Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae in a South African tertiary hospital—Clinical profile, genetic determinants, and virulence in Caenorhabditis elegans

Frontiers in Microbiology
IntroductionA distinct strain of Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae) referred to as hypervirulent (hvKp) is associated with invasive infections such as pyogenic liver abscess in young and healthy individuals.

Community-acquired liver abscess caused by capsular genotype K2-ST375 hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates

, 2019
Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae has been associated with community-acquired liver abscesses in relatively healthy subjects since the 1990s, occasionally accompanied by disseminated disease. While isolates of capsular genotype K1 belonging to sequence

Polymyxin-resistant hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolates from a tertiary hospital in China: molecular mechanisms, antimicrobial susceptibility, and virulent phenotypes

Frontiers in Microbiology
BackgroundPolymyxins are critical last-resort treatments for infections caused by multidrug-resistant (MDR) gram-negative bacteria, especially carbapenem-resistant isolates. Recently, there has been a continuous increase in reports of polymyxin-resistant
