Arboviral Encephalitis01:25

Arboviral Encephalitis

Arboviral encephalitis refers to brain inflammation caused by arthropod-borne viruses, particularly those transmitted through mosquito vectors. Among these, West Nile virus (WNV), a member of the Flaviviridae family, is a significant public health concern. WNV is an enveloped, positive-sense, single-stranded RNA virus. Human infection typically begins when an infected mosquito introduces the virus into the dermis during feeding. The primary transmission cycle involves birds as amplifying hosts...
Influenza01:27

Influenza

Influenza is an acute, highly communicable viral disease that affects the respiratory tract and is responsible for seasonal epidemics worldwide. Influenza A is the most prevalent type associated with widespread outbreaks and is subtyped based on two surface glycoproteins: hemagglutinin (H) and neuraminidase (N), as in H1N1. These glycoproteins are essential for viral infectivity, transmission, and immune recognition. Transmission occurs primarily through respiratory droplets and contaminated...
Infectious Diseases and Their Occurrence01:28

Infectious Diseases and Their Occurrence

Infectious diseases appear in populations through various transmission patterns, influenced by pathogen characteristics, population immunity, environmental conditions, and social behavior. Understanding these patterns is essential for effective public health surveillance and intervention. These categories—sporadic, outbreak, epidemic, pandemic, and endemic—help frame the nature and scope of disease events.Sporadic diseases occur irregularly and infrequently, without a predictable temporal or...
Diphtheria01:28

Diphtheria

Diphtheria is an acute, toxin-mediated infectious disease that primarily affects the upper respiratory tract. It is caused by Corynebacterium diphtheriae, a Gram-positive, pleomorphic rod that lacks spore-forming capability and exhibits a characteristic club-shaped morphology under microscopic examination. While C. diphtheriae can asymptomatically colonize mucosal surfaces, clinical disease manifests only when the bacterial strain is lysogenized by a specific β-corynephage. This phage...
Viral Meningitis01:18

Viral Meningitis

Viral meningitis is the most common form of meningitis and is often referred to as aseptic meningitis to indicate the absence of bacterial involvement. It is generally milder than bacterial meningitis, with symptoms including fever, headache, stiff neck, drowsiness, nausea, photophobia, and vomiting. Rarely, more severe manifestations or death may occur. Common causative agents include enteroviruses, particularly coxsackie A and B viruses and echoviruses, all members of the Enterovirus genus...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Entomology
  • Virology
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Dengue virus (family Flaviviridae) has four serotypes transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes, causing illnesses from mild to severe dengue hemorrhagic fever/dengue shock syndrome (DHF/DSS).
  • Globally, approximately 2.5 billion people are at risk, with 100 million new cases annually, presenting significant pathophysiological, economic, and ecological challenges.
  • The first dengue-like illness epidemic in India was in Madras (1780), with the first virologically confirmed dengue fever epidemic in Kolkata (1963-1964).

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the extent of scientific studies on dengue disease conducted by various research groups in India.
  • To assess the achievements of Indian scientists in dengue research and identify areas requiring further investigation.
  • To provide an overview of the current status of dengue research within the country.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of scientific studies on dengue disease in India.
  • Analysis of research contributions from different scientific groups across the country.
  • Synthesis of historical data and recent findings on dengue disease burden and research.

Main Results:

  • While numerous physicians have documented dengue disease in India over 50 years, scientific studies have been limited to a few centers.
  • Indian scientists have made considerable achievements in understanding and managing dengue.
  • Significant gaps remain in comprehensive scientific research to effectively combat dengue disease in India.

Conclusions:

  • Dengue poses a substantial and growing public health challenge in India.
  • Despite notable scientific contributions, further extensive research is crucial for impactful control and prevention strategies.
  • A coordinated and expanded research effort is needed to address the multifaceted problems associated with dengue in India.
