The buffalo co-infection conundrum
Trends in Parasitology, 2015Parasitic worms modulate host immunity, affecting co-infection with Mycobacterium bovis (BTB). Ezenwa and Jolles suggested that anthelmintic treatment reduced BTB-induced mortality, but increased BTB spread. Reduced mortality should be weighed against the risk of increasing pathogen spread when adopting this strategy for human treatment of ...

CO-INFECTION WITH MALARIA AND LEPTOSPIROSIS
The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2003Malaria and leptospirosis are both common in the tropics. Simultaneous infections are possible, although not previously reported. We report two cases of malaria from an area of Thailand on the Thailand-Myanmar border with compelling serologic evidence of simultaneous acute leptospirosis. One was a case of infection with Plasmodium falciparum with acute

The immunology and ecology of co‐infection
Molecular Ecology, 2013It's a wormy world. All natural vertebrate populations are subject to infection and re‐infection with helminth parasites (Stoll 1947). Even in humans, around one billion people in developing nations are infected by one or several of a range of helminth parasites (Lustigman et al. 2012).

This chapter describes the epidemiology, current spread, and clinical aspects of HIV/Leishmania co-infection and highlights the recently released guidelines of WHO on their management. It discusses the development of resistant Leishmania strains for existing anti-Leishmania drugs and the complexity of chemotherapy for Leishmania/HIV co-infection, which

Hepatitis C and HIV co-infection
International Journal of STD & AIDS, 2004HIV accelerates progression of hepatitis C virus (HCV)-related liver disease. There are conflicting data on the effect of HCV on the risk of HIV progression and CD4 response to highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). Long-term prospective cohort studies are clearly required to resolve these issues.

HIV-1 vaccines and co-infection
Expert Opinion on Biological Therapy, 2004Vaccines are an economically efficient means of controlling viral infections, and it is likely that a vaccine against HIV-1 will be the most effective way of controlling the global AIDS crisis. However, an effective vaccine has not yet been attainable and in developing countries co-infection with protozoa and other chronic diseases adds another level ...

Tuberculous meningitis and co-infection with HIV
Annals of Tropical Paediatrics, 1998The clinical, laboratory and radiological features of 30 children with clinically diagnosed tuberculous meningitis (TBM) who were HIV-seronegative were compared with those of ten HIV-infected children with TBM. Such comparative data are not currently available in the literature and so are an important addition to our knowledge of the HIV-TB co ...

Viral hepatitis and HIV co-infection
Antiviral Research, 2010Chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is overall recognised in 10% of HIV+ persons worldwide, with large differences according to geographical region. Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection affects 25% of HIV+ individuals, with greater rates ( approximately 75%) in intravenous drug users and persons infected through contaminated blood or blood ...

The immunology of Leishmania/HIV co-infection
Immunologic Research, 2013Leishmaniases are emerging as an important disease in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected persons living in several sub-tropical and tropical regions around the world, including the Mediterranean. The HIV/AIDS pandemic is spreading at an alarming rate in Africa and the Indian subcontinent, areas with very high prevalence of leishmaniases.
