A case report of a deep surgical site infection with Terrisporobacter glycolicus/T. Mayombei and review of the literature.
Article in BMC infectious diseases, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 36 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThere are increasing data regarding Terrisporobacter glycolicus as an emerging anaerobic pathogen. However, the few published cases to date usually report it as part of a polymicrobial infection. Here, we describe the first reported monomicrobial surgical site infection with this bacterium. Identification methods, taxonomy, and clinical management of this rarely identified pathogen are also discussed. CASE PRESENTATION: A previously healthy 66-year-old sustained an open olecranon fracture of his left arm after trauma. He subsequently underwent open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF), with insertion of an olecranon locking plate and two locking screws. Ten days after surgery, the patient developed increasing pain at the surgical site and noted green discharge from the wound. Culture of the wound discharge yielded grew a pure Gram-positive anaerobe identified by the RapidANA® microbial identification system as C. difficile (profile 000010, 99.1 % probability). Reference laboratory testing identified the isolate as T. glycolicus/mayombei (previously designated as Clostridium glycolicum/mayombei) by 16S rRNA gene sequencing and as Clostridium glycolicum by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. The patient received an 8-week course of moxifloxacin and metronidazole with an excellent clinical response at 12 months' follow-up.
conclusionsWe describe the case of a deep surgical site infection with T. glycolicus/mayombei (formerly known as Clostridium glycolicum and Clostridium mayombei, respectively), which extends our knowledge of the clinical spectrum of this pathogen. The isolate was misidentified by phenotypic identification methods.
