All about nafithromycin, first antibiotic developed in India against deadly, drug-resistant bacteria
Developed by Mumbai-based Wockhardt, it will be available under brand name Miqnaf. Administering it once-a-day for 3 days could be significant in addressing drug-resistant pneumonia.

Eyeballing severity of MR. Best done in PLAX view. Measure the vena contracta (narrowest portion of jet at the mitral valve).
- Mild MR: < 0.3 cm
- Moderate MR: 0.3–0.69 cm
- Severe MR: ≥ 0.7 cm

Cervical cancer mortality in US women younger than 25 years significantly declined between 2016 and 2021, likely due to the widespread adoption of HPV vaccination.

Main takeaway: 7-days of abx should be the standard of care for patients with uncomplicated non-S. aureus BSI.
