1. Molecular characteristics of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolates from hospital and community environments in northeastern Brazil
ABSTRACT This study characterized 30 MRSA isolates from intensive care unit (ICU) environment and equipment surfaces and healthy children. The SCCmec types I, IVa and V were detected in HA-MRSA isolates while CA-MRSA showed the SCCmec type IVa and V. Most isolates were classified as agr group II. All isolates presented the sei gene, and only HA-MRSA were pos

2. Differences in resistance profiles and virulence genes among methicillin-resistant and methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus of different lineages at a public tertiary hospital
Abstract INTRODUCTION Staphylococcus aureus is a major nosocomial pathogen that is associated with high virulence and the rapid development of drug resistance. METHODS We analyzed and compared the antimicrobial resistance, virulence profiles, and molecular epidemiology of 67 S. aureus strains, including 36 methicillin-sensitive (MSSA) and 31 methicillin-r

3. Molecular analysis of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus dissemination among healthcare professionals and/or HIV patients from a tertiary hospital
Abstract INTRODUCTION: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a nosocomial pathogen in community settings. MRSA colonized individuals may contribute to its dissemination; the risk of MRSA infection is increased in human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immune deficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) patients, although the prevalence of colonization in

4. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus nasal carriage in neonates and children attending a pediatric outpatient clinics in Brazil
Background: In Latin America, few studies have been carried out on methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus carriage in the pediatric population. We conducted a survey of nasal S. aureus carriage in neonates and in children attending the pediatric outpatient clinics in a large Brazilian city with high antimicrobial consumption. Methods: Pernasal swabs

5. Ocorrência de SCCmec tipo IV de Staphylococcus aureus em infecções comunitárias e hospitalares em um hospital universitário de Minas Gerais
Desde o primeiro relato de MRSA (―Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus‖), este microrganismo se disseminou nos hospitais em diferentes regiões do mundo e, atualmente, é considerado como o principal agente de infecções hospitalares causando infecções benignas, como as de pele e tecido mole, e graves, como pneumonia e sepse. A partir d

6. Genotyping of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolates obtained in the Northeast region of Brazil
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a major agent of hospital infections worldwide. In Brazil, a multiresistant MRSA lineage (ST239-SCCmecIIIA), the so-called Brazilian epidemic clone (BEC), has predominated in all regions. However, an increase in nosocomial infections caused by non-multiresistant MRSA clones has recently been observed. In

7. The first report in Brazil of severe infection caused by community-acquired methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA)
Community-acquired methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA) is an emergent pathogen in Brazil. However, there are no data on the prevalence of CA-MRSA. We report here the first well-characterized case of severe life-threatening CA-MRSA infection in a child living in Rio de Janeiro city. The patient had many complications including hematogenous o

8. Epidemiologia clínica e molecular de Staphylococcus aureus resistentes a meticilina carreadores de cassete cromossômico estafilocócico mec tipo IV de pacientes atendidos em hospital universitário de Porto Alegre
Staphylococcus aureus é um patógeno humano comum, causador principalmente de infecções de pele na comunidade e infecções em diversos sítios em ambiente hospitalar. Desde a última década, tornou-se motivo de preocupação devido ao aumento na incidência de infecções por cepas resistentes a meticilina (methicillinresistant S. aureus [MRSA]) na comu
