A longitudinal study shows intermittent colonization by Staphylococcus aureus with a high genetic diversity in hemodialysis patients
Staphylococcus aureus colonization increases the risk of invasive infections in different groups of patients. We analyzed the dynamics and factors associated with S. aureus colonization in hemodialysis patients. A longitudinal study was conducted at a dialysis center associated with a tertiary healt...
