Proportion of failures/remissions of 95 episodes of streptococcal prosthetic joint infections according to the antibiotic regimen. BL (total = 12): Beta-lactam monotherapy (amoxicillin = 14, ceftriaxone = 4). GP: glycopeptide monotherapy (total = 2, all teicoplanin). Other MT: (monotherapy total = 2, all clindamycin). RIF/Levo (total = 28): rifampicin/levofloxacin combination. RIF/Other (total = 24): rifampicin combinations other than rifampicin-levofloxacin (rifampicin and (i) amoxicillin = 12, (ii) trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole = 5, (iii) linezolid = 3, (iv) teicoplanin = 2, (v) clindamycin = 1, and (vi) doxycycline = 1). Other BT (bitherapy total = 19): other bitherapies (clindamycin-levofloxacin = 14, teicoplanin-ceftriaxone = 3, teicoplanin-levofloxacin = 2). Overall MT (total = 24): antibiotic monotherapies all together. Overall BT (total = 71): antibiotic bitherapies all together
