Staphylococcus aureus, a major human pathogen, has a collection of virulence factors and
the ability to acquire resistance to most antibiotics. This ability is further augmented by …

This article reviews recent findings on the global epidemiology of healthcare-
acquired/associated (HA), community-acquired/associated (CA) and livestock-associated …

In recent years, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) have become a truly
global challenge. In addition to the long-known healthcare-associated clones, novel strains …

We sought to assess the prevalence of methicillin-resistance among Staphylococcus aureus
isolates in Africa. We included articles published in 2005 or later reporting for the prevalence …

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections are a serious global problem,
with considerable impact on patients and substantial health care costs. This systematic …

Abstract Research on African Staphylococcus aureus has been largely neglected in the
past, despite the cultural and geographical diversity in Africa, which has a significant impact …

Background: Staphylococcus aureus, a leading cause of community-acquired and
nosocomial infections, remains a major health problem worldwide. Molecular typing …

Hospital-associated infections caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus
(MRSA) are a global health burden dominated by a small number of bacterial clones. The …

Antimicrobial resistance has been increasing globally, which negatively affects food safety,
veterinary, and human medicine. Ineffective antibiotics may cause treatment failure, which …

Background Staphylococcus aureus is one of the main causes of bacteraemia, associated
with high mortality, mainly due to the occurrence of multidrug resistant (MDR) strains. Data …
