Abstract

This document is a meeting report summarizing the presentations and discussions from the 2023 GTI Annual Meeting, which focused on new approaches to manage infectious complications in transplant recipients. Topics covered included new anti-infective agents and non-antibiotic approaches to manage infections caused by multidrug-resistant bacteria, staphylococci, and fungi, as well as new approaches to manage urinary tract infections in kidney transplant recipients. The report highlights the need for innovative strategies to address the challenges of treating infections in transplant recipients, who are at high risk of difficult-to-treat infections and side effects associated with anti-infective agents. The document also consists of a list of references to various scientific articles related to the treatment of infections in specific populations, such as kidney transplant recipients and patients with hematologic malignancies. The articles cover topics such as the use of antibiotics, the efficacy of different treatments, and the impact of gut microbiota on infection development. Some articles discuss the emergence of antibiotic resistance and potential solutions, such as bacterial vaccines. The document provides a comprehensive list of recent research in the field of infection treatment and prevention. It is a valuable resource for researchers and healthcare professionals interested in the field of infectious disease treatment. [Extracted from the article]
