Research Article: Genomic Analysis of Carbapenem-Resistant Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae in a Chinese Tertiary Hospital
Abstract:
Klebsiella pneumoniae (KP) is a common opportunistic pathogen in clinical practice, capable of causing infectious diseases in the urinary tract, respiratory tract, blood, and soft tissues. Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKp) has a higher virulence than KP and can cause severe infectious diseases, including pyogenic liver abscess, endophthalmitis, and meningitis.,
