Characteristics of Neisseria meningitidis isolated from patients with urogenital infection in a region of China
These findings collectively demonstrate the convergent evolution of urogenital tropism, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) emergence, and metabolic adaptation to genitourinary microenvironments, underscoring the threat of genitourinary Nm infections. The study highlights the critical need to enhance molecular surveillance, implement rapid AMR screening, and prioritize MenB vaccination strategies in high-risk populations.
