Fosfomycin is an antibiotic frequently used to treat uncomplicated urinary tract infections. It is normally well-tolerated, but there are some reports of clinically relevant liver injury. We present the case of a 73-year-old female who presented with paucisymptomatic hepatocellular acute liver injury six days after taking fosfomycin. After ruling out viral, ischemic, and autoimmune hepatitis, as well as Wilson disease and biliary disorders, she was diagnosed with drug-induced liver injury (DILI) related to fosfomycin. The patient showed major improvement during the first week and the resolution of liver injury one month after onset. This case report aims to underscore the potential hepatotoxicity of fosfomycin.

Aim: To evaluate the postoperative analgesic efficacy and safety of ketorolac tromethamine in tibial plateau fracture (TPF) patients undergoing open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) surgery.
Methods: This retrospective cohort study included 194 TPF patients treated at Dongtai People's Hospital between October 2022 and March 2024. Patients meeting the inclusion criteria were divided into two groups: the ketorolac tromethamine group (n = 104), who received ketorolac tromethamine combined with imrecoxib, and the control group (n = 90), who received imrecoxib alone after ORIF.

Objective This study investigated the frequency and risk factors of acute liver injury (ALI) and the association between ALI and treatment in hospitalized patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Methods This was a single-center retrospective study of 631 hospitalized patients ≥18 years old who were diagnosed with COVID-19 and received treatment between July 1, 2020, and January 31, 2024. Demographic and clinical data were extracted from the electronic medical records.

Certain miscellaneous beans have a low glycemic index (GI) and may reduce the risk of chronic metabolic disorders, including type 2 diabetes and obesity, by modulating postprandial glucose homeostasis and blood lipid levels. In this study, red kidney bean flour and wheat gluten were used as raw materials, and long-chain inulin phosphate monoester (PFXL) was added to improve the quality of red kidney bean dough, prepare high-quality steamed bread, and explore its health effect on type 2 diabetes. The results showed that the addition of PFXL improved the water distribution and rheological properties of coarse grain dough and enriched the flavor of coarse grain steamed bread.

Peroxynitrite (ONOO), one of representative reactive nitrogen species with strong oxidative and nitrative properties, is known to be associated with various human diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, drug-induced liver injury (DILI), inflammation, and cancer. Probing its fluctuations throughout diseases holds profound promise for advancing early diagnosis and enabling prompt intervention. In this work, we designed and synthesized a β-diketonate Eu complex-based probe, [Eu(Cy-CDHH)(terpy)], for the time-gated luminescence (TGL) detection of ONOO.
