Treatment of encephalopathy varies with the primary cause of the symptoms; consequently, not all cases of encephalopathy are treated the same. The best treatments are designed by the treating physician once the patient's primary diagnosis is made.
In grammar, a modifier is an optional element in phrase structure or clause structure. A modifier is so called because it is said to modify (change the meaning of) another element in the structure, on which it is dependent. Typically the modifier can be removed without affecting the grammar of the sentence.
Modifiers that appear before the head are called premodifiers. Modifiers that appear after the head are called postmodifiers. Modifiers may be either restrictive (essential to the meaning of a sentence) or nonrestrictive (additional but not essential elements in a sentence). See Examples and Observations below. Also see: 1  Modification. 2  Adjectival. 3  Adjective Clause.
