Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) has a complex pathogenesis and obvious individual difference. Early diagnosis and treatment of DILI may achieve good prognosis, but due to a lack of specific clinical symptoms, most cases cannot be identified in the early stage. If no timely treatment is given, DILI may progress to irreversible liver failure with a high mortality rate, and there are no effective therapies for advanced DILI except liver transplantation. Therefore, early diagnosis and treatment are of great importance for patients with DILI. This article summarizes the recent research advances in DILI, including suspected drugs, risk factors, pathogenesis, pathological features, clinical types and manifestations, diagnostic criteria and evaluation, and network database, in order to provide a basis for early diagnosis, clinical typing, treatment guidance, and prognostic evaluation of DILI.

Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is a chronic autoimmune liver disease characterized by progressive destruction of the small intrahepatic bile ducts. Patients with PBC often have extrahepatic autoimmune diseases, which can involve multiple organs and systems including the gastrointestinal tract, lung, rheumatoid immune system, and endocrine system. This article summarizes the research advances in the disease spectrum, pathogenesis, treatment, and prognosis of PBC with extrahepatic autoimmune disease.

Objective To investigate the application value of fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO), alveolar nitric oxide (CaNO), and eosinophils (EOS) in the differential diagnosis of respiratory diseases in children aged 3 to 6 years in Lanzhou, Gansu Province. Methods A total of 360 children aged 3 to 6 years with confirmed asthma, allergic rhinitis, or lower respiratory tract infection were selected as research subjects. Spearman's rank correlation coefficient was used to evaluate the correlation between FeNO, CaNO and EOS. The diagnostic value of FeNO, CaNO, and EOS for the differential diagnosis of the three diseases was assessed through random forest models, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, and multivariate Logistic regression analysis. Results The median valuesof FeNO and CaNO were higher in asthmatic children than in those with other diseases. The median value of EOS was the lowest in children with allergic rhinitis, and the median values of FeNO and CaNO were the lowest in children with lower respiratory tract infection. Correlation analysis showed a positive correlation between FeNO and CaNO (r=0.59, P < 0.05), a negative correlation between FeNO and EOS (r=-0.61, P < 0.05), and a negative correlation between CaNO and EOS (r=-0.63, P < 0.05). The random forest model indicated that FeNO had the highest importance in disease classification. ROC curve analysis revealed that FeNO, CaNO, and EOS had the highest diagnostic efficiency for lower respiratory tract infection among the three diseases (with areas under the curve of 0.86, 0.91, and 1.00, respectively). The area under the curve of the multivariate Logistic regression model for diagnosing asthma was 0.96, with a sensitivity of 0.902 and a specificity of 0.881. Conclusion FeNO, CaNO and EOS demonstrate good potential in the differential diagnosis of asthma, allergic rhinitis, and lower respiratory tract infection in children aged 3 to 6 years in Lanzhou. Furthermore, the multivariate Logistic regression model based on these three factors can effectively improve the diagnostic accuracy of asthma.

(0.05)). The sensitivity and the agreement rate were best at dose of Dob 10 ?g?kg~(-1)?min~(-1) with (86.5)% and (86.5)% (Kappa(0.71)), respectively. When Isoket combined with Dob 3,5 ?g?kg~(-1)?min~(-1), the sensitivities and the agreement rates were both significantly improved than either one used (both P

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVEWhether gemcitabine plus platinum chemotherapy is superior to gemcitabine or platinum single-agent chemotherapy for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is still in dispute, and the aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of gemcitabine combining platinum chemotherapy for patients with NSCLC.

METHODSWe searched relevant randomized controlled trials (RCTs) from VIP, CBM, CNKI, the Cochrane library, PUBMED and EMBASE. We traced the related references and experts in this field and communicated with other authors to obtain the information that has not been found. We made quality assessment of qualified RCTs assessed by the exclusion and inclusion criteria and used RevMan 5.0 provided by the Cochrane Collaboration to perform meta-analysis.

RESULTSFour RCTs were eligible and included 984 patients. Meta analysis results suggested that: compared with gecitabine single-agent chemotherapy, the combination had a statistically significant benefit in increasing the response rate (OR = 3.29, 95% CI: 1.79-6.05, P = 0.000 1) and 2-year survival rate (OR = 3.22, 95% CI: 1.45-7.12, P = 0.004) while increased the risk of the incidence of adverse reactions, especially the grade 3-4 thrombocytopenia (RR = 8.16, 95% CI: 1.71-39.07, P = 0.009); compared with cisplatin single-agent chemotherapy, the combination had a statistically significant benefit in increasing the response rate (OR = 3.51, 95% CI: 2.20-5.60, P < 0.01) and 1-year survival rate (OR = 1.67, 95% CI: 1.16-2.41, P = 0.006) while increased the risk of the incidence of adverse reactions, especially the grade 3-4 thrombocytopenia (OR = 28.55, 95% CI: 14.06-57.04, P < 0.01).

CONCLUSIONCompared with single-agent chemotherapy, the combining can significantly improve the efficiency and survival rate while increase the toxicity rare. The results still need to be proved by high quality RCTs.

Objective:To determine the risk factors, clinical characteristics and treatment prognosis, so as to provide reference for clinicians to diagnose, treat and prevent drug-induced liver injury (DILI).Methods:Data of 712 confirmed DILI cases were collected from the Second Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University between 2013 to 2019. Among them, 498 cases were included in the study. All patients medical history, clinical manifestations and classification, laboratory parameters, disease severity, and mortality rate were collected. Statistical analysis was performed using t-test, Mann-Whitney U test/Pearson χ2 test/Fisher's exact test or Spearman's rank test. Results:Among the suspicious drugs causing DILI, single medication accounted for 89.56%, mainly including traditional Chinese medicine (56.43%), anti-tumor and immunomodulatory agents (8.03%), anti-infective drugs (4.42%), antipyretic and analgesic drugs (4.22%) %), etc., while combination medication accounted for 10.44%. The clinical classification was dominated with hepatocyte injury (63.05%), and there was a statistically significant difference in clinical classification among age groups ( P<0.001). Age, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), total bilirubin (TBIL) and total bile acid (TBA) had statistically significant difference among different suspicious drugs in DILI caused by different drug ( P<0.001, 0.003, 0.001, <0.001 and <0.001). Laboratory test results showed that there were statistically significant differences in ALT, AST, ALP, γ-glutamyltransferase (GGT), TBA, international normalized ratio (INR), and eosinophils ( P<0.001, <0.001, <0.001, 0.018, 0.003 and 0.019, respectively). Chronic hepatitis was more common in the 54 cases who completed histopathological examination of the liver biopsy. Fibrosis degree was higher in the Western medicine group than Chinese herbal medicine group ( P<0.05), and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). 96.99% of DILI patients were cured or improved, and 3.01% of patients were uncured. Ordinal logistic regression analysis showed that GGT and INR were independent predictors of poor prognosis. Conclusions:Suspicious drugs for DILI are herbal/dietary supplements, anti-tumor and immunomodulatory, anti-infective, and antipyretic and analgesic. The most common clinical classification is hepatocyte injury. Most patients with DILI have a good prognosis after drug withdrawal and GGT and INR are independent predictors of poor prognosis.

Objective Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is generally considered to be accompanied by both left and right ventricular dysfunction,but most studies only analyze the left ventricular function. In this study, we evaluated the effect of arotinolol on right ventricular function in patients with DCM. Methods Right ventricular ejection fraction (RVEF) and right ventricular diameter (RVD) were measured by two-dimensional echocardiography (2-DE) in 33 DCM patients; RVEF measured by first-pass radionuclide angiography (FPRA) was compared with that by 2-DE. Results The treatment with arotinolol for one year resulted in a reduction in the right ventricular diameter (baseline, 23.0 ± 8.3 mm vs after one-year treatment, 20.7 ± 5.4 mm; P=0.004 ) and an associated increase in ejection fraction (baseline, 36.9 ± 10.3% vs after one-year treatment, 45.8 ± 9.6%; P ＜ 0.001 ); there is a high correlation between the 2-DE method and radionuclide ventriculographic method. The correlation coefficient is 0.933 (P＜0.001). Conclusion Arotinolol therapy could not only improve left ventricular function, but also improve right ventricular function in DCM patients.

Objective To detect mutations of the type Ⅱ human basic hair keratin (hHb) gene in a family of Han nationality with monilethrix.Methods Clinical data were collected from a family of Han nationality with monilethrix.Dermoscopy was performed to observe hairs of the family members,and light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were conducted to investigate the features of lesional hairs.Blood samples were obtained from the proband,other family members and 100 healthy controls,and DNA was extracted from these blood samples.Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was performed to amplify the exons 1 and 7 of the hHb1,hHb3 and hHb6 genes,and DNA sequencing results were compared with their sequences in the GenBank database.Results The proband was an 8-year-old girl,whose head hairs had become fragile and easy to pull out since 2 months after birth.Skin examination showed diffuse sparsehairs,most of which were 2-cm-long broken hairs with abnormal appearance.Moniliform hairs were scattered all over the head,especially on the occipital region,and follicular keratotic papules were observed on the back of the neck.The proband was diagnosed with monilethrix.There were a total of 15 members in the 3-generation family,and 4 were diagnosed with monilethrix.The hair shafts of the 4 patients all showed typical moniliform structures.After 9-month consecutive treatment with topical minoxidil 2％ solution,the hairs of the proband turned longer and denser.A heterozygous mutation c.1237G＞A (p.E413K) was identified in the exon 7 of the hHb6 gene in the 4 patients,but not in the other family members or 100 healthy controls.Conclusion The E413K mutation of the hHb6 gene was firstly found in the patients in a Chinese Han family with monilethrix,which may be responsible for moniliform hairs.
