The Role of Bacterial and Fungal Superinfection in Critical COVID-19

Viruses, 2022
Background: The range of reported rates of bacterial and fungal superinfections in patients with a severe course of COVID-19 is wide, suggesting a lack of standardised reporting.

Superinfection With Difficult-to-Treat Pathogens Significantly Reduces the Outcome of Periprosthetic Joint Infections

Antibiotics, 2021
Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a serious complication after total joint arthroplasty. In the course of a PJI, superinfections with pathogens that do not match the primary infecting micro-organism may occur.

Prevalence and Outcomes of Co-Infection and Superinfection With SARS-CoV-2 and Other Pathogens: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

PLoS ONE, 2021
Introduction The recovery of other pathogens in patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection has been reported, either at the time of a SARS-CoV-2 infection diagnosis (co-infection) or subsequently (superinfection).

A Filamentous Bacteriophage Protein Inhibits Type IV Pili To Prevent Superinfection of Pseudomonas aeruginosa

mBio, 2022
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen that causes infections in a variety of settings. Many P. aeruginosa isolates are infected by filamentous Pf bacteriophage integrated into the bacterial chromosome as a prophage.

Eicosanoid-Activated PPARα Inhibits NFκB-Dependent Bacterial Clearance During Post-Influenza Superinfection

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
Secondary bacterial infection (superinfection) post influenza is a serious clinical complication often leading to pneumonia and death. Eicosanoids are bioactive lipid mediators that play critical roles in the induction and resolution of inflammation ...

Coinfection and Superinfection in ICU Critically Ill Patients With Severe COVID-19 Pneumonia and Influenza Pneumonia: Are the Pictures Different?

Frontiers in Public Health, 2023
Background Similar to influenza, coinfections and superinfections are common and might result in poor prognosis. Our study aimed to compare the characteristics and risks of coinfections and superinfections in severe COVID-19 and influenza virus pneumonia.

Chronic HIV-1 Infection Frequently Fails to Protect Against Superinfection [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens, 2007
Reports of HIV-1 superinfection (re-infection) have demonstrated that the immune response generated against one strain of HIV-1 does not always protect against other strains.
