The NARROWS framework, developed within the IDSA Core Antimicrobial Stewardship Curriculum, provides a structured, behaviorally informed approach to communication that helps stewardship teams address the social, emotional, and cultural factors influencing prescribing decisions in order to optimize antimicrobial use and combat resistance.

Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is an opportunistic, multidrug-resistant pathogen that poses significant treatment challenges due to its complex resistance mechanisms, limited therapeutic options, and high mortality rates among vulnerable patients.

This review highlights how people living with HIV are living longer due to antiretroviral therapy but face unique age-related health challenges, including cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome, renal dysfunction, neurocognitive decline, immunosenescence, bone loss, and frailty, requiring tailored screening and management strategies.

Biosurveillance is an essential early warning system for detecting and responding to infectious disease threats, helping to prevent localized cases from becoming widespread outbreaks or pandemics. Despite its proven value during crises such as COVID-19, biosurveillance programs often suffer from inconsistent funding and support, underscoring the urgent need for sustained investment and integration into public health infrastructure.

Clinical trial and real-world data, including the PROVE study, support its role as an effective and carbapenem-sparing therapy for serious infections, though outcomes vary depending on pathogen and infection type.

Doxycycline postexposure prophylaxis is associated with emerging tetracycline resistance in Neisseria gonorrhoeae and commensal organisms, highlighting the need for cautious, targeted use.

A recent literature review describes the current state of artificial intelligence tools for guiding antimicrobial therapy.
