Bloodstream Infections Caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae Carbapenemase–Producing P. aeruginosa Sequence Type 463, Associated With High Mortality Rates in China: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021
ObjectivesRecently, KPC-producing P. aeruginosa has rapidly emerged and expanded in East China. Here we described the clinical impact and characteristics of bloodstream infections (BSIs) from the dominant KPC-producing CRPA belonging to Sequence Type (ST)

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".

Hypervirulent strains of Clostridium difficile [PDF]

Postgraduate Medical Journal, 2007
Abstract North America has seen increasing numbers of hospitalised patients and others in nursing homes and the community, with more severe Clostridium difficile associated diarrhoea. This is also described in Northern Europe and surveillance systems are being developed or improved to monitor the situation.

Refractory Retroperitoneal Abscess Caused by Hypermucoviscous Klebsiella pneumoniae Requiring Open Surgical Drainage

IJU Case Reports, Volume 9, Issue 6, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Klebsiella pneumoniae is broadly classified into classical and hypervirulent pathotypes, with the latter associated with invasive infections and hematogenous dissemination. Case Presentation An 89‐year‐old woman presented with fever and fatigue. Imaging revealed a large retroperitoneal abscess.
