To match the staphylococcal diseases with their symptoms, we need to identify which symptoms correspond to specific infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus. Here are the common associations:

  1. Organ damage/shutdown: This is often associated with Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS), a severe condition caused by toxins produced by Staphylococcus aureus. TSS can lead to multi-organ failure.

  2. Localized abscesses: These are typically associated with Skin and Soft Tissue Infections (SSTIs), such as boils or furuncles, which are common manifestations of Staphylococcus aureus infections.

  3. Vomiting: This symptom is commonly linked to Staphylococcal Food Poisoning, which occurs when toxins produced by the bacteria in contaminated food are ingested.

  4. Bone infection: This is associated with Osteomyelitis, a serious infection of the bone often caused by Staphylococcus aureus.

In summary, the matches are:

  1. Organ damage/shutdown - Toxic Shock Syndrome
  2. Localized abscesses - Skin and Soft Tissue Infections
  3. Vomiting - Staphylococcal Food Poisoning
  4. Bone infection - Osteomyelitis
