Blastocystis hominis Infection in Cuban AIDS Patients [PDF]

open access: yesMemórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1997
Blastocystis hominis, previously known as a yeast, is being considered a potential pathogenic protozoan by different authors (RR Babb & S Wagener 1989 West J Med 151: 518-519, SMH Qadri et al. 1989 J Clin Microbiol 27: 2407-2409). However, others believe it to be a commensal microorganism (T Sun et al. 1989 Am J Gastroenterol 84: 1543-1547, H Senay & D

Gut microbiota profiles in diarrheic patients with co-occurrence of Clostridioides difficile and Blastocystis.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Blastocystis and Clostridioides difficile co-occurrence is considered a rare event since the colonization by Blastocystis is prevented under a decrease in beneficial bacteria in the microbiota when there is C. difficile infection (CDI). This scenario has
