This review discusses the use of Surface‐Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) combined with Artificial Intelligence (AI) for detecting antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Various SERS studies used with AI techniques, including machine learning and deep learning, are analyzed for their advantages and limitations.

Vancomycin-Associated Tubular Casts and Vancomycin Nephrotoxicity [PDF]
Vancomycin nephrotoxicity is frequent and may be due to drug-induced acute tubular necrosis (ATN) or tubulointerstitial nephritis (TIN). Vancomycin-associated tubular cast (VTC) was recently described and may represent a novel cause of vancomycin nephrotoxicity. However, much is still unknown about VTC.Thirty-seven kidney biopsy specimens from patients

The Nephrotoxicity of Vancomycin [PDF]
Vancomycin use is often associated with nephrotoxicity. It remains uncertain, however, to what extent vancomycin is directly responsible, as numerous potential risk factors for acute kidney injury frequently coexist. Herein, we critically examine available data in adult patients pertinent to this question.

Evaluation of a vancomycin dosing nomogram in obese patients weighing at least 100 kilograms.
Background: There remains variability in both practice and evidence related to optimal initial empiric dosing strategies for vancomycin. Objective: Our primary objective was to describe the percentage of obese patients receiving vancomycin doses ...

Vancomycin became available for clinical use >50 years ago but was soon discarded in favor of other antibiotics that were deemed to be more efficacious and less toxic. The advent of pseudomembranous enterocolitis, coupled with the spread of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, led to a resurgence in the use of vancomycin.
