Anna‐Elisabeth Hopp, Meike Dirks, Carlotta Petrusch, Annemarie Goldbecker, Anita Blanka Tryc, Hannelore Barg‐Hock, Christian Strassburg, Jürgen Klempnauer, Karin Weissenborn, Henning Pflugrad – 22 August 2019 – Cognitive dysfunction caused by hepatic encephalopathy (HE) improves within the first year after liver transplantation (LT). However, cognitive restitution seems to be incomplete in a subset of patients and after LT a new‐onset cognitive decline was described. Data about the longterm development of cognitive function after liver transplantation (LT) are sparse.

Vikrant P. Rachakonda, James P. DeLany, Erin E. Kershaw, Jaideep Behari – 21 August 2019 – Weight loss is the primary intervention for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). A decrease in resting metabolic rate (RMR) out of proportion to the degree of weight loss may promote weight regain. We aimed to determine the impact of hepatic steatosis on weight loss‐associated changes in RMR and metabolic adaptation, defined as the difference between predicted and measured RMR after weight loss.
