Characterization of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii isolates in a Chinese teaching hospital
Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) presents a serious therapeutic and infection control challenge. In this study, we investigated the epidemiological and molecular differences of CRAB, and the threatening factors for contributing to increased CRAB infections at a hospital in western...
