Do different adverse childhood experiences lead to specific symptoms of psychosis in adulthood? A systematic review of the current literature.

Previous research has demonstrated significant associations between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and risks of psychosis. Further research has examined underlying mechanisms to understand the relationship between these variables. This review aimed to explore the associations between various ACEs and the development of different psychotic symptoms in adulthood.

In vitro activity of meropenem and imipenem against mycobacteria: development of a daily antibiotic dosing schedule.

The activity of two carbapenem antibiotics, meropenem and imipenem, against Mycobacterium species was assessed by means of the Bactec 460 radiometric apparatus. This system allowed a result to be read in 4-10 days. The instability of imipenem, particularly, in the test system necessitated the development of a regimen of daily addition of antibiotic to permit a more accurate assessment of antibiotic activity to be made.

In vitro antibacterial activity of SM-7338, a carbapenem antibiotic with stability to dehydropeptidase I.

SM-7338, a new carbapenem antibiotic, was demonstrated to have potent antibacterial activity against a broad spectrum of aerobes, including Staphylococcus aureus, beta-hemolytic streptococci, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae, Neisseria spp., members of the family Enterobacteriaceae, Pseudomonas spp., and gram-positive and gram-negative anaerobes in a collection of 1,102 unselected clinical isolates.
