Evaluation of ompK36 allele groups on Clinical Characteristics and Virulence Features of Klebsiella pneumoniae from Bacteremia

ConclusionOur results suggest that the OmpK36 group C K.pneumoniae is more associated with community-acquired infection with a lower frequency of underlying illness, but with significantly more virulence in bloodstream infection. This would give a remind that clinicians should be aware of such clinical impacts of the ompK36 allele group. (Source: Journal of Microbiology, Immunology and Infection)
