Multiple Colonization with S. pneumoniae before and after Introduction of the Seven-Valent Conjugated Pneumococcal Polysaccharide Vaccine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background: Simultaneous carriage of more than one strain of Streptococcus pneumoniae promotes horizontal gene transfer events and may lead to capsule switch and acquisition of antibiotic resistance. We studied the epidemiology of cocolonization with S.

Comparative phylogenomics of Streptococcus pneumoniae isolated from invasive disease and nasopharyngeal carriage from West Africans. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
BACKGROUND: We applied comparative phylogenomics (whole genome comparisons of microbes using DNA microarrays combined with Bayesian-based phylogenies) to investigate S.

SMC is recruited to oriC by ParB and promotes chromosome segregation in Streptococcus pneumoniae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Segregation of replicated chromosomes is an essential process in all organisms. How bacteria, such as the oval-shaped human pathogen Streptococcus pneumoniae, efficiently segregate their chromosomes is poorly understood.

Predictors of mortality in acute pancreatitis complicated with multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae infection

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases, 2021
Background Multidrug-resistant (MDR) Klebsiella pneumoniae infections, from pancreatic infections to bloodstream infections, influence the mortality of patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) on the condition of limited antibiotic choices.

Colonization, Infection, and the Accessory Genome of Klebsiella pneumoniae

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2018
Klebsiella pneumoniae is a Gram-negative pathogen that has a large accessory genome of plasmids and chromosomal gene loci. This accessory genome divides K. pneumoniae strains into opportunistic, hypervirulent, and multidrug-resistant groups and separates

Epidemiologia molecolare di Klebsiella pneumoniae produttore di beta-lattamasi ad ampio spettro (ESBL) circolante in una Terapia Intensiva Neonatale [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The molecular epidemiology of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae was investigated in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) of a university hospital in Italy from September 2002 to December 2004, when 233 ...

Survey and rapid detection of Klebsiella pneumoniae in clinical samples targeting the rcsA gene in Beijing, China

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Klebsiella pneumoniae is a wide-spread nosocomial pathogen. A rapid and sensitive molecular method for the detection of K. pneumoniae in clinical samples is needed to guide therapeutic treatment.

Characteristics of antibiotic resistance mechanisms and genes of Klebsiella pneumoniae

open access: yesOpen Medicine, 2023
Klebsiella pneumoniae is an important multidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogen that can cause a range of infections in hospitalized patients. With the growing use of antibiotics, MDR K. pneumoniae is more prevalent, posing additional difficulties and obstacles
