Epicutaneous and Drug Provocation Testing in Severe Cutaneous Adverse Reactions: A 20‐Year Single‐Centre Experience

Contact Dermatitis, EarlyView.
This study provides reassuring evidence in favour of early skin testing in patients with SCARs, argues against the necessity of a 6‐month delay, and underscores the pivotal role of oral provocation tests in the safe reintroduction of essential therapies. ABSTRACT Background Identifying and discontinuing the offending drug(s) in severe cutaneous adverse

The Evaluation of Machine Learning Models Using Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) Spectra for the Prediction of Antibiotic Resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae. [PDF]

Microbiologyopen
Machine learning models developed from matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry spectra can rapidly predict antimicrobial resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae. By transforming routine spectral data into accurate resistance profiles within minutes, this approach could reduce diagnostic delays and support earlier ...

Development and implementation of a computerised clinical decision support system for hospital‐in‐the‐home patient identification

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Identification of appropriate patients for hospital‐in‐the‐home (HITH) remains a significant challenge. We hypothesise that a human‐centred design (HCD) approach can assist in developing a computerised clinical decision support system (CDSS) to address this issue via leveraging data within the electronic medical record (EMR).
