[Effect of coinfections in Ixodidae ticks on transmission of blood microparasites].

The purpose of this review was to describe and discuss the current spectrum of coinfections in Ixodidae ticks and their effects on the transmission of blood microparasites. Coinfections with Borrelia burgdorferi s. l. and Anaplasma phagocytophilum and/or Babesia sp. in ticks from Poland appear to be common, however, the potential influence on transmission dynamics, the mechanism of genetic variation and the ecology of interactions between pathogens remain poorly understood compared with infections by single pathogen.

Treating hepatitis C in HIV-HCV coinfected patients.

As the natural history of HIV infection has changed following the introduction of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART), morbidity an … tions within this population are increasing. The management of chronic hepatitis C (cHC) in HCV-HIV coinfection has become a major challenge, since possible interactions with antiretroviral therapies, increased risk of special side effects and compromises in adherence in patients already taking several drugs have to be taken into account. On the other hand, t …

Anti-schistosome antibody responses in children coinfected with malaria.

People residing in schistosome endemic areas are often infected with other parasites. The interaction of the parasites in the host has important implications in the development of acquired immunity to schistosomiasis, and schistosome immuno-epidemiology. An analysis of specific anti-schistosome egg responses in children coinfected with schistosomiasis and malaria shows that malaria positive children produce significantly more anti-schistosome IgE and IgG3 than schistosome infected children who are negative for malaria.

Meningococcemia in a patient coinfected with hepatitis C virus and HIV.

We describe the first reported case of meningococcemia in a patient coinfected with hepatitis C virus and HIV. Hypocomplementemia secondary to hepatic dysfunction may have enhanced the patient's susceptibility to meningococcal infection.

Dual Mycobacterial Infection: Rare Coinfection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Nontuberculous Mycobacteria.

There is little research on the subject, despite the rising prevalence of concurrent Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) and nontuberculous myc … e consultation. This case illustrates the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges inherent to MTB-NTM coinfection, where distinguishing true NTM disease from colonization is critical, and underscores the importance of multidisciplinary management.

Coinfection and nonrandom recombination drive the evolution of swine enteric coronaviruses.

Coinfection with multiple viruses is a common phenomenon in clinical settings and is a crucial driver of viral evolution. Although numerous studies have demonstrated viral recombination arising from coinfections of different strains of a specific species, the role of coinfections of different species or genera during viral evolution is rarely investigated. Here, we analyzed coinfections of and recombination events between four different swine enteric coronaviruses that infect the jejunum and ileum in pigs, including porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), transmissible gastroenteritis virus (T…

Viral Loads of Pneumoviruses: Correlation With Coinfection Rates and Disease Severity.

We looked at the interactions between viral loads, coinfection rates and disease severity for children infected with two pneumoviruses: human metapneumovirus (HMPV) and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). The HMPV RNA load in nasopharyngeal swabs of hospitalized children was significantly higher in mono-infections compared to coinfections but this was not the case for RSV, which could be explained by different innate immune responses. Also, the viral load of neither of the two viruses was associated with disease severity although RSV-infected children had higher severity scores than HMPV-infect…

Surveillance of TB-HIV coinfection in Brazil: a space-time approach.

OBJECTIVE: To identify the epidemiological, spatial, and temporal pattern of TB-HIV coinfection in Brazil during the period from 2001 to 2020. METHODS: Ecological study using space-time analysis techniques. It included cases of TB-HIV coinfection registered in Brazil from 2001 to 2020. The temporal trend analysis was performed using segmented regression by Joinpoint regression. For spatial analysis, Moran indices were calculated and choropleth maps were produced using TerraView and QGIS software.

The cGAS-STING pathway in HIV-1 and Mycobacterium tuberculosis coinfection.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis) infection is the most common opportunistic infection in human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1)-infected individuals, and the mutual reinforcement of these two pathogens may accelerate disease progression and lead to rapid mortality. Therefore, HIV-1/M. tuberculosis coinfection is one of the major global public health concerns. HIV-1 infection is the greatest risk factor for M. tuberculosis infection and increases the likelihood of endogenous relapse and exogenous reinfection with M. tuberculosis. Moreover, M. tuberculosis further increases HIV-1 rep…

Fatal Severe Fever with Thrombocytopenia Syndrome Virus and Pasteurella multocida Coinfection.

We herein report a case of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) with Pasteurella multilocida bacteremia in a 65-year-old man with alcoholic cirrhosis who was admitted to our hospital with anorexia and severe fatigue. Laboratory tests revealed pancytopenia and liver and kidney dysfunction. After admission, he developed impaired consciousness, mucosal hemorrhaging, and septic shock. SFTS virus was detected on polymerase chain reaction testing of blood and throat swabs, and Pasteurella multocida was detected on blood culture. Despite being treated with invasive mechanical ventilatio

COVID-19 and pulmonary Tubercuiosis coinfection: three case reports from Iran.

Tubercuiosis is still a significant problem worldwide. Until the COVID-19 pandemic, tuberculosis was the leading cause of mortality from a single infectious agent. Pulmonary Tubercuiosis patients are more tending to be co-infected with COVID-19 notably when they have a history of exposure. There are some case reports relating to pulmonary TB and COVID-19 coinfection but the information about TB and COVID-19 was still little. We report three coinfected patients. Case one and two were both middle-aged Iranian mans with history of opium addiction, case one presented with dyspnea and weakness and …

Pulmonary tuberculosis and neurologic melioidosis coinfection-first case report from Madurai.

Despite tuberculosis and melioidosis being endemic in many countries, coinfections are unusual. Only fourteen cases of tuberculosis melioidosis coinfections have been reported. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of coinfection of tuberculosis and neurologic melioidosis. We report a case of 48 year diabetic male presented with fever, headache and altered sensorium for two days. On examination, there was scalp abscess with subgaleal hematoma, pus culture of which grew B. pseudomallei. Sputum culture grew the same and sputum tuberculosis PCR was positive. Patient was concurrentl…

RESULTS: Four cross-sectional studies (372 participants) were iden…

Mucormycosis coinfection post-COVID-19 recovery: Early suspicion and prompt action.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection has resulted in a pandemic, the disease manifests itself as various conditions ranging from respiratory disorders to exacerbated inflammatory responses. The management in some cases involves immediate care in an intensive setup with the administration of various antibiotics and steroids which has resulted in the imposition of risk factors and growth of fulminant fungal infection. The present article addresses two such cases which presented with osteomyelitis secondary to mucormycosis in patients who had more than one episode of COVID-19

Association of Mycoplasma pneumoniae coinfection with adenovirus pneumonia severity in children.

Between the winter of 2018 and the end of 2019, there has been an epidemic of adenovirus infection in southern China, including Zhejiang Province. The number of children suffering from adenovirus pneumonia (AP) has significantly increased. AP can be accompanied by Mycoplasma pneumoniae in children. This study aimed to investigate the association of M. pneumoniae and identify the risk factors for coinfection on hospitalized patients with AP. The patients were classified into two groups by etiologic analysis (single AP and AP with M. pneumoniae coinfection groups). The clinical manifestations, c…
