A group of 60 patients with HBV induced cirrhosis will be recruited for study, which involved a 4 times IMT with gastroduodenoscopy and the time interval is generally 2 weeks. Participants can keep taking their present treatment. All participants will be assessed at baseline, after 3 months, 6

Exercise is beneficial for people with MS. Exercise has many benefits for persons with multiple sclerosis (MS), including increased muscle strength, improved balance, decreased fatigue, decreased depression, improved memory, and improved quality of life. In addition to clinical improvements, there

Myalgic encephalopathy/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) leads to a substantial reduction in activity level. Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) quantifies physical performance, or functional capacity, by direct measurements of the maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max). Functional capacity is the

BACKGROUND Energy insufficiency: Mitochondrial and metabolic myopathies are inherited diseases compromising cellular energy metabolism, which especially affects skeletal muscle because of its high energy needs. Chemical energy is stored in the body as adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is derived

Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a chronic disease with a progressive destruction of hepatic parenchyma, leading to cirrhosis and high mortality in the absence of specific treatment. It has been demonstrated that the treatment with corticosteroids and azathioprine provides clinical and laboratory

Introduction: Major hepatectomy lead to significant postoperative anatomical and physiological changes. The liver dictates the systemic metabolic environment and helps maintain homeostasis. When segments of liver are removed, it is challenged to regenerate and restore cellular volume, as well as

100 ambulatory patients with cirrhosis will be prospectively evaluated for severity of liver disease, anemia, and fatigue; exclusion criteria includes chronic renal insufficiency and recent alcohol use, gastrointestinal bleeding, and infection. Patients will first be identified and be asked to

The study design is a prospective observational analysis. Subjects who have been deemed candidates for a large-volume paracentesis, based on clinical criteria and who meet the above-referenced inclusion and exclusion criteria will be recruited to participate in this study. Study visits will take

Background: Ascites is a frequent complication of cirrhosis, occurring in 50% of patients and is associated with 50 % mortality in two years. Bacterial infections in patients with cirrhosis are frequent during hospitalization and is an important precipitating event for the development of renal

A. Introduction and Review of literature Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is broadly defined as an alteration in mental status and cognitive function occurring in presence of liver failure. The clinical picture of HE arises as a complication of chronic and, more rarely, acute liver disease. HE occurs in
