Dengue (pronounced DENG-gay) can affect anyone but tends to be more severe in people with compromised immune systems. Because it is caused by one of four serotypes of virus, it is possible to get dengue fever multiple times. However, an attack of dengue produces immunity for a lifetime to that particular serotype to which the patient was exposed.

This presentation is for medical students and general practitioner It contains detailed account of epidemiology, causation, clinical features, investigations,diagnosis, treatment of dengue fever. contains pictures. useful latest and comprehensive information about Dengue. It also contains dengue case definitions of WHO.It also lists the complications of dengue. It enumerates the warning signs for more severe form of dengue fever. Includes risk factors for dengue shock syndrome and dengue hemorrhagic fever.It includes a list if clinical markers of dengue. Also details about the habits of the dengue vector , aedes aegypti mosquito
Dengue, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), is the most rapidly spreading mosquito-borne viral disease in the world. It infects between 50 million and 100 million people annually, with 500,000 cases of the more severe infection known as dengue hemorrhagic fever. It causes 22,000 deaths every year, mainly children and young adults.
Dengue fever is the fastest emerging arboviral infection spread
by Aedes mosquitoes with major public health consequences in
over 100 tropical and sub-tropical countries in South-East Asia,
the Western Pacific, and South and Central America. Up to 2.5
billion people globally live under the threat of dengue fever and its
severe forms—dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) or dengue shock
syndrome (DSS). More than 75% of these people, or approximately
1.8 billion, live in the Asia-Pacific Region. As the disease spreads to
new geographical areas, the frequency of the outbreaks is increasing
along with changing disease epidemiology. It is estimated that 50
a million cases of dengue fever occur worldwide annually and half a
million people suffering from DHF require hospitalization each year,
a very large proportion of whom (approximately 90%) are children
less than five years old. About 2.5% of those affected with dengue
die of the disease.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
2. Introduction
Blood borne disease is the disease that can be spread through
contamination of blood.
Dengue is a viral infection that spread by mosquito.
It is the most common infection with an estimated 50-100
million of cases annually.
Infectious agent is Flaviviparus virus, with four serotypes of
virus, DEN-1 to DEN-4.
Dengue virus is an endemic in more than 100 countries in the
tropics and subtropics area.
3. Transmission
Transmitted through vector
Aedes aegypti, Aedes albopictus, A.polynesiensis,
A.scutellaris
Human is the reservoir host
Travel to dengue-endemic area
Blood transfusion
Mother-to-baby
5. Mechanism of infection
Virus is spread by biting of mosquito from infected
person to another person only during the day.
The virus passes to the lymph nodes and replicates
and finally spread to the circulation and tissues.
Incubation period is 3 to 15 days (usually 7-10 days)
6. Phases of infection
Febrile phase: Viremia-driven high fevers lasts for 2 to 7
days
Critical/plasma leak phase: Sudden onset of varying
degrees of plasma leak into the pleural and abdominal
cavities lasts for 1 to 2 days
Recovery or reabsorption phase: Reabsorption of
accumulated fluids including leaked plasma and
intravascular fluids, lasts for 2 to 4 days
7.
8. Lab test
Antigen NS1 test
ELISA- IgG, IgM antibodies
Blood cultures- isolate the virus
Full blood count
Liver function test
PCR- Nucleic acid detection
9. Lab findings
Presence of NS1 viral protein, antibodies against
dengue in the blood
Leukopenia, lymphocytosis, thrombocytopenia
Elevated transaminases (ALT and AST)
Plasma leakage results in hemoconcentration and
hypoalbuminaemia
Acute hepatitis
10.
11. Management
There is no specific drugs for dengue.
Treatment focus on maintaining proper fluid balance.
Paracetamol is prescribed.
Blood transfusion under severe conditions.
Monitoring vital signs and blood volume.
Invasive medical procedures and NSAIDs are avoided.
12. Prevention
No approved vaccines
Control of vector
Tip out water from things like pot plant bases, plastic
containers, tin cans or buckets
Store anything that can hold water undercover or in a dry place
Throw out any rubbish lying around the yard
Repellent
13. Conclusion
Dengue is a viral infection that transmitted by the bite of
an infected Aedes species.
Dengue fever is characterized by high
fever, rashes, muscle and joint pain.
It can lead to death when it develops into severe cases
such as DHF and DSS.
Control of the vector by reducing the breeding sites, good
sewage management and use of insecticides.
