| Abstract (English): | Introduction: Community-acquired methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a human skin and mucosa colonizer being this colonization a risk factor for infections by this germ. It's unknown the role that domestic canines and felines (CF) play in human colonization. The objective of this study was to demonstrate the association between MRSA isolation in clinical samples from skin and soft tissue infections (SSTIs) in adults living with CF. Material and methods: A retrospective model of cases (SSTIs with isolation of MRSA) and controls (SSTIs without isolation of MRSA) was used. We included 166 SSTI episodes treated in two hospitals, in Buenos Aires, Argentina, between October 2014 and January 2018. Samples were taken by puncture through healthy skin and the material obtained was sown in usual culture media. For bacterial identification, mass spectrometry and automated nephelometry were used. Methicillin-resistance was confirmed by disc-diffusion with cefoxitin discs. Data on living habits with CF and classic risk factors for SSTIs by MRSA were collected. Results: Patients with SSTIs due to MRSA live more with CF (crude OR 1.9; [1.1-3.7] p<0.05) and tend to live more closely with them (crude OR 1.8; [0.99-3.43] p=0.08). In the multivariate analysis, those who live closely with CF have 1.3 times more chances of SSTIs due to MRSA (adjusted OR 2.32; [1.12-4.78] p<0.02). Conclusions: We conclude that there is an association between human MRSA SSTIs and living with CF. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
| Abstract (Spanish): | Introducción: Staphylococcus aureus resistente a meticilina adquirido en la comunidad (SARM) es un colonizador de la piel y las mucosas humanas, y esta colonización es un factor de riesgo para las infecciones causadas por este microorganismo. Se desconoce el papel que desempeñan los caninos y felinos domésticos (CF) en la colonización humana. El objetivo de este estudio fue demostrar la asociación entre el aislamiento de SARM en muestras clínicas de infecciones de piel y tejidos blandos (IPPB) en adultos que conviven con CF. Material y métodos: Se utilizó un modelo retrospectivo de casos (IPPB con aislamiento de SARM) y controles (IPPB sin aislamiento de SARM). Se incluyeron 166 episodios de IPPB tratados en dos hospitales de Buenos Aires, Argentina, entre octubre de 2014 y enero de 2018. Las muestras se obtuvieron mediante punción a través de piel sana y el material obtenido se sembró en medios de cultivo habituales. Para la identificación bacteriana se utilizaron espectrometría de masas y nefelometría automatizada. La resistencia a la meticilina se confirmó mediante difusión con discos de cefoxitina. Se recopilaron datos sobre los hábitos de convivencia con CF y los factores de riesgo clásicos para IPPB causadas por SARM. Resultados: Los pacientes con IPPB debidas a SARM conviven más con CF (OR bruto 1.9; [1.1-3.7] p<0.05) y tienden a tener una convivencia más cercana con ellos (OR bruto 1.8; [0.99-3.43] p=0.08). En el análisis multivariable, aquellos que conviven estrechamente con CF tienen 1.3 veces más probabilidades de sufrir IPPB debidas a SARM (OR ajustado 2.32; [1.12-4.78] p<0.02). Conclusiones: Concluimos que existe una asociación entre las IPPB por SARM en humanos y la convivencia con CF. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
