Systematic Review of the Ovitrap Surveillance of Aedes Mosquitoes in Brazil (2012–2022)
Investigation published in Travel Medicine and Infectious Disease
Background: Arthropod-borne diseases primarily affect tropical and subtropical regions, exhibiting seasonal patterns that peak during hot and rainy months when conditions favor mosquito vector proliferation. Factors such as high temperatures, elevated humidity, rainfall, urbanization, and the abundance of natural and artificial breeding sites influence Aedes vector dynamics. In this context, arboviruses pose significant public health challenges, likely worsened by global warming. In Brazil, Aedes (Stegomyia) aegypti (Linnaeus, 1762) is the primary vector for yellow fever, dengue, chikungunya, …

Field evaluation of the P22 ELISA for diagnosis of caprine tuberculosis in an endemic area
Frontiers in veterinary science publish this investigation article
Animal tuberculosis (TB) affects a wide range of domestic species, including goats. TB eradication programs in goats are based on cell-based techniques such as the single and comparative intradermal tuberculin test (SITT and CITT, respectively). In recent years, an ELISA technique based on the P22 protein complex (P22 ELISA), has emerged as a valuable tool for TB diagnosis. The aim of the study was to evaluate the performance of the P22 ELISA in the context of a caprine TB eradication program using serum, individual milk and bulk tank milk (BTM) samples in order to define its usefulness in cla…

Global dissemination of npmA mediated pan-aminoglycoside resistance via a mobile genetic element in Gram-positive bacteria
Investigation published in Nature Communications
The npmA gene, encoding a 16S rRNA methyltransferase, confers resistance to all clinically available aminoglycosides, posing a significant threat to effective antibiotic therapy. We analyze 1,932,812 bacterial genomes to investigate the distribution and mobilization of npmA variants. npmA is not found in Gram-negative bacteria, where it was originally described, but is identified among Gram-positive bacteria, predominantly as the npmA2 variant in the globally distributed Clostridioides difficile ST11 lineage. We also detect npmA2 in two vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium isolates from a…

Estudio histopatológico e inmunohistoquÃmico de la expresión de integrinas en el carcinoma gástrico canino
Degree Final Project defended by Adrian Arribas Mercado
Gastric carcinoma represents 60–70% of gastric neoplasms in dogs. The malignancy of these neoplasms is based on cellular characteristics such as pleomorphism, anisocytosis, anisokaryosis, atypical mitoses and mitotic index among others; but undoubtedly, migration, infiltration and metastasis of neoplastic cells are the criteria that determine the invasiveness of a tumor. These criteria can be determined by immunohistochemical study of certain transmembrane proteins called integrins. These molecules are composed of two separate subunits, ? (alpha) and ? (beta) subunits, which combine to form …

Veterinaria forense: estudio de la senescencia celular en perros emaciados procedentes de abuso animal
Alba Revilla Ruiz defended this Degree Final Project
Animal abuse is an increasing concern in society, and veterinary forensic pathologists play a critical role in combating maltreatment by identifying non-accidental injuries in animals. This study aimed to comparatively analyze the macro and microscopic lesions, as well as p53 immunoexpression, in dogs with varying degrees of emaciation (Body Condition 1, 2 and 3) from suspected cases of abuse. Anatomopathological findings were thoroughly examined, and immunohistochemical techniques were applied to key tissues to evaluate nuclear p53 expression as a marker of cellular damage and potential senes…

Determinación de la circulación del virus Toscana en lagomorfos de la Comunidad de Madrid
Degree Final Project defended by SofÃa Gansievich Levit
El virus Toscana (TOSV) es un flebovirus perteneciente a la familia Phenuiviridae, transmitido por flebótomos, principalmente de los géneros P. perniciosus y P. perfilewi. Este virus presenta neurotropismo y puede causar meningitis y meningoencefalitis. Desde su descubrimiento en Italia en 1971, se ha documentado su presencia en diversos paÃses del Mediterráneo, incluyendo España. A través de estudios serológicos y moleculares, se ha demostrado la circulación del virus en humanos y animales domésticos y silvestres, lo que indica una epidemiologÃa compleja y posiblemente infradiagnost…

What the environment hides: emerging use of non-invasive sampling in animal health
Profesión Veterinaria publish this article
Surveillance based on the detection and monitoring of veterinary pathogens is a fundamental pillar of health prevention, particularly relevant in the case of emerging agents. This has gained special interest in recent decades, driven by the "One Health" approach, which proposes monitoring animal health, protecting public health, and ensuring the health of ecosystems in a holistic manner. Furthermore, the emergence of new diseases, many of them zoonotic, raises the need to develop alternative strategies that complement and improve traditional detection systems, allowing us to overcome the logis…

Detection of Coxiella burnetti in wild rabbits in the Community of Madrid
Cindy López Sánchez defended this Degree Final Project
Q fever is an emerging zoonosis caused by the multi-host bacterium Coxiella burnetii, which has a worldwide distribution and affects numerous animal species. Spain is one of the countries that reports the most cases annually to the ECDC. Ruminants are the main source of infection for humans, although wildlife plays a significant role as a reservoir for this pathogen, particularly the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus), whose populations are increasing due to factors such as species traits, regional characteristics, and changes in interaction patterns between rabbits, domestic animals and …

Spatiotemporal Distribution and Clinical Characteristics of Zoonotic Tuberculosis, Spain, 2018-2022
Investigation article published in Emerging Infectious Diseases
Zoonotic tuberculosis (zTB) is a communicable disease that has major effects on both human and animal health. Spain reports the highest number of zTB cases in humans annually in the European Union. We describe the epidemiology of human cases of zTB caused by Mycobacterium bovis and M. caprae in Spain during 2018-2022. The incidence of M. bovis infection compared with M. tuberculosis infection was higher in patients who were native-born (adjusted odds ratio [aOR) 2.32, 95% CI 1.44-3.82), HIV-negative (aOR 3.39, 95% CI 1.24-14.0), or had extrapulmonary forms of TB (aOR 2.20, 95% CI 1.46-3.28). T…

On-farm dynamics of antibiotic resistance genes in Escherichia coli from hen gut microbiota during the commercial egg production cycle
PhD Thesis defense by Irene Aldea Ramos at the VISAVET Centre of the Complutense University of Madrid
Antibiotic resistance is a public health problem facing society, with fewer and fewer therapeutic options available for the treatment of infections caused by resistant bacteria. Production animals can transmit these resistant bacteria to humans through the food chain, so the use of antibiotics in these animals is restricted at both European and national level.
In this thesis, the role of the gut microbiota of animals (from day-old chicks to 84-85 weeks old laying hens) in the spread of antimicrobial resistance of Escherichia coli was studied in a commercial layer farm, providing a closed s…
