Differences in prevalence of community-associated MRSA and MSSA among U.S. and non-U.S. born populations in six New York community health centers.
As part of a research collaborative, 6 New York City-area community health centers recruited patients with Skin and Soft Tissue Infections (SSTIs). This study found that although not statistically significant, immigrants had lower rates of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections than did native-born participants, and immigrants showed significantly higher rates of Methicillin-Susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) wound cultures.
AHRQ-funded; HS021667.
