Abstract
Increased antibiotic use and antibiotic homogeneity cause selective pressure. This study investigated the correlation between antibiotic diversity and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in Gram-negative organisms. The days of therapy/100 patient-days (DOT) for four broad-spectrum antibiotic classes were evaluated for 2015-2022. The antibiotic heterogeneity index (AHI) for the equal use of four classes (25%) and the modified AHI for the equal use of three classes (30%), excluding fluoroquinolones (10%), were measured (target: 1.0). Quarterly antibiotic use markers and the resistance rates against ≥2 anti-Pseudomonas antibiotics were compared. The DOT value was 9.94, and the relative DOT were 34.8% for carbapenems, 32.1% for piperacillin/tazobactam, 24.3% for fourth generation cephalosporins/ceftazidime/aztreonam, and 8.9% for fluoroquinolones. Although no correlation was found between the total DOT and the resistance rate for any bacterium, a significant negative correlation was found between the heterogeneity indices and resistance rates for Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Klebsiella pneumoniae. The significant cutoffs that discriminate the risk of resistance were 0.756 for the AHI and 0.889 for the modified AHI for K. pneumoniae. Antibiotic diversity is more important in preventing AMR than overall antibiotic use. The ideal ratio of broad-spectrum antibiotics should be studied for diversified use to prevent AMR.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Because of its lower risk of renal toxicity than vancomycin, teicoplanin is the preferred treatment for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus infection in patients undergoing continuous venovenous haemodiafiltration (CVVHDF) in whom renal function is expected to recover. The dosing regimen for achieving a trough concentration (Cmin) of ≥20 μg/mL remains unclear in patients on CVVHDF using the low flow rate adopted in Japan. METHODS The study was conducted in patients undergoing CVVHDF with a flow rate of <20 mg/kg/h who were treated with teicoplanin. We adopted three loading dose regimens for the initial 3 days: the conventional regimen, a high-dose regimen (four doses of 10 mg/kg), and an enhanced regimen (four doses of 12 mg/kg). The initial Cmin was obtained at 72 h after the first dose. RESULTS Overall, 60 patients were eligible for study inclusion. The proportion of patients achieving the Cmin target was significantly higher for the enhanced regimen than for the high-dose regimen (52.9% versus 8.3%, p = 0.003). In multivariate analysis, the enhanced regimen (odds ratio [OR] = 39.93, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 5.03-317.17) and hypoalbuminaemia (OR = 0.04, 95% CI = 0.01-0.44) were independent predictors of the achievement of Cmin ≥ 20 μg/mL. CONCLUSIONS An enhanced teicoplanin regimen was proposed to treat complicated or invasive infections by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in patients receiving CVVHDF even with a low flow rate.

Abstract
Background A trough concentration (Cmin) ≥20 μg/mL of teicoplanin is recommended for the treatment of serious methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections. However, sufficient clinical evidence to support the efficacy of this target Cmin has not been obtained. Even though the recommended high Cmin of teicoplanin was associated with better clinical outcome, reaching the target concentration is challenging. Methods Pharmacokinetics and adverse events were evaluated in all eligible patients. For clinical efficacy, patients who had bacteremia/complicated MRSA infections were analyzed. The primary endpoint for clinical efficacy was an early clinical response at 72–96 h after the start of therapy. Five dosed of 12 mg/kg or 10 mg/kg was administered as an enhanced or conventional high loading dose regimen, respectively. The Cmin was obtained at 72 h after the first dose. Results Overall, 512 patients were eligible, and 76 patients were analyzed for treatment efficacy. The proportion of patients achieving the target Cmin range (20–40 μg/mL) by the enhanced regimen was significantly higher than for the conventional regimen (75.2% versus 41.0%, p < 0.001). In multivariate analysis, Cmin ≥ 20 μg/mL was an independent factor for an early clinical response (odds ratio 3.95, 95% confidence interval 1.25–12.53). There was no significant difference in the occurrence of adverse events between patients who did or did not achieve a Cmin ≥ 20 μg/mL. Conclusion A target Cmin ≥ 20 μg/mL might improve early clinical responses during the treatment of difficult MRSA infections using 12 mg/kg teicoplanin for five doses within the initial 3 days.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate laparoscopic adnexal cystectomy during pregnancy using an open technique with a whole abdominal wall-lift method under epidural anesthesia. STUDY DESIGN Seven cases of adnexal cysts during pregnancy were resected using a gasless laparoscopic (extracorporeal) method with a whole abdominal wall-lift. We performed this procedure without using general anesthesia or CO2 pneumoperitoneum. RESULTS All operations were performed successfully without complications. All patients resumed normal activity within one week. The subsequent antenatal courses of the patients were uneventful. There were no severe complications during the operations or postoperative courses. Six patients had vaginal deliveries of normal infants at term. No abnormal findings were found in the antenatal course of patient 7 until 30 weeks of gestation. CONCLUSION Based on our limited experience, this procedure may be safe.

Abstract
DNA conferring resistance to new quinolone antimicrobial agents (NQR) in clinical isolates of Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS), S. epidermidis and S. haemolyticus, was analyzed after cloning in Escherichia coli. The NQR phenotypes were expressed in E. coli at lower levels. NQR gene(s)-carring HindIII fragments were very similar to each other among S. aureus or CNS, although the S. aureus fragments differed from the CNS fragments in terms of the NQR phenotypes and restriction endonuclease maps. The data suggest the possibility that the NQR genes have disseminated in evolutionarily distinct routes among S. aureus and CNS.
