Introduction: Tedizolid is a novel antibiotic of the class ofoxazolidinones. This review evaluates the published literature on the optic andperipheral neuropathy associated with short and prolonged administration oftedizolid.
Areas Covered: A review of published data from 4 databases was conducted,regarding the development of optic and peripheral neuropathy in patients whoreceived tedizolid for short or prolonged duration. A total of 1,212 records werescreened; 33 were included in this review. No peripheral or optic neuropathycases were reported in 7 randomized controlled trials that studied tedizoliduse for a short course. In contrast, 2 cases with optic neuropathy (1 notsupported by objective findings) in 87 patients of the prospective studies wereidentified. Additionally, in a total of 277 patients who participated in the 6retrospective studies, 9 adverse events related to optic or peripheralneuropathy and 1 case with foot drop in 22 patients of the relevant casesreports were recorded.
Expert Opinion: The available data suggests that the safety profile oftedizolid is favorable, especially when given for a short time. However, moreclinical studies are needed regarding its long-term use, given that the neurotoxicityinduced by oxazolidinones may be time and dose-dependent.

Hemodynamic stabilization is crucial in managing acute cardiac events, where compromised blood flow can lead to severe complications and increased mortality. Conditions like decompensated heart failure (HF) and cardiogenic shock require rapid and effective hemodynamic support. Current mechanical assistive devices, such as intra-aortic balloon pumps (IABP) and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), offer temporary stabilization but are limited to short-term use due to risks associated with prolonged blood contact.

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a multifaceted psychiatric disorder triggered by traumatic events, leading to prolonged psychological distress and varied symptoms. Rat models have been extensively used to explore the biological, behavioral, and neurochemical underpinnings of PTSD. This review critically examines the strengths and limitations of commonly used rat models, such as single prolonged stress (SPS), stress-re-stress (S-R), and predator-based paradigms, in replicating human PTSD pathology.

African rhinoceros undergo chemical immobilization and prolonged transport during translocations for conservation purposes and, hence, experience several pathophysiologic changes, including skeletal muscle injury. Potential concurrent myocardial injury has not been investigated due to a lack of validated immunoassays. We aimed to use inferred cardiac troponin I (cTnI) amino acid sequences of southern white () and southern-central black () rhinoceros to assess the potential usefulness of several commercial cTnI immunoassays for detecting cTnI in African rhinoceros.

Objectives: To investigate the efficacy and safety of prolonged azithromycin (PAZM) versus switching to doxycycline (SDXC) in the treatment of macrolide-unresponsive pneumonia (MUMPP) in children.
Methods: A total of 173 children with MUMPP who were hospitalized in Baoji Central Hospital, from January to December 2023 were selected as subjects. According to the choice of secondary antibiotic after 72 hours of initial macrolide therapy, they were divided into two groups: PAZM and SDXC.
