Improved diagnosis of pleural tuberculosis using the microscopic- observation drug-susceptibility technique.

, 2008
Tests for pleural tuberculosis are insensitive and expensive. We compared nonproprietary microscopic-observation drug-susceptibility (MODS) culture with Löwenstein-Jensen culture for evaluation of pleural specimens.

Assessing transporter‐mediated rifampin–linezolid interaction using physiologically‐based pharmacokinetic modelling

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, Volume 92, Issue 6, Page 1845-1856, June 2026.
Abstract Aims The study aims to develop a physiologically‐based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model to quantitatively evaluate the role of ATP‐binding cassette sub‐family B member 1 (ABCB1) and ATP‐binding cassette super‐family G member 2 (ABCG2) in the drug–drug interaction (DDI) between rifampin and linezolid and to predict the impact of high‐dose rifampin ...
