Abstract
The emergence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and multidrug resistance (MDR) among microorganisms to commonly used antibiotics is a growing concern in both human and veterinary medicine. Companion animals play a significant role in the epidemiology of AMR, as their population is continuously increasing, posing a risk of disseminating AMR, particularly to strains of public health importance, such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus strains. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the prevalence of AMR and MDR in commensal and infection-causing Staphylococcus spp. in dogs and cats in Valencia region. For this purpose, 271 samples were taken from veterinary centers to assess antimicrobial susceptibility against 20 antibiotics, including some of the most important antibiotics for the treatment of Staphylococcus infections, including the five last resort antibiotics in this list. Of all the samples, 187 Staphylococcus spp. strains were recovered from asymptomatic and skin-diseased dogs and cats, of which S. pseudintermedius (≈60%) was more prevalent in dogs, while S. felis (≈50%) was more prevalent in cats. In the overall analysis of the isolates, AMR was observed for all antibiotics tested, including those crucial in human medicine. Furthermore, over 70% and 30% of the strains in dogs and cats, respectively, exhibited MDR. This study highlights the significance of monitoring the trends in AMR and MDR among companion animals. The potential contribution of these animals to the dissemination of AMR and its resistance genes to humans, other animals, and their shared environment underscores the necessity for adopting a One Health approach.

Abstract
The role of dysbiosis in the development and progression of oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs) remains largely unknown. Here, we aim to characterize and compare the oral microbiome of homogeneous leucoplakia (HL), proliferative verrucous leukoplakia (PVL), oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), and OSCC preceded by PVL (PVL-OSCC). Fifty oral biopsies from HL (n = 9), PVL (n = 12), OSCC (n = 10), PVL-OSCC (n = 8), and healthy (n = 11) donors were obtained. The sequence of the V3-V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene was used to analyze the composition and diversity of bacterial populations. In the cancer patients, the number of observed amplicon sequence variants (ASVs) was lower and Fusobacteriota constituted more than 30% of the microbiome. PVL and PVL-OSCC patients had a higher abundance of Campilobacterota and lower Proteobacteria than any other group analyzed. A penalized regression was performed to determine which species were able to distinguish groups. HL is enriched in Streptococcus parasanguinis, Streptococcus salivarius, Fusobacterium periodonticum, Prevotella histicola, Porphyromonas pasteri, and Megasphaera micronuciformis; PVL is enriched in Prevotella salivae, Campylobacter concisus, Dialister pneumosintes, and Schaalia odontolytica; OSCC is enriched in Capnocytophaga leadbetteri, Capnocytophaga sputigena, Capnocytophaga gingivalis, Campylobacter showae, Metamycoplasma salivarium, and Prevotella nanceiensis; and PVL-OSCC is enriched in Lachnospiraceae bacterium, Selenomonas sputigena, and Prevotella shahii. There is differential dysbiosis in patients suffering from OPMDs and cancer. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study comparing the oral microbiome alterations in these groups; thus, additional studies are needed.

Abstract
Background To analyze the presence of salivary Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) DNA in oral squamous cell carcinoma and potentially malignant oral disorders. Material and Methods Three groups were studied: Group 1 (12 oral squamous cell carcinomas (OSCC)), Group 2 (12 potentially malignant oral disorders (PMD)) and Group 3 (47 healthy controls). EBV DNA salivary analysis was performed by PCR. Results The highest percentage of positive salivary EBV DNA corresponded to the OSCC group (58.3%), followed by the PMD group (41.7%) and the controls (40.4%). The differences between groups were not statistically significant, however (p>0.05). Conclusions Salivary EBV DNA was more prevalent in OSCC than in PMD or the controls. Key words:EBV DNA, saliva, oral squamous cell carcinoma, oral leukoplakia.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Pneumococcal 13-valent vaccine (PCV-13) has a potential role in preventing bacteraemic pneumococcal pneumonia and its complications, but little is known about its ability to specifically prevent respiratory complications. Our aim were to analyse the pneumococcal serotypes associated with the development of respiratory complications and the potential role of PCV-13 in preventing respiratory complications in bacteraemic pneumococcal pneumonia. MATERIAL AND METHODS We analysed demographic characteristics, comorbidities, antibiotic resistances and the outcomes of a cohort of 65 vaccine-naïve bacteraemic pneumococcal pneumonias, stratified by the pneumococcal serotypes included in PCV13 vs. those not included. Complications were clustered as follows: respiratory complications (hypoxemic respiratory failure; mechanical ventilation), systemic complications (septic shock; multiorgan failure), suppurative complications (empyema; pleural effusion; lung abscess). RESULTS From a population of 65 CAP-SP, 47.7% of the isolates belonged to PCV-13 serotypes group. No differences in comorbidities or clinical manifestations were found between groups. With regard to biochemical parameters, we found more profound hypoxemia levels in PCV-13 serotypes group comparing to non-vaccine group [PaO2/FiO2 209 (63) vs. 268 (57); p=0.007]. Global complications were identified in 69.2% (45 patients), and the most frequent were respiratory complications, found in 47.7%. Respiratory complications were detected more frequently in PCV-13 groups compared to non-vaccine groups (61.3% vs. 35.3%; p=0.036). Overall 30-day mortality was 30.8%. Mortality was similar between both groups (25.8% vs. 35.3%; p=0.408). CONCLUSIONS Pneumococcal 13-valent conjugate vaccine includes the serotypes which cause more respiratory complications in our series; these serotypes were not associated with higher mortality in our series. PCV-13 may have a potential role in preventing respiratory complications due to bacteraemic pneumonoccal pneumonia.

Abstract
The activity of new anti-HSV-1 chemical structures, designed by virtual combinatorial chemical synthesis and selected by a computational screening, is determined by an in vitro assay. A virtual library of phenol esters and anilides was formed from two databases of building blocks: one with carbonyl fragments and the other containing both substituted phenoxy and phenylamino fragments. The library of virtually assembled compounds was computationally screened, and those compounds which were selected by our mathematical model as active ones were finally synthesized and tested. Our antiviral activity model is a "tandem" of four linear functions of topological graph-theoretical descriptors. A given chemical structure was selected as active if it satisfies every discriminant equation in that model. The final result was that five new structures were selected, synthesized, and tested: all of them demonstrated activity, and three showed appreciable anti-HSV-1 activity, with IC(50) values of 0.9 microM. The same model, applied to a database of known compounds, has identified the anti-herpes activity of the following compounds: 3,5-dimethyl-4-nitroisoxazole, nitrofurantoin, 1-(pyrrolidinocarbonylmethyl)piperazine, nebularine, cordycepin, adipic acid, thymidine, alpha-thymidine, inosine, 2, 4-diamino-6-(hydroxymethyl)pteridine, 7-(carboxymethoxy)-4-methylcoumarin, 5-methylcytidine, and others that showed less activity.
