Dengue infection has expanded to other geographic areas in Indonesia due to changes in human ecology and behavior. I many tropical and subtropical areas of the world this viruses are endemic and causes periodic or annual outbreaks of disease. Among the complex and multifactors responsible for the increase of dengue cases, the transovarian mechanism may play an important role. This research was …
Dengue virus infection is an acute febrile diseased by 4 sero-type viruses. The transmission via mosquito vector Ae. Aegypti. The morbidity of dengue virus infection is quite high and the mortality below 5%. The most dangerous form is dengue shock syndrome, the mortality is very high. The effort to reduce morbidity and mortality is improvement of the clinical management and control of vector. T…
Aedes aegypti is the important is the important vector of dengue heamorrhagic fever (DHF), and there are several methods for virus detection in the disadvantages of being labor-intensive and requiring fluorescent microscope as well as cryofreezer. Newer methods involving enzyme conjugates such as peroxiase in conjunction with either polyclonal or monoclonal antibodies are greatly improved. With…
To investigate which recent infection could have caused the present dengue-like symptoms, in adult patients clinically fulfilling the WHO criteria for dengue, in which serologically were not confirmed for dengue virus infections. Prospective study. During an outbreak of dengue (between May) 1995 and May 1996) 118 consecutive adults (>13 years) suspected by the WHO 1997 case definition of DF or …
Dengue infection with its broad clinical spectrum remains a health problem in Indonesia. An aberrant immune response in plasma leakage of dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) caused by increase of monocytes and lymphocytes. The aim of this study was to investigate that monocytosis and lymphocytosis were risk factor of DHF in children. A case control study was conducted at Childe Health DepartmentHasa…
process Dengue shock syndrome (DSS) is the most severe from of dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) and has a high mortality. There are two major pathological changes in DHF determine the severity of sisease, plasma leakage and bleeding. Cytokines release during the immune responase in dengue virus have been throught to be mediators of the. The study involed 50 children with DSS of whom 13 (26%) died…
