All cases arose through 2003 \u2013 2011. An additional 28 reported cases were gathered through literature review of the PubMed database specifically for studies that observed TNF-a antagonist-related hepatotoxicity.<\/p>\n<p>According to researcher Maurizio Bonacini, MD, it was decided to include literature cases in an effort to establish the most prevalent cases of anti-TNF toxicity. Of the 26 cases that researchers at Infliximab studied, four cases were considered relatable to adalimumab and etanercept.<\/p>\n<div class=\"resources\" style=\"padding: 10px; background-color: #484747; margin: 10px 10px 10px 0px;\">\n<p style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Of Interest:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/news.google.com\/news\/url?sa=t&amp;fd=R&amp;usg=AFQjCNHfck13uyHucHe6DN8zRGVyrxicew&amp;url=http:\/\/www.liversupport.com\/wordpress\/2013\/06\/what-berry-is-best-for-your-liver\/\">What Berry Is Best for Your Liver?<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/news.google.com\/news\/url?sa=t&amp;fd=R&amp;usg=AFQjCNHmsGj4VC1KJFSoTYIPYdFufAGg_w&amp;url=http:\/\/www.redorbit.com\/news\/health\/1112879470\/dietary-fructose-causes-liver-damage-in-animal-model\/\">Dietary Fructose Causes Liver Damage In Animal Model<\/a><\/li>\n<li><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<p>The DILIN probability scale indicates the drug was a determined cause for injury throughout at least one case, proving \u201cvery likely\u201d in an additional 21 cases and \u201cprobable\u201d throughout the remaining 12 cases.
