| Abstract |
Resistance among Klebsiella pneumoniae to the last resort antibiotics carbapenems and colistin is increasing worldwide. In this study, we used whole-genome sequencing to determine the colistin resistance mechanisms in clinical isolates of carbapenem- and colistin-resistant K. pneumoniae from Vietnam. Alterations in the regulatory gene mgrB, via mutations and insertion sequence transpositions, was found in 30 of 31 isolates, emphasizing the importance of this resistance mechanism in colistin-resistant K. pneumoniae. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 12. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 18 February 2019.
All research outputs
#3,114,789
of 25,382,440 outputs
Outputs from International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents
#410
of 3,031 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#64,937
of 446,214 outputs
Outputs of similar age from International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents
#9
of 54 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,382,440 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 87th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,031 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 22.3. This one has done well, scoring higher than 86% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 446,214 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 85% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 54 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 83% of its contemporaries.
