TL;DR: Transient Elastography is an ultrasound based, non‐invasive technique to assess liver stiffness (LS) and changes in TE values and fibrosis scores FIB‐4 and APRI after DAA treatment of CHC are examined.

TL;DR: The understanding of the pathogenesis of SJS/TEN has improved: drug-specific T cell-mediated cytotoxicity, genetic linkage with HLA- and non-HLA-genes, TCR restriction, and cytot toxicity mechanisms were clarified.

TL;DR: DM subforms are discussed, focusing on their dermatological manifestations that can be classified as pathognomonic, characteristic, compatible, less common, rare, recently-described, and non-specific skin lesions.

TL;DR: The aim of this review is to summarize the evidence for standard treatment and to provide a systematic review on alternative treatments for adults and children with autoimmune hepatitis.

TL;DR: New insights in interactions of bile acids with biliary epithelia in PBC provide solid evidence of a role for impaired epithelial protection against potentially toxic hydrophobic bile Acid, raising the fundamental question as to whether this bile acid-induced epithelial damage is the cause or the consequence of the autoimmune attack to the bile epithelium.
