Abstract

Fructus Psoraleae (FP) is used by herbalists for the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis, vitiligo, and psoriasis. It is used alone, or in combination with other herbs, in some countries in the form of proprietary medicine. It is recognized as one of the emerging hepatotoxins and here we report three cases of acute hepatitis after exposed to FP and its related proprietary medicine. It seems possible that psoralen and its related chemicals may be responsible for the hepatotoxicity. Decoction with other herbs may result in higher concentration of toxic constituents and in more severe liver injury. In summary, FP is associated with hepatotoxicity in some individuals. Pharmacovigilance for the potential side effects of herbal products is necessary.

  • Starting as early as 2006 with an analysis from Hong Kong, an overall 21 reports of HILI cases were published which had been assessed for causality using RUCAM with results presented by groups with first authors having their working place in mainland China, Hong Kong, or Taiwan.

    “Starting as early as 2006 with an analysis from Hong Kong,18 an overall 21 reports of HILI cases were published which had been assessed for causality using RUCAM with results presented by groups with first authors having their working place in mainland China, Hong Kong, or Taiwan.18–38”
  • There is now increasing awareness of the benefits provided by RUCAM among various countries, including China, Korea, and Singapore, as evidenced by reports initially published in 2004 from Korea and in 2006 from China and Singapore, with subsequent articles.

  • On top among the Asian countries is currently China, best explained by the large population and heavy use of herbal traditional Chinese medicines, with increasing numbers of publications and cases until 2019.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
