Submitting an article but substituting in a title to make the story about yourself goes against the submission guidelines [0]. The article doesn't have a particularly informative title, but piecing together the subtitle gives: "Team creates guidelines to reduce staph infections after surgery (2013)".
That said, the paper that this UIowa article references [1] is a meta-analysis of 39 previous studies. It doesn't seem fair to credit Schweizer et al with creating the guidelines. But that's university press shops for ya.
I had a nasal infection once and tested positive for MRSA from a nose swab. The doctor indicated I probably always have it living there, I’m curious if that sounds right?
The article said 3/10 carry it, so yeah likely the case.
This is good to know -- if I have a future planned surgery I'm going to make sure I get tested/treated if positive. It seems like simple preventative care.
Not only that, the founder of the technique was outcasted, ended up having a nervous breakdown, and was committed to an asylum where he was beaten and died from his wounds.
