متن کاملLaboratory Diagnosis of Dengue Virus Infections.
Dengue diagnosis was one of the topics discussed at "the adult dengue" presentations. In this paper, a review is presented focusing on the main challenges of dengue laboratory diagnosis. Accurate and efficient diagnosis of dengue is important for clinical care, surveillance support, pathogenesis studies, and vaccine research. Laboratory diagnosis is also important for case confirmation. Laborat...
متن کاملLaboratory diagnosis in suspected cases of dengue.
We read with interest the paper by Ageep et al,1 in which laboratory investigations at Portsudan, Sudan on suspected cases of dengue during the acute phase of illness were directed to detect dengue virus specific IgM antibody for the disease confirmation. Surely, there would be no doubt regarding the 88% IgM positives, though there might have been odd positives even among those lacking IgM anti...
متن کاملChallenges in the Laboratory Diagnosis and Management of Dengue Infections
Dengue fever is considered the most important arthropod-borne viral diseases in terms of morbidity and mortality. An accurate and efficient diagnosis of dengue plays an important role in case confirmation. The virus may be isolated during the viremic phase (within day 5 of illness), from serum, plasma and peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Enzyme linked immunoassay (ELISA) has demonstrated the...
متن کاملLaboratory Diagnosis of Dengue Infection: Current Techniques and Future Strategies
Dengue is an increasingly significant vector-borne infectious disease, with over 50 million cases reported in more than half the world’s recognised independent states. Dengue fever, dengue haemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome are distinct clinical forms of an infection that is caused by Dengue Virus, a member of the Flaviviridae family. All four well characterized serotypes of the virus...
