The characteristics and clinical outcome of drug-induced liver injury in a Chinese hospital: A retrospective cohort study.

ABSTRACT: The aim of this cohort study was to determine the characteristics and clinical outcome of 287 patients with drug-induced liver injury (DILI) in a Chinese hospital.Between January 2008 and January 2013, individuals who were diagnosed with DILI were selected. The complete medical records of each case were reviewed, and factors for the outcome of patients with DILI were extracted and analyzed using univariate and multivariate analysis.Two hundred eighty-seven cases identified as DILI were included in the study. A total of 105 different drugs were considered to be related to the hepatotoxicity. The main causative group of drugs was Chinese herb (n?=?111). Liver failure developed in 9 (3.1%) patients, and 2 died (0.7%). Overall, complete recovery occurred in 92 (32.1%) patients. Univariate analysis and binary logistic regression analysis identified the digestive symptoms, jaundice, total bilirubin (TBIL), and direct bilirubin (DBIL) as independent factors for the non-recovery of DILI. Then the prediction model, including digestive symptoms, jaundice, TBIL, and DBIL, was built by using binary logistic regression analysis again. Receiver operating characteristic curve validated the strong power (area under the curve (AUC)?=?0.907) of prediction model for predicting the DILI non-recovery.DILI is an important cause of liver test abnormalities, and Chinese herb represented the most common drug group. The factors such as digestive symptoms, jaundice, TBIL, and DBIL have effect on DILI outcomes. The prediction model, including digestive symptoms, jaundice, TBIL, and DBIL, established in this study is really an excellent predictive tool for non-recovery of DILI patients.

Project description:The utility of pharmacist consultation for drug-induced liver injury (DILI) management has not been explored. This retrospective cohort study evaluated the impact of a pharmacist active consultation (PAC) service on the management and outcome in patients with DILI. Consecutive patients meeting clinical biochemical criteria for DILI were enrolled at a tertiary teaching hospital between 1 January 2020 and 30 April 2022. The Roussel Uclaf Causality Assessment Method was used to assess causality between drug use and liver injury for each suspected DILI patient. Included patients were grouped according to whether they received PAC, and a proportional hazard model with multivariate risk adjustment, inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW), and propensity score matching (PSM) was used to assess DILI recovery. In the PSM cohort, the quality of medical care was compared between PAC and no PAC groups. A total of 224 patients with DILI (108 who received PAC and 116 who did not) were included in the analysis. Of these patients, 11 (10%) were classified as highly probable, 58 (54%) as probable, and 39 (36%) as possible DILI in the PAC group, while six patients (5%) were classified as highly probable, 53 (46%) as probable, and 57 (49%) as possible DILI in the no PAC group (p = 0.089). During patient recovery, PAC was associated with a ∼10% increase in the cumulative 180-day recovery rate. The PAC group had a crude hazard ratio (HR) of 1.73 [95% confidence interval (CI): 1.23-2.43, p = 0.001] for DILI 180-day recovery, which remained stable after multivariate risk adjustment (HR = 1.74, 95% CI: 1.21-2.49, p = 0.003), IPTW (HR = 1.72, 95% CI: 1.19-2.47, p = 0.003), and PSM (HR = 1.49, 95% CI: 1.01-2.23, p = 0.046). In the PSM cohort, PAC was more likely to identify suspect drugs (90% vs. 60%, p < 0.001) and lead to timely withdrawal of the medication (89% vs. 57%, p < 0.001). Thus, PAC is associated with a better quality of medical care for patients with DILI and can improve patient outcomes.

Project description:ObjectivesData on cardiac arrest survivors from developing countries are scarce. This study investigated clinical characteristics associated with in-hospital mortality in resuscitated patients following cardiac arrest in Brazil.DesignRetrospective analysis of prospectively collected data.SettingNinety-two general ICUs from 55 hospitals in Brazil between 2014 and 2015.PatientsAdult patients with cardiac arrest admitted to the ICU.InterventionsNone.Measurements and main resultsWe analyzed 2,296 patients (53% men; median 67 yr (interquartile range, 54-79 yr]). Eight-hundred patients (35%) had a primary admission diagnosis of cardiac arrest suggesting an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest; the remainder occurred after admission, comprising an in-hospital cardiac arrest cohort. Overall, in-hospital mortality was 83%, with only 6% undergoing withholding/withdrawal-of-life support. Random-effects multivariable Cox regression was used to assess associations with survival. After adjusting for age, sex, and severity scores, mortality was associated with shock (adjusted odds ratio, 1.25 [95% CI, 1.11-1.39]; p < 0.001), temperature dysregulation (adjusted odds ratio for normothermia, 0.85 [95% CI, 0.76-0.95]; p = 0.007), increased lactate levels above 4 mmol/L (adjusted odds ratio, 1.33 [95% CI, 1.1-1.6; p = 0.009), and surgical or cardiac cases (adjusted odds ratio, 0.72 [95% CI, 0.6-0.86]; p = 0.002). In addition, survival was better in patients with probable out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, unless ICU admission was delayed (adjusted odds ratio for interaction, 1.63 [95% CI, 1.21-2.21]; p = 004).ConclusionsIn a large multicenter cardiac arrest cohort from Brazil, we found a high mortality rate and infrequent withholding/withdrawal of life support. We also identified patient profiles associated with worse survival, such as those with shock/hypoperfusion and arrest secondary to nonsurgical admission diagnoses. Our findings unveil opportunities to improve postarrest care in developing countries, such as prompt ICU admission, expansion of the use of targeted temperature management, and implementation of shock reversal strategies (i.e., early coronary angiography), according to modern guidelines recommendations.
