Contraindicated drug–drug interactions and associated adverse drug reactions in an observational cohort study of 4543 paediatric hospitalized patients

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Drug–drug interactions (DDIs) are associated with an increased risk of adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Hospitalized children are particularly vulnerable to DDIs and ADRs due to polypharmacy, frequent use of unlicensed or off‐label medications, and dosing regimens often extrapolated from adult data.

Mycobacterial Aminoglycoside Acetyltransferases: A Little of Drug Resistance, and a Lot of Other Roles

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Aminoglycoside acetyltransferases are important determinants of resistance to aminoglycoside antibiotics in most bacterial genera. In mycobacteria, however, aminoglycoside acetyltransferases contribute only partially to aminoglycoside susceptibility ...

The Interplay of Dispersion and Thermal Shock in Pseudomonas Aeruginosa Biofilms

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pathological bacterial biofilms formed on medical implants pose a significant challenge in clinical settings due to their resistance to antibiotics and the host immune response. Eradication of these biofilms by thermal shock has gained increasing attention as a means of eliminating these infections.

Reappraisal of Contemporary Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Principles for Informing Aminoglycoside Dosing

open access: yesPharmacotherapy, 2018
Therapeutic drug management is regularly performed for aminoglycosides in an effort to maximize their effectiveness and safety. The ratio of maximum plasma drug concentration to minimum inhibitory concentration (Cmax/MIC) has long been regarded as the ...

Restrictive antibiotic stewardship associated with reduced hospital mortality in gram-negative infection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Introduction: Antimicrobial stewardship has an important role in the control of Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) and antibiotic resistance. An important component of UK stewardship interventions is the restriction of broad-spectrum beta-lactam ...

Highly Potent Fluorogenic Ligands for Triplex DNA: 5‐Substituted 2‐(Naphthalen‐2‐yl)‐4H‐Chromen‐4‐Ones

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
5‐Substituted 2‐(naphthalen‐2‐yl)‐4H‐chromen‐4‐ones are reported as a novel class of highly potent and selective triplex DNA ligands. These ligands induce triplex formation at submicromolar concentrations and inhibit enzymatic activity via ligand‐mediated triplex formation.

A Systematic Review of Single-Dose Aminoglycoside Therapy for Urinary Tract Infection: Is It Time To Resurrect an Old Strategy?

open access: yesAntimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2018
Increasing bacterial resistance and poor patient adherence rates limit the effectiveness of conventional antibiotic therapies for urinary tract infection (UTI).

Compounding Effects of Climate Warming and Antibiotic Resistance. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Bacteria have evolved diverse mechanisms to survive environments with antibiotics. Temperature is both a key factor that affects the survival of bacteria in the presence of antibiotics and an environmental trait that is drastically increasing due to ...

Drug Critical Limits for Urgent Physician Notification

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Critical limits represent quantitative decision thresholds for drugs that require immediate clinician notification and potential life‐saving intervention. United States hospitals lack a national standard for drug critical limits. We collected critical limits from 417 US hospitals across all 50 states and Washington, D.C.; of these, 411 maintained drug ...
