Hepatic Encephalopathy Is Not Always due to Liver Cirrhosis
Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is a frequent and debilitating complication of liver disease and is oftentimes associated with hyperammonaemia. However, hyperammonaemia may occur in underlying conditions other than acute or chronic liver failure and clinical awareness is needed in order to be recognized and treated properly. A 24-year-old woman presented herself to our emergency department with acute confusion and altered mental state due to severe hyperammonaemia. The patient was diagnosed in the age of 14 with ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) deficiency and was incompliant regarding her diet and suggested medication to treat...

The neurocognitive outcomes of hemodilution in adult patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting using cardiopulmonary bypass
CONCLUSIONS: The mild hemodilution was associated with a significant decrease in the incidence of neurocognitive dysfunction compared to moderate hemodilution in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting. Also, the transfused packed red blood cells increased during CPB and decreased after CPB with the mild hemodilution than moderate hemodilution.PMID:35417957 | DOI:10.4103/aca.aca_206_20 (Source: Annals of Cardiac Anaesthesia)
