Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how q-EEG changes in chronic hepatitis C patients treated with IFN-alpha relate to the severity of their liver condition as assessed by biopsies.
- A total of 102 patients had their EEGs monitored before, during, and after treatment, revealing that more severe liver damage correlates with more noticeable EEG alterations.
- The findings suggest that EEG changes should be closely monitored during treatment, especially in patients with significant liver pathology.
The authors recently observed alterations in the quantitative EEG findings in patients with chronic hepatitis C who were treated with interferon-alpha (IFN-alpha). However, the factors that influenced such EEG alterations remain unclear. The authors evaluated the correlation between QEEG alterations that occurred during IFN-alpha treatment and the age of 98 patients with chronic hepatitis C.

A 27-year-old female was admitted to our hospital after a regular medical check revealed BHL and cavitation in the right upper lung field on a chest radiograph. Ga scintigraphy showed abnormal uptake bilaterally in the mediastinal and hilar lymph nodes. We strongly suspected lung sarcoidosis, then performed TBLB and BAL.
