28 May, 26Clin. Infect. Dis.
- Beta-lactam + azithromycin vs doxycycline in community-acquired pneumonia (CAP)(n=5342 matched).
- Azithromycin linked to lower in hospital (OR 0.71) and 90 day mortality.
- More hospital free days seen with azithromycin.
- Prefer azithromycin combo; RCTs needed to confirm benefit/safety.
27 May, 26JAMA Pediatr
- Invasive bacterial infection (IBI) prevalence in well-appearing febrile infants 60–90 d is low (~1.1%).
- Prevalence of bacteremia was ~1.0%; meningitis was rare (~0.1%).
- Findings consistent across study designs and sensitivity analyses.
- Supports risk-based management and informed shared decision-making.

- The study of 2923 adults with T1DM found high prevalence of abnormal biomarkers: LDL ≥70 mg/dL in 80.2%, overweight 33.8%, obesity 30.3%, total cholesterol ≥200 mg/dL in 22.6%, low HDL in 13.4%, albuminuria ≥30 mg/g in 13.0%, eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m² in 6.2%, and FIB-4 ≥1.3 in 14.4%
- Higher HbA1c predicted abnormal CV/renal markers; male sex & BMI were linked to lowered HDL, & older age to elevated FIB-4.
21 May, 26Endocr Pract.
- Amongst 406 hyperglycemic crisis patients [303 diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), 103 hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state (HHS)], 14.8% had acute pancreatitis (AP), more frequent in DKA (17.5%) vs HHS (6.8%)
- Higher BMI, abdominal pain, shock, high γ-GTP, & hypertriglyceridemia predicted AP
- Alcohol use, T2DM, abdominal pain, shock, & γ-GTP predicted AP in DKA
- AP increased ICU admission but not hospital stay or mortality.
