Panton-Valentine leucocidin is the key determinant of <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> pyomyositis in a bacterial genome-wide association study

2018-09-29

Abstract excerpt

Pyomyositis is a severe bacterial infection of skeletal muscle, commonly affecting children in tropical regions and predominantly caused by Staphylococcus aureus . To understand the contribution of bacterial genomic factors to pyomyositis, we conducted a genome-wide association study of S. aureus cultured from 101 children with pyomyositis and 417 children with asymptomatic nasal carriage attending the Angkor Ho...
