Selected comorbidities and the probability of ART switch in PWH with undetectable HIV-RNA: a retrospective analysis in Italy.

The Journal of antimicrobial chemotherapy
OBJECTIVES: To estimate the incidence of comorbidities in persons with HIV (PWH) with a stable viral load (VL) of ≤50 copies/mL and evaluate the likelihood of treatment switch (TS) according to the new development of dyslipidaemia (DP), kidney diseas...

GP or ChatGPT? Ability of large language models (LLMs) to support general practitioners when prescribing antibiotics.

The Journal of antimicrobial chemotherapy
INTRODUCTION: Large language models (LLMs) are becoming ubiquitous and widely implemented. LLMs could also be used for diagnosis and treatment. National antibiotic prescribing guidelines are customized and informed by local laboratory data on antimic...

Machine learning for adverse event prediction in outpatient parenteral antimicrobial therapy: a scoping review.

The Journal of antimicrobial chemotherapy
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to conduct a scoping review of machine learning (ML) techniques in outpatient parenteral antimicrobial therapy (OPAT) for predicting adverse outcomes and to evaluate their validation, implementation and potential barriers ...

Prediction of teicoplanin plasma concentration in critically ill patients: a combination of machine learning and population pharmacokinetics.

The Journal of antimicrobial chemotherapy
BACKGROUND: Teicoplanin has been widely used in patients with infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus, especially for critically ill patients. The pharmacokinetics (PK) of teicoplanin vary between individuals and within the same individual. We aim...

Robotic Antimicrobial Susceptibility Platform (RASP): a next-generation approach to One Health surveillance of antimicrobial resistance.

The Journal of antimicrobial chemotherapy
BACKGROUND: Surveillance of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is critical to reducing its wide-reaching impact. Its reliance on sample size invites solutions to longstanding constraints regarding scalability. A robotic platform (RASP) was developed for ...

Supervised machine learning for the prediction of infection on admission to hospital: a prospective observational cohort study.

The Journal of antimicrobial chemotherapy
BACKGROUND: Infection diagnosis can be challenging, relying on clinical judgement and non-specific markers of infection. We evaluated a supervised machine learning (SML) algorithm for diagnosing bacterial infection using routinely available blood par...
