Summary Background Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) is a global
threat. We therefore analysed the bacterial characteristics of CRKP infections and the …

Carbapenem-resistant hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (CR-hvKP), a type of Klebsiella
pneumoniae (KP) that exhibits hypervirulence and carbapenem resistance phenotypes, can …

Adaptation to selective pressures is crucial for clinically important pathogens to establish
epidemics, but the underlying evolutionary drivers remain poorly understood. The current …

Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) has emerged as a severe global
