First Three Reported Cases of Nosocomial Fungemia Caused by Candida auris

Wee Gyo Lee, +6 more
- 01 Sep 2011 - 
TL;DR: The first three cases of nosocomial fungemia caused by C. auris are described, which confirms that it is a causative agent of bloodstream infections and emphasizes the importance of accurately identifying this species.

VIM- and IMP-type metallo-β-lactamase-producing Pseudomonas spp. and Acinetobacter spp. in Korean hospitals

Kyungwon Lee, +5 more
- 01 Jul 2003 - 
TL;DR: The occurrence of acquired metallo-β-lactamase (MBL)–producing bacteria in Korean hospitals was determined and infections produced MBL and had alleles of blaVIM-2 or blaIMP-1.

Seong Jin Choi, +4 more
- 01 May 2012 - 
TL;DR: There was no significant difference in the prevalence of GBS, M. hominis, and U. urealyticum between the spontaneous PTB and PTL without preterm delivery groups.

Investigation of toxin gene diversity, molecular epidemiology, and antimicrobial resistance of Clostridium difficile isolated from 12 hospitals in South Korea

Heejung Kim, +10 more
TL;DR: This is the first nationwide study on the toxin status, including PCR ribotyping and antimicrobial resistance, of C. difficile isolates in Korea, and the most prevalent ribotype was ribotype 017, and all A-B+ strains showed this pattern.
