26. Cognitive deficits associated with chronic hepatic encephalopathy and their response to levodopa.
A battery of computer-based psychological tests given to seven patients with chronic hepatic encephalopathy showed them to be intellectually impaired, particularly on speed-based measures, as compared with general hospital patients and with patients with cirrhosis but without clinical or electroencephalographic evidence of encephalopathy. Two of the seven pa

31. Reye's Syndrome
Reye's syndrome (encephalopathy with fatty infiltration of the viscera) is an acute illness of childhood that produces hepatic dysfunction and metabolic encephalopathy. The disease is fatal in as many as 40% of cases. The cause is unknown. Several environmental agents, particularly salicylates and aflatoxin, have been implicated as possible toxins in this di

32. Vidarabine-associated encephalopathy and myoclonus.
A 24-year-old man with disseminated herpes zoster, which occurred 9 months after bone marrow transplantation for chronic myeloid leukemia, developed encephalopathy and immobilizing myoclonus after 7 days of vidarabine treatment (10 mg/kg of body weight per day). Only mild hepatic dysfunction was a risk factor for a toxic reaction. After the vidarabine therap

34. Metabolic and mitochondrial morphological changes that mimic Reye syndrome after endotoxin administration to rats.
The administration of sublethal doses of Escherichia coli O111:B4 endotoxin to starved rats results in significant increases in plasma ammonia, free fatty acids, and serum lactate compared with starved controls. These metabolic alterations are associated with Reye syndrome-like histological findings of hepatic microvesicular fatty accumulation and hepatic ul

35. Distal splenorenal shunt for management of variceal bleeding in patients with schistosomal hepatic fibrosis.
The distal splenorenal shunt was performed in 60 patients with schistosomal hepatic fibrosis in whom no evidence of cirrhosis was documented by preoperative needle and operative wedge biopsy. No patients have been lost to follow-up with a median of 37 months (range: 17-86). The results showed low operative mortality (1.7%), high patency rate (92.5%), and low

36. Clozapine-induced fatal fulminant hepatic failure: A case report
Fulminant hepatic failure (FHF) refers to the rapid development of severe acute liver injury with impaired synthetic function and encephalopathy in a person who previously had a normal liver or had well-compensated liver disease. The potential causes of FHF are numerous, but viral or toxin-induced hepatitis are the most common. Clozapine-induced hepatotoxici
