A Potential High-Risk Clone of Pseudomonas aeruginosa ST463 [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the most common opportunistic pathogens, which causes severe nosocomial infections because of its well-known multidrug-resistance and hypervirulence. It is critical to curate routinely the epidemic P.

Identification of extensive drug resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains: New clone ST1725 and high-risk clone ST233. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Several microorganisms produce nosocomial infections (NIs), among which Pseudomonas aeruginosa stands out as an opportunist pathogen with the capacity to develop multiresistance to first-choice antibiotics. From 2007 to 2013, forty-six NIs produced by P.

ST218 Klebsiella pneumoniae became a high-risk clone for multidrug resistance and hypervirulence [PDF]
BMC MicrobiologyBackground The occurrence of multidrug-resistant and hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (MDR-hvKp) worldwide poses a great challenge for public health. Few studies have focused on ST218 MDR-hvKp.

Multiple Benefits of Plasmid-Mediated Quinolone Resistance Determinants in Klebsiella pneumoniae ST11 High-Risk Clone and Recently Emerging ST307 Clone [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019 International high-risk clones of Klebsiella pneumoniae are among the most common nosocomial pathogens. Increased diversity of plasmid-encoded antimicrobial resistance genes facilitates spread of these clones causing significant therapeutic difficulties.

Isolation of an Extensively Drug-Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa exoS+/O4 Strain Belonging to the “High-Risk” Clone ST654 and Coproducer of NDM-1 and the Novel VIM-80 [PDF]
Microbiology Spectrum, 2022 The aim of this study was to investigate the genomic features of an extensively drug-resistant (XDR) Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolate (P-469) emerging in Chile. Antibiotic susceptibility was determined by disk diffusion and “colistin agar” test.

High Risk Clone: A Proposal of Criteria Adapted to the One Health Context with Application to Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli in the Pig Population [PDF]
Antibiotics, 2021 The definition of a high risk clone for antibiotic resistance dissemination was initially established for human medicine. We propose a revised definition of a high risk clone adapted to the One Health context.
