Area of Science:

  • Infectious Diseases
  • Clinical Medicine
  • Biochemistry

Context:

  • Infectious mononucleosis diagnosis relies on clinical presentation, blood work, and serology.
  • Despite established criteria, misdiagnosis remains common, leading to inappropriate treatment.
  • This study analyzes clinical and biochemical markers in a large patient cohort.

Purpose:

  • To present clinical features and laboratory findings of infectious mononucleosis.
  • To highlight key diagnostic indicators for accurate identification.
  • To improve understanding and management of the disease.

Summary:

  • Analyzed 500 patients (aged 15-35) diagnosed with infectious mononucleosis.
  • Evaluated clinical signs, symptoms, and laboratory results including liver enzymes and bilirubin.
  • Emphasized characteristic early symptoms: persistent fever, pharyngitis, lymphadenopathy, hepatosplenomegaly.

Impact:

  • Aims to reduce misdiagnosis rates and improve patient outcomes.
  • Provides valuable data for clinicians managing infectious mononucleosis.
  • Contributes to a better understanding of the disease's clinical and biochemical profile.
