One pot fabrication of diamino naphthalene -AuNPs decorated graphene nanoplatform for the MRSA detection in the biological sample
Bioelectrochemistry. 2024 Feb 28;157:108674. doi: 10.1016/j.bioelechem.2024.108674. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTEarly monitoring of MRSA can effectively mitigate the disease risk by using Penicillin-binding protein 2a (PbP2a) biomarker. Diamino naphthalene-AuNPs decorated graphene (AuNPsGO-DN) nanocomposite was synthesized for a rapid and sensitive immunosensor detecting PbP2a. The synthesized AuNPsGO-DN nanocomposites were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Raman spectroscopy, and X-ray di...

Persistent Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Bacteremia in a Patient With Multiple Cardiovascular Disease Risk Factors
We present a case report of a 75-year-old man with multiple cardiovascular disease risk factors and a past surgical history of bioprosthetic aortic valve replacement who presented to the emergency department with a 3-day history of weakness, chills, and chest pain. His electrocardiogram showed sinus tachycardia with first-degree AV block, and his laboratory workup revealed methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia. This case highlights a cardiovascular condition associated with community-acquired infection that carries a high morbidity and mortality. (Source: The Journal for Nurse Practitioners)

Risk factors for therapeutic failure in adults with methicillin-resistant < em > Staphylococcus aureus < /em > (MRSA) infection treated with vancomycin in a high-complexity hospital in Cali, Colombia
CONCLUSIONS: When a multiple analysis was performed to control for confounding factors, only 3 variables were found to be significant and were considered risk factors for therapeutic failure of vancomycin in adult patients with MRSA infection: age, MIC, and osteomyelitis/ septic arthritis.PMID:38456024 | PMC:PMC10917555 | DOI:10.53854/liim-3201-6 (Source: Infezioni in Medicina)
