Case Report: Rare Acute Abdomen: Focal Nodular Hyperplasia With Spontaneous Rupture.

Focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) of the liver is a benign lesion characterized by hypertrophic nodules with central star-shaped fibrous scars. The etiology and pathogenesis of FNH are not completely understood. A 43-year-old man was hospitalized because of acute abdominal pain.

The association between CYP2E1 polymorphisms and hepatotoxicity due to anti-tuberculosis drugs: a meta-analysis.

Background: Although there have been previous studies on the potential association between cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1) polymorphisms and the risk of anti-tuberculosis drug-induced hepatotoxicity (ATDH), the results have generally been controversial.

Methods: We searched Medline/PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library using the following key words: cytochrome P450 2E1, CYP2E1, polymorphism, tuberculosis and TB. The strength of the association between the CYP2E1 PstI/RsaI and DraI polymorphism and ATDH risk as measured by odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) was studied.
