Clinical, molecular, and resistance features of <i>Listeria monocytogenes</i> in non-perinatal patients with listeriosis: 8-year retrospective data from four tertiary hospitals in Shandong, China
This study provides valuable insights into the clinical and molecular features of <i>L. monocytogenes</i> in non-perinatal patients with listeriosis. The findings demonstrated the predominance of serogroup 1/2a and ST8. Despite low resistance and appropriate treatment, listeriosis remains associated with a significant mortality rate, emphasizing the need for timely diagnosis and effective management strategies.
