What Is Known And Objective:
We report a special case of fenofibrate-induced acute severe DILI with sudden onset and rapid recovery, which is different from those in the LiverTox database.
Case Summary Description:
The acute severe DILI occurred within only 4 days after fenofibrate initial treatment for hypertriglyceridemia. Liver enzyme levels eventually declined to normal within two weeks after the discontinuation of fenofibrate.
What Is New And Conclusion:
Early detection of elevated hepatic enzymes after fenofibrate initial treatment helps physicians to avoid delayed diagnosis and subsequent treatment.

Special Features of Adaptive Immunity
The primary cell types involved in adaptive immunity are T cells and B cells. Each type has a unique role in defending the body against pathogens. T cells are responsible for cell-mediated immunity. They identify and eliminate infected cells directly,...

Specialized Characteristics of Cardiac Muscles
Cardiac muscle cells are smaller than skeletal muscles, averaging 10–20 mm in diameter and 50–100 mm in length. However, they have large energy demands for continuous contraction and relaxation. This energy is almost exclusively derived from aerobic metabolism of energy...
