Abstract
With the escalating threat of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), discovering novel therapeutic agents against resistant pathogens like Staphylococcus aureus is crucial. This study explores phytochemicals from Syzygium cumini for their potential efficacy against AMR S. aureus infections, elucidating their mechanisms through in silico methods. We investigated 83 compounds from S. cumini, sourced from PubMed, using rigorous docking analysis against the ATP binding domain AgrC of S. aureus with AMdock with Autodock Vina v1.5.2. Drug-likeness predictions were assessed using SwissADME v2023 and Pass online v2.0. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations identified promising compounds, focusing on stability and interaction dynamics. Beta-Glucogallin (BEG) and Dihydro Dehydro Coniferyl alcohol (DIH) emerged as significant hits. MD simulations with GROMACS v2020.6 revealed stable BEG and DIH complexes with AgrC, forming six hydrogen bonds with six key amino acids (Arg-303, Asp-338, Glu-342, Glu-384, Lys-389, Gly-396), indicating strong and stable bonding. The binding affinities for DIH and BEG are -73.474 ± 11.104 kJ/mol and -6.319 ± 18.823 kJ/mol with 4BXI, respectively. Our findings highlight BEG and DIH as promising candidates against AMR S. aureus infections, showing favourable binding affinities and stable interactions with AgrC. This study underscores the importance of natural products in combating AMR and demonstrates the utility of computational methodologies in drug discovery. Further experimental validation is warranted to fully exploit these phytochemicals' therapeutic potential.

Abstract
Cefepime is a broad-spectrum fourth-generation cephalosporin with activity against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Cefepime is most commonly used for urinary tract infections, soft tissue infections, and febrile neutropenia. Up to 15% of ICU patients on cefepime may experience cefepime-induced neurotoxicity (CIN), with risk factors including renal dysfunction, excessive dosage, elevated serum cefepime concentrations, and history of prior brain injury. The adverse effects of CIN, including encephalopathy, seizures, and coma can be resolved with drug cessation, antiepileptics, or hemodialysis. Here, we present the case of CIN in a 59-year-old female patient with long-term cefepime antibiotic prescription for Pseudomonas bacteremia and endocarditis with multiple risk factors for reduced renal function. We discuss the relevant risk factors and preventive measures that may have prevented her from developing CIN, as well as the importance of early recognition and prevention of CIN in patient care.

Abstract
AbstractTubulointerstitial nephritis (TIN) or acute interstitial nephritis (AIN) is a renal lesion characterized by inflammatory infiltrate limited to the renal interstitium and tubules. Three-fourths of the cases are drug induced, other causes being systemic and autoimmune diseases, and infections. Various drugs have been implicated, the most common being antibiotics such as β-lactams. Cephalosporins causing AIN have been reported uncommonly, particularly in children. Although renal biopsy confirms the diagnosis, urinalysis provides pertinent diagnostic clues against the backdrop of the clinico-laboratory profile. The presence of white blood cells, white cell casts, and red blood cells in urine sediment have been described in literature. However, a relatively normal urinalysis may be present in some cases and may pose a diagnostic challenge. We present a case of ceftriaxone-induced AIN in a child with bland urine sediment at initial presentation. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of ceftriaxone-induced AIN in the pediatric age group.

Abstract
Infection is one of the most important reasons for the increase in the number of deaths worldwide; it can be a bacterial or viral infection. As a result, there are many effective drugs against this infection, especially bacterial ones. Cefepime (CP) is one of the fourth generations of cephalosporins and is distinguished from others in that it can kill both positive and negative bacteria. Therefore, this study focused on the chemical properties of the drug, its uses, and its stability against bacteria. All analysis methods for this drug in pharmaceutical preparations, blood, or plasma were also presented. One of the important problems in these methods is using toxic solvents, which poses a danger to society and the environment. The presentation of these solvents will allow companies to manufacture and use more effective and less toxic solvents.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a serious clinical syndrome, and one of the common comorbidities in the perioperative period. AKI can lead to complications in surgical patients and is receiving increasing attention in clinical workup. In recent years, the analysis of perioperative risk factors has become more in-depth and detailed. In this review, the definition, diagnosis, and pathophysiological characteristics of perioperative AKI are reviewed, and the main risk factors for perioperative AKI are analyzed, including advanced age, gender, certain underlying diseases, impaired clinical status such as preoperative creatinine levels, and drugs that may impair renal function such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NASIDs), ACEI/ARB, and some antibiotics. Injectable contrast agents, some anesthetic drugs, specific surgical interventions, anemia, blood transfusions, hyperglycemia, and malnutrition are also highlighted. We also propose potential preventive and curative measures, including the inclusion of renal risk confirmation in the preoperative assessment, minimization of intraoperative renal toxin exposure, intraoperative management and hemodynamic optimization, remote ischemic preadaptation, glycemic control, and nutritional support. Among the management measures, we emphasize the need for careful perioperative clinical examination, timely detection and management of AKI complications, administration of dexmedetomidine for renal protection, and renal replacement therapy. We aim that this review can further increase clinicians' attention to perioperative AKI, early assessment and intervention to try to reduce the risk of AKI.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury in patients who suffer a malignancy is a common complication. Due to its high prevalence and effective treatment, one of the most frequent causes that both oncologists and nephrologists must be aware of is acute tubulointerstitial nephritis (ATIN). ATIN is an immunomediated condition and the hallmark of the disease, with the presence of a tubulointerstitial inflammatory infiltrate in the renal parenchyma. This infiltrate is composed mainly of T lymphocytes that can be accompanied by macrophages, neutrophils, or eosinophils among other cells. One of the major causes is drug-related ATIN, and some antineoplastic treatments have been related to this condition. Worthy of note are the novel immunotherapy treatments aimed at enhancing natural immunity in order to defeat cancer cells. In the context of the immunosuppression status affecting ATIN patients, some pathogen antigens can trigger the development of the disease. Finally, hematological malignancies can also manifest in the kidney leading to ATIN, even at the debut of the disease. In this review, we aim to comprehensively examine differential diagnosis of ATIN in the setting of a neoplastic patient.

Abstract
Cystatin C (CysC) may estimate renal function more accurately than serum creatinine (SCr). The clinical impact of renal dose adjustment of cefepime according to CysC rather than SCr has remained uncertain. We investigated the efficacy and safety of CysC-guided cefepime dosing compared with SCr-guided dosing in hospitalized patients with pneumonia. All adults hospitalized with pneumonia between July 2016 and December 2018 who used cefepime for at least 3 days were enrolled. Mortality, acute kidney injury (AKI), cefepime-induced encephalopathy (CIE), and Clostridium difficile infection were compared between the CysC-guided and SCr-guided groups. One hundred and ninety patients were divided into two groups: 129 and 61 received cefepime based on CysC and SCr, respectively. In-hospital mortality did not significantly differ between the groups (12% versus 31%; hazard ratio (HR) 0.74; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.31-1.77; p = 0.50). CysC-guided cefepime dosing decreased the risk of AKI (13% versus 61%; HR 0.18; 95% CI, 0.07-0.44; p < 0.001) and CIE (2% versus 11%; HR 0.11; 95% CI, 0.03-0.47; p = 0.003) compared with SCr-guided dosing. There was no significant difference in the risk of Clostridium difficile infection. CysC-guided dosing of cefepime was associated with decreased risk of the cefepime-associated morbidities including AKI and CIE without increasing mortality among the hospitalized patients with pneumonia.

Abstract
Indoxyl sulfate (IS), a highly protein-bound nephro-cardiovascular toxin, was poorly removed by hemodialysis. IS exists as anions in the body and the renal excretion is mediated by organic anion transporter 1 (OAT1) and OAT3. Acidic antibiotics such as cephalosporins and fluoroquinolones were putative substrates/inhibitors of OATs. We hypothesized that cephalosporins and fluoroquinolones might compete with IS for OAT1- and/or OAT3-mediated renal excretions.This study investigated the effects of ciprofloxacin, cefuroxime, cefotaxime, cefazolin and ofloxacin on the intravenous pharmacokinetics of IS in rats. IS was intravenously injected with and without each individual antibiotics, and the concentrations of IS in serum and lysate were determined by HPLC.The results showed that ciprofloxacin significantly increased AUC0-t and T1/2 of IS by 272% and 491%, respectively, and decreased the clearance by 71%. However, ofloxacin, cefuroxime, cefotaxime and cefazolin did not alter the pharmacokinetics of IS. Furthermore, cell line study showed that ciprofloxacin inhibited the OAT3-mediated transport of IS.This study indicates 30 mg/kg of ciprofloxacin decreased the clearance of IS through inhibition on the OAT3-mediated transport, whereas 50 mg/kg of ofloxacin, cefuroxime, cefotaxime and cefazolin did not show significant influence.

Higher incidence of acute kidney injury in patients treated with piperacillin/tazobactam than in patients treated with cefepime: a single-center retrospective cohort study. J Pharm Health Care Sci 2019; 5:13.

Abstract
Background Piperacillin/tazobactam (PIPC/TAZ) and cefepime (CFPM) are commonly used for the treatment of nosocomial and healthcare-associated infections. Recent reports have suggested that the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients treated with a combination of vancomycin (VCM) and PIPC/TAZ is higher than that in patients treated with CFPM. However, there have been few reports on a comparison of the incidences of AKI in patients treated with PIPC/TAZ monotherapy and patients treated with CFPM. In this study, we investigated whether the incidence of AKI in patients treated with PIPC/TAZ is higher than that in patients treated with CFPM. Methods This study was a single-center retrospective observational study. Patients who died during the therapeutic period, patients younger than 18 years of age, and patients undergoing hemodialysis were excluded. Primary outcomes were the incidence of AKI and the AKIN stages defined by the Acute Kidney Injury Network. Secondary outcomes were discontinuation and/or change of antibiotics and initiation of dialysis due to AKI. We also investigated the time to onset and the risk factors of AKI in this population. Results There were 163 patients in the PIPC/TAZ group and 103 patients in the CFPM group. The incidence of AKI in patients treated with PIPC/TAZ (8.6%) was significantly higher than that in patients treated with CFPM (0.9%) (odds ratio (OR), 9.53; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.41–408; p= 0.011). AKI severity was mostly stage 1 in both groups. There was no discontinuation and/or changes of antibiotics and there was no initiation of dialysis in either group. The onset of AKI in the PIPC/TAZ group (median period of 4 days) was earlier than that in the CFPM group. PIPC/TAZ was determined to be an independent risk factor of AKI in multivariate analysis (adjusted OR, 9.56; 95% CI, 1.21–75.3; p = 0.032). Conclusions This study showed that the incidence of AKI in patients who received PIPC/TAZ was higher than that in patients who received CFPM. Furthermore, the onset of AKI was earlier in patients who received PIPC/TAZ than in patients who received CFPM. PIPC/TAZ was an independent risk factor of AKI in this study population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objective of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to assess acute kidney injury with combination therapy of vancomycin plus piperacillin-tazobactam, in general, adult patients and in critically ill adults. Rates of acute kidney injury, time to acute kidney injury, and odds of acute kidney injury were compared with vancomycin monotherapy, vancomycin plus cefepime or carbapenem, or piperacillin-tazobactam monotherapy. DATA SOURCES Studies were identified by searching Pubmed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane from inception to April 2017. Abstracts from selected conference proceedings were manually searched. STUDY SELECTION Articles not in English, pediatric studies, and case reports were excluded. DATA EXTRACTION Two authors independently extracted data on study methods, rates of acute kidney injury, and time to acute kidney injury. Effect estimates and 95% CIs were calculated using the random effects model in RevMan 5.3. DATA SYNTHESIS Literature search identified 15 published studies and 17 conference abstracts with at least 24,799 patients. The overall occurrence rate of acute kidney injury was 16.7%, with 22.2% for vancomycin plus piperacillin-tazobactam and 12.9% for comparators. This yielded an overall number needed to harm of 11. Time to acute kidney injury was faster for vancomycin plus piperacillin-tazobactam than vancomycin plus cefepime or carbapenem, but not significantly (mean difference, -1.30; 95% CI, -3.00 to 0.41 d). The odds of acute kidney injury with vancomycin plus piperacillin-tazobactam were increased versus vancomycin monotherapy (odds ratio, 3.40; 95% CI, 2.57-4.50), versus vancomycin plus cefepime or carbapenem (odds ratio, 2.68; 95% CI, 1.83-3.91), and versus piperacillin-tazobactam monotherapy (odds ratio, 2.70; 95% CI, 1.97-3.69). In a small subanalysis of 968 critically ill patients, the odds of acute kidney injury were increased versus vancomycin monotherapy (odds ratio, 9.62; 95% CI, 4.48-20.68), but not significantly different for vancomycin plus cefepime or carbapenem (odds ratio, 1.43; 95% CI, 0.83-2.47) or piperacillin-tazobactam monotherapy (odds ratio, 1.35; 95% CI, 0.86-2.11). CONCLUSIONS The combination of vancomycin plus piperacillin-tazobactam increased the odds of acute kidney injury over vancomycin monotherapy, vancomycin plus cefepime or carbapenem, and piperacillin-tazobactam monotherapy. Limited data in critically ill patients suggest the odds of acute kidney injury are increased versus vancomycin monotherapy, and mitigated versus the other comparators. Further research in the critically ill population is needed.

Nephrotoxicity during Vancomycin Therapy in Combination with Piperacillin-Tazobactam or Cefepime. Antimicrob Agents Chemother 2017; 61:AAC.02089-16.

Abstract
Recent reports have demonstrated that vancomycin (VAN) may lead to an increase in the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) when it is combined with antipseudomonal beta-lactams. This study compared the incidence of AKI associated with VAN plus piperacillin-tazobactam (TZP) or cefepime (FEP). This was a retrospective, matched cohort study that was conducted at an academic medical center between September 2010 and September 2014 and that included adult patients without severe chronic or structural kidney disease, dialysis, pregnancy, cystic fibrosis, or a hospital transfer receiving TZP-VAN or FEP-VAN for at least 48 h. The primary outcome was the difference in the AKI incidence between the TZP-VAN and FEP-VAN groups, evaluated using the risk, injury, failure, loss of kidney function, and end-stage kidney disease (RIFLE) criteria. Patients in the two groups were matched on the basis of age, sex, severity of illness, baseline creatinine clearance, hypotension, number of nephrotoxicity risk factors, and intravenous contrast exposure. In total, 4,193 patients met all inclusion criteria (3,605 received TZP-VAN and 588 received FEP-VAN). The unadjusted AKI incidence was 21.4% in patients receiving TZP-VAN, whereas it was 12.6% in patients receiving FEP-VAN (P < 0.001). After the patients were matched, 1,633 patients receiving TZP-VAN and 578 patients receiving FEP-VAN were evaluated. The AKI incidence remained higher in patients receiving TZP-VAN than in those receiving FEP-VAN (21.4% versus 12.5%, P < 0.0001). This trend remained true for all classifications of the RIFLE criteria. After controlling for remaining confounders, TZP-VAN therapy was associated with 2.18 times the odds of AKI than FEP-VAN therapy (95% confidence interval, 1.64 to 2.94 times) in logistic regression. AKI was significantly more common in patients receiving vancomycin in combination with piperacillin-tazobactam than in those receiving vancomycin in combination with cefepime. This finding reinforces the need for the judicious use of combination empirical antimicrobial therapy.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVE The combination of vancomycin and piperacillin-tazobactam has been associated with an increased risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) in non-critically ill patient populations, but it is still unknown if this association exists in critically ill patients. The objective of this study was to compare the incidence of AKI development during therapy or within 72 hours after completion of therapy in adult critically ill patients who received vancomycin with concomitant piperacillin-tazobactam or cefepime. DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. SETTING Medical, surgical, and neuroscience intensive care units (ICUs) within a single tertiary care hospital. PATIENTS A total of 122 critically ill patients who received at least 48 hours of combination therapy with vancomycin and piperacillin-tazobactam (49 patients) or vancomycin and cefepime (73 patients) during an ICU admission between September 2012 and December 2014. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS The primary outcome was AKI development, as determined by the Acute Kidney Injury Network criteria, during combination therapy or within 72 hours of completion of combination therapy. The inverse probability of the treatment-weighting (IPTW) approach was used to account for potential treatment selection bias. AKI incidence was assessed in the unadjusted and propensity score-weighted cohorts. Of the 122 patients, 37 patients (30.3%) developed AKI. In the unadjusted analysis, the incidence of AKI was similar in the piperacillin-tazobactam group compared with the cefepime group (32.7% vs 28.8%, p=0.647). The average treatment effect between the groups was not significant, showing no association between β-lactam choice and AKI (β = -0.004, p=0.958). Secondary outcomes were ICU length of stay, hospital length of stay, AKI duration, and need for renal replacement therapy. The choice of β-lactam was not a significant predictor of any of these outcomes: ICU length of stay (β = 0.436, p=0.780), hospital length of stay (β = 3.819, p=0.125), AKI duration (β = -4.027, p=0.283), and need for renal replacement therapy (β = 2.828, p=0.161). CONCLUSION After adjusting for propensity to receive each of the treatment choices, no significant difference was found in the incidence of AKI development or other outcomes between the groups. The previously described finding that concomitant vancomycin and piperacillin-tazobactam increases AKI in non-critically ill patients may not be generalizable to the critically ill population. Prospective evaluation of this hypothesis is warranted.
