Pets from COVID-19 owners were screened for SARS-CoV-2 (April–May 2020). From 23 pets, an asymptomatic cat showed positive RT-qPCRs results oropharyngeal swab (negative rectal swab). Remaining pets negative. This suggests that cats can contract the virus their infected and may act as potential hosts SARS-CoV-2. Their role in carrying live or infectious viruses disseminating them needs more investigation.
An integrated digital droplet PCR system is presented that enables generation, amplification, and readout within a single reaction chamber on centrifugal microfluidic LabDisk.
ABSTRACT Introduction Tick‐borne diseases have a significant impact on public and animal health represent considerable financial burden livestock farming. However, in many regions of Latin America, comprehensive epidemiological data, including species identification, geographical distribution molecular profiling ticks their associated pathogens, remain scarce. The aims the present study were: 1) to establish tick collected from domestic animals 2) molecularly characterise rickettsial...
During April-May 2020, the presence of respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in pets living with disease 2019 (COVID-19) owners was analyzed. From 23 pets, a cat without clinical symptoms showed positive results for SARS-CoV-2 oropharyngeal swab using three RT-qPCR assays (negative rectal swab). not detected remaining pets. Our finding suggests that cats may act as asymptomatic dispersers SARS-CoV-2, although viral transmission from animals to humans seems unlikely.
During recent decades, a tick-borne rickettsial syndrome, characterized by eschar and painful lymphadenopathy after Dermacentor marginatus-bite, has been described as an emerging rickettsiosis in Europe. Our group named it DEBONEL (Dermacentor-borne-necrosis-erythema-lymphadenopathy), regarding the vector main infection signs. Other groups called TIBOLA (tick-borne-lymphadenophathy) and, later, SENLAT (scalp-eschar-and-neck-lymphadenopathy-after-tick-bite), expanding, latter, etiological...
We report a confirmed case of Candidatus Neoehrlichia mikurensis infection in woman Spain who had previous hematologic malignancy. N. infections should be especially suspected immunocompromised patients exhibit persistent fever and venous thrombosis, particularly if they live environments where ticks are prevalent.
Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome (RSTS; OMIM #180849, #613684) is a rare autosomal dominant genetic condition characterized by broad thumbs and halluces, facial dysmorphism, short stature variable degree of intellectual disability. RSTS associated with mutations in CREBBP EP300 genes 50–60% 5–8% cases, respectively. The majority cases are de novo heterozygous mutations. Here we describe familial case, novel mutation. proband was 9 years old female, mild learning difficulties. Her mother, who also...
Hereditary diffuse gastric cancer (HDGC) is an inherited form of type cancer. Germline CDH1 mutations have been identified in approximately 15-50 % affected kindred that meet the clinical criteria for HDGC. If any met individual referred to genetic counseling and testing offered. In this report we present case a Spanish family with HDGC harboring novel mutation. A 47 year-old female diagnostic adenocarcinoma some her relatives were tested. Study entire gene, including intron-exon boundaries,...
Alport syndrome is an inherited renal disorder characterized by glomerular basement membrane lesions with hematuria, proteinuria and frequent hearing defects ocular abnormalities. The disease associated mutations in genes encoding α3, α4, or α5 chains of type IV collagen, namely COL4A3 COL4A4 chromosome 2 COL4A5 X. In contrast to the well-known X-linked autosomal recessive phenotypes, there very little information about dominant. view wide spectrum exact diagnosis sometimes difficult...
Creatine transporter (CT) deficiency is an X-linked disorder caused by mutations in the SLC6A8 gene. We describe a clinical, biochemical and molecular examination of child with cerebral creatine deficiency. Increased urinary creatine/creatinine ratio, abnormal brain proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy reduced transport confirmed clinical diagnosis. analysis revealed novel mutation that was hemizygous not detected his mother. CT should be considered children, especially males, mental retardation.

Abstract Leishmaniasis, endemic in Spain, displays rising incidence rates, notably the Region of Murcia. Sandfly surveillance and Leishmania screening 2021 uncovered infantum L. adleri . While current diagnostic methods primarily target , our study underscores importance broader species for accurate diagnosis understanding disease dynamics. The detection previously undescribed Europe, highlights need expanded research to investigate its presence implications human animal health.

Adult brachycera biting flies can significantly impact livestock through both direct effects (reduction of food intake, disturbance, painful bites, and blood loss) indirect (pathogen transmission), leading to substantial economic losses production damage. This study aimed assess the presence blood-sucking in six mixed-animal farm environments on island Mallorca (Balearic Islands, Spain) by employing multiple trapping methods. Additionally, distribution maps fly species recorded Spain were...
Coronaviruses have a major impact on human and animal health. The SARS-CoV-2, beta coronavirus responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic, is clear example. It continues circulating causes deaths, its high replication rate results in numerous variants. adapt to birds mammals constitute serious threat, new viruses are likely emerge. Urban pigeons (Columbiformes) synanthropic of great interest from ‘One Health’ perspective, due their interaction with humans other animals. Aware that they may act as...
