Pathogenesis of HIV-HCV coinfection
Current Infectious Disease Reports, 2007Hepatitis C virus (HCV) and HIV-1 are often harbored in the same host, establishing chronic infections typically characterized by persistent viremia. HIV-1 has deleterious effects on the course of HCV infection by increasing the rate of HCV viral persistence, quantitative HCV RNA levels, and ultimately the liver fibrosis progression rate.

HIV and hepatitis C coinfection
Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2008AbstractThe significant burden of HIV/hepatitis C virus (HCV) coinfection is increasingly recognized worldwide, and in particular within the Asia–Pacific region. Individuals who are coinfected with both viruses are at risk from accelerated liver disease and consequently cirrhosis, liver failure, and hepatocellular carcinoma.

HIV and HCV coinfection in haemophilia
Haemophilia, 2004Summary. A substantial number of haemophilic patients are infected with both human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and hepatitis C (HCV). HIV has been shown to accelerate the course of HCV chronic liver disease and there is evidence that HCV infection may worsen the prognosis of HIV.

Coinfection and the evolution of parasite virulence
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 1995Analyses of the selection pressures acting on parasite virulence are made more complicated when individual hosts can simultaneously harbour many different strains or genotypes of a parasite. Here we explore the evolutionary dynamics of host-parasite associations in which individual hosts can be coinfected with many different parasite strains.

Leprosy coinfection with kala‐azar
International Journal of Dermatology, 2009AbstractLeprosy and visceral leishmanias are endemic in Nepal and are both major public health problems. Two patients of visceral leishmaniasis developed leprosy during the course of the disease. Leprosy and visceral leishmaniasis share a similar immunological spectrum and can occur concomitantly in endemic regions.

After reminding the epidemiology of the HTLV1 infection the authors sum up the actually recommended diagnosis procedure. --Case finding by ELISA, confirmation by WESTERN-BLOT and/or RIPA (anti-gag and anti-env specificities), or even PCR which makes specific diagnosis of HTLV1/2.

Viral hepatitis and HIV coinfection
Journal of Hepatology, 2008Persons at high risk for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection are also likely to be at risk for other infectious pathogens, including hepatitis B virus (HBV) or hepatitis C virus (HCV). These are bloodborne pathogens transmitted through similar routes; for example, via injection drug use (IDU), sexual contact, or from mother to child during ...

[Cytomegalovirus coinfection].
Klinicka mikrobiologie a infekcni lekarstviThe rapid advancement of modern pharmacological and surgical therapeutic interventions is often accompanied by potential disruptions to the immune system, both permanent and transient. Consequently, life-threatening infectious complications may emerge, which were either absent or exceedingly rare in the past.
