Molecular epidemiology of Staphylococcus saprophyticus isolated from women with uncomplicated community-acquired urinary tract infection.
Staphylococcus saprophyticus is a common cause of urinary tract infections (UTIs) in women. Little is known about the molecular epidemiology of S. saprophyticus UTIs. In the current study, we compared 76 isolates of S. saprophyticus prospectively isolated from women with uncomplicated UTI participating in a randomized placebo-controlled treatment trial performed in northern Sweden from 1995 to ...

متن کاملCharacterization of a novel murine model of Staphylococcus saprophyticus urinary tract infection reveals roles for Ssp and SdrI in virulence.
Staphylococcus saprophyticus, an obligate human pathogen, is the most common Gram-positive causative agent of urinary tract infection (UTI) in young, healthy women. Despite the clinical importance of S. saprophyticus, little is known about how it causes disease in the urinary tract or how the host responds to the infection. Here we established an in vivo model to study both host and bacterial f...
متن کاملIncidence of novobiocin resistant coagulase negative staphylococcus saprophyticus in urinary tract infection in UITH, Ilorin, Nigeria
Coagulase negative Staphylococcus has long been considered of little significance as a urinary tract infection. The role of novobiocin resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococcus saprophyticus in infection of the urinary tract of women of childbearing age (14-40 years; mean age = 27 years; outpatients) was investigated. Three hundred female patients between the age bracket of 14 and 40 years (m...
متن کاملUrinary tract infection in young women, with special reference to Staphylococcus saprophyticus.
Acute urinary tract infections in young women attending a clinic for sexually transmitted diseases were caused by the same bacteria, in the same proportions, as those that caused infections in women students.
