The Effect of Dalbavancin in Moderate to Severe Hidradenitis Suppurativa
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized by painful nodules, abscesses, and fistulas, localized to the areas of the folds where apocrine glands are present: the armpits, groin, inframammary region, and genital or

The activity of glycopeptide antibiotics against resistant bacteria correlates with their ability to induce the resistance system. [PDF]
Glycopeptide antibiotics containing a hydrophobic substituent display the best activity against vancomycin-resistant enterococci, and they have been assumed to be poor inducers of the resistance system.
