Diabetes Mellitus is a Risk Factor for Hepatic Encephalopathy Following Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Diabetes mellitus independently increases the risk of hepatic encephalopathy following TIPS placement in patients with cirrhosis. These findings emphasize the need for careful risk assessment in patients with cirrhosis and portal hypertension complications undergoing TIPS.

Post‐Banding Ulcer Bleeding After Endoscopic Ligation: Incidence, Risk Factors and Outcomes in Patients With Cirrhosis

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
A PBUB is a rare but often fatal complication of endoscopic variceal band ligation. The relevant risk factors contributing to PBUB are unknown and consequently there are no effective preemptive strategies. This study highlights kidney disease as a predictor of PBUB together with the well‐established higher risk for urgent band ligation.

Animal Naming Test Can Identify Covert Hepatic Encephalopathy in Patients With Cirrhosis With Limited Influence From Age or Educational Level

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
Adjustments for age and educational level in animal naming test cause patients’ discomfort and limit its use in clinical practice. In our study, animal naming test was useful in identifying covert hepatic encephalopathy and its adjustment using age and educational level had limited incremental value the diagnostic ability.
