CLDs will certainly decrease significantly while the proportion of NASH will
increase...

Neuropsychological assessment of hepatic encephalopathy: ISHEN practice guidelines
Tập 29 Số 5 - Trang 629-635 - 2009
AbstractLow‐grade or minimal hepatic encephalopathy (MHE) is characterised by
relatively mild neurocognitive impairments, and occurs in a substantial
percentage of patients with liver disease. The presence of MHE is associated
with a significant compromise of quality of life, is predictive of the onset of
overt hepatic encephalopathy and is associated with a poorer prognosis for
outcome. Early ide...
