Cerebral Hemodynamics and Cognitive Function in Cirrhotic Patients with Hepatic Encephalopathy

Figure 3

Correlation between ammonia and cerebral hemodynamics (, , PI, and RI) and declining cognitive function (NCT-A and DST) in patients with MHE. It includes the subfigures (a, b, c, d, e, and f). Subfigure (a) is correlation between ammonia and . Subfigure (b) is correlation between ammonia and . Subfigure (c) is correlation between ammonia and PI. Subfigure (d) is correlation between ammonia and RI. Subfigure (e) is correlation between ammonia and NCT-A. Subfigure (f) is correlation between ammonia and DST. Correlation was analyzed by Pearson’s correlation coefficient. means significant differences in correlation between two indexes.
