Prevalence of cognitive impairment in liver transplant recipients
Open accessAbstract
Liver transplant (LT) recipients have a high burden of cognitive impairment risk factors identified in other populations, yet little work has explored cognition in the United States LT population. We characterized prevalence of cognitive impairment (CI) in LT recipients pre‐LT and ≥3 months post‐LT. Adult LT recipients with cirrhosis but without active pre‐LT hepatic encephalopathy (HE) were screened for CI using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) for CI (MoCA <24) both pre‐LT and ≥3 months post‐LT. The association between cognitive performance and recipient characteristics was assessed using logistic regression. Of 107 LT recipients, 36% had pre‐LT CI and 27% had post‐LT CI [median (Q1–Q3) MoCA 26 (23–28)]. Each 1‐point increase in pre‐LT MoCA was associated with 26% lower odds of post‐LT cognitive impairment (aOR .74, 95% CI .63–.87, p < .001), after adjusting for recipient age, history of HE, and time since LT. In this study of cirrhosis recipients without active pre‐LT HE, cognitive impairment was prevalent before LT and remained prevalent ≥3 months after LT (27%), long after effects of portal hypertension on cognition would be expected to have resolved. Our data expose an urgent need for more comprehensive neurologic examination of LT recipients to better identify, characterize, and address predictors of post‐LT cognitive impairment.

In Berry et al, each point increase in pretransplant MoCA was associated with 26% lower odds of post-liver transplantation cognitive impairment (adjusted OR 0.74, 95% CI 0.63-0.87, p<0.001), after adjusting for recipient age, history of HE, and time since liver transplantation.
“Berry et al14 found that each point increase in the pretransplant Montreal Cognitive Assessment was associated with 26% lower odds of post-liver transplantation cognitive impairment (adjusted OR: 0.74, 95% CI: 0.63–0.87, p<0.001), after adjusting for recipient age, history of HE, and time since liver transplantation.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
