| Abstract |
Tigecycline is an 'immature' antibiotic for children. We report the youngest surviving patient who received a complete tigecycline treatment, and no significant adverse effects occurred in the patient. The 3-month old infant suffered from a catheter-associated bloodstream infection by multiple drug resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae. Tigecycline was considered as a salvage therapy to control the severe sepsis. The therapy consisted of 3 mg/kg as a loading dose and 1.5 mg/kg Q12 h as a maintenance dose for 26 days. Current researches are limited in clinical trials directly focused on children. This therapeutic schedule might be safe for patients who are above 3 months old. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 07 July 2018.
All research outputs
#20,525,274
of 23,094,276 outputs
Outputs from Gut Pathogens
#485
of 526 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#287,968
of 328,687 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Gut Pathogens
#11
of 14 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,094,276 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 526 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 7.8. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 328,687 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 14 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
