Central nervous system infection with Coccidioides spp. is fatal if untreated and complications occur even when therapy is directed by experienced clinicians. We convened a panel of clinicians experienced in the management of coccidioidal meningitis to summarize current controversies and provide consensus for the management of this difficult infection.

A 4-month regimen containing rifapentine and moxifloxacin has noninferior efficacy compared to the standard 6-month regimen for drug-sensitive tuberculosis. We evaluated the effect of regimens containing daily, high-dose rifapentine on efavirenz pharmacokinetics and viral suppression in patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-associated tuberculosis (TB).

Days of therapy (DOT), the most widely used benchmarking metric for antibiotic consumption, may not fully measure stewardship efforts to promote use of narrow-spectrum agents and may inadvertently discourage the use of combination regimens when single-agent alternatives have greater adverse effects. To overcome the limitations of DOT, we developed a novel metric, days of antibiotic spectrum coverage (DASC), and compared hospital performances using this novel metric with DOT.

Carriage studies are fundamental to assessing the effects of pneumococcal vaccines. Because a large proportion of oral streptococci carry homologues of pneumococcal genes, non–culture-based detection and serotyping of upper respiratory tract (URT) samples can be problematic. In the current study, we investigated whether culture-free molecular methods could differentiate pneumococci from oral streptococci carried by adults in the URT.

We report the emergence of imipenem-relebactam nonsusceptible Pseudomonas aeruginosa in 5 patients treated for nosocomial pneumonia for 10–28 days. Genome sequence analysis identified treatment-emergent mutations in MexAB-OprM and/or MexEF-OprN efflux operons that arose independently in each patient across distinct P. aeruginosa sequence types. Testing with efflux-inhibitor PAβN restored imipenem-relebactam susceptibility.

In-depth investigation confirmed a deficient capsule yet favored pneumococcal fitness for causing infective endocarditis, rather than a host immune disorder, as the cause of infective endocarditis in this case.

Respiratory syncytial virus is a seasonal virus affecting immunologically vulnerable populations, such as preterm newborns and young infants; however, its epidemiology has changed drastically during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic. In this perspective, we discuss the implications of coronavirus disease 2019 on respiratory syncytial virus seasonality patterns and mitigation efforts, as well as the urgent need for vaccination as a preventive tool.
