Prevalence of MRSA Bacteremia in Liver Transplant Patients: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Serious infections are likely to occur a few months after transplantation, and most of them are bacterial. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteremia in liver transplant patients
