FIG. 1 Use of clear definitions: grouping of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) according to epidemiological origin. CA-MRSA, community-associated MRSA; HACMRSA, healthcare-associated community-onset MRSA; HA-MRSA, healthcare-associated MRSA; ICU, intensive-care unit; LA-MRSA, livestock-associated MRSA.

FIG. 2 Probable genetic relatedness of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA): simplified minimum tree spanning tree based on multilocus sequence typing profiles (seven housekeeping genes). CA-MRSA, community-associated MRSA; HA-MRSA, healthcare-associated MRSA; SNP, single-nucleotide polymorphism.
