Looking for the latest literature on PCN-allergy cross-reactivity with cephalosporins and carbapenems

Does anyone know what was the latest publishing on this? I’ve found small sample-size studies addressing the importance (or unimportance, in a specific instance) of side chains in determining cross reactivity, I also caught the delabeling brief published by IDSA in 2016... anything newer that you are aware of?

Any guidance would be super super helpful! Thanks!

Lol help: Carbapenems are broad-spectrum last resort antibiotics useful for bacteria that are resistant against B-lactamase

I'm having trouble understanding "bacteria that are resistant against B-lactamase" and can't tell if it's because I'm reading the card wrong or if it's poorly written card.

How is a bacteria resistant against B-lactamase? I thought B-lactamases are found on bacteria (not antibiotics) and give them resistance against B-lactam drugs.

I'm assuming the card is trying to state Carbapenems are resistant to bacteria that contain b-lactamase?

[Article] Impact of carbapenem versus non-carbapenem treatment on the rates of superinfection: A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (Khalid Eljaaly, Mushira A. Enani, Jaffar A. Al-Tawfiq)

Hello, even though it is easy to get the main text, I need the supplementary resources. I am not able to download the appendices. If anyone could get these files, I'd be really thanful. Sci-hub doesn't seem to work for appendices and other kinds of supplementary resources (if there is a way around that and someone knows, please explain it to me).

Thanks
