Phylogenetic Analysis of Klebsiella pneumoniae from Hospitalized Children, Pakistan
نویسندگان
چکیده
Klebsiella pneumoniae shows increasing emergence of multidrug-resistant lineages, including strains resistant to all available antimicrobial drugs. We conducted whole-genome sequencing of 178 highly drug-resistant isolates from a tertiary hospital in Lahore, Pakistan. Phylogenetic analyses to place these isolates into global context demonstrate the expansion of multiple independent lineages, including K. quasipneumoniae.

Objective(s) Production of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) by enteric bacteria continues to be a major problem in hospitals and community. ESBLs producing bacteria cause many serious infections including urinary tract infections, peritonitis, cholangitis and intra-abdominal abscess. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of ESBLs producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiel...

Background: The increasing pattern of Multi-Drug Resistant (MDR) bacteria has limited therapeutic options especially for nosocomial isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae. Therefore, the aim of this study was the molecular detection of 16S rRNA methylase and blaCTX-M-15 among K. pneumoniae strains isolated from hospitalized patients in Mofid, Imam Hossein and Taleghani hospitals. Materials and Me...

Background and Aims: Klebsiella pneumoniae is a gram negative opportunistic pathogen of nosocomial infections that causes pneumonia, urinary tract infection (UTI), meningitis, septicemia and diarrhea. The emergence and spread of carbapenemase producing Klebsiella pneumoniae often cause failure in the treatment of infections. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of carbapenemase ...
