Efficacy of Ceftazidime-avibactam in treating Gram-negative infections: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Eur J Clin Microbiol Infect Dis
January 2025
University of Sassari, Sassari, Italy.
Introduction: Ceftazidime-avibactam (CAZ-AVI) has emerged as a promising treatment option for Gram-negative infections, particularly those caused by CAZ-Non-Susceptible (NS) pathogens. This systematic review and meta-analysis aim to assess the efficacy and safety of CAZ-AVI in these challenging infections.
Methods: We systematically queried EMBASE, Cochrane CENTRAL, and PubMed/Medline for studies published until September 15, 2024.
A rapid literature review of the impact of penicillin allergy on antibiotic resistance.
JAC Antimicrob Resist
February 2025
Department of Microbiology, Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, Leeds, UK.
Background: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is caused by the use and misuse of antibiotics. AMR is a global health concern, to which penicillin allergy (penA) labels appear to contribute. Patients who have penA labels are treated with non-penicillin antibiotics and receive more antibiotics when compared with patients without penA.

BMC Pediatr
January 2025
Department of Pediatrics and Child Health, Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, Stellenbosch University, Cape Town, South Africa.
Background And Objectives: Healthcare-associated infections (HAI) are a leading contributor to morbidity and mortality in hospitalised neonates. Diagnosing neonatal HAI is challenging owing to non-specific symptoms and lack of definitive diagnostic markers, contributing to high rates of inappropriate antibiotic use. This study evaluated the theoretical impact of implementing a bedside tool for decision-making on antibiotic length of therapy (LOT).

J Gen Intern Med
January 2025
Division of Hospital Medicine, Department of Internal Medicine, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI, USA.
Background: Many hospitals have implemented Discharge by Noon (DBN) programs to improve hospital throughput but have had mixed results.
Objective: Use a complex health intervention framework to define core functions and forms of DBN interventions.
Design: Qualitative study combined with scoping review.
Increased rate of multidrug-resistant gram-negative bacterial infections in hospitalized immunocompromised pediatric patients.
Front Cell Infect Microbiol
January 2025
Center for Infectious Diseases Research (CIDR) and WHO Collaborating Center for Reference and Research on Bacterial Pathogens, American University of Beirut, Beirut, Lebanon.
Introduction: Multidrug resistant Gram-negative bacterial infections are considered a major public health threat. Immunocompromised pediatric patients are at a great risk of severe or overwhelming infections. The aim of this study was to describe the frequency of infections with multidrug resistant (MDR) Gram-negative bacteria (GNB) in immunocompromised pediatric patients and to determine the risk factors.
