Traditional healers combine four medicinal plants (Cochlospermum tinctorium, Terminalia macroptera, Leptadenia hastata and Commiphora Africana to treat hepatitis in Burkina Faso. The aimed was evaluate the hepato-curative activity of lyophilized aqueous decoction (LAD) hydroethanolic macerate (LHM) plant extracts on CCl4-induced rats. We assessed acute toxicity scavenging 2, 2-Diphenyl-1-picryl...

BACKGROUND Alnus nitida (Spach) Endl. is traditionally used for inflammatory disorders. Diarylheptanoids constituents having diverse therapeutically importance including hepato-protective was reported in A. nitida. The aim of this study was to explore the antioxidant and hepato-protective profile of A. nitida stem bark's crude methanol extract (ANM). METHODS Crude methanol extract of A. nitid...

Background: Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is the current global public health concern. Till date no specific, effective, and approved treatment available. With rapid increase in rate of infection, repurposing use anti- viral like remdesivir favipiravir were considered as an option to find promising anti-COVID therapeutics. In this study, we aim observe hepato-renal safety concerns related thes...

Early and thorough peritoneal and haemodialysis has a part to play in the management of selected patients with hepato-renal failure. Patients with advanced irreversible hepatic damage due to cirrhosis, however, may have their prognosis shortened by dialysis, but there are many problems in these techniques in patients with multiple organ failure which still require investigation and solution.

We present a diagnostically challenging case of 30-year-old twin males with chronic elevated liver enzymes (GGT) without history of hepato-biliary diseases. Genetic study disclosed mutations in gene ABCB11 and liver histopathology shows only scanty fatty change without evidence of fibrosis or malignancy. Liver enzymes level successfully return to normal in 2 moths following ursodeoxycholic acid...

IntroductionIn spite of the conventional description of external liver morphology, there are new studies about different presence of some variant liver surface features. Their clinical importance in modern liver surgery and radiology as well as hepato-pancreato-biliary practice gave us the idea to

Stauffer syndrome is characterized by abnormal liver function tests, hepato-splenomegaly, histologic changes consistent with non-specific hepatitis, and recovery of these abnormalities after nephrectomy, in patients with RCC. Few cases have been described with paraneoplastic cholestatic jaundance of RCC in the literature. We report a case of a female patient presenting with advanced renal cell ...
