13. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in HIV patients: Risk factors associated with colonization and/or infection and methods for characterization of isolates - a systematic review
Staphylococcus aureus is an important cause of infections and HIV-infected individuals are frequently susceptible to this pathogen. The aim of this study was to perform a systematic review to identify both the risk factors associated with colonization/infection by methicillin-resistant S. aureus in HIV patients and the methods used for characterization of is

14. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus sp. colonizing health care workers of a cancer hospital
The aim of the study was to analyze epidemiological and microbiological aspects of oral colonization by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus of health care workers in a cancer hospital. Interview and saliva sampling were performed with 149 health care workers. Antimicrobial resistance was determined by disk diffusion and minimum inhibitory concentration. Pol

15. Colonization pressure as a risk factor for colonization by multiresistant Acinetobacter spp and carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa in an intensive care unit
OBJECTIVE: To determine factors associated with colonization by carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa and multiresistant Acinetobacter spp. METHODS: Surveillance cultures were collected from patients admitted to the intensive care unit at admission, on the third day after admission and weekly until discharge. The outcome was colonization by these pa

16. Reduced salivary flow and colonization by mutans streptococci in children with Down syndrome
OBJECTIVES: Although individuals with Down syndrome have considerable oral disease, the prevalence of dental caries in this group is low. The present study aimed to compare known risk factors for dental caries development in children with Down syndrome and a matched population (siblings). In both populations, the number of acidogenic microorganisms, such as

17. Molecular identification and antimicrobial susceptibility of Staphylococcus aureus nasal isolates from medical students in Cartagena, Colombia
Staphylococcus aureus (SA) remains a major cause of nosocomial and community-acquired infections worldwide. Nasal carriage of this bacterium among hospital personnel constitutes an important source for nosocomial infections. A cross-sectional study enrolling the whole medical student population (n = 387) of the School of Medicine at the Universidad de Cartag

18. Factors associated with epidemic multiresistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections in a hospital with AIDS-predominant admissions
INTRODUCTION: Infections caused by multiresistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MR-PA) have been associated with persistent infections and high mortality in acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) patients. Therefore, understanding the predisposing factors for infection/colonization by this agent is critical for controlling outbreaks caused by MR-PA in settings

21. Prevalence and acquisition of MRSA amongst patients admitted to a tertiary-care hospital in brazil
Background: There are few studies in Brazil that address baseline prevalence of MRSA colonization and associated risk factors at hospital admission, or the incidence of nosocomial colonization. We report a prospective study in a tertiary-care, university-affiliated hospital to implement a new MRSA control policy at the institution. Methods: A cohort of rando

22. Tipagem molecular da cápsula de Haemophilus influenzae isolados da nasofaringe de crianças de creches de Goiânia / Molecular typing of the capsule of Haemophilus influenzae isolated from the nasopharynx of children in daycare centers in Goiânia
Haemophilus influenzae (Hi) causes infection in children, and is presented in two ways: with six encapsulated serotypes a-f and non-encapsulated or nontypeable (NTHi). Capsulated strains are responsible for a variety of invasive diseases, with meningitis being the most frequent. Nontypeable strains are responsible for respiratory tract infections and acute o

23. Epidemiologia e fatores de risco associados à colonização por VRE e MRSA em uma unidade de terapia intensiva de adultos
This investigation included a total of 78 VRE-colonized patients and 17 MRSA-colonized patients through study of the incidence in the period April 2009 to January 2010. We evaluated the rates of infection/colonization with these phenotypes, risk factors for colonization, antimicrobial susceptibility profile and characterization of vanA gene in enterococci st

24. Risk factors and likelihood of campylobacter colonization in broiler flocks.
Campylobacter was investigated in cecal droppings, feces, and cloacal swabs of 22 flocks of 3 to 5 week-old broilers. Risk factors and the likelihood of the presence of this agent in these flocks were determined. Management practices, such as cleaning and disinfection, feeding, drinkers, and litter treatments, were assessed. Results were evaluated using Odds
