ABSTRACT Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKp) has emerged globally as a major public health concern, often associated with severe community‐acquired and healthcare‐associated human infections. Despite alerts from PAHO/WHO on convergent hvKp strains with multidrug resistance in Latin America, comprehensive data from Brazil, the region's largest ...

Pyogenic Liver Abscess, Bacteremia, and Meningitis with Hypermucoviscous Klebsiella pneumoniae [PDF]
Pyogenic liver abscess (PLA) is a potentially fatal disease. Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae) has replaced Escherichia coli (E. coli) as the predominant causative organism for pyogenic liver abscess.

Draft Genome Sequence of the First Hypermucoviscous Klebsiella variicola Clinical Isolate
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 K.

Lemierre's Syndrome Caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae: Case Report and Review of the Literature
Axial contrast‐enhanced chest CT demonstrating multiple peripheral cavitary nodules and consolidations, predominantly in the right lower lobe, consistent with septic pulmonary emboli (arrows). ABSTRACT Klebsiella pneumoniae is an uncommon but increasingly recognized cause of Lemierre's syndrome, a condition classically associated with Fusobacterium ...

Monomicrobial necrotizing fasciitis in a white male caused by hypermucoviscous Klebsiella pneumoniae [PDF]
We report a case of monomicrobial necrotizing fasciitis caused by hypermucoviscous Klebsiella pneumoniae in an immunocompromised white male after travel to China. The K. pneumoniae isolate belonged to the K2 serotype, and carried the virulence factors RmpA and aerobactin.

Klebsiella pneumoniae is an important emerging pathogen leading to serious clinical outcomes as the multidrug‐resistant (MDR) isolates arise. While K. pneumoniae is a well‐known pathogen in human clinical settings, its risks in nonhuman hosts and potential for cross‐species transmission remain poorly understood. In this study, we performed whole‐genome

Interaction of non-human primate complement and antibodies with hypermucoviscous Klebsiella pneumoniae [PDF]
Emergent hypermucoviscosity (HMV) phenotypes of Klebsiella pneumoniae have been associated with increased invasiveness and pathogenicity in primates. In this study, we investigated the interaction of African green monkeys (AGM) (Chlorocebus aethiops sabaeus) complement and antibody with HMV and non-HMV isolates as in vitro models of primate infection ...
