Emergence of a High-Risk Klebsiella michiganensis Clone Disseminating Carbapenemase Genes
Klebsiella michiganensis is emerging as an important human pathogen of concern especially strains with plasmid-mediated carbapenemase genes. The IncX3-blaNDM-5 plasmid has been described as the primary vector for blaNDM-5 dissemination.

Whole-genome sequencing reveals high-risk clones of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in Guangdong, China
The ever-increasing prevalence of infections produced by multidrug-resistant or extensively drug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa is commonly linked to a limited number of aptly-named epidemical ‘high-risk clones’ that are widespread among and within ...

Outbreak of high-risk XDR CRAB of international clone 2 (IC2) in Rio Janeiro, Brazil
: Objectives: Among the high-risk clones of Acinetobacter baumannii, called international clones (ICs), IC2 represents the main lineage causing outbreaks worldwide. Despite the successful global spread of IC2, the occurrence of IC2 is rarely reported in

Virulence Determinants of Colistin-Resistant K. pneumoniae High-Risk Clones [PDF]
We proposed the hypothesis that high-risk clones of colistin-resistant K. pneumoniae (ColR-Kp) possesses a high number of virulence factors and has enhanced survival capacity against the neutrophil activity. We studied virulence genes of ColR-Kp isolates and neutrophil response in 142 patients with invasive ColR-Kp infections.

Novel Molecular Markers Linked to Pseudomonas aeruginosa Epidemic High-Risk Clones [PDF]
The population structure of Pseudomonas aeruginosa is panmictic-epidemic in nature, with the prevalence of some high-risk clones. These clones are often linked to virulence, antibiotic resistance, and more morbidity. The clonal success of these lineages has been linked to acquisition and spread of mobile genetic elements.

Emerging Antimicrobial-Resistant High-Risk Klebsiella pneumoniae Clones ST307 and ST147 [PDF]
There is an enormous global public health burden due to antimicrobial-resistant (AMR) Klebsiella pneumoniae high-risk clones. K. pneumoniae ST307 and ST147 are recent additions to the family of successful clones in the species.

Escherichia coli high-risk clone ST410 harboring blaNDM-13 isolated from hospital wastewater in China. [PDF]
AbstractA carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli strain C-SRM-3 was isolated from hospital wastewater effluent in Hangzhou city, China in March 2022. Analysis of the whole genome sequence showed that this blaNDM-13-positive strain belonged to an internationally recognized high-risk clone ST410 responsible for the dissemination of carbapenem resistance ...
