Blastocystis One Health Approach in a Rural Community of Northern Thailand: Prevalence, Subtypes and Novel Transmission Routes

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Blastocystis is the most commonly found eukaryote in the gut of humans and other animals. This protist is extremely heterogeneous genetically and is classified into 28 subtypes (STs) based on the small subunit ribosomal RNA (SSU rRNA) gene.

Within-patient horizontal transfer of pOXA-48 from a hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae SL218 to Serratia marcescens following spread of the K. pneumoniae isolate among hospitalised patients, Denmark, 2021

, 2023
A hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae SL218 (ST23-KL57), phylogenetically distinct from the classical hypervirulent SL23 (ST23-KL1) lineage, was transmitted between hospitalised patients in Denmark in 2021.

Early Response of Antimicrobial Resistance and Virulence Genes Expression in Classical, Hypervirulent, and Hybrid hvKp-MDR Klebsiella pneumoniae on Antimicrobial Stress

Antibiotics, 2021
Klebsiella pneumoniae is an increasingly important hospital pathogen. Classical K. pneumoniae (cKp) and hypervirulent K. pneumoniae (hvKp) are two distinct evolutionary genetic lines. The recently ongoing evolution of K.

Genomic insights into virulence factors affecting tissue-invasive Klebsiella pneumoniae infection

Annals of Clinical Microbiology and Antimicrobials, 2022
Background The key virulence factors responsible for hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKp) infection remains elusive. Methods We analyzed K. pneumoniae isolates collected between 2017 and 2019 and defined hvKp as a pyogenic infection.
