Retrospective analysis on the treatment of drug induced liver injury in acute leukemia patients
Objective This research aims to explore the influential factors for drug-induced liver injury(DILI)in acute leukemia(AL)patients through retrospective analysis.Methods The information of AL patients with DILI hospitalized in a hospital from January 2015 to December 2020 were collected.Chi-square test was utilized to identify influential factors(age,gender,type of AL,state of DILI,type of DILI,indicators of liver function,hepatoprotective drugs,outcome)for DILI treatment of AL patients.Chi-square test was utilized for the correla-tion analysis.Results A total of 927 AL patients were enrolled,of which 84 patients had DILI and received med-ication with the effective rate of 72%.The influential factors that significantly correlated with patient outcomes were DILI types and drug usages,respectively(P<0.05).Abnormal liver function was identified as the major type of DILI(80.67%)but with less effective ratio(68.2%).A total of 13 hepatoprotective drugs were classi-fied into 6 categories and used in the DILI treatment.The medical therapy alone is the most common type of drug usages(62%).The mostly common drugs were reduced glutathione(45.0%),magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate(27.10%),and ornithine aspartate(27.10%).Conclusion Based on the data of the current study,DILI has good prognosis in most AL hospitalized patients.Evidence-based treatment and combinational usages of hepato-protective drugs play a significant role in the treatment of DILI.A special attention should be still paid on the ex-istence of clinical abuse of hepatoprotective drugs.
