caused by liver insufficiency and/or portal‐systemic blood shunting, which manifests as a …

Objectives: We aimed to determine whether diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) analysis with
the breath-hold technique can replace liver function results obtained from laboratory tests …

Objective Various imaging modalities have been used to explore pathogenic mechanisms
and stratify the severity of hepatic encephalopathy (HE). The hypothesis of this meta …

The hippocampus is a crucial pathological node for minimal hepatic encephalopathy (MHE)
and it is associated with various cognitive impairments. Investigations on alterations …

Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is a neuropsychiatric disturbance affecting patients with acute
liver failure (ALF), cirrhosis, or non–cirrhotic portosystemic bypass. 1 The clinical spectrum of …

(MHE) with cognitive impairment and raised blood ammonia and proinflammatory cytokines …

Background To investigate the relationships among regional activity abnormalities, clinical
disease severity, and prognosis in cirrhotic patients with overt hepatic encephalopathy …

Cerebral edema is a major complication of acute liver failure but may also be seen in other
forms of liver failure such as acute‐on‐chronic liver failure (ACLF) and chronic liver failure …

Background Diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) quantifies the non‐Gaussian diffusion of water
within tissue microstructure. However, it has increased fitting parameters and requires …
