Early detection, case management, and implementation of precise control strategies are key findings for preventing local dengue transmission, which may serve for countries still struggling to combat imported dengue in the west pacific areas. 展开 关键词: dengue dengue virus molecular epidemiology policies...
We conclude that since there is no vaccine to prevent dengue infections, travelers to high-risk areas should take steps to prevent infection and that clinicians encountering patients with febrile illnesses after travel to such regions should consider a diagnosis of dengue fever. 展开 ...
In China, the knowledge of the underlying causes of heterogeneous distribution pattern of dengue fever in different high-risk areas is limited. A comparative study will help us understand the influencing factors of dengue in different high-risk areas. In
The aedes mosquito has adapted to human schedules, often feeding during the day, unlike other mosquito species. In addition, Lichtenberger called it "a city kid" because it often lives near human-populated areas. Aedes aegypti can also bite multiple people during one feeding. While most other ...
areas of the world, dengue outbreaks occur every year during the rainy season, when conditions are perfect for mosquito breeding. Dengue can pose a particular threat in highly populated regions because epidemics are more likely where there are large numbers of people in contact with large numbers ...
The global incidence of dengue is increasing, and many previously unaffected areas have reported local cases of the vector-borne disease in recent years. For the effective containment of local outbreaks health authorities rely on the prompt notification of new cases. However, due to severe under-re...

time, these things are quite localized in that countries that are near each other are more likely to have the same outbreak," said UI pathobiology professor Marilyn O'Hara Ruiz, who led the research. "We also found that outbreaks are more likely to co-occur in densely populated areas." ...
