Reduced mortality from KPC-K.pneumoniae bloodstream infection in high-risk patients with hematological malignancies colonized by KPC-K.pneumoniae

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2021
Background KPC-K.pneumoniae bloodstream infection (KPC-KpBSI) mortality rate in patients with hematological malignancies is reported about 60%. The initial treatment active against KPC-K.pneumoniae is crucial for survival and KPC-K.pneumoniae rectal ...

Clonal dissemination of Klebsiella pneumoniae ST258 harbouring KPC-2 in Argentina [PDF]

Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2011
The present work describes the abrupt emergence of Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC) and characterizes the first 79 KPC-producing enterobacteria from Argentina (isolated from 2006 to 2010). The emergence of bla(KPC-2) was characterized by two patterns of dispersion: the first was the sporadic occurrence in diverse enterobacteria from distant ...

Emerging Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolates Coproducing KPC-2 and VIM-1 Carbapenemases [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2009
VIM-1-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae strains, increasingly isolated in Greece since 2002, constitute the majority of multiresistant clinical isolates of this species found in most Greek hospitals ([9][1]).

Spitzer 70~$\mu$m Emission as a SFR Indicator for Sub--Galactic Regions [PDF]

, 2010
We use Spitzer 24 $\mu$m, 70 $\mu$m and ground based H$\alpha$ data for a sample of 40 SINGS galaxies to establish a star formation rate (SFR) indicator using 70 $\mu$m emission for sub--galactic ($\sim0.05-2\ \rm{kpc}$) line-emitting regions and to ...

Virulence of Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates harboring bla KPC-2 carbapenemase gene in a Caenorhabditis elegans model. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC) is a carbapenemase increasingly reported worldwide in Enterobacteriaceae. The aim of this study was to analyze the virulence of several KPC-2-producing K. pneumoniae isolates.

First Report of KPC-2 Carbapenemase-Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae in Japan [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2014
ABSTRACT We investigated a novel Japanese isolate of sequence type 11 (ST11), the Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase-2 (KPC-2)-producing K. pneumoniae strain Kp3018, which was previously obtained from a patient treated at a Brazilian hospital.

The Star Formation History of IZw18 [PDF]

, 1999
The star formation history in IZw18 has been inferred from HST/WFPC2 archival data. This is done by comparing the derived V, B-V and V, V-I color-magnitude diagrams and luminosity functions with synthetic ones, based on various sets of stellar ...

Elucidating the role of Trp105 in the KPC‐2 β‐lactamase [PDF]

Protein Science, 2010
AbstractThe molecular basis of resistance to β‐lactams and β‐lactam‐β‐lactamase inhibitor combinations in the KPC family of class A enzymes is of extreme importance to the future design of effective β‐lactam therapy. Recent crystal structures of KPC‐2 and other class A β‐lactamases suggest that Ambler position Trp105 may be of importance in binding β ...
