Dose rationale for the use of meropenem/vaborbactam combination in paediatric patients with Gram-negative bacterial infections.

Aims: Meropenem/vaborbactam combination is approved in adults by FDA and EMA for complicated urinary tract infections and by EMA also for other Gram-negative infections. We aimed to characterise the pharmacokinetics of both moieties in an ongoing study in children and use a model-based approach to inform adequate dosing regimens in paediatric patients.

Methods: Over 4196 blood samples of meropenem and vaborbactam (n = 414 subjects) in adults, together with 114 blood samples (n = 39) in paediatric patients aged 3 months to 18 years were available for this analysis.

American Society of Nephrology Kidney Tutored Research and Education for Kidney Scholars (TREKS) Program: A 10-Year Interim Analysis.

In response to decreasing numbers of individuals entering into nephrology fellowships, the American Society of Nephrology launched Kidney Tutored Research and Education for Kidney Scholars (TREKS) to stimulate interest in nephrology among medical students, graduate students, and postdoctoral fellows. The program combines a 1-week intensive exposure to kidney physiology with a longitudinal mentorship program at the participants' home institutions. Ten years in, an analysis was conducted to assess its effectiveness.

A Systematic Review of Dietary Interventions for Cancer Survivors and Their Families or Caregivers.

Family or caregiver engagement has the potential to support healthy dietary changes among cancer survivors. However, little is known about these family- or caregiver-involved dietary interventions and their effects. This systematic review aimed to identify the behavior change techniques (BCTs) used in dietary interventions for cancer survivors and their families or caregivers and to synthesize intervention effects on dietary and health outcomes.
