Simulated Intravenous versus Inhaled Tobramycin with or without Intravenous Ceftazidime Evaluated against Hypermutable Pseudomonas aeruginosa via a Dynamic Biofilm Model and Mechanism-Based Modeling

Hajira Bilal et al.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of intravenous versus inhaled tobramycin in the treatment of acute exacerbations of chronic respiratory infections in cystic fibrosis patients. The results showed that combination therapy was more effective in killing bacterial strains and reducing antibiotic resistance compared to monotherapy. In particular, the combination of inhaled tobramycin with ceftazidime showed the best treatment outcome.

Penetration of Antibacterial Agents into Pulmonary Epithelial Lining Fluid: An Update

Emily N. Drwiega et al.

Summary: The review summarizes studies on drug penetration into pulmonary epithelial lining fluid, focusing on comparisons of plasma and ELF concentrations of antibacterial agents in healthy adult subjects and critically ill patients. The significance of changes in intrapulmonary penetration and the need for further studies relating ELF concentrations to clinical response are highlighted. Studies are warranted to evaluate the relationship between intrapulmonary penetration and clinical and microbiological outcomes in critically ill patients with lower respiratory tract infections.

Predicting Pseudomonas aeruginosa susceptibility phenotypes from whole genome sequence resistome analysis

Sara Cortes-Lara et al.

Summary: This study developed and validated a genotypic resistance score for Pseudomonas aeruginosa based on analysis of whole genome sequence resistome, showing good prediction of antimicrobial susceptibility phenotypes. Although the system performed well in predicting susceptibility, the accuracy in predicting resistance varied among different agents, indicating the necessity for further refinement and testing.
