Hepatic Encephalopathy and Albumin Lasting Cognitive Improvement
Hypothesis: Improvement in cognitive dysfunction with IV albumin in patients with cirrhosis with prior HE and MHE lasts for several weeks after albumin infusion has ended, and is due to persistent improvement in inflammatory markers, endothelial dysfunction, albumin function and gut microbial changes. This will be a single-arm, single-blind sequential …
Deprescribing Proton Pump Inhibitors to Reduce Post-TIPS Hepatic Encephalopathy
A total of 40 patients taking proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) who undergo transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) creation as part of routine clinical care will be randomized in 1:1 fashion to either continue or discontinue their PPIs to determine whether these commonly used gastric acid suppressing agents increase risk of …
Hepatic Encephalopathy Prevention With Polydextrose After TIPS: Pilot Study (POEME)
TIPS is a standard for the treatment of portal hypertension related complications. However, it remains at risk of HE after TIPS (around 40% the first year). Dysbiosis plays a key role in pathophysiology of HE. Polydextrose (PDX) is consider as a prebiotic. Preliminary studies showed that PDX: modified gut microbiota, …
Fecal Microbiota Transplantation by Oral Capsules for Hepatic Encephalopathy Treatment
This interventional study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of oral capsule fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) for treating hepatic encephalopathy refractory to conventional rifaximin and lactulose therapy in patients with liver cirrhosis. Patients diagnosed with hepatic encephalopathy refractory to rifaximin and lactulose therapy will be randomized into three groups. …
Efficacy and Safety of Nitazoxanide in Preventing Recurrence of Hepatic Encephalopathy
Efficacy and Safety of Nitazoxanide in preventing recurrence of Hepatic Encephalopathy.
Late Evening and Early Morning Protein Supplement to Reduce Readmissions for Hepatic Encephalopathy
Readmission rates for patients with hepatic encephalopathy due to end stage liver disease are high. Hyperammonemia contributes significantly to encephalopathy and occurs because of impaired hepatic ureagenesis and increased skeletal muscle proteolysis. We propose a randomized, 6-month nutritional intervention in cirrhotic patients who have had at least 1 admission for …
Comparing Nifuroxazide Plus Lactulose With Lactulose Alone in the Treatment of Hepatic Encephalopathy
Evaluating the efficacy and safety of the efficacy and safety of nifuroxazide in combination with lactulose in comparison to lactulose alone in the treatment of hepatic encephalopathy in patients with grade II-III hepatic encephalopathy
Microbiota, Sarcopenia, and Hepatic Encephalopathy Change in Cirrhotic Patients Before and After Rehabilitation
Through this plan, it will provide many benefits to patients with liver cirrhosis complicated with sarcopenia and/or hepatic encephalopathy, their family members, and the government in Taiwan To explore the changes of fecal microbiota before and after treatment such as resistance training rehabilitation in patients with liver cirrhosis complicated with …
Role of Sarcopenia and Nutritional/Physical Therapy Intervention in Post-TIPS Hepatic Encephalopathy
The placement of TIPS (transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt) is the most effective strategy to treat complications of portal hypertension. However, the threat of developing post-TIPS complications diminishes its use and applicability. Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is the most feared and frequent post-TIPS complication, affecting between 25-54% of patients. Available treatments against …
