A Pragmatic Approach to Susceptibility Classification of Yeasts without EUCAST Clinical Breakpoints [PDF]
EUCAST has established clinical breakpoints for the six most common Candida species and Cryptococcus neoformans but not for less common yeasts because sufficient evidence is lacking. Consequently, the question “How to interpret the MIC?” for other yeasts

t(14;18)(q32;q21) translocation is an important genetic feature of follicular lymphoma resulting in antiapoptotic B-cell lymphoma 2 (BCL2) protein overexpression. On chromosome 18 breakpoint-site variation is high but does not affect BCL2.

Clinical Impact of Revised Ciprofloxacin Breakpoint in Patients with Urinary Tract Infections by Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]
In 2018, the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) revised ciprofloxacin (CIP)-susceptible breakpoint for Enterobacteriaceae from ≤1 μg/mL to ≤0.25 μg/mL, based on pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PK-PD) analysis.

Sequence homology at the breakpoint and clinical phenotype of mitochondrial DNA deletion syndromes. [PDF]
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) deletions are a common cause of mitochondrial disorders. Large mtDNA deletions can lead to a broad spectrum of clinical features with different age of onset, ranging from mild mitochondrial myopathies (MM), progressive external ...

Clinical Breakpoint of Apramycin to Swine Salmonella and Its Effect on Ileum Flora. [PDF]
The purpose of this study was to establish the clinical breakpoint (CBP) of apramycin (APR) against Salmonella in swine and evaluate its effect on intestinal microbiota. The CBP was established based on three cutoff values of wild-type cutoff value (COWT), pharmacokinetic-pharmadynamic (PK/PD) cutoff value (COPD) and clinical cutoff value (COCL).

Determination of Susceptibility Breakpoint for Cefquinome against Streptococcus suis in Pigs
Streptococcus suis (S. suis), a zoonotic pathogen, causes severe diseases in both pigs and human beings. Cefquinome can display excellent antibacterial activity against gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria.

Establishing Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing Methods and Clinical Breakpoints for Inhaled Antibiotic Therapy [PDF]
Abstract Inhaled antibiotics are a common and valuable therapy for patients suffering from chronic lung infection, with this particularly well demonstrated for patients with cystic fibrosis. However, in vitro tests to predict patient response to inhaled antibiotic therapy are currently lacking.
