The emergence of the coronavirus pandemic facilitated the acquisition of mutations in the SARS-CoV-2 genome, resulting in the appearance of new variants over the past three years. We previously identified several taxa associated with the clinical outcome of COVID-19 disease in a retrospective study involving 120 patients (infected patients and negative subjects). However, little is known about whether the different variants could influence variations in the composition of the nasopharyngeal microbiota.

Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is an inflammatory disease of the paranasal sinuses, and microbial dysbiosis associated with CRS is thought to be a key driver of host inflammation that contributes to disease progression. is a common upper respiratory tract (URT) pathobiont associated with higher carriage rates in CRS populations, where -secreted toxins can be identified in CRS tissues. Although many genera of bacteria colonize the URT, few account for the majority of sequencing reads.

Article Synopsis
  • Respiratory infections, primarily caused by viruses, are a major health issue globally, and a study was conducted in rural Senegal to investigate the presence of viruses and bacteria in symptomatic and asymptomatic individuals.
  • The research found that 83.6% of symptomatic individuals tested positive for at least one respiratory virus, with influenza A, metapneumovirus, and enterovirus being notably more common among those with symptoms, while 21.8% of asymptomatic individuals also had viral infections.
  • Additionally, 82.0% of symptomatic subjects carried at least one respiratory bacterium, with Moraxella catarrhalis and Streptococcus pneumoniae being the most common, highlighting the need for further surveillance of these pathogens

The SARS-CoV-2 virus is still causing a worldwide problem. The virus settles primarily on the nasal mucosa, and the infection and its course depend on individual susceptibility. Our aim was to investigate the nasopharynx composition's role in the individual susceptibility.
