The Occurence of Colistin-Resistant Hypervirulent Klebsiellapneumoniae in China [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018 Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae strains are usually susceptible to many antimicrobial agents including colistin. Here we report the isolation and characterization of several colistin-resistant hypervirulent K. pneumoniae clinical strains.

Virulence Factors in Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKP) has spread globally since first described in the Asian Pacific Rim. It is an invasive variant that differs from the classical K. pneumoniae (cKP), with hypermucoviscosity and hypervirulence, causing community-acquired infections, including pyogenic liver abscess, pneumonia, meningitis, and endophthalmitis.

Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae [PDF]
Clinical Microbiology Reviews, 2019 Hypervirulent K. pneumoniae (hvKp) is an evolving pathotype that is more virulent than classical K. pneumoniae (cKp). hvKp usually infects individuals from the community, who are often healthy.

Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae [PDF]
Open Forum Infectious Diseases, 2014 Abstract Hypervirulent strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae are associated with abscess formation, commonly hepatic, and metastatic spread, even in healthy patients. We describe a case of this clinical syndrome, genotypic and phenotypic features of the isolate, and briefly review epidemiology, clinical manifestations, and pathogenesis of ...

The making of hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae
Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, 2022 AbstractKlebsiella pneumoniae is a notorious bacterium in clinical practice. Virulence, carbapenem‐resistance and their convergence among K. pneumoniae are extensively discussed in this article. Hypervirulent K. pneumoniae (HvKP) has spread from the Asian Pacific Rim to the world, inducing various invasive infections, such as pyogenic liver abscess ...
