• Identification of Biomarkers for Differentiation of Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae from Classical K. pneumoniae (2018, background): “that acquired part of an hvKp virulence plasmid caused a lethal nosocomial outbreak (19).”
• Colonization, Infection, and the Accessory Genome of Klebsiella pneumoniae (2018, background): “Recently, however, an outbreak due to a carbapenemresistant ST11 hvKP isolate occurred in China, heralding the potential for dual-risk isolates that both cause severe infections and are increasingly difficult to treat or are fatal due to antibiotic resistance (Gu et al., 2017).”
• Environmental factors influencing the development and spread of antibiotic resistance (2017, neutral): “We might already be witnessing a foretaste of what is to come, with hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae resistant to all antibiotics tested recently appearing in Chinese hospitals (Gu et al. 2017).”
