A Case Series of Hypermucoid Klebsiella pneumoniae Liver Abscess in Caucasian Americans Without Travel History: An Epidemiologic Shift? [PDF]
ABSTRACT Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKp) is an emerging cause of community‐acquired pyogenic liver abscess (PLA), classically described in East and Southeast Asia. We report two cases of hvKp‐associated PLA in Caucasian women of American origin with no history of international travel, animal exposure, or Asian food consumption. Both patients

Rhabdomyolysis secondary to hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae infection: A case report
Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKP) is recognized as a lifethreatening community‐acquired infection associated with pyogenic liver abscess. However, rhabdomyolysis secondary to hvKP infection is rare.

The global emergence of hypervirulent, carbapenem‐resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvCRKP) poses a paradox: why do such dangerous clones remain geographically confined? By analyzing over 2500 CC23 genomes across 90 years, we uncover a core evolutionary constraint—virulence and resistance rarely coexist without trade‐offs. Potent carbapenemases (blaKPC,

Murine Models of Klebsiella pneumoniae Gastrointestinal Infection
Abstract Klebsiella pneumoniae (Kpn) is a Gram‐negative opportunistic pathogen and a leading cause of hospital‐acquired infections. The gastrointestinal (GI) tract serves as a critical site for Kpn colonization and a reservoir for host‐to‐host spread that primarily occurs through the fecal‐oral route.

Carbapenemase-resistant hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (CR-hvKP) is a common pathogen that can cause severe pneumonia. The innate immune response, especially the response of macrophages, plays a crucial role in the host's defense against bacterial infections. Glycolysis is implicated in the modulation of immune functions in macrophages.

目的 分析高黏液性肺炎克雷伯菌(hvKP)的临床特征及毒力基因携带情况,方法 对临床分离的肺炎克雷伯菌(KP),通过黏液拉丝试验筛选出hvKP,采用PCR方法检测hvKP的毒力基因和荚膜血清型,采用脉冲场凝胶电泳(PFGE)和多位点序列分型(MLST)方法对hvKP进行分子分型。结果 在631株KP中,共分离hvKP 56株,分离率为8.9%,主要来自于急诊病房、肝胆外科病房;穿刺液、血液和脓液为hvKP的主要标本来源;hvKP的荚膜血清型以K1和K2为主,二者占60.7 ...
