ARC in Critical Ill OLT Recipients: True Prevalence, Risk Factors, and Impact on Early Aggressive PK/PD Target Non‐Attainment of CI Beta‐Lactam Therapy for Posttransplant Gram‐Negative Infections

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
Augmented renal clearance (ARC) represents a quite prevalent condition among critical orthotopic liver transplant recipients (23.2%). ARC is associated with different demographics and clinical features and significantly affects the attainment of aggressive beta‐lactams pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic targets despite the administration of standard ...

Resistance to Ceftazidime/Avibactam Plus Meropenem/Vaborbactam When Both are Used Together Achieved in Four Steps from Metallo-β-Lactamase Negative <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i>. [PDF]

, 2020
Serine β-lactamases are dominant causes of β-lactam resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae. Recently, this has driven clinical deployment of the β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitor pairs ceftazidime/avibactam and meropenem/vaborbactam.

Early Experience With Meropenem-Vaborbactam for Treatment of Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae Infections [PDF]

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2019
AbstractTwenty patients with carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae infections were treated with meropenem-vaborbactam. Thirty-day clinical success and survival rates were 65% (13/20) and 90% (18/20), respectively. Thirty-five percent of patients had microbiologic failures within 90 days.

Microbial Etiology and Antimicrobial Resistance in Pneumonia Among Hospitalized Patients in Kazakhstan: A Systematic Review and Single‐Arm Meta‐Analysis of Prevalence Data

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Pneumonia is an inflammatory condition of the lower respiratory tract, commonly caused by infection and associated with substantial morbidity and healthcare utilization. The burden of pneumonia on healthcare is exacerbated by limited data on pathogenic causes and associated antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Here, we conducted
