“…Furthermore, in countries such as Canada, the USA, Korea, Kuwait, Lebanon, France, Switzerland, Portugal, Spain, Germany, Bangladesh, China, and Japan, many lineages (e.g., ST131) circulate with quite similar resistance patterns [8] (Table 2). Globally, the predominant ExPEC clone is ST131, which is clustered into clades and subclades [15,37,39,[45][46][47]. It possesses a wide variety of beta-lactamases, with the most frequent including ESBLs (bla CTX-M-14,15,27 ), AmpCs (bla FOX−5 , bla DHA-1 ), MBLs, and carbapenemases (bla NDM-1,5; bla VIM-1 , bla KPC-2,-3,-18; bla OXA-48,-181,-232 ).…”
