People with diabetes develop foot ulcers because of neuropathy (sensory, motor, and
autonomic deficits), ischaemia, or both. The initiating injury may be from acute mechanical or …

The identification and diagnosis of diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) infections remains a complex
problem. Because inflammatory responses to microbial invasion may be diminished in …

Understanding the pathology resulting from Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas
aeruginosa polymicrobial wound infections is of great importance due to their ubiquitous …

Background. Asymptomatic colonization with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus
(MRSA) has been described as a risk factor for subsequent MRSA infection. MRSA is an …

Studies evaluating the risk of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)–
associated sequelae in colonized or infected inpatients have not extended follow-up into the …

Aims The primary objective was to characterize factors allowing the colonization of diabetic
foot wounds by multidrug‐resistant organisms (MDRO), and the secondary objective was to …

The study was carried out in diabetic patients with foot ulcer to determine the microbiological
profile of infected ulcer, antibiotic resistance of the isolates and to find out the potential risk …

OBJECTIVES. We conducted this study to assess the rate of methicillin-resistant
Staphylococcus aureus colonization and its association with infection among infants …

AIM: To investigate the risk factors for infection of the diabetic foot with multidrug resistant
microorganisms. METHODS: Amongst 102 diabetic patients with evidence of soft tissue …

Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia often persists. The reasons for persistence and its
outcome are poorly defined. We conducted a prospective-observational study among 245 …
