Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae

Infection and Drug Resistance, 2023
Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKP), especially multidrug-resistant hvKP (MDR-hvKP) infections, are distributed globally, and lead to several outbreaks with high pathogenicity and mortality in immunocompetent individuals. This is usually characterized by a rapidly metastatic spread resulting in multiple pyogenic tissue abscesses.

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 ...

Klebsiella pneumoniae Flocculation Dynamics [PDF]

Bulletin of Mathematical Biology, 2007
The bacterial pathogen Klebsiella pneumoniae is a cause of community- and hospital-acquired lung, urinary tract and blood stream infections. It is a common contaminant of indwelling catheters and it is theorized in that context that systemic infection follows shedding of aggregates off of surface-adherent biofilm colonies.

Klebsiella pneumoniae pneumonia

Heart & Lung, 1997
Klebsiella pneumoniae is an uncommon cause of community-acquired pneumonia except in alcoholics. Klebsiella may mimic pulmonary reactivation tuberculosis because it presents with hemoptysis and cavitating lesions. Klebsiella pneumoniae is a difficult infection to treat because of the organism's thick capsule.

Fecal shedding of Klebsiella pneumoniae by dairy cows [PDF]

, 2006
Klebsiella pneumoniae is a common cause of clinical mastitis in dairy cattle. Wood products are considered to be the main source of Klebsiella on dairy farms.

AmiA and AliA peptide ligands are secreted by Klebsiella pneumoniae and inhibit growth of Streptococcus pneumoniae [PDF]

, 2022
Streptococcus pneumoniae colonizes the human nasopharynx, a multi-species microbial niche. Pneumococcal Ami-AliA/AliB oligopeptide permease is an ABC transporter involved in environmental sensing with peptides AKTIKITQTR, FNEMQPIVDRQ, and AIQSEKARKHN ...

Cleanliness scores as indicator of klebsiella exposure in dairy cows [PDF]

, 2008
This study was designed to explore the relationship between cow and udder cleanliness scores and the risk of isolation of Klebsiella spp. from lower hind legs and teat ends, respectively. The distribution of Klebsiella species was compared among isolates

Sources of Klebsiella and Raoultella species on dairy farms: Be careful where you walk [PDF]

, 2011
Klebsiella spp. are a common cause of mastitis, milk loss, and culling on dairy farms. Control of Klebsiella mastitis is largely based on prevention of exposure of the udder to the pathogen.
