Biofilm formation of hypermucoviscous and non-hypermucoviscous Klebsiella pneumoniae recovered from clinically affected African green monkey ( Chlorocebus aethiops sabaeus )

Microbial Pathogenesis, 2017
In recent years, an emergent Klebsiella pneumoniae hypermucoviscous (HMV) phenotype has been associated with increased invasiveness and pathogenicity in primates. The HMV phenotype is characterized by different capsular serotypes, associated with several genes including the rmpA (regulator of mucoid phenotype) and magA (mucoviscosity-associated) genes.

Clinical, microbiological, and prognostic differences between hypermucoviscous and non-hypermucoviscous community-acquired Klebsiella pneumoniae infections

European Journal of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases
This study investigates the clinical, microbiological, and prognostic variations between hypermucoviscous Klebsiella pneumoniae (hmKp) and non-hypermucoviscous Kp (n-hmKp) infections.A total of 381 cases of community-acquired Klebsiella pneumoniae (cKp) infections at Zhongshan People's Hospital between January 2019 and November 2024 were analyzed ...

Clinical characteristics of bacteremia caused by hypermucoviscous Klebsiella pneumoniae at a tertiary hospital

Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease, 2019
This study aimed to assess the predictive factors of bacteremia due to hypermucoviscous Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKP), as well as the mortality. The medical records of 114 patients with K. pneumoniae bacteremia who were divided into the hvKP (n = 24) and non-hvKP (n = 90) groups and were retrospectively reviewed.

Hypermucoviscous polymyxin-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae from Kolkata, India: Genomic and phenotypic analysis

open access: yesJournal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance, 2019
Here we report the draft genome sequence of a colistin-resistant hypermucoviscous Klebsiella pneumoniae isolated from a hospitalised patient with acute kidney injury in Kolkata, India.Whole genomic DNA was sequenced using an Illumina HiSeq platform. The generated reads were de novo assembled using SPAdes v.3.7.1.

Necrotizing fasciitis following psoas muscle abscess caused by hypermucoviscous Klebsiella pneumoniae

Journal of Infection and Chemotherapy, 2012
A 59-year-old Japanese diabetic woman was admitted to a small private hospital with general malaise, fever, and a 1-month history of low back pain. A computed tomography scan of the abdomen revealed left abdominal necrotizing fasciitis with suspected left psoas muscle abscess.

Hypermucoviscous Klebsiella Pneumoniae Caused Community-Acquired Pneumonia in Gondar, Northwest Ethiopia

Clinical Laboratory
The incidence of hypermucoviscous Klebsiella pneumoniae (hmvKp), which complicates community-acquired pneumonia, has been increasing recently. This study aimed to detect hypermucoviscous K. pneumoniae and determine its antimicrobial susceptibility pattern in adult patients with community-acquired pneumonia in Northwest Ethiopia.This cross-sectional ...

A49-08 A Case of Hypermucoviscous Klebsiella Pneumonia With Infectious Metastases

American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine
Abstract Introduction Hypermucoviscous Klebsiella (hvKP) is a relatively new hypervirulent strain that was first noted in the Pacific Rim in the Asian population. Though a gram-negative rod, it can affect multiple organs through hematogenous spread.
