Insights into the epidemiology of methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococci carriage in community-based drug users
Background: Coagulase-negative Staphylococci (CoNS) are opportunistic pathogens. Methicillin-resistant CoNS (MRCoNS) remain a major cause of nosocomial infections, but limited information is available in communities. We, therefore, aimed to investigate the epidemiology of CoNS nasal carriage, especi...
