Lodhia, Zohra; da Silva, Jorge Costa; Correia, Cristina; Cordeiro, Dora; João, Inês; Carreira, Teresa; Schäfer, Sandra; Aliyeva, Elzara; Portugal, ClaraObjectives: To survey genetic markers of potential antimicrobial resistance (AMR) to macrolides and fluoroquinolones among Chlamydia trachomatis–positive samples from the collection of the Portuguese National Reference Laboratory for Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs), and explore a multiplex PCR approach coupled with NGS to provide complementary information regarding a strain’s genomic backbone. Methods: A...

Lodhia, Zohra; Cordeiro, Dora; Correia, Cristina; João, Inês; Carreira, Teresa; Nunes, Alexandra; Ferreira, Rita; Schäfer, Sandra; Aliyeva, ElzaraBackground: Lymphogranuloma venereum (LGV) is a sexually transmitted infection caused by Chlamydia trachomatis ompA-genotypes L1–L3, with increasing numbers of detected cases across Europe. Here, we analysed diversity and temporal distribution of the LGV ompA-subvariants detected in Portugal between 2007 and 2023, in order to better understand the dissemination and diversification landscape of LGV strains. Meth...

Matos, Ana Cristina; Dias, Ana Paula; Morais, Márcia; Figueira, Luís; Martins, Maria Helena; Matos, Manuela; Pinto, Maria de Lurdes; Coelho, Ana CláudiaWe report granulomatous lymphadenitis in red deer (Cervus elaphus) in Portugal caused by coinfection with Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis, Mycobacterium bovis, and Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis, as demonstrated by molecular methods.
Granulomatous lymphadenitis caused by Nocardia species in hunted wild boar (Sus...
Matos, Ana Cristina; Dias, Ana Paula; Morais, Márcia; Matos, Manuela; Pinto, Maria de Lurdes; Coelho, Ana Cláudia; Figueira, LuísIn humans, Nocardia species have the potential to cause localised or disseminated infection (Cooper and others 2014). This genus has previously been detected in wild ungulates (Vemireddi and others 2007, Domenis and others 2009) but not in wild boar (Sus scrofa). Although hundreds of ungulates are hunted in the Iberian Peninsula annually, no case of nocardiosis from wild boar has been reported.

Matos, Ana Cristina; Figueira, Luís; Martins, Maria Helena; Matos, Manuela; Morais, Márcia; Dias, Ana Paula; Pinto, Maria de Lurdes; Coelho, Ana CláudiaA total of 49 road-killed red foxes were used for the detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTC) in Portugal. MTC infection was detected by PCR in 10 red foxes (20.4%; 95% confidence interval [CI] 8.8-31.2%) and confirmed in three (6.1%; 95% CI 0.0-7.9%) of them by microbiological culture. The complex was detected in 20 tissues out of 441 by PCR techniques (4.5%; 95% CI 16.3-23.7%) and in seven tissu...
