Coinfection of enteric fever and hepatitis A
BMJ Case Reports, 2022Poor sanitation and contaminated food and water are major risk factors for several infectious diseases like enteric fever and hepatitis A, but their coinfection is uncommon. Although the liver is frequently affected in typhoid fever, substantial hepatic dysfunction in an appropriately treated patient is uncommon.

Improved screening of the blood supply and safer injection practice have led to a decreased prevalence of hepatitis C virus (HCV) worldwide over the past decade. However, those who are coinfected with HIV and HCV experience synergistic interaction between the viruses, leading to accelerated liver fibrosis and possibly increased HIV progression.

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.

Current HIV/AIDS Reports, 2013
Liver disease is currently one of the leading causes of hospitalization and death in HIV-positive individuals. Coinfection with the hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major contributor to this trend. Besides hepatic damage, which is enhanced in the presence of HIV-associated immunosuppression, HCV may contribute to disease in coinfected individuals by ...

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.

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.

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.

Cholera‐schistosomiasis coinfection dynamics
Optimal Control Applications and Methods, 2019SummaryThe present work investigates the coinfection dynamics of the cholera and schistosomiasis diseases. The steady states of the model are examined. We obtain results for the model in detail and present the stability results whenever the basic reproduction number is less than unity ( ).
