Gastroenterologist warns liver cirrhosis can affect your brain, leading to symptoms like personality changes, tremors
Many don't realise that cirrhosis, a severe form of chronic liver disease, can progress to a condition that can impact brain function. In an August 15 Instagram post, gastroenterologist Dr Joseph Salhab highlighted how problems with your liver health could affect your brain function. When the liver sustains damage and loses its ability to remove toxins from the bloodstream effectively, it can lead to impaired brain function. (Adobe Stock) Also Read | Fitness coach shares 7 habits that can burn fat 24/7: 'Building muscles burns calories even at rest' The gastroenterologist and liver specialist explained how overt hepatic encephalopathy (OHE), a condition which can eventually impact your brain due to the progression of a liver disease. Here's how it impacts your brain function: How can overt hepatic encephalopathy (OHE) impact your brain? In the post, Dr Salhab highlighted that liver disease can progress and eventually impact brain function. Explaining what OHE is, the gastroenterologist stressed that it is a complication of cirrhosis and occurs when the liver sustains damage and loses its ability to remove toxins from the bloodstream effectively, causing toxins to accumulate and lead to impaired brain function. He explained, 'This leads to a range of mental and physical symptoms that can significantly impact a person's well-being.' Symptoms associated with an episode of OHE can include: confusion disorientation severe personality changes changes in sleep patterns tremors, and more. On the surface, these symptoms may not seem connected to a decline in liver function, but the gastroenterologist pointed out that this is why it is always recommended to speak to your doctor about all of your symptoms. However, Dr Salhab pointed out that despite the condition's complexities, it's important to note that the risk of other OHE episodes can be managed. 'Understanding your condition is one of the most empowering steps you can take. I've heard from many patients and caregivers who said that they wish they knew what to look for, but they simply didn't have access to the right information. If you or someone you love is living with OHE, don't wait to learn more.' Note to readers: This article is for informational purposes only and not a substitute for professional medical advice. Always seek the advice of your doctor with any questions about a medical condition.

Kite-related disruptions on metro network fell sharply on I-Day: DMRC
The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) has reported a sharp decline in incidents of kite strings causing malfunction on its network on Independence Day and Janmashtami this year. The transporter attributed the decline to preventive measures and public cooperation. "Incidents of service disruptions caused by kite flying during August have reduced significantly over the years, particularly around Independence Day," it said in a statement. Kite flying during these festivals, especially when done with metal-coated thread, often leads to tripping of overhead wires and delays in train services. According to DMRC, the number of such incidents has steadily reduced over the past few years from 102 in 2021 to 90 in 2022, 33 in 2023, 23 in 2024 and 11 so far this year. To tackle the problem, DMRC said it put in place maintenance teams of five to seven members across all lines. These teams watch out for entangled kite strings, it said. In addition, insulation sleeves on catenary wires at elevated stations, modifying overhead equipment to increase clearance between live and earthed wires, shifting return conductors, and deploying catenary maintenance vehicles during non-operational hours have also led to fewer disruptions, DMRC said. So far, sleeves have been fitted at 20 elevated stations across different corridors, it said. DMRC has also run awareness campaigns cautioning the public against flying kites near the metro's 25,000-volt OHE wires, highlighting the dangers involved.
