Journal ArticleDOI

Streptococcus pneumoniae colonisation: the key to pneumococcal disease.

TL;DR: The mechanism and epidemiology of colonisation, the complexity of relations within and between species, and the consequences of the different preventive strategies for pneumococcal colonisation are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The GenOMICC (Genetics Of Mortality In Critical Care) genome-wide association study in 2244 critically ill Covid-19 patients from 208 UK intensive care units is reported, finding evidence in support of a causal link from low expression of IFNAR2, and high expression of TYK2, to life-threatening disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

The microbiota of the respiratory tract: gatekeeper to respiratory health

TL;DR: The epidemiological, biological and functional evidence that support the physiological role of the respiratory microbiota in the maintenance of human health are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Colonisation by Streptococcus pneumoniae and Staphylococcus aureus in healthy children

TL;DR: A natural competition between colonisation with vaccine-type pneumococci and S aureus, which might explain the increase in S a Aureus-related otitis media after vaccination, is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Viral and bacterial interactions in the upper respiratory tract.

TL;DR: A theoretical model is proposed to summarize and illustrate mechanisms by which specific bacterial–bacterial and viral-bacterial interactions that occur in the upper respiratory niche might be mediated and provide better insight into the pathogenesis of respiratory diseases.
