The Development of Rheumatoid Arthritis–Specific Ambulatory Care–Sensitive Conditions: Results of a Consensus Process

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Ambulatory care–sensitive conditions (ACSCs) serve as indicators of access, quality, and performance of the health system. This study aimed to determine rheumatoid arthritis (RA)‐specific ACSCs for use in the evaluation of care system access and quality.

Clinical and microbiological outcomes of maternal bacteremia: the role of intrapartum antibiotic use, insights from an 11-Year cohort study

The Journal of Maternal-Fetal & Neonatal Medicine
Objectives Maternal sepsis remains a leading cause of maternal mortality worldwide. However, it is unclear whether obstetrical, neonatal, and microbiological outcomes associated with maternal bacteremia differ based on the timing of bacteremia ...

Bacteroides Bacteremia

Annals of Surgery, 1977
When appropriate culture techniques are employed, Bacteroides bacteremia is found more frequently than might be expected and usually follows contamination from the gastrointestinal or genitourinary tracts. Survival is closely related to the extent of organ impiarment preceding the bacteremia.

Conjugated Porphyrin Polymer With Superior Charge Transfer for Photodynamic‐Immunomodulatory Prevention of CIED Infection in Diabetes

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Under NIR irradiation, PTCPP generates ROS to eliminate MRSA biofilms and promote M1 macrophage polarization for phagocytosis. After bacterial clearance, the material is phagocytosed by macrophages, shifting their polarization to M2 phenotype via metabolic reprogramming, which synergistically enhances anti‐infection therapy and wound healing.

Risk factors for and clinical outcomes of carbapenem non-susceptible gram negative bacilli bacteremia in patients with acute myelogenous leukemia

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2020
Background Carbapenem is frequently used when gram negative bacilli (GNB) bacteremia is detected especially in neutropenic patients. Consequently, appropriate treatment could be delayed in GNB bacteremia cases involving organisms which are not ...

Enhanced Antibacterial Properties of Lyotropic Liquid Crystalline Nanoparticles via Curvature Modulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Lipid nanostructured particles with increasing negative Gaussian curvature progress from vesicles to P‐cubosomes and D‐cubosomes. This curvature hierarchy enhances interaction with bacterial membranes, promotes membrane remodeling and leakage, and potentiates daptomycin activity against MRSA.

Anaerobic Bacteremia [PDF]

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1996
The results of early studies showed that anaerobes account for 20% of all bacteremias; more-recent data suggest that these organisms account for approximately 4% (0.5%-9%) of bacteremias ( or approximately one case per 1,000 admissions), with variation by geographic location, hospital patient demographics, and especially, patient age.
