Enterococcus raffinosus bacteremia: clinical experience with 49 adult patients.

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
This study is to evaluate the clinical characteristics and outcomes of Enterococcus raffinosus bacteremia in adults. We analyzed the medical records of adult patients with E. raffinosus bacteremia who were diagnosed and treated between 1997 and 2020 at a tertiary care teaching hospital in Seoul, Republic of Korea. The demographic, clinical, and laboratory data were collected and assessed. A total of 49 cases of E. raffinosus bacteremia were identified. E. raffinosus accounted for 0.6% of all enterococcal bacteremia events, and the incidence was 0.02 cases per 1,000 admissions. Of the 49 cases of E. raffinosus bacteremia, 35 (71.4%) had underlying malignancy. The biliary tract was the most common source of infection (81.6%, 40/49) and polymicrobial bacteremia was found in 25 cases (51.0%). The resistance rates of E. raffinosus bacteremia cases to penicillin, ampicillin, vancomycin, and linezolid were 61.2%, 49.0%, 2.0%, and 0%, respectively. In our case series, there was one case of vanA-type vancomycin-resistant E. raffinosus. The all-cause 60-day mortality rate was 22.4% (11/49), and the E. raffinosus bacteremia-related mortality rate was 4.1% (2/49). Cases of E. raffinosus bacteremia mainly originated from biliary tract infection and had a low rate of bacteremia-related mortality.
