Prevalence of and risk factors for nasal methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus colonization among children in central Taiwan

Background/purpose: Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) causes diseases ranging from mild skin infections to invasive diseases. Carriage of S. aureus, including methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA), is a significant risk factor for subsequent staphylococcal infection. Several studies discussed MRSA...
