Daptomycin is a concentration-dependent lipopeptide antibiotic for which exposure/effect relationships have been shown. Machine learning (ML) algorithms, developed to predict the individual exposure to drugs, have shown very good performances in comp...
BACKGROUND: Vancomycin is a renally eliminated, nephrotoxic, glycopeptide antibiotic with a narrow therapeutic window, widely used in intensive care units (ICU). We aimed to predict the risk of inappropriate vancomycin trough levels and appropriate d...
BACKGROUND: Machine learning may assist with the identification of potentially inappropriate penicillin allergy labels. Strategies to improve the performance of existing models for this task include the use of additional training data, synthetic data...
The emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria poses a huge threat to the treatment of infections. Antimicrobial peptides are a class of short peptides that widely exist in organisms and are considered as potential substitutes for traditional antibio...
A biofilm constitutes a bacterial community encased in a sticky matrix of extracellular polymeric substances. These intricate microbial communities adhere to various host surfaces such as hard and soft tissues as well as indwelling medical devices. T...
INTRODUCTION: Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are valuable alternatives to traditional antibiotics, possess a variety of potent biological activities and exhibit immunomodulatory effects that alleviate difficult-to-treat infections. Clarifying the stru...

BACKGROUND: With increasing antibiotic resistance and regulation, the issue of antibiotic combination has been emphasised. However, antibiotic combination prescribing lacks a rapid identification of feasibility, while its risk of drug interactions is...
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is nowadays a global health concern as bacterial pathogens are increasingly developing resistance to antibiotics. Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) represent a powerful tool for addressing AMR thanks to their high specificit...
