Abstract
Purpose Since the introduction of ceftazidime-avibactam (CZA) in the Chinese market, accumulating clinical evidence has substantiated its efficacy in the treatment of infections caused by carbapenem-resistant gram-negative bacteria (CR-GNB). Nevertheless, an ongoing debate persists concerning the choice between monotherapy and combination therapy when devising clinical anti-infection protocols. Patients and Methods This retrospective, single-center observational study enrolled patients with CR-GNB infections who received CZA treatment between December 2019 and August 2023. The primary outcome assessed was 30-day mortality, and the secondary outcome measured was 14-day bacterial clearance. A multivariate Cox regression model was used to identify variables that were independently associated with 30-day mortality rate. Results Eighty-three patients were enrolled in the study; of which, 45 received CZA monotherapy, whereas 38 received combination therapy. The overall 30-day mortality rate was 31.3%, and no significant difference was observed in the 30-day mortality rates between the CZA combination therapy and monotherapy groups (31.6% vs 31.1%, p=0.963). After adjustment by propensity score matching, the 30-day mortality rate was not significantly different between the two groups (28.6% vs 31.4%, p=0.794). Multivariate COX analysis revealed that age and SOFA score were independent predictors of 30-day mortality. Conclusion Combination therapy with CZA and other antimicrobials was not found to have an advantage over monotherapy in reducing the 30-day mortality rate.

Abstract
Donor-derived infections (DDIs) caused by carbapenem-resistant gram-negative bacteria (CR-GNB) in solid organ transplant recipients are potentially life-threatening. In this prospective study, we evaluated the incidence, factors associated with transmission, and the outcome of recipients with unexpected CR-GNB DDIs after the implementation of our local active surveillance system (LASS). LASS provides for early detection of unexpected donor CR-GNB infections, prophylaxis of recipients at high risk, and early diagnosis and treatment of DDIs. Whole genome sequencing confirmed DDI. Among 791 recipients, 38 (4.8%) were at high risk of unexpected CR-GNB DDI: 25 for carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) and 13 for carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB). Transmission did not occur in 27 (71%) cases, whereas DDIs occurred in 9 of 25 of CRE and 2 of 13 of CRAB cases. Incidence of CR-GNB DDI was 1.4%. Recipients of organs with CR-GNB-positive preservation fluid and liver recipients from a donor with CRE infection were at the highest risk of DDI. There was no difference in length of hospital stay or survival in patients with and without CR-GNB DDI. Our LASS contains transmission and mitigates the negative impacts of CR-GNB DDI. Under well-defined conditions, organs from donors with CR-GNB may be considered after a thorough evaluation of the risk/benefit profile.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The production of metallo-β-lactamases is a major mechanisms adopted by bacterial pathogens to resist carbapenems. Repurposing approved drugs to restore the efficacy of carbapenems represents an efficient and cost-effective approach to fight infections caused by carbapenem resistant pathogens. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH The nitrocefin hydrolysis assay was employed to screen potential New Delhi metallo-lactamase-1 (NDM-1) inhibitors from a commercially available U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved drug library. The mechanism of inhibition was clarified by metal restoration, inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) and molecular dynamics simulation. The in vitro synergistic antibacterial effect of the identified inhibitors with meropenem was determined by the checkerboard minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) assay, time-dependent killing assay and combined disc test. Three mouse infection models were used to further evaluate the in vivo therapeutic efficacy of combined therapy. KEY RESULTS Twelve FDA-approved compounds were initially screened to inhibit the ability of NDM-1 to hydrolyse nitrocefin. Among these compounds, dexrazoxane, embelin, candesartan cilexetil and nordihydroguaiaretic acid were demonstrated to inhibit all tested metallo-β-lactamases and showed an in vitro synergistic bactericidal effect with meropenem against metallo-β-lactamases-producing bacteria. Dexrazoxane, embelin and candesartan cilexetil are metal ion chelating agents, while the inhibition of NDM-1 by nordihydroguaiaretic acid involves its direct binding to the active region of NDM-1. Furthermore, these four drugs dramatically rescued the treatment efficacy of meropenem in three infection models. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS Our observations indicated that dexrazoxane, embelin, candesartan cilexetil and nordihydroguaiaretic acid are promising carbapenem adjuvants against metallo-β-lactamases-positive carbapenem resistant bacterial pathogens.

Abstract
Background Carbapenem-resistant gram-negative bacterial (CRGNB) infections are increasing among kidney transplant recipients, and effective therapeutic options are limited. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy and adverse events associated with combination therapy tigecycline in renal transplant patients with CRGNB infections. Methods This study retrospectively analyzed 40 Chinese patients with confirmed or suspected CRGNB infections who received tigecycline therapy. The patients' case features and clinical and microbiological data were analyzed. Results A total of 40 renal transplant recipients received tigecycline therapy for a median duration of 9 (range, 3-25) days. CRGNB isolates were obtained from the organ preservation solution of the donor kidney in 28 patients, with confirmed transmission in 4 patients. Infections were detected in the bloodstream, urinary tract, sputum, and wound. The most prevalent isolates were Klebsiella pneumoniae (75%, 30/40), Acinetobacter baumannii (15%, 6/40), and Escherichia coli (10%, 4/40). A clinical response was observed in 32 (80%) patients. The 28-day all-cause mortality rate was 7.5% (3/40), while the one-year all-cause mortality rate was 2.5% (1/40). While one patient died owing to severe pancreatitis, no serious adverse events related to tigecycline therapy were reported. However, multiple indices of liver function and pancreatitis precursors increased after treatment with tigecycline compared to before treatment. Conclusion Tigecycline therapy appears to be well tolerated in renal transplant recipients with multidrug-resistant bacterial infections. Nevertheless, attention should be paid to adverse reactions related to tigecycline therapy, especially gastrointestinal reactions, and the related laboratory tests should be closely monitored.

Abstract
Purpose Ceftazidime-avibactam (C-A) is a treatment option for carbapenem-resistant gram-negative bacterial (CR-GNB) infections, but little is known regarding its suitability for the intensive care unit (ICU). The current study aimed to analyze use of C-A for critically ill patients, determine independent predictors of clinical outcome and mortality and explore routine dosages for patients in continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). Patients and Methods A single-center, retrospective and observational study was conducted in critically ill patients receiving different C-A-based therapies for CR-GNB infections in a tertiary teaching hospital in Beijing, China. Demographic data, severity of infection, clinical outcomes and mortality were assessed. The primary and secondary outcome of this study was 90-day all-cause mortality and 14-day clinical response, respectively. Results A total of 43 patients with CR-GNB infection were enrolled, including 14 (32.6%) patients received C-A monotherapy. C-A monotherapy and combination with other agents did not affect 14-day clinical response or 90-day survival. All-cause mortality at 90-days was 39.5% (17/43). Multivariate Cox analysis showed that concomitant with bloodstream infection was independent risk factors for 90-day mortality and that the time to initiation of C-A and Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) score was independent predictors of 14-day clinical response. Five CRRT patients who received high-dose C-A therapy (>3.75 g/d) had prolonged survival compared with 5 who received low-dose C-A (<3.75 g/d, p = 0.03). Conclusion C-A was an effective therapy for severe CR-GNB infections and clinical response correlated with the time of C-A initiation. A dosage >3.75g/d C-A was associated with prolonged survival of CRRT patients. Randomized controlled trials or multicenter studies are needed to confirm these findings.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare the effectiveness of ceftazidime/avibactam (CAZ/AVI) and polymyxin B against carbapenem-resistant gram-negative bacteria (CRGNB) infections in western China. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients with CRGNB infections from 2018 to 2022 in our hospital. The data included demographic characteristics, laboratory results, antibiotic strategies and clinical outcomes. RESULTS A total of 378 patients with CRGNB infections were enrolled, including 112 patients in the CAZ/AVI group and 226 patients in the polymyxin B group. Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (44.44%) was the most common pathogen. The rates of treatment failure at 28 days (65.04% vs 45.54%, P=0.000) and 28-day in-hospital mortality (20.30% vs 9.82%, P=0.014) in the polymyxin B group were higher than those in the CAZ/AVI group. Multivariable analysis revealed that multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (OR = 2.730, P = 0.017), acute renal failure (OR = 2.595, P = 0.020), higher Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) (OR = 1.184, P = 0.011) and acute physiology and chronic health evaluation (APACHE) Ⅱ scores (OR = 1.149, P = 0.000) were independent risk factors for treatment failure, whereas CAZ/AVI therapy (OR = 0.333, P = 0.002) had a protective effect. Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that CCI≥5 and APACHE II scores≥15 were associated with a higher 28-day in-hospital mortality rate (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION CAZ/AVI therapy was associated with treatment success among patients with CRGNB infection. However, CAZ/AVI therapy did not improve 28-day in-hospital survival compared with polymyxin B. CCI≥5 and APACHE II scores≥15 affected 28-day in-hospital mortality of CRGNB-infected patients.

Abstract
In this study, we analyzed the antibiotic resistance of carbapenem-resistant gram-negative bacteria (CR-GNB) in intensive care unit (ICU) patients and developed a predictive model. We retrospectively collected the data of patients with GNB infection admitted to the ICU of the First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University, who were then divided into a CR and a carbapenem-susceptible (CS) group for CR-GNB infection analysis. Patients admitted between December 1, 2017, and July 31, 2019, were assigned to the experimental cohort (n = 205), and their data were subjected to multivariate logistic regression analysis to identify independent risk factors for constructing the nomogram-based predictive model. Patients admitted between August 1, 2019, and September 1, 2020, were assigned to the validation cohort for validating the predictive model (n = 104). The Hosmer-Lemeshow test and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis were used to validate the model's performance. Overall, 309 patients with GNB infection were recruited. Of them, 97 and 212 were infected with CS-GNB and CR-GNB, respectively. Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP), carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) and carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CRPA) were the most prevalent CR-GNB. The multivariate logistic regression analysis results of the experimental cohort revealed that a history of combination antibiotic treatments (OR: 3.197, 95% CI: 1.561-6.549), hospital-acquired infection (OR: 3.563, 95% CI: 1.062-11.959) and mechanical ventilation ≥ 7 days (OR: 5.096, 95% CI: 1.865-13.923) were independent risk factors for CR-GNB infection, which were then used for nomogram construction. The model demonstrated a good fit of observed data (p = 0.999), with an area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 0.753 (95% CI: 0.685-0.820) and 0.718 (95% CI: 0.619-0.816) for the experimental and validation cohort, respectively. The decision curve analysis results suggested that the model has a high practical value for clinical practice. The Hosmer-Lemeshow test indicated a good fit of the model in the validation cohort (p-value, 0.278). Overall, our proposed predictive model exhibited a good predictive value in identifying patients at high risk of developing CR-GNB infection in the ICU and could be used to guide preventive and treatment measures.

Abstract
Background Short-term readmission is an important outcome reflecting the poor trajectory of sepsis survivors. The aim of this study was to identify the major risk factors for 30-day readmission among patients with gram-negative bacteremia. Methods This was a retrospective cohort study including all consecutive adults hospitalized in the medical departments in a referral hospital in Israel with gram-negative bacteremia between 2011 and 2020, who were discharged alive. Predictors for 30-day readmission were investigated, considering death after discharge as a competing event. Cephalosporin resistance was our predictor of interest. Subdistribution hazard ratios (HRs) of the cumulative incidence function were investigated using the Fine and Gray multivariable competing-risk regression model. The prediction models were cross-validated using the k-fold method. Results Among 2196 patients surviving hospitalization with gram-negative bacteremia, the mean age was 70 ± 16 years and 432 (19.6%) were readmitted within 30 days. Variables associated with readmission hazards were Arab ethnicity, active malignancy, conditions requiring immunosuppression, anxiolytics or hypnotics, anticoagulant or antiplatelet therapy, discharge with a nasogastric tube, higher predischarge heart rate, duration of antibiotic therapy during hospitalization, and bacteremia caused by cephalosporin-resistant bacteria (HR, 1.23 [95% confidence interval {CI}, .99-1.52]). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for this model was 75.5% (95% CI, 71.3%-79.1%). In secondary models, cephalosporin resistance, inappropriate empirical antibiotic treatment, and lower predischarge albumin were significantly associated with readmission. Conclusions Thirty-day readmissions among patients with gram-negative bacteremia surviving the index admission were high. Readmission was related to comorbidities and infections caused by multidrug-resistant infections.Main point: Among 2196 adults surviving hospitalization with gram-negative bacteremia, 432 (19.6%) were rehospitalized within 30 days. Comorbidities, inappropriate empirical antibiotic treatment, bacteremia caused by cephalosporin-resistant bacteria, predischarge heart rate, and albumin were associated with readmissions.
