Efficacy of L-Ornithine L-Aspartate (LOLA) as an Adjunct to Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAA) Enriched Solutions on Clinical Outcomes in ICU Patients With Hepatic Encephalopathy
One of the most significant goals of hepatic encephalopathy (HE) treatment is to reduce ammonia levels by lowering its synthesis and enhancing its detoxification which can be achieved by using non-absorbable disaccharides, antibiotics, branched-chain amino acids (BCAA), L-ornithine L-aspartate (LOLA), and probiotics. LOLA decreases ammonia, therefore, it is presumed to …
Intravenous BCAA for HE in ACLF (BCAA-HE-ACLF)
This multi-centric study analyses the effect of intravenous branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) on overt HE in patients with ACLF. The investigators aim to study the efficacy of combining intravenous BCAA with lactulose versus lactulose alone, ammonia measures, endotoxin, metabolomics, and cerebral edema in the medical management of overt HE in …
TReatment for ImmUne Mediated PathopHysiology
TReatment for ImmUne Mediated PathopHysiology (TRIUMPH) is a multi-center, three arm, randomized, controlled trial of immunosuppressive therapy for children with acute liver failure. The study will determine if suppressing inflammatory responses with either corticosteroids or equine anti-thymocyte globulin therapy improves survival for children with this rare, life-threatening condition.
The Efficacy and Safety of Rifaximin Treatment
There will be 124 patients diagnosed as hepatitis B associated acute on chronic liver failure with mild to moderate hepatic encephalopathy will be enrolled in this study according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and will be randomly divided into two groups as 1:1.First group is called Rifaximin group, on …
Allopurinol Versus Atorvastatin to Prevent Complications of Liver Cirrhosis
The study aims to compare the potential benefit of allopurinol versus atorvastatin in reducing the risk of developing cirrhosis-related complications, delaying the onset of hepatocellular carcinoma, and improving survival. Furthermore, the study aims to evaluate their impact on parents' related quality of life.
Evaluation of Minimal Hepatic Encephalopathy in Patients With Cirrhosis and Portal Hypertension
Minimal hepatic encephalopathy (MHE) is a subclinical cognitive impairment and represents the mildest type of hepatic encephalopathy (HE). Portal hypertension is the main complication of cirrhosis and is responsible of severe complications such as HE. The consequence of portal hypertension is the formation of the spontaneous portosystemic shunts (SPSS). The …
Safety and Efficacy of Fecal Microbiota Transplantation
The gut microbiota is critical to health and functions with a level of complexity comparable to that of an organ system. Dysbiosis, or alterations of this gut microbiota ecology, have been implicated in a number of disease states. Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT), defined as infusion of feces from healthy donors …
Early Diagnosis and Timely Treatment of Cirrhotic Patients With Minimal Hepatic Encephalopathy (CHESS-NCRCID 2106)
Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is a common complication of cirrhosis, which seriously damages the life quality of patients. As the disease progresses, 50-80% of patients with cirrhosis develop HE. Minimal hepatic encephalopathy (MHE) is a manifestation of HE, in which the patient usually has no obvious clinical symptoms and can only …
VICIS - Vienna Cirrhosis Study
Patients with advanced chronic liver diseases treated at the Vienna General Hospital of the Medical University of Vienna will be offered to participate in this prospective observational trial. Clinical parameters and laboratory parameters will be recorded for all patients and patients will undergo a regular follow-up schedule with clinical visits …
Prospective Cohort Study of Complications and Outcomes in Cirrhosis
This is a multi-center, nested cohort study intended to investigate the prevalence, risk factors, and outcomes of complications in patients with acutely decompensated cirrhosis, especially focused on Cytomegalovirus (CMV) reactivation, bacterial infections, hepatic encephalopathy, and Hepatorenal syndrome. Patients diagnosed with acutely decompensated cirrhosis were enrolled. Upon enrollment, detailed baseline data …
