The aim of the study is:

  • Epidemiological/observational: investigating the presence of neuropsychological and electrophysiological alterations, suggesting a condition of minimal hepatic encephalopathy(and its behavioral correlates), in childhood and young adulthood affected by pre-hepatic portal hypertension due to portal vein thrombosis, even for implementing specific diagnostic protocols.
  • Interventional: collecting preliminary data on the effects of a probiotic, in order to implement a controlled clinical study.
