UNASSIGNED: As @entity285 induces change in frontal cortex primarily involved in cognition, cognitive function may be different between viral and @entity7160 (LC). This study aimed to determine the differences of cognitive function between viral and alcoholic compensated LC. From October 2011 to March 2013, 80 @entity1 (viral: 37; @entity285 : 43) with compensated LC were prospectively enrolled. Neuropsychological functions including attention, language, @entity2414 , and frontal/executive function were evaluated between two groups and compared with age-matched normal group (n  =  1000). Cumulative incidence rate of overt @entity99 ( @entity99 ) was calculated. In the comparison with normal group, both two groups showed decreased memory function, frontal/executive function, and Korea-Mini Mental Status Examination. In the analysis of two groups, memory function by Verbal Learning Test (recognition: 20.1      3.6 and 17.8      4.8, p  =  0.022), visuospatial function by Ray-Complex Figure Copy Test (recognition: 19.0      2.6 and 17.3      4.0, p  =  0.043), frontal/executive function by Controlled Oral Ward Association (semantic: 17.1      6.9 and 12.7      6.9, p  =  0.004), and the Korea-Mini Mental Status Examination (27.5      1.9 and 26.2      3.1, p  =  0.03) showed low scores in alcoholic compensated LC @entity1 . The 1-, 2-, and 3-year cumulative incidence rates of overt @entity99 were 23  %, 26  %, and 26  % and 33  %, 43  %, and 49  % in the viral and alcoholic compensated LC group, respectively (p  =  0.033). @entity2414 and frontal lobe executive functions and early development of overt @entity99 were more common in @entity1 with alcoholic LC. For @entity1 with alcoholic LC, more integrated tests for early detection of minimal @entity99 and intensive treatment should be considered to prevent overt @entity99 .
