A 5-Year Epidemiological Study of Monomicrobial Enterococcal Bloodstream Infection in a Population-Based Cohort.
Article in Open forum infectious diseases, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Background: The incidence, epidemiology, and clinical characteristics of enterococcal bloodstream infection (BSI) have not previously been studied on a population-based level in the United States. Methods: We utilized the Expanded Rochester Epidemiology Project medical records linkage system to conduct a contemporary 5-year, retrospective, population-based study of monomicrobial enterococcal (ME) BSI among adult residents of 8 counties in southeast Minnesota from January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2022. Results: A total of 109 cases of ME-BSI were identified. The overall age- and sex-adjusted incidence rate was 6.7 per 100 000 person-years (95% confidence interval, 5.4-7.9). Multivariable analysis revealed that male sex ( Conclusions: In this population-based study, ME-BSI was significantly associated with older age and male sex. There was a high rate of mortality at 12 weeks and 1 year, with ∼1 out of 7 cases complicated by definite infective endocarditis. These findings underscore the importance of ongoing investigation of this syndrome.
