Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae causing bloodstream infections in Hungary

Microbiology Spectrum
Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKP) can cause severe infections even in healthy individuals. Currently, no data are available on the frequency of hvKP-induced bloodstream infections (BSI) in Hungary.

Resistance of hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae to both intracellular and extracellular killing of neutrophils.

, 2017
Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (HvKP) is hypermucoviscous organism, carrying genes of rmpA and aerobactin, causing serious community-acquired infection and metastatically spread in young healthy hosts.

Genomically defined hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae contributed to early-onset increased mortality

Nature Communications
The presence of all five of the virulence-associated genes iucA, iroB, peg-344, rmpA, and rmpA2 is presently the most accurate genomic means for predicting hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKp-p).

Phenotypic and Genotypic Detection of Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolated from Hospital-Acquired Infections

Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae is a highly pathogenic variant of Klebsiella pneumonae, which represents a global public health issue because it is very virulent and spreads easily. The objectives of this study were to assess the predominance of hvKp
