Draft Genome Sequence of the First Hypermucoviscous Klebsiella variicola Clinical Isolate
Genome Announcements, 2015 ABSTRACT An antibiotic-susceptible and hypermucoviscous clinical isolate of Klebsiella variicola ( K. variicola 8917) was obtained from the sputum of an adult patient. This work reports the complete draft genome sequence of

Hypermucoviscous Klebsiella pneumoniae liver abscess requiring liver resection [PDF]
BMJ Case Reports, 2018 A 41-year-old healthy woman from China presented to her local hospital with a 4-day history of fevers, malaise and epigastric pain. On examination, she had localised right upper quadrant abdominal pain on palpation. Laboratory investigations showed leukocytosis (13.8×109/L), thrombocytopaenia (82×109/L) and elevated alanine transaminase (184 U/L).

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.Genotypic characterization of 82 clinical K. pneumoniae isolates identified 34 hypervirulent strains. The peg‐344 most strongly associated with hypervirulence (p = 0.0001) but with only 58.8% sensitivity and no signal in over 40% of hvKP isolates, it's a confirmatory marker, not a standalone diagnostic. ABSTRACT Klebsiella pneumoniae is an increasingly

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.ABSTRACT Objective Pyogenic liver abscess (PLA) caused by hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKp) may be complicated by endogenous endophthalmitis (EE) and pneumonia. We herein report a case of a Chinese male patient with PLA and bilateral EE caused by hvKp to highlight the severe clinical outcomes of this condition.

Potent monoclonal antibodies against multidrug‐resistant hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae
Interdisciplinary Medicine, Volume 4, Issue 4, July 2026.A novel immunization strategy using a low‐virulence, multidrug‐resistant strain yields synergistic monoclonal antibodies against hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae. These antibodies provide cross‐serotype protection through a dual‐mechanism of pathogen clearance and immunomodulation, offering a promising non‐antibiotic therapeutic for resistant ...
