Article Abstract
Days of Antibiotic Spectrum Coverage (DASC) is a novel metric assessing antibiotic use in stewardship. This study evaluated its validity by comparing ASC scores with Japanese pharmacists' evaluations. Discrepancies in ASC scores for some antimicrobial agents indicate that local adjustments are needed to enhance clinical relevance and acceptability.

Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Medicine, Toronto General Hospital, University of Toronto, University Health Network, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Background: Intravenous lipid emulsions are a key component of parenteral nutrition, and their fatty acid compositions may influence immune responses and clinical outcomes.
Methods: This retrospective cohort study conducted from January 2020 to December 2022 compared clinical outcomes of hospitalized non-critical care patients receiving parenteral nutrition with either mixed oil or soybean oil lipid emulsions for at least 48 h. The primary outcome was a composite of the presence of pneumonia, urinary tract infection, or an intra-abdominal collection diagnosed within 14 days of initiating parenteral nutrition.

Vancomycin is one of the most commonly used parenteral antibiotics for treating drug-resistant bacterial infections, however, it is hindered by nephrotoxicity. We previously demonstrated that zileuton could delay the onset of vancomycin-associated nephrotoxicity in rats. Here, we sought to understand the mechanism(s) of zileuton renal protection.

Objectives: The usage of cephalosporins (CEFs) and co-existence of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) gene bla in the same host may promote the prevalence of colistin (CST) resistance gene mcr-1. This study aims to investigate the underlying mechanisms how the mcr-1 and bla demonstrate significant co-occurrence in Escherichia coli (E. coli).
