Occurrence, determinants and dynamics of HPV coinfections in a cohort of Montreal university students
Background: Coinfections with multiple types of human papillomavirus (HPV) are a common occurrence among HPV-infected individuals, but the clinical significance and etiology of these infections remain unclear. Though current evidence suggests that women with coinfections have increased HPV exposure …

Ecological and evolutionary aspects of interactions between microbes coinfecting plants
Coinfections of one host with multiple pathogen species are common, and have important implications for host health and pathogen fitness. In the research reported here, plant virus systems were used to explore the effects of coinfection on pathogen populations and host responses. Chapter 1 …

Increasing morbidity of Chlamydia and Gonorrhea cases in San Joaquin County, California : locating high risk areas through GIS analysis of cases from 1997-2006
… annual), then for repeat infections, and then coinfections. Census tracts that continually showed high rates of infections were then mapped at the block level to locate more focused areas of infection. Demographic characteristics such as age, gender, race/ethnicity, incarceration, and poverty …

Medical Engineering and Medical Physics: Metagenomic Sequencing for Viral Diagnostics and Discovery
… These methods were used to interrogate secondary coinfections in patient cohorts with primary HIV and Lassa infection. Metagenomic sequencing can also be utilized to perform large scale screening for the directed evolution of viral vectors. Adeno-associated virus (AAV) is a non-pathogenic virus …

Utility of the biofire filmarray pneumonia panel plus assay for syndromic testing of lower-respiratory tract infections in a low-middle-income setting
… agreement. The FA-PP detected bacterial-viral coinfections in 27% of samples. Correlation of FA-PP results with pharmacy data (n=69) indicated a potential antibiotic change in 75% of cases, but this is difficult to accurately characterise without a ‘gold-standard' for treatment or complete …

USO DA PCR CONVENCIONAL COMO MEIO DE DIAGNÓSTICO DE EHRLICHIA CANIS, ANAPLASMA PLATYS, BABESIA SPP. E HEPATOZOOM SPP. EM CÃES COM TROMBOCITOPENIA
… thrombocytopenic dogs, and the occurrence of coinfections is common. A high rate of infection with Hepatozoon spp. was observed in thrombocytopenic dogs treated at the veterinary hospital of UFPB. PCR was more sensitive and specific in the diagnosis of hemoparasites than the direct …

Optimisation of a flow cytometry antibody panel to detect BCG-induced innate responses in infants
… convoluted by factors such as age, geography, coinfections including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and previous Bacillus Calmette–Guérin (BCG) vaccination. As it stands, other than inborn errors in key mycobacterial susceptibility genes both animal and human studies have not found many …

Trichomonas vaginalis and bacterial co-infections identified in reproductive age women
… The high rates of Trichomonas vaginalis and coinfections with C. trachomatis and N. gonorrhoeae observed in the asymptomatic women visiting the two clinics provide evidence that in certain key groups the simultaneous screening for all three pathogens should be performed.

The effect of human cytomegalovirus on neutrophil survival, autophagy, and extracellular traps
… HCMV and M. pneumoniae, both frequently found in coinfections in clinical contexts, are able to overcome neutrophil antipathogenic mechanisms to potentially enhance pathogen dissemination. These data provide not only a novel example of manipulation of an anti-viral response in a cell not …

A MULTIMODAL CLINICAL AND DIAGNOSTIC APPROACH TO BOVINE RESPIRATORY DISEASE COMPLEX (BRDC) IN DAIRY CALVES
… total and farm prevalence, and the prevalence of coinfections were evaluated. Pasteurella multocida and Mannheimia haemolytica were found in 37% and 12% of the samples, respectively, with a prevalence of 70% and 40% of the farms examined. The presence of Mycoplasma bovis was detected in 20% of the …

The impact of malaria on the immunogenicity and efficacy of mycobacterium bovis BCG vaccination against mycobacterium tuberculosis in mice
… The poor efficacy has been attributed in part to coinfections with many other unrelated pathogens that overlap geographically with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis). In this study, we used a murine model to investigate the effect of Plasmodium species virulence and the timing of …
