Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 1. Source of the strains: From January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2024, non-repetitive VREfm strains were isolated from various clinical specimens (such as blood, urine, secretions, etc.) in the microbiology laboratory of Yuebei People's Hospital. 2. Patient information: Traceable to the corresponding anonymized inpatient information.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. Repeated strains isolated from the same patient within 30 days (only the first strain is included); 2. Strains that could not be revived due to improper preservation or poor quality of DNA extraction; 3. The corresponding patient's clinical medical records are severely lacking, making it impossible to obtain basic demographic and key clinical information.
