Discovery of Structurally Diverse Small-Molecule Compounds with Broad Antiviral Activity against Enteroviruses.

abstract：:The role of linezolid in empirical therapy of suspected bacteremia remains unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of empirical use of linezolid or glycopeptides in addition to other antibiotics on the 30-day mortality rates in patients with Gram-negative bacteremia. For this purpose, 1,126 patien...
