Core Tip |
Minimal hepatic encephalopathy (MHE) represents the mildest type of hepatic encephalopathy, is very frequent, affecting from 20% up to 80% of patients tested, depending of the diagnostic tools used and has been related to the patients’ falls, fitness to drive, and working ability. As a consequence, MHE affects the patients and caregivers lives by altering their quality of life and even their socioeconomic status. Sarcopenia has been recently proposed as a risk factor for both minimal and overt Hepatic Encephalopathy. Aim of this review is to summarize the most recently published evidences about the emerging relationship between sarcopenia and cognitive impairment. |
