Klebsiella spp. were identified more frequently in patients hospitalized in ICU (2021: 28,74%; 2022: 40,43%), Internal Diseases (2021: 24,8%; 2022: 15,55%) and General Surgery (2021: 7,87%; 2022: 7,82%) wards being isolated in higher percentages from ur...
Klebsiella spp. Klebsiella pneumoniae is a Gram-negative, nonmotile, encapsulated, rod-shaped bacillus present within the nasopharynx and gastrointestinal tract of humans and nonhuman primates. This bacterium has been associated with meningitis along with peritonitis, septicemia, and pneumonia in both New...
More than two third of the samples were from colonization events (57/87, 65.5%) and the main isolation sites were rectal swabs (38/87, 43.7%), followed by urine (21/87, 24.1%), blood (15/87, 17.2%), abdomen (6/87, 6.9%) and other sites (7/87, 8.1%). As expected, the ...
(Pathology) inflammation of one or both lungs, in which the air sacs (alveoli) become filled with liquid, which renders them useless for breathing. It is usually caused by bacterial (esp pneumococcal) or viral infection [C17: New Latin from Greek frompneumōnlung] ...
coli, Klebsiella spp., and Enterococcus spp. were each detected with high sensitivity (68%, 78%, 85%), specificity (99%, 99%, 99%), and accuracy (90%, 94%, 96%) at a resolution of 103 CFU/ml within 5 h. We further demonstrate how bioluminescence in urine can be used to ...
These studies suggest the importance of other urease accessory proteins in assisting UreE-dependent urease maturation. Severe catheter encrustation often originates from infection by urease-producing bacteria such as K. pneumoniae. The organism generates ammonia from urea, elevates the pH of urine, ...
pneumoniae were isolated from urine and sputum specimens col- lected from hospitalized patients [41]. K. pneumoniae has emerged as the most frequent carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative organism responsible for life-threatening late-onset sepsis in neonates, with blaNDM−1 and bla- OXA−48 being ...

The genomes of 164 presumptive Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates derived from blood, urine, pus, sputum, and ascitic fluid samples by routine culture from three hospitals in Thailand were sequenced; 30 isolates were from Thammasat University Hospital, Pathum Thani Province, 89 isolates were from Siriraj...
His urine output was satisfactory throughout the course. Serum potassium went up to 6.1 mmol/L and was managed medically. An ultrasound scan of his abdomen revealed a large ill-defined hypoechoic lesion suggestive of a liver abscess in the right lobe of his liver, at segments VII and ...
