly proposed tests for detecting minimal hepatic encephalopathy (MHE); however, no studies have examined their value for detecting MHE in ...

Impact of Frailty on the Prognosis of Patients With Liver Cirrhosis Undergoing Insertion of a TIPS

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 63, Issue 1, Page 109-118, January 2026.
In patients with cirrhosis undergoing TIPS, frailty—measured by the Liver Frailty Index—improved in those with poor baseline status; therefore, high frailty should not be seen as a contraindication to elective TIPS. Additionally, LFI assessment before TIPS enables identification of patients with excellent survival prognosis.

Rifaximin Plus Probiotics Reshape Gut Microbiota, Serum Propionate, and Mucosal Immunity in Cirrhosis‐Related Hepatic Encephalopathy Microbiota‐Immune Remodeling in HE

Canadian Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) remains a major cause of hospitalization and readmission in cirrhosis and is closely linked to hyperammonemia, microbial dysbiosis, impaired short‐chain fatty acid (SCFA) output, barrier dysfunction, and altered mucosal immunity.

Relationship between Sarcopenia and minimal hepatic encephalopathy in patients with cirrhosis: a prospective observational study

BMC Gastroenterology
Background Sarcopenia, characterized by loss of muscle mass and function, has gained importance in the evaluation of cirrhotic patients. Evidence suggests its role in adverse clinical outcomes, including minimal hepatic encephalopathy (MHE).

Evidence of Impaired Neuroimmune System in Post‐COVID Syndrome—A Whole Brain Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Study

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 97, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Chronic fatigue, mood disturbances, and cognitive deficits characterize the neurological post‐COVID syndrome (PCS). This study aimed to find out if PCS shows a diagnostic brain metabolic pattern that might also support clarification of the PCS pathology.

Psychometric hepatic encephalopathy score for diagnosis of minimal hepatic encephalopathy in cirrhosis of liver

BACKGROUND: • Minimal hepatic encephalopathy (MHE) is a subclinical condition in liver cirrhosis patients, often preceding overt hepatic encephalopathy (OHE). • MHE impairs driving ability and quality of life but requires specialized neuropsychological tests (e.g., PHES) for diagnosis, as routine exams are insufficient.
