Article Synopsis
- The oropharyngeal microbiome may influence the immune response during respiratory virus infections, including COVID-19, with evidence suggesting that SARS-CoV-2 infection alters microbiome profiles.
- A multicenter study evaluated the microbiomes of healthy individuals and COVID-19 patients at various infection severities, finding that moderate to severe cases exhibited significant microbial imbalances compared to mild cases.
- Machine learning models identified specific microbial signatures, particularly involving Neisseria and Haemophilus species, that could predict mortality in COVID-19 patients, indicating that while the infection impacts microbiome, other factors also play a role.
