ABSTRACT Objective: To analyse the overall clinical features of drug induced liver injury(DILI)from Chinese literatures published during the recent ten years, and know the epidemiologic feature of DILI in China. Methods:Using drug induced liver injury as key words, cases analyze literatures about DILI from 2005 to 2014 in Chinese Periodical Full text Database were searched, recorded gender, age, basic disease, medication time, ways of medication, clinical classifications, types of drugs, clinical characters and prognosis data, then analyzed and made a conclusion. Results: As 28 958 cases recorded gender in 253 articles recorded information, there were 14 787(51.06%) male and 14 171(48.94%)female, the average age was 45.90 years old.3 431(56.21%) disease time were less than 4 weeks, 1 282(21.00%) were between 4 weeks to 8 weeks,1 168(19.31%) were more than 8 weeks. The ways of medication including 1 526(67.14%) oral medication, 599(26.35%) intravenous medication, 52(2.29%) intramuscular injection, 45(1.98%) subcutaneous medication and 28(1.23%) extemal use. 7 261(58.28%) cases were classified to hepatocellular type, 2 793(22.42%) cases were cholestasis type and 2 405(19.30%) cases were mixed type.Drugs of Chinese herbs, antituberculotics, antimicrobials,antineoplastics and analgesic antipyretic were 7 264(25.08%), 6 205(21.43%), 3 815(13.17%), 2 824(9.75%) and 2 055(7.10%) patients respectively. The main clinical manifestations were fatigue(59.51%), poor appetite(54.48%), jaundice(50.63%). As for the prognosis, 9 315(6.36%) cases cured, 5 919(35.81%) cases improved well, 947(5.73%) cases no change, 347(2.10%) cases worse to dead. Conclusion:A great variety of drugs could induce liver injury, caused by traditional Chinese medicine was increasing. And due to the non specific clinical manifestation, the possibility of its misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis, so great importance should be attached to the monitoring and rational use of the related drugs. Specially strengthening liver toxicity, mechanism of action of traditional Chinese medicine research and its administration of liver function monitoring.The level of rational drug use should be improved. |
