Atypical bacterial co-infections among patients with COVID-19: A study from India

Rama Chaudhry et al.

Summary: Emerging evidence suggests co-infection with atypical bacteria in COVID-19 patients, potentially leading to clinical and laboratory diagnostic challenges. Patients with infections of Mycoplasma pneumoniae or Chlamydia pneumoniae are more likely to develop ARDS, require respiratory support, have longer hospital stays, and a higher mortality rate compared to those infected with SARS-CoV-2 alone.

Tuberculosis and COVID-19 interaction: A review of biological, clinical and public health effects

D. Visca et al.

Summary: This review aims to report the available evidence on the interaction between tuberculosis (TB) and COVID-19, discussing their differences and similarities, immunological features, diagnostics, epidemiological and clinical characteristics, as well as public health implications. The shared dysregulation of immune responses in COVID-19 and TB poses a dual risk, and further evidence is needed to determine the impact of COVID-19 on active TB disease. Ongoing studies are expected to provide additional evidence on the potential risks and interactions between the two diseases.

Nasopharyngeal Microbiome Signature in COVID-19 Positive Patients: Can We Definitively Get a Role to Fusobacterium periodonticum?

Carmela Nardelli et al.

Summary: SARS-CoV-2 infection leads to significant differences in the nasopharyngeal microbiome composition between patients and controls. The reduction of certain bacteria, such as Fusobacterium periodonticum (FP), may affect the pathogenesis of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Further research is needed to elucidate the specific role of FP in COVID-19.

Nasopharyngeal Microbial Communities of Patients Infected With SARS-CoV-2 That Developed COVID-19

Maria Paz Ventero et al.

Summary: This study investigated the nasopharynx microbial community of patients with different severity levels of COVID-19, revealing differences in composition of specific OTUs and complexity of co-abundance networks. Taxa with differential abundances could potentially serve as biomarkers for COVID-19 severity, but validation with larger sample sizes is needed.

Acute SARS-CoV-2 infection is associated with an increased abundance of bacterial pathogens, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa in the nose

Nicholas S. Rhoades et al.

Summary: Research on SARS-CoV-2 infection found a unique nasal microbiome in infected patients, with an increased abundance of bacterial pathogens. Additionally, a strong antiviral innate immune response and neuronal damage were observed in the nasal epithelia of infected patients at the early stage of infection.

COVID-19 and Tuberculosis Coinfection: An Overview of Case Reports/Case Series and Meta-Analysis

Wan-mei Song et al.

Summary: COVID-TB cases predominantly affect males, with non-survivors being older and more likely to have comorbidities such as hypertension and symptoms of dyspnea. Most patients received anti-TB therapy, and there are certain predictors of worse prognosis among COVID-TB cases. The study suggests that COVID-TB patients are more likely to suffer severe disease or death compared to COVID-19 patients.

Summary: The B.1.617.2 (Delta) variant of SARS-CoV-2 has lower sensitivity to antibodies and higher replication efficiency compared to other lineages, which may contribute to its dominance and reduced vaccine effectiveness, highlighting the need for continued infection control measures post-vaccination.

Retrospective review analysis of COVID-19 patients co-infected with Mycoplasma pneumoniae

Abhinav Choubey et al.

Summary: In this study, 8 cases of COVID-19 patients co-infected with M. pneumoniae were identified, with most patients being Caucasian and aged between 44-89 years. Common symptoms included dyspnea, cough, and fever, along with abnormal C-reactive protein, lymphopenia, neutrophilia, bilateral consolidation, and ground-glass opacities in most patients. Two patients required intensive care and unfortunately died. Further research is needed to examine the role of procalcitonin in excluding bacterial co-infection and to evaluate the impact of co-infection on the morbidity and mortality of COVID-19 patients.
