A corrigendum on
Epidemiological, clinical, and laboratory features of patients infected with Elizabethkingia meningoseptica at a tertiary hospital in Hefei City, China

by Li, Y., Liu, T., Shi, C., Wang, B., Li, T., Huang, Y., Xu, Y., and Tang, L. (2022). Front. Public Health 10:964046. doi: 10.3389/fpubh.2022.964046

In the published article, there was an error in Table 4In vitro of drug susceptibility results of patients infected with E. meningoseptica (N = 24)” as published. We are sorry for the percentage error, which is due to format conversion in the manuscript modification. This does not influence the P-value and the conclusion of the article. In the survival group, 85.7% of 14 strains was susceptible to piperacillin/tazobactam and 92.9% of 14 strains was susceptible to cotrimoxazole. In the death group, 70% of 10 strains was susceptible to levofloxacin and 60% of 10 strains was susceptible to piperacillin/tazobactam. The intermediate resistance of strains in the death group to levofloxacin was 10%. The resistance rates of all strains to levofloxacin and piperacillin/tazobactam were 20.8 and 8.3%, respectively. The resistance rate of strains in the survival group to amikacin, aztreonam, imipenem, and tobramycin was 92.9%. The resistance rate of strains in the death group to levofloxacin was 20%. The corrected Table 4 and its caption appear below.

TABLE 4

Table 4. The original “TABLE 4 In vitro of drug susceptibility results of patients infected with E. meningoseptica (N = 24).”

TABLE 4

Table 4. The corrected “TABLE 4 In vitro of drug susceptibility results of patients infected with E. meningoseptica (N = 24).”

The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
