Genomic characteristics and phylogenetic analyses of colonization and infection with carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae in multicenter intensive care units: a cohort study

Abstract excerpt

ABSTRACT Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae ( CRKp ) poses a major threat to global public health. This study aimed to investigate the genomic characteristics and phylogenetic relatedness of colonization and infection with CRKp among intensive care unit (ICU) patients. A total of 61 CRKp isolates, including 29 non-ICU-acquired and 32 ICU-acquired strains, were collected by active screening and infection...
