The following paper reports the case of a woman on in-center hemodialysis through an arteriovenous graft, who attended with an acute vascular access thrombosis. Post percutaneous thrombectomy, the patient presented a rare case of self-limited acute hepatitis secondary to the revascularization procedure. We explain the probable trigger for this complication, its pathophysiology, management, and evolution.

Immunotherapy-induced hepatitis is a well-known and relatively common side effect of immune checkpoint inhibitors. It is usually mild to moderate and responds well to corticosteroids with a full recovery. However, in rare cases, severe liver injury may develop, leading to fulminant liver failure.

Acute hepatitis of unknown etiology (non-HepA-E hepatitis) emerged affecting children in 2021 and in parallel with the COVID-19 pandemic. In the present article, we performed an analysis between two plasma samples from pediatric patients, one with non-HepA-E hepatitis and the other healthy, to evaluate possible proteomic alterations associated with viral targets as possible causative agents and pathophysiological processes using the high-resolution and label-free LC-MS/MS technique. We identified 72 altered differentially expressed proteins, 45 upregulated and 27 downregulated.

Background: Alcohol-associated hepatitis (AH) is a subtype of alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD) resulting in severe acute liver inflammation. This study aims to examine longitudinal trends in mortality from AH in the United States (US) from 1999 to 2020, stratifying the data by sex, age, and racial/ethnic groups.
Methods: We performed a cross-sectional study using data from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Wide-ranging Online Data for Epidemiologic Research (WONDER) to determine annual AH-related mortality rates (MR) in adults ≥21 years between 1999 and 2020.
