Popis: Osteoarticular infections caused by Kingella kingae are characterized by mild-to-moderate clinical and biologic inflammatory signs that are different from those caused by Gram-positive cocci. A combined score was built to find the best model to predict K. kingae osteoarticular infections by using the following 4 variables: body temperature
