Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae from clinical infections: a multifactorial analysis of resistance, virulence, and biofilm potential [PDF]
IntroductionKlebsiella pneumoniae has emerged as a major nosocomial pathogen, with hypermucoviscous and hypervirulent variants contributing to severe clinical outcomes. Understanding the interplay between antimicrobial resistance, virulence determinants,
