    Abstract Background: Antipsychotic long acting injections (LAI) allow a range of dosage intervals to be administered. Short intervals can be inconvenient for patients and staff. There are few clinical reasons for using them yet this is common practice.
    Aims: This study aimed to examine the feasibility of reducing LAI frequency with service user consent.
    Methods: The study took place in a community mental health team in the north of England. A specialist mental health pharmacist reviewed records of all service users on LAI and drew up an action plan. Each service user then met with the consultant psychiatrist for medication review.
    Result: Nineteen out of thirty service users on LAI had intervals less than the maximum licensed. The frequency was reduced in eight cases. After 6 months follow-up, there was no deterioration in symptoms. In nine cases, antipsychotic doses were also reduced as a result of the review.
    Conclusion: Where a service user is prescribed a LAI with a short dosage interval consideration should be given to increase the interval. This can free up service user and staff time. A medication focused review can also lead to other benefits such as dosage reduction.

    Abstract Lung transplant recipients (LTRs) are vulnerable to hyperammonemia syndrome (HS) in the early postoperative period, a condition typically unresponsive to nonantibiotic interventions. HS in LTRs is strongly correlated with Ureaplasma infection of the respiratory tract, although it is not well understood what makes LTRs preferentially susceptible to HS compared to other immunocompromised hosts. Ureaplasma species harbor highly active ureases, and postoperative LTRs commonly experience uremia. We hypothesized that uremia could be a potentiating comorbidity, providing increased substrate for ureaplasmal ureases. Using a novel dialyzed flow system, the ammonia-producing capacities of four isolates of Ureaplasma parvum and six isolates of Ureaplasma urealyticum in media formulations relating to normal and uremic host conditions were tested. For all isolates, growth under simulated uremic conditions resulted in increased ammonia production over 24 h, despite similar endpoint bacterial quantities. Further, transcripts of

    Abstract Objective: The goal of this analysis is to spatiotemporally identify and categorize areas in a large urban city according to Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest (OHCA) rates and No Bystander CPR (NBCPR) risk levels.
    Study area and participants: The study comprised all cardiac arrests within the administrative geographic boundary of the City of Los Angeles. The final sample included 15,904 cases that were geolocated within 985 census tracts.
    Main outcomes and measures: The primary outcome was stratification of census tracts into risk levels of OHCA and NBCPR by observed spatiotemporal patterns.
    Results: Of 985 census tracts in the analytical sample, 182 census tracts (18.5%) were identified as having higher risk of OHCA and NBCPR. This assessment resulted in 129 census tracts in Tier 3 (moderate risk), 36 in Tier 2 (moderate-high risk), and 17 in Tier 1 (highest risk). Census tracts in Tiers 2 and 3 had higher amounts incident OHCA, while those in tier 1 had more OHCA events with NBCPR. These areas were largely contiguous and located in the Central and South areas of Los Angeles.
    Conclusions: Using a novel three-tiered neighborhood risk classification tool, specific neighborhoods have been identified in the second largest city in the U.S. with consistently high or accelerating rates of OHCA and low bystander CPR. Further study of bystander response and community-based public health campaigns are needed in these communities.

    Abstract Chronic infections are often associated with the presence of a biofilm, a community of microorganisms coexisting within a protective matrix of extracellular polymeric substance. Living within a biofilm can make resident microbes significantly more tolerant to antibiotics in comparison to planktonic, free-floating cells. Thus, agents that can degrade biofilms are being pursued for clinical applications. While biofilm degrading and dispersing agents may represent attractive adjunctive therapies for biofilm-associated chronic infections, very little is known about how the host responds to the sudden dispersal of biofilm cells. In this study, we found that large-scale, in vivo dispersal of motile biofilm bacteria by glycoside hydrolases caused lethal septicemia in the absence of antibiotic therapy in a mouse wound model. However, when administered prudently, biofilm degrading enzymes had the potential to potentiate the efficacy of antibiotics and help resolve biofilm-associated wound infections.
