ResumoResults: It was seen that a healthy person scored between 0-20, a person with overt encephalopathy 41-60 and 21-40 meant minimal hepatic encephalopathy.Cut-off for each domain was also proposed separately.Conclusion: Apart from being highly specific and sensitive, the proposed test (which is in the form of a colorful game) seems to be amusing for the depressed cirrhotic.
