Genetic Diversity of Polymyxin Resistance Genes in Klebsiella pneumoniae Clinical Isolates

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 2, January 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the genetic diversity and evolutionary mechanisms driving polymyxin resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae, a critical priority pathogen. By analysing mgrB, phoPQ and pmrAB genes in susceptible (PM‐S) and resistant (PM‐R) populations through neutrality tests (Tajima D, Fu & Li's D) we uncovered polygenic adaptation and ...

Clinical Epidemiological Analysis of the Genotypic Spectrum and Mortality Risk in Carbapenem‐Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) Infections

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Carbapenem‐resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) has become a global public health threat, with significantly increased morbidity and mortality among high‐risk inpatients. High‐risk genotypes of CRKP, primarily including K. pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC), oxacillinase‐48–like (OXA‐48–like), New Delhi metallo‐β‐lactamase (NDM), imipenemase ...

Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae in transplant patients

open access: yesJournal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2021
Abstract Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) are a serious public health concern and represent a major threat to immunocompromised hosts, including solid organ (SOT) and stem cell transplant (HSCT) recipients. Transplant patients are at particular risk of developing CPE colonization and/or infection due to their frequent ...

From Sound to Silence: Cerebellar Abscesses and Herniation Due to Cochlear Implant Infection With Escherichia coli and Bacteroides fragilis

open access: yesCase Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Cochlear implantation (CI) is a safe and well‐established intervention for sensorineural hearing loss, with a low incidence of severe postoperative infections. We present the first reported case of cerebellar abscess and herniation due to CI infection. This unique case involves a 57‐year‐old man with recurrent cochlear implant infections, necessitating

Neonatal‐Onset Chronic Granulomatous Disease Presenting With Recurrent Culture‐Negative Meningitis: A Case Report and Diagnostic Considerations

open access: yesCase Reports in Immunology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is a primary immunodeficiency caused by defective phagocyte oxidative burst and may present in early life with severe or recurrent infections. We report a female infant born at 38 weeks’ gestation (birth weight 2700 g) who developed fever and presumed sepsis at 5 days of life, followed by multiple recurrent ...

Antimicrobial Resistant Factors in Klebsiella pneumoniae Strains Isolated From Urinary Tract Infections, Wound Infections, Hospital Wastewater, and Cervical Cancers From Ghana, Togo, and Benin

open access: yesInternational Journal of Genomics, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Klebsiella pneumoniae is a Gram‐negative, facultatively anaerobic member of the Enterobacteriaceae that functions both as a gut commensal and a major opportunistic pathogen implicated in severe hospital and community‐acquired infections. The rapid global expansion of antimicrobial‐resistant K.

High Colonization Rate and Heterogeneity of ESBL- and Carbapenemase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae Isolated from Gull Feces in Lisbon, Portugal

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2020
In order to evaluate whether seagulls living on the Lisbon coastline, Portugal, might be colonized and consequently represent potential spreaders of multidrug-resistant bacteria, a total of 88 gull fecal samples were screened for detection of extended ...
