Prevalence, clonal diversity, and antimicrobial resistance of hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae and Klebsiella variicola clinical isolates in northern Japan

ABSTRACT: Objectives: Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKp) and Klebsiella variicola (hvKv) cause hospital/community-acquired infections, often associated with antimicrobial resistance (AMR). This study aimed to investigate the molecular epidemiology of hvKp and hvKv in northern Japan. Methods...
