Wegener's granulomatosis is a systemic disease characterized by necrotizing granulomatous inflammation of the upper and lower respiratory tract and necrotizing crescentic glomerulonephritis. Nasal carriage of S. aureus is considered a risk factor for S. aureus infections. The aim was to examine possible risk factors for relapse including refractory nasal carriage of Staphylococcus aureus in pat...
The aim of this study was to determine whether polymorphisms of the glucocorticoid receptor gene, influencing glucocorticoid sensitivity, are associated with persistent nasal carriage of Staphylococcus aureus. Two nasal swab cultures were obtained from each of 2,929 participants. Subjects were classified as persistent carriers (n=563) if both cultures were positive. GG homozygotes of the exon 9...
BACKGROUND Staphylococcus aureus nasal carriage is influenced by multifactorial interactions which are difficult to study in open populations. Therefore, we concomitantly assessed the epidemiological, microbiological, and human-genetic carriage-related factors in a nearly closed population. METHODS In 2006 and 2008, we collected nasal S. aureus strains, human DNA, and epidemiological data fro...
Transmission of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) from animals to humans is of great concern due to the implications for human health and the health care system. The objective was to investigate the frequency and duration of MRSA carriage in human volunteers after a short-term exposure in a swine farm. The experimental study included 34 human volunteers staying 1 h in a MRSA-po...
BACKGROUND There is increasing evidence that community acquired S. aureus infections are spreading among healthy children. Nasal colonization with S. aureus plays pivotal role in the increasing prevalence of resistant community acquired S. aureus infections worldwide. A regular surveillance system is important in ensuring quality of patient care. The aim of the study was to assess the prevalenc...
Diabetic population were reported more likely to suffer carriage and infection with Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) than non-diabetic population. We aim to elucidate the prevalence and characteristics of S. aureus and MRSA nasal carriage among diabetic population in the United States National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, 2001-...
Hospital- and community-acquired Staphylococcus aureus infections pose a substantial burden in terms of morbidity, mortality and healthcare costs. The extent of nosocomial S. aureus transmission, in particular methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA), the prevalence of S. aureus colonization in healthy personnel working in hospital was determined. Factors associated with S. aureus nasal carriage ...
BACKGROUND Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) poses a threat to patient safety and public health. Understanding how MRSA is acquired is important for prevention efforts. This study investigates risk factors for MRSA nasal carriage among patients at an eastern North Carolina hospital in 2011. METHODS Using a case-control design, hospitalized patients ages 18 - 65 years were enr...
BACKGROUND Patients undergoing long-term hemodialysis have a high prevalence of Staphylococcus aureus nasal carriage, which may lead to serious infections. Mupirocin ointment has been used intranasally to eradicate S. aureus carriage in health human volunteers and health care workers. Chlorhexidine, an antiseptic with excellent antistaphylococcal activity, is widely used for handwashing and ski...
Staphyloccus aureus is one of the most important causes of nosocomial infections. In order to investigate the S. sureus colonization rate, 378 samples were taken from the nose and. throat of staffs of 4 university hospitals in Kerman.The control group consists of the same number of people with similar age and sex distribution. Seventy three hospitalized paients were also tested in this respect....
