Inclusion, diversity, access, and equity in antimicrobial stewardship: where we are and where we are headed.

Purpose Of Review: This review summarizes existing data on health inequities in antimicrobial stewardship, identifies data gaps and barriers, and reflects on mitigating factors for achieving inclusion, diversity, access, and equity in antimicrobial stewardship.

Recent Findings: Studies show variable antimicrobial prescribing patterns and adverse events according to race/ethnicity, rurality, socioeconomic status, and other factors. Most studies demonstrating these inequities typically do not address their upstream drivers or interventions to mitigate them.

Aeromonas hydrophila Community-Acquired Bacterial Pneumonia With Septic Shock in a Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia Patient Due to Absolute Neutropenia and Lymphopenia.

is a gram-negative (GN) bacillus with an opportunistic potential in immunocompromised patients. They are ubiquitary in fresh and brackish water capable of infecting healthy and immunosuppressed patients. Clinical manifestations vary in healthy hosts compared to immunocompromised patients.

Acute Pneumocystis jirovecii Pneumonia Due to Absolute Lymphopenia.

pneumonia (PCP) is an opportunistic fungal infection associated with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection as an acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)-defining illness. The PCP incidence in patients with HIV has declined over the last few decades due to effective antiretroviral therapy and prophylaxis. The PCP incidence in HIV-negative patients has increased due to the increasing use of a wide array of immunosuppressants in cancer and autoimmune disease.

Streptococcus constellatus Left Ventricular Apical Mural Infective Endocarditis With Acute Stroke, Septic and Cardiogenic Shock.

Infective endocarditis (IE) is a severe infection of the endocardium and cardiac valves by multiple etiologic agents. Clinical presentation can be acute or subacute based on the host immunity and the causative agent's virulence. Although are responsible for most community-acquired native valve bacterial IE, is an infrequent cause.

Bone marrow adipose tissue does not express UCP1 during development or adrenergic-induced remodeling.

Adipocytes within the skeleton are collectively termed bone marrow adipose tissue (BMAT). BMAT contributes to peripheral and local metabolism, however, its capacity for cell-autonomous expression of uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1), a biomarker of beige and brown adipogenesis, remains unclear. To overcome this, Ucp1-Cre was used to drive diphtheria toxin expression in cells expressing UCP1 (Ucp1).
