Observations related to pathogenesis of dengue hemorrhagic fever. 3. Virologic studies of fatal disease.

چکیده
Virologic study of fatal dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) is a problem of special importance to an understanding of the pathogenesis of this disease. As opposed to experience in patients surviving DHF, virus isolations from fatal cases are extremely rare, three having so far been reported in the literature.`2 This report summarizes studies on autopsy materials submitted to the SEATO Medical Research Virology Department during the period 1962-64.

متن کاملDengue and dengue hemorrhagic fever.
Dengue fever, a very old disease, has reemerged in the past 20 years with an expanded geographic distribution of both the viruses and the mosquito vectors, increased epidemic activity, the development of hyperendemicity (the cocirculation of multiple serotypes), and the emergence of dengue hemorrhagic fever in new geographic regions. In 1998 this mosquito-borne disease is the most important tro...

We have previously shown that disease differing widely in severity and prognosis is included in the entity, dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) in Thailand."2 Nearly 40 percent of 523 children hospitalized with DHF had a syndrome characterized by shock following a fever of several days duration. The rest had less severe febrile illnesses with various mild hemorrhagic manifestations. When sera from t...
متن کاملObservations related to pathogenesis of dengue hemorrhagic fever. I. Experience with classification of dengue viruses.
Two distinct syndromes associated with dengue virus infection are prevalent in tropical Asia; dengue fever, a benign disease characterized by fever, myalgia, leucopenia and a maculo-papular rash and dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF), accompanied by fever, shock, hemorrhagic diathesis and a significant mortality.1 The dengue viruses, a group of antigenically related members of the Group B arthropod...

Experimental studies of dengue infections in humans suggest that immunity to homologous virus challenge is probably of lifelong duration.' Individuals infected with one type of dengue virus and then exposed to a second serotype within 3-6 months may develop modified disease or no disease at all.' Studies of dengue infection in Bangkok have suggested that infection with one type of dengue virus ...
