Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia is a major cause of bloodstream infections, and hospital-acquired bacterial pneumonia is often caused by multidrug-resistant bacteria. And developing new antibiotics requires patient-centered clinical outcomes. How to conduct a patient-centered benefit-risk assessment in the design, analysis, and interpretation of clinical trials, so that more bacterial clinical studies can achieve the expected efficacy? At the recently Infectious Disease Week (IDWeek 2023), "Infectious Disease Frontline" invited Dr. Thomas L. Holland from Duke University Medical Center to introduce the practical application and potential challenges of DOOR research on ordinal outcome, and shared its importance to future clinical trials and treatment plans.

Bacterial drug resistance is a significant challenge in the global public health field. Multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs), represented by carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE), carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB), carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CRPA), and vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE), exhibit high resistance and rapid transmission. Previous studies have established a close relationship between intestinal CRE colonization and infection, but the relationship between intestinal colonization and infection of other MDROs remains to be clarified. In a recent oral presentation at the 2023 Infectious Diseases Week (IDWeek 2023), a researcher reported a study on the relationship between MDRO intestinal colonization and the risk of bloodstream infection (BSI). Dr. Yonghong Xiao, from the First Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, provides an introduction and commentary on this research.
