Hi #IDsky #TxIDsky
Severe pulmonary nocardiosis in a solid organ transplant, eradication therapy. 6 months in but would like to go for another 6 months.
Bactrim, doxy are not appropriate and now running into trouble with linezolid.
Has anyone used azith or cefixime? Other ideas?

Agreed.
With #CMV, do we think the risk of #IFI is a direct effect of the virus (eg through IL-10 homolog, etc), a reflection of the net state of immunosuppression, or both? #IDsky #TxIDSky

Great point!
We often advocate for a unifying diagnosis (Occam’s razor), but in people with immunocompromise, it’s important not to disregard Hickam’s dictum; “Patients can have as many diseases as they damn well please!”

I believe we have breaking news in Inside Medicine.
I spoke to a member of the FDA vaccine committee who confirmed that the meeting to decide the 2025-2026 flu shot composition was abruptly canceled today.

Large RCT of >3,000 patients, >50% in ICU, 7 days non-inferior to 14 days for (mostly) GNR BSI. Solid-organ/stem-cell transplant & neutropenia were excluded.
Note: 24% in 7d group received longer duration
