With the increased prevalence of multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria, the use of colistin and other last-line antimicrobials is being revisited clinically. As a result, there has been an emergence of colistin-resistant bacterial species, inclu...
The MinION device by Oxford Nanopore produces very long reads (reads over 100 kBp were reported); however it suffers from high sequencing error rate. We present an open-source DNA base caller based on deep recurrent neural networks and show that the ...

We evaluated the antimicrobial susceptibility of 623 Gram-negative organisms causing infection in patients with cancer in 52 United States hospitals (2013-2014) as part of the International Network for Optimal Resistance Monitoring (INFORM) program. ...
Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae) has become a serious global health concern due to its rising virulence and antibiotic resistance. As one of the leading members of ESKAPE pathogens, it plays a major role in a wide range of infections that cause ...

OBJECTIVES: The World Health Organization has identified Klebsiella pneumoniae (KP) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) as significant public health threats owing to high antibiotic resistance. Traditional antibiotic susceptibility testing (AST) methods,...
Use matrix-assisted laser desorption ionisation time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) to screen the specific mass peaks of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP), compare the differences in spectrum peaks between intestinal and b...
Carbapenem resistance and hypervirulence represent two distinct evolutionary pathways in , posing significant challenges in clinical settings. Of particular concern are convergent strains that combine both traits, complicating timely diagnosis and tr...
, a gram-negative bacterium, is a common pathogen causing nosocomial infection. The drug-resistance rate of is increasing year by year, posing a severe threat to public health worldwide. has been listed as one of the pathogens causing the global c...
