High Prevalence and Resistance Patterns of Community-Associated Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus in the Pomoravlje Region, Serbia [PDF]

, 2016
With a view to estimating the prevalence and resistance patterns of CA-MRSA in one region of Serbia, we performed an analysis of MRSA isolates from healthy people and hospitalised patients. The detection of CA-MRSA was carried out by SCCmec typing.

Prevalence and Antibiotic‐Resistance Profile of MRSA and MSSA on High‐Touch Hospital Surfaces in the Buea Health District, Cameroon

BioMed Research International, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Background Staphylococcus aureus is a major cause of hospital‐acquired infections, with methicillin‐resistant strains posing significant treatment challenges. High‐touch hospital surfaces can serve as reservoirs for S. aureus, facilitating transmission among patients and healthcare workers.

Fecal Carriage of Multidrug‐Resistant Staphylococcus aureus in Hypertensive Patients at the Douala Laquintinie Hospital: Prevalence and Resistance Patterns

BioMed Research International, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Patients with hypertension may be more susceptible to acquiring Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) infections, according to some studies. Hypertension and certain antihypertensive drugs predispose to multidrug‐resistant bacteria. The present study, carried out at the Laquintinie Hospital in Douala, is aimed at determining the antibiotic‐resistant ...
