SUCCESSFUL USE OF PLASMA ADSORPTION (DPMAS) AS BRIDGE THERAPY FOR DRUG-INDUCED LIVER INJURY IN A PATIENT WITH PANCREATICOBILIARY TUBERCULOSIS: A CASE REPORT (ISN-WCN 2026) - "Supportive care included intravenous N-acetylcysteine, vitamin K, and albumin infusion. Early recognition of reversible hepatic injury and timely initiation of DPMAS may improve outcomes in high-risk patients, particularly in resource-limited settings or where transplantation is not immediately available. This case highlights the feasibility of using DPMAS as a bridge to recovery in severe DILI."

Acute Liver Failure in Adult-Onset Still Disease: A Diagnostic Challenge (SCCM 2026) - "Although hepatic involvement typically presents as mildly elevated transaminases, in rare cases, it can progress to acute liver failure.Description: 48-year-old female with a new diagnosis of AOSD on high dose prednisone and Bactrim for PJP prophylaxis, presented to the ER with a 3-day history of nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain...Patient was started on IV N-acetylcysteine, corticosteroids, and atovaquone...After clinical stabilization, patient was discharged with a tapering course of prednisone and continued on atovaquone. This case highlights the challenge of managing acute liver injury in the context of AOSD, which may result from disease itself, AOSD-induced macrophage activation syndrome, or DILI. High clinical suspicion, timely escalation of care to a liver transplant center and a multidisciplinary approach are critical in ensuring a favorable clinical outcome."

Fulminant Hepatic Failure in Dengue Infection: Two Survivors From a Resource-Limited Outbreak in Sudan. (PubMed, Clin Case Rep) - "Both patients received supportive management including intravenous N-acetylcysteine, correction of coagulopathy, glucose infusion, hypertonic saline, lactulose/rifaximin, and appropriate transfusions. Follow-up showed complete recovery of liver and renal parameters. These cases underscore that early recognition and intensive supportive management, including N-acetylcysteine, are critical for survival in dengue-associated fulminant hepatic failure, even in constrained settings."

Beyond the dose: unmasking 'therapeutic' paracetamol toxicity in a chronic alcohol user with severe acidosis-a case report. (PubMed, AME Case Rep) - "Intravenous N-acetylcysteine (NAC) was started, but the patient deteriorated rapidly and succumbed on day 2. The findings underscore the call for more nuanced guidelines and further research to determine appropriate dose thresholds and monitoring strategies for alcohol-dependent individuals. By harmonising these divergent clinical stances, patient safety can be enhanced through tailored, vigilant practice."

The Perfect Storm: Aspirin-Induced Liver Injury in Epstein-Barr Virus Mononucleosis Complicated by Cold Agglutinin Hemolytic Anemia (ACG 2025) - "Due to initial diagnostic uncertainty and significant transaminase elevation, she was empirically treated with intravenous N-acetylcysteine. Repeat laboratory testing showed resolved anemia and near normal liver function tests. This complex case highlights a unique presentation of severe liver injury suspected to be triggered by aspirin in the setting of acute EBV infection complicated by cold agglutinin hemolysis. While Reye syndrome is a well-recognized clinical entity involving liver injury in children given aspirin for viral illness, this case suggests that young adults may also experience idiosyncratic liver toxicity in this setting, particularly in the immunologically active milieu of acute EBV infection.Figure: Table 1: Relevant laboratory values at specific timepoints following day of aspirin intake"

This case highlights the potential risk of acute liver injury associated with Reishi mushroom ingestion and underscores the importance of considering supplement use in the evaluation of unexplained hepatitis.

Leptospirosis in Disguise: A Case of Cholestatic Jaundice and Multiorgan Involvement Without Classic Risk Factors (ACG 2025) - "Given a rising bilirubin and elevated INR, acute liver failure was considered, and the patient was started on intravenous N-acetylcysteine (NAC) while undergoing serial INR monitoring every 6–12 hours. Empiric doxycycline was initiated early and resulted in marked clinical improvement. This case underscores the importance of considering leptospirosis in the differential diagnosis of unexplained multiorgan dysfunction, even in the absence of classic epidemiologic risk factors. Prompt recognition and empiric treatment can be lifesaving in patients presenting with severe manifestations of this rare infection."

Host Immunomodulatory Interventions in Severe Influenza. (PubMed, J Infect Dis) - "The World Health Organization conditionally advises against the use of systemic corticosteroids, macrolides, plasma therapy, mechanistic target of rapamycin inhibitors, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs for such patients...An open-label randomized controlled trial (RCT) found that a triple combination of oseltamivir, clarithromycin, and naproxen improved outcomes in severe influenza...In contrast, adding macrolides or nitazoxanide has not consistently improved clinical outcomes. Promising evidence exists for anti-C5a antibodies in COVID-19, while case reports hint that intravenous N-acetylcysteine may benefit severe influenza pneumonia...Mycophenolic acid, pamidronate, and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma agonists are low priorities due to toxicity concerns...Treatment of severe influenza requires a multidisciplinary approach that integrates antiviral and immunomodulatory strategies. Clarifying these roles may enhance patient outcomes."
