Drug-Induced liver injury (DILI) is a common harmful drug reaction of some medication which can cause the damage to liver cells, or might be a chance of death. In the western countries DILI is the main cause for acute liver failure. These reactions are very common because almost all drug regimens can cause injury to liver. Most of DILI cases are harmless and they get better after stopping the offending drug. These reactions are mainly due to some pharmacological remedies, traditional medications, herbal and nutritional supplements. Due to these harmful reactions, elevation is noticed in the liver enzymes (alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphate, total bilirubin) 2N from its normal value. Drug-induced liver injury includes 1,000 of pharmacological remedies or more. Here, we review the maximum current literature, so the treatment includes timely diagnosis and removal of the doubtable medication is the key. This paper explains the different causes, pharmacological medications responsible for drug-induced liver injury, effect of covid-19 on liver injury and future perspective. It is important to be aware of and remove the suspected agent as soon as possible. There are no specific risk factors for DILI, but existing liver disease and genetic factors may be a priority for some people. Treatment of liver damage caused by drugs and herbs includes immediate drug withdrawal and supportive care aimed at alleviating unwanted symptoms. Main purpose of this paper is to deliver the info about the DILI, which are dose related, identification and consideration of disease. Keywords: Drug-Induced liver injury (DILI), Pathophysiology, Diagnosis, Treatment, Risk factors and effect of covid-19 on liver injury.
Body organs are very crucial when it comes to homeostatically maintaining them. If any changes occur in their function, it may lead to the development of diseases in the body. The kidney is one of the functionalised organs that is connected with the ureter and urinary bladder, which is basically the lower part of the body. The kidney priorly controls the volume of various body fluids, fluid osmolality, acid-base balance, various electrolyte concentrations, and the removal of toxins. Any dis-balance in the function of the kidney can generate a disease like renal calculi (kidney stone), chronic kidney disease (CKD), polycystic kidney disease (PKD), urinary tract infections (UTI), etc. Kidney stones (KS) are prevalent worldwide, affecting 15% of individuals. A stone arranged into various sizes may be micro, macro, and nano or found as mono or polycrystalline forms. The names of the two most common kidney stones, calcium and non-calcium stones (Uric acid stones, struvite stones, cysteine stones, and drug-induced KS), are determined primarily by their composition. Calcium stones are commonly found in individuals, approximately 80% of KS. This review provided recent details on kidney stone symptoms, etiology, psychophysiology, and management perspective. Keywords: Kidney disease, calcium stone, renal calculi, chronic kidney disease, Polycystic kidney disease.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
