Prevalence and molecular epidemiology of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus colonization with and without methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococci in HIV-infected patients
Abstract:Background The global prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) colonization in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients is increasing, but data about it was limited in mainland China. This study aims to investigate the epidemiology of MRSA nasal colonization among HIV-infected patients in mainland China and also evaluate the impact of methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococci (MRCoNS). Methods This cross-sectional study was designed to collect nasal samples and … Show more
