Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of community- and health care-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus infection.

TL;DR: It is suggested that most community-associated MRSA strains did not originate in health care settings, and that their microbiological features may have contributed to their emergence in the community.
Journal ArticleDOI

Group B Streptococcal Disease in the Era of Intrapartum Antibiotic Prophylaxis

TL;DR: Over a six-year period, there has been a substantial decline in the incidence of group B streptococcal disease in newborns, including a major reduction in the excess incidence of these infections in black infants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Active bacterial core surveillance of the emerging infections program network.

TL;DR: In 1998, early-onset group B streptococcal disease had declined by 65% over the previous 6 years, and 25% of invasive pneumococcal infections in ABCs areas were not susceptible to penicillin, and 13.3% were not susceptibility to three classes of antibiotics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Changing epidemiology of invasive pneumococcal disease among older adults in the era of pediatric pneumococcal conjugate vaccine.

TL;DR: The findings indicate that use of conjugate vaccine in children has substantially benefited older adults, and persons with certain comorbid conditions may benefit less than healthier persons from the indirect effects of the new vaccine.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Changing Epidemiology of Meningococcal Disease in the United States, 1992–1996

TL;DR: The most commonly expressed serosubtype was P1.15; 68% of isolates expressed 1 of the 6 most common sero-subtypes as discussed by the authors, indicating that serogroup Y was more likely to cause cases of meningococcal disease in older age groups.
