Most hospitals use electronic health records (EHR) to warn health care professionals of drug hypersensitivity (DH) and other allergies. Indiscriminate recording of patient self-reported allergies may bloat the alert system, leading to unjustified avoidances and increases in health costs. The aim of our study was to analyze hypersensitivities documented in EHR of patients at Lausanne University Hospital (CHUV).

For patients with corticosteroid (CS)-refractory immune checkpoint inhibitor–related cholangiohepatitis (irCH), no consensus exists regarding treatment, and outcomes remain poor. We evaluated the possibility of personalized treatment according to the patient’s cytokine profile and the immunohistopathologic assessment of the predominant immune infiltrate type of liver tissue.
