    • Gastrointestinal carriage of Klebsiella pneumoniae in a general adult population: a cross-sectional study of risk factors and bacterial genomic diversity 

      Raffelsberger, Niclas Peter; Hetland, Marit Andrea Klokkhammer; Svendsen, Kristian; Småbrekke, Lars; Löhr, Iren Høyland; Andreassen, Lotte; Brisse, Sylvain; Holt, Kathryn E.; Sundsfjord, Arnfinn; Samuelsen, Ørjan; Gravningen, Kirsten Midttun (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-06-28)
      Antibiotic resistant <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> is a leading public health threat and gastrointestinal carriage is an established risk factor for subsequent infections during hospitalization. Our study contributes new knowledge of risk factors for gastrointestinal carriage and the genomic population structure of <i>K. pneumoniae</i> colonizing humans in a representative sample of a general population ...

    • Insights into the genetic diversity, antibiotic resistance and pathogenic potential of Klebsiella pneumoniae from the Norwegian marine environment using whole-genome analysis 

      Håkonsholm, Fredrik; Hetland, Marit Andrea Klokkhammer; Svanevik, Cecilie Smith; Lunestad, Bjørn Tore; Löhr, Iren Høyland; Marathe, Nachiket Prakash (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-04-07)
      Klebsiella pneumoniae (Kp) can cause hospital- and community acquired infections. Although, Kp is widespread in the environment, very little is known about the genetic diversity and pathogenicity of Kp from the marine environment. The aim of our study was to understand the genetic diversity, resistome and pathogenic potential of 87 Kp isolates from the Norwegian marine environment, using whole-genome ...

    • A nationwide genomic study of clinical Klebsiella pneumoniae in Norway 2001–15: introduction and spread of ESBLs facilitated by clonal groups CG15 and CG307 

      Fostervold, Aasmund; Hetland, Marit Andrea Klokkhammer; Bakksjø, Ragna-Johanne; Bernhoff, Eva; Holt, Kathryn E.; Samuelsen, Ørjan; Simonsen, Gunnar Skov; Sundsfjord, Arnfinn; Wyres, Kelly L.; Löhr, Iren Høyland (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-12-22)
      Objectives: To use the nationwide Norwegian surveillance programme on resistant microbes in humans (NORM) to address longitudinal changes in the population structure of Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates from 2001–15, focusing on the emergence and dissemination of ESBL-producing K. pneumoniae in Norway.<p> <p>Methods: Among blood (n = 6124) and urinary tract (n = 5496) surveillance isolates from ...
