“…pneumoniae causes up to 5% of community-acquired UTIs and is significantly more common in diabetic patients and in the nosocomial setting (26,36,50). The urinary tract is the most common site of Klebsiella infection, although it may be better recognized as a cause of pneumonia in compromised hosts (7).…”

“…Therefore, it is always essential to look for other infectious foci in cases of soft tissue infections due to Klebsiella. 5,7,8 In a single hospital study conducted in Taiwan, Klebsiella was found to be responsible for 17% of monomicrobial NF, and held a higher mortality rate. Moreover, 80% of these patients were diabetic.…”

The incidence of Klebsiella infections is higher in diabetic patients [2][3][4]. The commonly reported infections in patients with rheumatoid arthritis are abscess (limb, perinephric, subdural, ovarian, cerebral, lung), pneumonia, empyema and pyelonephritis [5].…”
