“…Prosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a disastrous complication after arthroplasty surgeries which causes great burden to both patients and surgeons, as well as social economy [1–4]. Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is one of the leading causative pathogens of PJI [58]. Due to its array of virulence and the ability to form biofilm [7, 913], S. aureus -induced PJI is particularly difficult to combat.…”

“…This can be attributed to the small predictive effect of ALBC of erythromycin as evidenced by the 95% confidence intervals in the univariate analysis (Table 4) becoming overwhelmed by the effects of other covariates. The methodological and data linkage limitations associated with the present study have been discussed previously [11, 12]. Unfortunately, the small numbers of cases employing uncemented fixation in the knee arthroplasty cohort precluded meaningful regression analysis of predictors of antibiotic resistance in this group.…”

“…Deep periprosthetic infection (PJI) following primary hip and knee arthroplasty is a catastrophic complication in terms of patient outcome and cost to the health service. The implicated microorganism(s) are important determinants of clinical outcome and previous work by our group has described the epidemiology in England and Wales by linking data held by the national joint registry (NJR) to national microbiology data [11, 12].…”
