    Abstract Purpose of review: To highlight the peculiarity of skin and soft tissue infections (SSTIs) in elderly patients and to provide useful elements for their optimal management.
    Recent findings: In the COVID-19 era, early discharge from the hospital and implementation of outpatient management is of key importance.
    Summary: Elderly patients are at high risk of SSTIs due to several factors, including presence of multiple comorbidities and skin factors predisposing to infections. Clinical presentation may be atypical and some signs of severity, such as fever and increase in C-reactive protein, may be absent or aspecific in this patients population. An appropriate diagnosis of SSTIs in the elderly is crucial to avoid antibiotic overtreatment. Further studies should explore factors associated with bacterial superinfections in patients with pressure ulcers or lower limb erythema. Since several risk factors for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) may coexist in elderly patients, these subjects should be carefully screened for MRSA risk factors and those with high risk of resistant etiology should receive early antibiotic therapy active against MRSA. Physicians should aim to several objectives, including clinical cure, patient safety, early discharge and return to community. SSTIs in the elderly may be managed using long-acting antibiotics, but clinical follow-up is needed.

    Abstract Purpose of review: The aim of this study was to discuss the potential clinical significance of heteroresistance in nonfermenting Gram-negative bacilli (GNB).
    Recent findings: Recently, heteroresistance has been considered potentially responsible for clinical failure in Acinetobacter baumannii infections. This raised a scientific debate, still open, about the potential clinical significance of heteroresistance in nonfermenting GNB.
    Summary: We reviewed the literature of last 20 years and found a limited number of studies evaluating the relationship between heteroresistance and clinical outcome in nonfermenting GNB. Unlike Gram-positive bacteria, heteroresistance is reported in a significant proportion of nonfermenting GNB with some studies describing it in all tested strains and for several antibiotics (including tigecycline, carbapenems, levofloxacin, cefiderocol, colistin). One important issue is the need for validated detection method since the population analysis profile test, that is considered the gold standard, requires high costs and time. Studies evaluating the correlation between heteroresistance and clinical outcome are contrasting and have several limitations. Although in-vitro detection of heteroresistance in nonfermenting GNB has not been associated with in-vivo treatment failure, its presence may suggest to prefer combination regimens instead monotherapy when treating infections by nonfermenters. Further studies are needed to clarify the clinical significance of heteroresistance.

    Abstract Peyronie's disease, a fibroinflammatory disorder, detrimentally impacts the sexual well-being of men and their partners. The manifestation of fibrotic plaques within penile tissue, attributed to dysregulated fibrogenesis, is pathognomonic for this condition. The onset of fibrosis hinges on the perturbation of the equilibrium between matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), crucial enzymes governing the extracellular matrix, and tissue inhibitors of MMPs (TIMPs). In the context of Peyronie's disease, there is an elevation in TIMP levels coupled with a decline in MMP levels, culminating in fibrogenesis. Despite the scant molecular insights into fibrotic pathologies, particularly in the context of Peyronie's disease, a comprehensive literature search spanning 1995 to 2023, utilizing PubMed Library, was conducted to elucidate these mechanisms. The findings underscore the involvement of growth factors such as FGF and PDGF, and cytokines like IL-1 and IL-6, alongside PAI-1, PTX-3, HIF, and IgG4 in the fibrotic cascade. Given the tissue-specific modulation of fibrosis, comprehending the molecular underpinnings of penile fibrosis becomes imperative for the innovation of novel and efficacious therapies targeting Peyronie's disease. This review stands as a valuable resource for researchers and clinicians engaged in investigating the molecular basis of fibrotic diseases, offering guidance for advancements in understanding Peyronie's disease.
