It is worth mentioning that MRSA isolates from clone USA800/ST5 are very frequent in hospitals in Rio de Janeiro [60, 61] and stood out in our study, which could explain this greater resistance found. High rates of MRSA isolates represent a therapeutic challenge, as β-lactam drugs are ...
We characterize population structure in South Asia and describe a genotyping array (SARGAM) and imputation reference panel that are optimized for South Asian genomes. We find evidence for high rates of reproductive isolation, endogamy and consanguinity that vary across the subcontinent and that lead ...
Pregnant and postpartum women’s experiences of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the emotional and psychosocial impact of COVID-19 on perinatal health, has been well-documented across high-income countries. Increased anxiety and fear, isolation, as well
For example, what seems to be an NK cell subtype could be the result of a stress response that was triggered during cell isolation or by culture conditions. Thus, it is important to establish a consensus framework for a basic set of NK cell types by pooling datasets obtained from multiple ...

In the case of MERS-CoV, samples taken in hospitals and isolation wards in South Korea confirmed the airborne transmission. Some patients of the same ward were infected, even though they were standing more than two meters away from the source. Air samples and surrounding areas, including ...
Isolation of vanB-type Enterococcus faecalis strains from nosocomial infections: First report of the isolation and identification of the pheromone-responsive plasmids pMG2200, encoding vanB-type vancomycin resistance and a Bac41-type bacteriocin, and pMG2201, encoding erythromycin resistance and cyto...
coli isolated from patients suffering from community-onset UTIs in four hospitals in Upper Egypt Sector [1]. These high observed rates of ESBLs production in Egypt might have been triggered by the selective pressure imposed by the extensive usage of third-generation cephalosporins, which are ...
Harney admits lack of isolation facilities in hospitalsEithne Donnellan
The predominance of multidrug-resistant (MDR) microorganisms that gain resistance to multiple antibiotics through inherent or acquired mechanisms restricts the choice of antimicrobials in their treatment, leading to a long stay of patients in hospitals and increased healthcare costs [3,17,18]. Thus, ...
