Yo‐ichi Yamashita, Katsunori Imai, Kosuke Mima, Shigeki Nakagawa, Daisuke Hashimoto, Akira Chikamoto, Hideo Baba – 28 June 2017 – Idiosyncratic drug‐induced liver injury (iDILI) is a rare adverse drug reaction that occasionally leads to acute liver failure or even death. An aging population that uses more drugs, a constant influx of newly developed drugs, and a growing risk from herbal and dietary supplements of uncertain quality can lead to an increase in iDILI.
Harrys A. Torres, Jeff Hosry, Parag Mahale, Minas P. Economides, Ying Jiang, Anna S. Lok – 27 June 2017 – Hepatitis C virus (HCV) reactivation in patients receiving cancer treatment has been reported in retrospective studies. We sought to determine prospectively the incidence, predictors, and clinical significance of HCV reactivation during cancer treatment. HCV‐infected patients receiving cancer treatment at our institution between November 2012 and July 2016 were studied.

Jonas F. Ludvigsson, Hanns‐Ulrich Marschall, Hannes Hagström, Jonas Höijer, Olof Stephansson – 27 June 2017 – Liver biopsy is an important procedure in the investigation of liver disease. We examined pregnancy outcomes in women who underwent liver biopsy during pregnancy. In a nationwide population‐based cohort study we linked data from the Swedish Medical Birth Registry (for births between 1992 and 2011) with those from the Swedish Patient Registry. We identified 23 pregnancies exposed to liver biopsy.
