  • The bile duct ligated rat : a relevant model to study muscle mass loss in cirrhosis 

    Bosoi, Cristina R.; Macedo de Oliveira, Mariana; Ochoa-Sanchez, Rafael; Tremblay, Mélanie; Ten Have, Gabriella A.; Deutz, Nicolaas E. P.; Rose, Christopher; Bémeur, Chantal (Springer, 2016-12)
    Muscle mass loss and hepatic encephalopathy (complex neuropsychiatric disorder) are serious complications of chronic liver disease (cirrhosis) which impact negatively on clinical outcome and quality of life and increase mortality. Liver disease leads ...
  • Hepatic encephalopathy : from metabolic to neurodegenerative 

    Ochoa-Sanchez, Rafael; Tamnanloo, Farzaneh; Rose, Christopher (Elsevier, 2021-06-15)
    Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is a neuropsychiatric syndrome of both acute and chronic liver disease. As a metabolic disorder, HE is considered to be reversible and therefore is expected to resolve following the replacement of the diseased liver with a ...
  • Progressive resistance training prevents loss of muscle mass and strength in bile duct‐ligated rats 

    Aamann, Luise; Ochoa-Sanchez, Rafael; Macedo de Oliveira, Mariana; Tremblay, Mélanie; Bémeur, Chantal; Gitte, Dam; Vilstrup, Hendrik; Aagaard, Niels Kristian; Rose, Christopher (Wiley, 2018-11-05)
