Dengue is a significant mosquito-borne viral disease affecting millions globally, with no available vaccine. Early recognition and prompt treatment are crucial for limiting severe dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) and mortality.

Area of Science:

  • Epidemiology
  • Infectious Diseases
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Dengue viral infections are a major global mosquito-borne disease.
  • Annual incidence includes 100 million dengue fever cases and 500,000 dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) cases.
  • Dengue is endemic in 112 countries, disproportionately affecting children under 15 with DHF.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the epidemiology of dengue infections.
  • To discuss the dengue virus, its mosquito vector, and clinical features.
  • To outline management and control strategies for dengue.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of dengue epidemiology.
  • Analysis of clinical features and pathogenesis.
  • Summary of current management and control approaches.

Main Results:

  • Dengue presents a spectrum of illness from asymptomatic to severe forms like DHF and dengue shock syndrome.
  • No vaccine is currently available for dengue prevention.
  • Effective disease management hinges on early recognition and prompt treatment.

Conclusions:

  • Dengue remains a critical global health challenge requiring integrated control strategies.
  • Understanding dengue's epidemiology, transmission, and clinical spectrum is vital for public health interventions.
  • Continued research and public health efforts are needed to combat dengue's impact.
