Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen that has been reported to cause a variety of nosocomial infections, partly due to its high levels of antimicrobial resistance. With limited genomic surveillance at hand, knowledge about high-risk clones and epidemiological trends in Africa has been hindered. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to investigate the clonal diversity of P....
