Abstract
BACKGROUND Vancomycin-induced acute kidney injury (VI-AKI) is one of its serious adverse reactions. The purpose of this study is to discuss the risk factors for VI-AKI in overweight patients and construct a clinical prediction model based on the results of the analysis. METHODS Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to identify risk factors for VI-AKI and constructed nomogram models. The performance of the nomogram was evaluated based on the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), calibration curves, and decision curve analysis (DCA). RESULT Cancer (OR 4.186, 95% CI 1.473-11.896), vancomycin trough concentration >20.0 μg/mL (OR 6.251, 95% CI 2.275-17.180), concomitant furosemide (OR 2.722, 95% CI 1.071-6.919) and vasoactive agent (OR 2.824, 95% CI 1.086-7.340) were independent risk factors for VI-AKI. The AUC of the nomogram validation cohorts were 0.807 (95% CI 0.785-0.846). The calibration curve revealed that the predicted outcome was in agreement with the actual observations. Finally, the DCA curves showed that the nomogram had a good clinical applicability value. CONCLUSION There are four independent risk factors for the occurrence of VI-AKI in overweight patients, and the nomogram prediction model has good predictive ability, which can provide reference for clinical decision-making.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Vancomycin, a commonly prescribed antibiotic particularly in the setting of multi-drug resistant infections, is limited by its nephrotoxicity. Despite its common occurrence, much remains unknown on the clinicopathologic profile as well as the pathogenesis of vancomycin nephrotoxicity. Clinical studies included patients often with severe comorbidities and concomitant polypharmacy confounding the causal pathogenesis. Animal models cannot recapitulate this complex clinical situation. Kidney biopsy was not commonly performed. METHODS To address this limitation, we studied 36 patients who had renal biopsies for acute kidney injury (AKI) for suspicion of vancomycin nephrotoxicity. Detailed renal biopsy evaluation, meticulous evaluation of clinical profiles, and up-to-date follow-up allowed for a diagnostic categorization of vancomycin nephrotoxicity (VNT) in 25 patients and absence of vancomycin nephrotoxicity (NO-VNT) in 11 patients. For careful comparison of these two groups, we proceeded to compile a clinicopathologic and morphologic profiles characteristic for each group. RESULTS Patients with VNT had a characteristic clinical profile including a common clinical background, a high serum trough level of vancomycin, a rapidly developed and severe acute kidney injury, and a recovery of renal function often shortly after discontinuation of vancomycin. This clinical course was correlated with characteristic renal biopsy findings including acute tubulointerstitial nephritis of allergic type, frequent granulomatous inflammation, concomitant and pronounced acute tubular necrosis of nephrotoxic type, and vancomycin casts, in the absence of significant tubular atrophy and interstitial fibrosis. This clinico-pathologic profile was different from that of patients with NO-VNT, highlighting its role in the diagnosis, management and pathogenetic exploration of vancomycin nephrotoxicity. CONCLUSION Vancomycin nephrotoxicity has a distinctive morphologic and clinical profile, which should facilitate diagnosis, guide treatment and prognostication, and confer pathogenetic insights.

Abstract
Drug-induced acute kidney injury (AKI), especially from exposure to antibiotics, has a high prevalence secondary to their frequent prescription. Typically, drug-induced AKI results from acute tubular necrosis or acute interstitial nephritis. While some risk factors for the development of AKI in individuals treated with antibiotics are modifiable, others such as concomitant drug therapies to treat comorbidities, age, and pre-existing chronic kidney disease are not modifiable. As such, there is an urgent need to identify strategies to reduce the risk of AKI in individuals requiring antibiotic therapy. Natural products, especially those rich in active constituents possessing antioxidant properties are an attractive option to mitigate AKI risk. Given that mitochondrial dysfunction precedes AKI and natural products can restore mitochondrial health and counter the oxidative stress secondary to mitochondrial damage investigating their utility warrants further attention. The following review summarizes the available preclinical and clinical evidence that provides a foundation for future study.

Abstract
Numerous observational studies and meta-analyses have suggested that combination therapy consisting of piperacillin–tazobactam (TZP) and vancomycin (VAN) augments acute kidney injury (AKI) risk when compared to viable alternatives, such as cefepime–vancomycin (FEP–VAN) and meropenem–VAN. However, the exact pathophysiological mechanisms of this phenomenon are still unclear. One major limitation of the existing studies is the utilization of serum creatinine to quantify AKI since serum creatinine is not a sufficiently sensitive and specific biomarker to truly define the causal relationship between TZP–VAN exposure and nephrotoxicity. Even so, some preventive measures can be taken to reduce the risk of AKI when TZP–VAN is preferred. These measures include limiting the administration of TZP–VAN to 72 h, choosing FEP–VAN in place of TZP–VAN in appropriate cases, monitoring the VAN area under the curve level rather than the VAN trough level, avoiding exposure to other nephrotoxic agents, and minimizing the prescription of TZP–VAN for patients with a high risk of AKI. More data are needed to comment on the beneficial impact of the extended-infusion regimen of TZP on nephrotoxicity. Additionally, TZP and teicoplanin can be reasonable alternatives to TZP–VAN for the purpose of lowering AKI risk. However, the data are scarce to advocate this practice convincingly.

Abstract
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), commonly called a superbug, is a highly alarming antibiotic-resistant population of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) bacteria. Vancomycin (VAN) was first approved by the FDA in 1988, and it is still regarded as the treatment of choice for MRSA. The efficacy of VAN treatment has become less effective due to the development of VAN resistance in MRSA and the potential for nephrotoxicity. This study aims to improve the efficacy of VAN treatment by identifying the folate receptor for MRSA infected tissues and developing folate decorated lipid nanoparticles containing VAN (LVAN). In comparison to conventional VAN, LVAN showed a higher bactericidal effect and a superior ability to inhibit biofilm in MRSA with an enhanced accumulation in MRSA infected thigh tissues and a reduced accumulation in kidney. The results suggested that LVAN is a promising candidate to overcome the current limitations of bacterial resistance and adverse side effects in kidneys found in VAN.

Abstract
Vancomycin is associated with nephrotoxicity, and the mechanism may in part be related to oxidative stress. In vitro and preclinical studies suggest that melatonin supplementation decreases oxidative stress. The objective of this study was to evaluate concomitant use of melatonin and vancomycin and the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI). We performed a retrospective cohort study at a large community medical center. All consecutive patients admitted to the medical center between January 2016 and September 2020 who received vancomycin therapy alone or concomitantly with melatonin as part of ordinary care were considered for inclusion. The primary endpoint was the development of AKI, defined as an absolute increase in serum creatinine of ≥0.3 mg/dl or a ≥50% increase in serum creatinine. All data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. A multivariable logistic regression was constructed to account for potential confounding variables. We identified a total of 303 adult patients meeting inclusion and exclusion criteria treated with vancomycin, 101 of which received melatonin concomitantly. Overall baseline characteristics were similar between the two groups except for the incidence of bacteremia/sepsis. After controlling for the vancomycin area under the curve, baseline creatinine clearance, and intensive care unit admission in a multivariable logistic regression analysis, melatonin use was associated with a 63% decrease in AKI (odds ratio [OR], 0.37; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.14 to 0.96; P = 0.041). Melatonin use was associated with a significant reduction in vancomycin-related AKI. Although this was a retrospective study with a small sample size, given the magnitude of the difference seen, further large prospective studies are warranted.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Antibiotic overuse leading to antimicrobial resistance is a global public health concern. Clinical trials have demonstrated that procalcitonin-based decision-making for antibiotic therapy can safely decrease inappropriate antibiotic use in patients with respiratory infections and sepsis, but real-world data are scarce. This study sought to assess the impact of a procalcitonin-based antibiotic stewardship program (protocol plus education) on antibiotic use in community hospitals. METHODS An observational, retrospective, matched cohort study was conducted. Eligible patients treated in hospitals with a procalcitonin-based protocol plus education (Procalcitonin cohort hospitals) were matched to patients admitted to facilities without procalcitonin testing (Control cohort hospitals) using a 1:2 ratio. The Control hospitals were facilities where procalcitonin testing was not available on site. Patient matching was based on: (1) age, (2) gender, (3) admission diagnosis code using groupings of the International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision, (4) whether patients were admitted to the intensive care unit, and (5) whether a blood culture test was performed. Procalcitonin cohort hospitals implemented a quality improvement initiative, where procalcitonin was available, used regularly, and clinicians (physicians and pharmacists) were educated on its use. RESULTS After adjustment, patients in the Procalcitonin cohort had 1.47 fewer antibiotic days (9.1 vs. 8.5 days, 95%CI: -2.72; -0.22, p = .021). There was no difference in length of stay or adverse clinical outcomes except for increase in acute kidney injury (odds ratio = 1.26, 95%CI: 1.01; 1.58, p = .038). CONCLUSIONS Patients with respiratory infections and sepsis in hospitals utilizing a procalcitonin-based protocol coupled with education received fewer days of antibiotic therapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Medications are a relatively common cause of acute kidney injury (AKI), especially in hospitalized patients who are exposed to numerous agents. Drug-related acute tubular/tubulointerstitial injury is the most common cause of AKI associated with these agents. Toxic effects of drugs and their renal handling often lead to various forms of AKI. RECENT FINDINGS The inherent nephrotoxicity of drugs and their transport and metabolism by the kidneys play an important role in the occurrence of acute tubular injury. Apical transport of the aminoglycosides by endocytosis and apical pinocytosis of filtered hydroxyethyl starch into cells lead to acute tubular dysfunction. Transport of tenofovir and cisplatin by organic anion and cation transporters in the basolateral surface of the proximal tubule, respectively, are associated with intracellular drug accumulation and injury. Intratubular deposition of drug crystals with associated AKI occurs with several drugs, in particular the anticancer agent methotrexate. A potentially new mechanism of drug-induced AKI was described with vancomycin - acute vancomycin-related cast nephropathy. Immune-mediated acute tubulointerstitial injury is another cause of drug-induced AKI, as seen with immune checkpoint inhibitors. SUMMARY Drugs lead to AKI through mechanisms that involve their inherent toxicity as well as their transport and handling by the kidneys.

Abstract
Introduction: Nephrotoxicity is a frequent complication of vancomycin therapy. Experimental studies in different animal species have demonstrated the attenuation of vancomycin-associated nephrotoxicity with cilastatin administration. This study aimed to evaluate if imipenem-cilastatin attenuates vancomycin-associated nephrotoxicity, in patients treated with combinations of vancomycin and carbapenems. Methods: This retrospective, propensity-score matched study was conducted at King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Centre, Riyadh and Jeddah. Nephrotoxicity was compared in patients who received imipenem-cilastatin + vancomycin or meropenem + vancomycin. Patients with no history of renal disease who received imipenem-cilastatin + vancomycin or meropenem + vancomycin for a minimum of 72 h, from 1 January 2017 to 31 December 2017, were included. Nephrotoxicity was defined according to the RIFLE criteria (Risk, Injury, Failure, Loss, End-stage renal disease) if sustained for least 72 h. Results: A total of 227 patients were included in the analysis, consisting of 121 patients in the imipenem-cilastatin + vancomycin group, and 106 patients in the meropenem + vancomycin group. In the unmatched data set the rate of nephrotoxicity was 8.2% in imipenem-cilastatin + vancomycin group and 20.7% in the meropenem + vancomycin group (p = .007). Logistic regression analysis showed that imipenem-cilastatin + vancomycin therapy was associated with a 56% lower rate of nephrotoxicity compared to meropenem + vancomycin therapy. Propensity-score matching resulted in rates of nephrotoxicity of 6.2% and 17.1% in the imipenem-cilastatin + vancomycin group and the meropenem + vancomycin groups, respectively (p = .034). Conclusion: Vancomycin-associated nephrotoxicity developed less frequently when vancomycin was combined with imipenem-cilastatin than when combined with meropenem.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Vancomycin associated acute kidney injury (vAKI) is a well known complication in pediatric patients. Identification and characterization of the incidence and risk factors for vAKI in the pediatric population would assist clinicians in potentially preventing or mitigating vAKI. METHODS AND MATERIALS A 6 year retrospective cohort study was designed. Patients were included if they were < 19 years of age, received vancomycin as inpatients, and had a baseline SCr and one other SCr drawn during and up to 72 hours after the discontinuation of vancomycin. Data collection included patient demographics, vancomycin doses and length of therapy, vancomycin serum concentrations, and concomitant medications. The Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria were used to characterize acute kidney injury. Descriptive statistical methods were used and ordinal logistic regression was employed to determine variables significantly associated with vAKI. RESULTS A total of 7,095 patients met study criteria (55.4% male, median age 4.1 years (IQR 0.67-11.2 years)). Mechanical ventilation was used in 7.9% (n = 563) and mortality was 4.9% (n = 344). A total of 153 concomitant medications were identified. A median of 5 (IQR 3-7) SCr values were obtained and median SCr prior to vancomycin was 0.39 (IQR 0.28-0.57) mg/dL (CrCl 134±58 mL/min/1.73m2). Vancomycin was administered for a median of 2 (IQR 1-3) days (14.9±1.6 mg/kg/dose). vAKI was present in 12.2% (n = 862: KDIGO stage 1 (8.30%, n = 589), KDIGO stage 2 (1.94%, n = 138) KDIGO stage 3 (1.89%, n = 134)). Mean vancomycin serum concentration at 6-8 hours after a dose for patients with vAKI (10.7±8.9 mg/L) was significantly, but not clinically different for patients with no vAKI (7.5±6.3 mg/L). (p<0.05) Ordinal logistic regression identified total dose of vancomycin, vancomycin administration in the intensive care unit, and concomitant medication administration as significant for vAKI. In particular, concomitant administration of several different medications, including nafcillin, clindamycin, and acetazolamide, were noted for strong associations with vAKI. (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Moderate to severe acute kidney injury due to vancomycin is infrequent in children and associated with concomitant medication use and total dose of vancomycin. Serum vancomycin concentrations are not useful predictors of vAKI in the pediatric population.
