Genomic analysis reveals the presence of emerging pathogenic Klebsiella lineages aboard the International Space Station

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
Klebsiella species, such as Klebsiella pneumoniae, Klebsiella aerogenes, and Klebsiella quasipneumoniae, are opportunistic pathogens that commonly cause infections in humans. Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKP) is a subgroup of K.

Hype or hypervirulence [PDF]

Virulence, 2013
Clostridium difficile infections (CDI) have emerged as a major cause of healthcare associated disease, and recent epidemiological evidence also suggests an important role in community-acquired diarrhea. This increase is associated with specific types, especially PCR ribotypes 027 and 078, which are sometimes referred to as "hypervirulent".

CRISPR/Cas diagnostics for Klebsiella pneumoniae: from resistance and hypervirulence markers to clinically interpretable risk reporting

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology
Klebsiella pneumoniae (Kp) is a major cause of healthcare-associated and community-onset invasive infections. The emergence of carbapenem-resistant Kp (CRKP), hypervirulent Kp (hvKp), and resistance–hypervirulence convergence has increased the need for ...

Identification of a hypervirulent extensively drug-resistant ST383 Klebsiella pneumoniae sub-lineage carrying ICEKp5 in Lebanon

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy
Klebsiella pneumoniae ST383 has emerged as a high-risk clone, characterized by carbapenem resistance and increasing detection of hypervirulence determinants. We describe a phylogenetically distinct ST383 sub-lineage in Lebanon, defined by the acquisition
