Abstract:
Multidrug-resistant (MDR) Klebsiella pneumoniae represents an increasing threat to human health, causing difficult-to-treat infections with a high mortality rate. Since colistin is one of the few treatment options for carbapenem-resistant K. pneumoniae infections, colistin resistance represents a challenge due to the limited range of potentially available effective antimicrobials, including tigecycline, gentamicin, fosfomycin and ceftazidime/avibactam. Moreover, the choice of these antimicrobials depends on their pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics properties, the site of infection and the susce

Abstract:
Severe course of COVID-19 in inpatients can be caused by a number of reasons, including viral and bacterial superinfections. Empirical use of antibiotics, as well as poor infectious control stimulate the emergence and spread of multidrug-resistant bacteria. Klebsiella pneumoniae is the most common carbapenemase-producing bacterial pathogen causing nosocomial infections. These strains became significantly widespread during the COVID-19 pandemic. Objective. To analyze phenotypic and genetic characteristics of K. pneumoniae strains as the dominant bacterial pathogen in severe COVID-19 patients in

Abstract:
Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKp) is an important strain that can cause multiple organ infections. Although hvKp infection cases are increasing, there is limited information on the prostatic abscesses caused by K. pneumoniae. Furthermore, the clinical significance of hvKp associated with K1 or K2 capsular types or virulence genes in prostatic abscesses remains unclear. Therefore, we aimed to elucidate the clinical and microbiological characteristics of prostatic abscesses caused by K. pneumoniae in relation to various virulence genes.
