Each year, there are ∼50 million dengue infections and ∼500,000 individuals are hospitalized with dengue haemorrhagic fever, mainly in Southeast Asia, the Pacific and the Americas. Illness is produced by any of the four dengue virus serotypes. A global strategy aimed at increasing the ...
Every year, thousands of deaths occur due to dengue haemorrhagic fever/dengue shock syndrome (DHF/DSS). The control of the mosquito vector, Aedes aegypti, is currently the only method available to prevent dengue infections. Since vector control strategies alone have not been able to satisfactorily...
Expert opinion Dengue has become an intractable global health problem. Vector control has achieved only limited success in reducing the transmission of dengue. A dengue vaccine is needed as part of an integrated approach to dengue prevention and control since dengue poses a heavy economic cost to ...
Conclusion: Consistent awareness campaigns for dengue fever prevention and control enhances public knowledge and motivates individuals to adopt preventive practices in day to day routine life. To foster and maintain public interest, attractive beneficial public friendly practical economical practices need to ...
Arbovirus can be pathogenic to either animals or humans, such as the mosquito-borne dengue virus, tick-borne Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever virus, and midge-borne bluetongue virus. These pathogenic viruses replicate in both vertebrates and invertebrates. With the progression of factors including ...
Additionally, FCGR2A gene was associated with susceptibility to severe SARS-CoV (GWAS) and protection against severe Dengue hemorrhagic fever(GWAS) at the same time which adds to the complexity of pathogenesis and the need to characterization of the pathogenic effects of different mutations in vitro...
