The distribution of plasmids that carry virulence and resistance genes in Staphylococcus aureus is lineage associated. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Staphylococcus aureus is major human and animal pathogen. Plasmids often carry resistance genes and virulence genes that can disseminate through S. aureus populations by horizontal gene transfer (HGT) mechanisms. Sequences of S.

Abstract Hamstring tendon autografts remain a popular choice for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction due to their favorable biomechanical properties and reduced donor‐site morbidity; however, delayed tendon‐to–bone integration and tunnel widening continue to limit outcomes when compared with bone–patellar tendon–bone grafts.

Aims Atypical colitis (presenting reverse gradient colitis, backwash ileitis or rectal sparing) is associated with primary sclerosing cholangitis–ulcerative colitis (PSC). Oral vancomycin has been used to manage paediatric atypical colitis with/without confirmed PSC. Different preparations had shown different efficacy.

Staphylococcus resistant to vancomycin emerges [PDF]
Researchers have reported the first three cases in the United States of infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus bacteria resistant to vancomycin, an antibiotic often reserved to fight these infections when no other agent is effective. To date, a total of four strains of S aureus intermediately resistant to vancomycin have been documented worldwide,

Emergence of Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococci [PDF]
Vancomycin and ampicillin resistance in clinical Enterococcus faecium strains has developed in the past decade. Failure to adhere to strict infection control to prevent the spread of these pathogens has been well established. New data implicate the use of specific classes of antimicrobial agents in the spread of vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE ...
