acetic acid has been researched along with Hepatic Encephalopathy in 2 studies
Acetic Acid: Product of the oxidation of ethanol and of the destructive distillation of wood. It is used locally, occasionally internally, as a counterirritant and also as a reagent. (Stedman, 26th ed)
acetic acid : A simple monocarboxylic acid containing two carbons.
Hepatic Encephalopathy: A syndrome characterized by central nervous system dysfunction in association with LIVER FAILURE, including portal-systemic shunts. Clinical features include lethargy and CONFUSION (frequently progressing to COMA); ASTERIXIS; NYSTAGMUS, PATHOLOGIC; brisk oculovestibular reflexes; decorticate and decerebrate posturing; MUSCLE SPASTICITY; and bilateral extensor plantar reflexes (see REFLEX, BABINSKI). ELECTROENCEPHALOGRAPHY may demonstrate triphasic waves. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, pp1117-20; Plum & Posner, Diagnosis of Stupor and Coma, 3rd ed, p222-5)

"To obtain a more precise pathophysiological evaluation of the role of ammonia in acute hepatic encephalopathy, we compared the plasma ammonia concentrations and electroencephalographic recordings (EEGs) of rabbits with surgically induced acute hepatic failure (AHF, n = 10) and normal rabbits administered an infusion of ammonium acetate (NH4-Ac, n = 7) over a 10-hr period." | 3.67 | Continuous intravenous ammonia infusion as a model for the study of hepatic encephalopathy in rabbits. ( de Vlieger, M; Fick, TE; Schalm, SW, 1989) |
"On day 8 hepatic encephalopathy, as assessed by a trailmaking test, was improved in the supplemented group but not in the placebo group." | 2.65 | Oral zinc supplementation improves hepatic encephalopathy. Results of a randomised controlled trial. ( Bataille, C; Duchateau, J; Reding, P, 1984) |
"Some of the EEG abnormalities of acute hepatic encephalopathy in rabbits are presumably due to hyperammonemia; the encephalopathy observed in AHF at zero time is probably caused by the previously constructed portocaval shunt via an undefined, but possibly also ammonia-related, mechanism." | 1.28 | Continuous intravenous ammonia infusion as a model for the study of hepatic encephalopathy in rabbits. ( de Vlieger, M; Fick, TE; Schalm, SW, 1989) |
