The infection may lead to severe bleeding, shock, and death. This is called dengue shock syndrome (DSS). It's important to get medical attention right away if you have these symptoms. Diagnosing Dengue Fever Doctors can diagnose dengue infection with a blood test to check for the virus or ...
"With dengue fever infections continuing to increase health experts have convened meetings every Monday to discuss interventions undertaken in the fight against the virus," she said. "We acknowledge that increasing public awareness is one of the main strategies to reduce the risk of dengue transmissi...
Dengue virus (DENV) caused millions of infections around the world annually. Co-infection with different serotypes of DENV is associated with dengue hemorrhagic shock syndrome, leading to an estimate of 50% death rate. No approved therapies are currently available for the treatment of DENV ...
Dengue fever can occur when a mosquito carrying the arbovirus bites a human, passing the virus on to the new host. Once in the body, the virus travels to various glands where it multiplies. The virus can then enter the bloodstream. The presence of the virus within the blood vessels, espe...
(defined as white blood cell count < 4000/mm3), the calculated value of hemoconcentration (an increase in the concentration of red blood cells due to plasma loss), and dengue immune status (primary or post-primary) as measured from results for anti-dengue virus immunoglobulin G (IgG) ...
“There are approximately 390 million infections each year, and 550,000 people go on to develop haemorrhagic fever, which is a more severe form of the disease, with a five per cent death rate. “Although dengue is not common in Australia, it is still a significant public health concern. ...
The virus circulates in the blood of infected humans for 2 to 7 days; Aedes mosquitoes may acquire the virus when they feed on humans during this period. A pregnant woman can pass the dengue virus to her fetus during pregnancy or around the time of birth, although the rate of vertica...
“This can be someone who has a symptomatic dengue infection, someone who is yet to have a symptomatic infection (they are pre-symptomatic), but also people who show no signs of illness as well (they are asymptomatic),” said the WHO, referring to people who may have the virus in their...
Although host cells can provide machinery for the translation of viral mRNAs, energy, andenzymesfor genome replication, host cells are always like the battlefields initiating the responses to minimize the effects of virus attack. However, successful infections could decrease the immune response by modul...
(Death Inducer Obligator 1) to promote virus replication, as shown in Fig.3C. The silencing of DIDO1 results in reduced virus replication, indicating its significant role [35]. The dengue structural protein capsid is found to localize in the nucleus and target the four core histones, H2A, ...
