[Psychometric hepatic encephalopathy score normalization data for the Portuguese population].

Acta medica portuguesa, 2012
The Minimal Hepatic Encephalopathy (MHE) has been associated to changes in life quality and in the aptitude to drive vehicles, to the appearance of an explicit form of Hepatic Encephalopathy and to a worst prognosis, including a high mortality risk. In this context, the early detection of this condition will lead to the reduction of its consequences ...

Whole brain atlas-based diffusion kurtosis imaging parameters for evaluation of minimal hepatic encephalopathy

, 2022
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSES: Minimal hepatic encephalopathy (MHE) has no recognizable clinical symptoms, but patients have cognitive and psychomotor deficits. Hyperammonemia along with neuroinflammation lead to microstructural changes in cerebral parenchyma.
