1. Respiratory Infections: While Corynebacterium pseudodiphtheriticum is generally considered to be a commensal bacterium in the respiratory tract, it can occasionally cause respiratory tract infections, such as bronchitis, pneumonia, or upper respiratory tract infections, particularly in immunocompromised individuals or those with pre-existing respiratory conditions.

2. Endocarditis: In rare cases, Corynebacterium pseudodiphtheriticum has been implicated in infective endocarditis, an infection of the inner lining of the heart chambers and heart valves. Endocarditis caused by Corynebacterium pseudodiphtheriticum typically occurs in individuals with underlying heart conditions or those who have undergone cardiac surgery.

3. Bacteremia and Sepsis: Corynebacterium pseudodiphtheriticum can potentially enter the bloodstream and cause bacteremia, which may lead to sepsis, a severe and life-threatening systemic inflammatory response to infection. Bacteremia and sepsis associated with Corynebacterium pseudodiphtheriticum are more common in immunocompromised individuals or those with indwelling medical devices, such as central venous catheters.

4. Nosocomial Infections: Corynebacterium pseudodiphtheriticum has been identified as an opportunistic pathogen in healthcare settings and can occasionally cause nosocomial infections, particularly in patients undergoing invasive procedures or those receiving prolonged hospital care.

Legend

• The interactions are based on data from 1000 healthy individuals using shotgun 10M reads Precision Biome, a provider in full conformity to EU regulations for health information
• The width of the lines indicates R² (the coefficient of determination)
• Green indicates positive slope
• Red indicates negative
• Interactions are not two way because incidence of each bacteria are different
