Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Global surveillance indicates rising ceftazidime-avibactam resistance among carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP), with sequence type 11 predominating in China. The contribution of blaKPC variants and porin alterations to high-level resistance remains significant. METHODS: We employed whole-genome sequencing and functional analyses to characterise a CZA-resistant ST11 CRKP isolate...
