OBJECTIVE:To investigate the characteristics of pediatric drug-induced liver injury (DILI) in China,and to provide reference for reducing ADR.METHODS:Using"liver injury liver damage hepatotoxicity hepatitis liver disease""drug induced children" as keywords,related domestic literatures were retrieved from CNKI and Wanfang database during 2007-2016,clinical information of DILI children in literatures were recorded in detail and analyzed comprehensively.RESULTS:A total of 363 literatures were retrieved,including 13 effective literatures and 665 children in total.There were 424 boys (63.76％)and 241 girls (36.24％),with ratio of 1.76 ∶ 1.The youngest child was 1 month old,the oldest child was 14 years old;the average age was 7.87 years,337 children aged more then 7 years old,accounting for 50.68％.Top 3 primary diseases were respiratory tract infection (40 cases,31.50％),hematologic diseases (29 cases,22.83％) and tumor (14 cases,11.02％).Top 3 pediatric DILI-inducing drug types were antibiotics (245 cases,34.41％),TCM (143 cases,20.08％) and antipyretic analgesics (113 cases,15.87％).DILI usually happened within 4 weeks (332 cases,82.18％).The most common clinical classification was hepatocellular type (382 cases,65.30％).The severity of liver injury was mainly mild and moderate (505 cases,86.32％),and 80 cases were severe (13.68％),including 31 cases of hepatic failure (5.30％).Clinical symptoms mainly manifested as anorexia,jaundice,nausea,vomiting,hypodynamia and abdominal discomfort.After drug withdreawd and treatment,96.54％ of the patients were recovered or cured,and 4 cases died (0.60％).CONCLUSIONS:Under the premise of rational use of drugs,it is necessary to carry out medication education and supervision for antibiotics,TCM and antipyretic analgesics which mainly induce pediatric DILI,pay attention to allergic history and evaluate the progress of extrahepatic symptoms.When ADR occurred,the timely and drug withdrawal intervention are conducted to improve good prognosis.
