Abstract

MHE is frequent in patients with cirrhosis who achieved SVR after DAA. SVR is associated with low probability of resolution of MHE and may not entirely protect patients from developing MHE. Presence of MHE before DAA, older age, hypertension and hypoalbuminemia after SVR were independently associated with this condition.
