Résumé

Minimal hepatic encephalopathy (MHE) represents one of the most overlooked complications of liver cirrhosis. To compare the utility and efficacy of different MHE diagnostic modalities. This case-control study was conducted on hepatitis C virus (HCV)-related compensated cirrhotic patients. The Psychometric Hepatic Encephalopathy Score (PHES) was used to assign patients to MHE and controls. All patients were subjected to plasma ammonia, serum 3-nitrotyrosine (3-NT), critical flicker frequency (CFF), and the modified inhibitory control test (ICT). CFF was significantly lower in the control group (38.5, 40 Hz, 3-NT and ICT are advantageous to reveal MHE in compensated liver cirrhosis, while CFF can be only used as adjuncts, with humble merits of ammonia.
