Beyond PEGylation: Archaeal Lipids for Long‐Circulating Liposomes
Archaeal lipid‐based liposomes, particularly those containing caldarchaeol (GDGT), were found to significantly prolong the circulation time of vancomycin in rats, matching the pharmacokinetic properties of PEGylated systems. These findings suggest archaeal lipids as promising non‐PEG excipients for parenteral applications to minimize drug clearance ...

Vancomycin dosing design method considering risk factors for nephrotoxicity
Background Vancomycin (VCM) induces nephrotoxicity in a dose-dependent manner, and patients with risk factors for nephrotoxicity have been reported to develop nephrotoxicity even within the effective concentration range.

Restrictive antibiotic stewardship associated with reduced hospital mortality in gram-negative infection [PDF]
Introduction: Antimicrobial stewardship has an important role in the control of Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) and antibiotic resistance. An important component of UK stewardship interventions is the restriction of broad-spectrum beta-lactam ...

Risk factors for cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity and potential of magnesium supplementation for renal protection. [PDF]
Nephrotoxicity remains a problem for patients who receive cisplatin chemotherapy. We retrospectively evaluated potential risk factors for cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity as well as the potential impact of intravenous magnesium supplementation on such ...

Optimizing Vancomycin Dosing in Chronic Kidney Disease by Deriving and Implementing a Web-Based Tool Using a Population Pharmacokinetics Analysis. [PDF]
Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients requiring intravenous vancomycin bear considerable risks of adverse outcomes both from the infection and vancomycin therapy itself, necessitating especially precise dosing to avoid sub- and ...

Objective Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) shows clinical and molecular heterogeneity, and cardiovascular (CV) complications and lupus nephritis (LN) remain leading causes of morbidity and mortality. This study investigated whether omic profiling can reveal molecular endotypes linked to these outcomes.
