In this population, the impact of specific drinking patterns and history, particularly persistent binge drinking (PBD) history, on disease severity and prognosis remains unclear.AimTo evaluate the association between a history of PBD and the risks of advanced fibrosis and all‐cause mortality in individuals with MetALD.MethodsWe analysed data from NHANES 1999–2016, including adults with MetALD. PBD is defined as having had a history of drinking ≥ 4 (women) or 5 (men) alcoholic beverages almost every day, based on ALQ150/151 questionnaires. Advanced fibrosis was defined as FIB‐4 &gt; 2.67, and mortality outcomes were obtained from the National Death Index. Multivariable logistic and Cox regression models were used to examine the associations between PBD and both liver fibrosis and all‐cause mortality, adjusting for alcohol intake and other confounders.ResultsAmong 865 individuals with MetALD, 326 (37.7%) reported a history of PBD. Compared to those without PBD, participants with PBD had a higher risk of advanced fibrosis (adjusted OR = 2.23, 95% CI: 1.12–4.45, <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.023). PBD was also associated with increased all‐cause mortality (adjusted HR = 1.48, 95% CI: 1.03–2.13, <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.035). A higher risk of overnight hospitalisation in PBD supports these findings (adjusted OR = 1.88, 95% CI: 1.15–3.06, <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.012).ConclusionPBD history is associated with increased risks of advanced fibrosis and mortality in MetALD. Clinical assessment should include an evaluation of drinking patterns and history, particularly persistent binge drinking.","PeriodicalId":121,"journal":{"name":"Alimentary Pharmacology & Therapeutics","volume":"98 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":7.6,"publicationDate":"2025-07-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144677540","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although rare, idiosyncratic drug-induced liver injury (DILI) has been reported with their use. Here, we characterise the clinical features and HLA associations of cephalosporin-related liver injury.METHODSBetween Jan 1, 2004, and Nov 2, 2022, a total of 2347 cases of DILI were enrolled in the DILIN study, of which 1854 were adjudicated as probable, highly likely, or definite. HLA sequencing was performed, and association with the risk of DILI was examined.RESULTS58 cases (3%) were attributed to different cephalosporins, including cefazolin (n = 40), cephalexin (n = 4), ceftriaxone (n = 3), cefdinir (n = 3), cefuroxime (n = 3), and five other individual agents. Clinical features included a self-limited course with a mixed or cholestatic biochemical pattern without hypersensitivity features occuring in 1 to 4 weeks. Most striking was the phenotype of cefazolin and other parenteral cephalosporins given as a single dose with the onset of jaundice, fatigue, and itching 1 to 3 weeks later. In the total cohort, HLA-A*02:01 was significantly associated with an increased risk of cephalosporin-induced liver injury (OR: ~2.5-2.7, P < 0.0001). The association was strongest with cefazolin, with carrier frequencies of 85% vs. 38% in those with DILI from other drugs.CONCLUSIONSCephalosporins can cause self-limited, mixed/cholestatic hepatitis that arises after a short course of therapy with a latency of up to 3 weeks with cefazolin. Cephalosporin-induced liver injury is associated with the HLA-A*02:01 allele, which is linked to more severe liver injury at the onset of illness.","PeriodicalId":121,"journal":{"name":"Alimentary Pharmacology & Therapeutics","volume":"65 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":7.6,"publicationDate":"2025-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144669332","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is also important to note that this strategy may be of interest for patients with difficult-to-treat inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), although most currently available evidence assessed the switch from tofacitinib to upadacitinib [<span>3</span>]. Various studies, including ours, confirm the potential benefit of this approach, with approximately one in two patients achieving clinical remission after the induction phase. Similarly, the safety profile appears acceptable in patients previously exposed to multiple lines of immunomodulators.</p><p>There is less evidence supporting intra-class JAKi switching for sequences other than tofacitinib-to-upadacitinib in IBD. However, studies including rheumatoid arthritis have provided evidence to support cycling to another JAKi in case of inadequate response to a first JAKi besides tofacitinib [<span>4</span>].</p><p>Additionally, switching in patients intolerant to a first-line JAKi could be considered. Indeed, the safety profiles of the three available JAKi differ [<span>5</span>], and both safety and efficacy appear to be dose-related and intercorrelated. Therefore, a second-line JAKi could be proposed after discontinuation of a first-line JAKi that was effective but poorly tolerated. For instance, switching to tofacitinib or filgotinib could be an option in a patient receiving upadacitinib that is effective for colonic inflammatory activity but associated with severely burdensome acne. Acne is more frequent with upadacitinib than other JAKi [<span>6</span>].</p><p>As we emphasised in our paper, all intra-class switching strategies within the JAKi class should be carefully considered; future studies will be necessary to support the various potential approaches.</p><p><b>Mathieu Uzzan:</b> writing – original draft, conceptualization. <b>David Laharie:</b> writing – review and editing. <b>Julien Kirchgesner:</b> writing – review and editing.</p><p>M.U. declares counselling, boards or fees for AbbVie, Amgen, Celltrion, Pfizer, Owkin, Janssen, Lilly, Takeda.

Liver tissue and plasma were collected, and untargeted mass-spectrometry-based proteomics was performed. For classification of AIH versus MASLD and healthy, machine learning analyses were performed employing logistic regression models on liver and plasma proteome data. Findings were validated using data from the United Kingdom Biobank (UKB).RESULTSWe identified 7632 liver and 556 plasma proteins with 2521 liver and 227 plasma proteins differing between AIH and healthy, including 56 overlapping. Metabolic dysregulation and systemic immune activation characterised the AIH liver and plasma proteome, respectively. Plasma proteome profiling enabled classification of AIH from MASLD and healthy with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.91 (0.09 SD). Validation in the UKB was possible for 8 of 20 diagnostic proteins and showed consistent directional changes. Three proteins (C7, ICAM1, cAST) were significantly different between AIH and MASLD/healthy in unadjusted analyses, and 6 of 8 proteins (C7, ICAM1, cAST, IGFBP3, TIMP1, TTR) were significantly different when adjusting for age and sex.CONCLUSIONSClinical proteomic analyses of paired liver-plasma samples from patients with AIH enabled high diagnostic potential.
