Dengue virus is transmitted through the bites of infected Aedes mosquitoes. It can cause a range of illnesses from mild dengue fever to severe dengue hemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome. Symptoms range from fever, rash and joint pain to bleeding, low blood pressure and death. Diagnosis involves virus detection, antibody testing or assessment of clinical symptoms and exposure history. There is no vaccine for dengue prevention and treatment focuses on rest, fluids and medication for fever or pain.
Adenoviruses (members of the family Adenoviridae) are medium-sized (90–100 nm), nonenveloped (without an outer lipid bilayer) viruses with an icosahedral nucleocapsid containing a double-stranded DNA genome. Their name derives from their initial isolation from human adenoids in 1953.

Dengue is a febrile illness caused by a flavivirus transmitted by Aedes aegypti or Aedes albopictus mosquitoes while taking a blood meal. There are four dengue virus (DENV) types (DENV-1, DENV-2, DENV-3, and DENV-4), all of which are capable of inducing severe disease (dengue hemorrhagic fever [DHF]/dengue shock syndrome [DSS]). Dengue is endemic in more than 125 countries in tropical and subtropical regions and causes an estimated 390 million infections annually worldwide, of which 96 million are clinically apparent
In dengue-endemic regions, suspected, probable, and confirmed cases of dengue infection should be reported to the relevant authorities as soon as possible, so that appropriate measures can be instituted to prevent dengue transmission
A mosquito-borne viral disease occurring in tropical and subtropical areas.
Those who become infected with the virus a second time are at a significantly greater risk of developing severe disease.
Symptoms include high fever, headache, rash and muscle and joint pain. In severe cases there is serious bleeding and shock, which can be life threatening.
Treatment includes fluids and pain relievers. Severe cases require hospital care.
As an intern house officer, I prepared this presentation after I came across a rare case of dengue fever complicated by hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH). Dengue fever itself is a rare disease entity in the UAE, as a developed country; and the presence of such a complication merely added to the complexity of the diagnosis. Therefore, I am delighted to share this lively PowerPoint Presentation about dengue, which was initially supplemented with an interesting case presentation but was removed for confidentiality purposes when sharing the document. I hope you enjoy it!

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

2. Dengue virus
Dengue virus belong to Flaviviridae
Positive-strand, single-stranded, non
segmented RNA genome
Enveloped, icosahedral nucleocapsid
Four serotype of Dengue virus Denv 1,2,3,4
Cause Dengue fever, Dengue
hemorrhagic fever DHF and Dengue
shock syndrome DSS
3. Dengue virus
Transmission
Transmission occurs through the bite of an
infected Aedes mosquito, primarily Aedes
aegypti and Ae. Albopictus
In addition, perinatal DENV transmission
occurs, and the highest risk appears to be
among infants whose mothers are acutely
ill around the time of delivery
4. Dengue virus
Infection/Disease
Dengue viral infections are one of the most
important mosquito borne diseases in the world
They may be asymptomatic or may give rise to
undifferentiated fever, dengue fever, dengue
haemorrhagic fever (DHF), or dengue shock
syndrome
5. Dengue virus
Clinical manifestations of dengue Infections
Undifferentiated fever
This usually follows a primary infection but may also
occur during a secondary infection
Clinically it is indistinguishable from other viral
infections
6. Dengue virus
Dengue fever
Dengue fever may occur either during primary or secondary infections
The onset is sudden with high fever, severe headache (especially in the
retro-orbital area), arthralgia, myalgia, anorexia, abdominal discomfort,
and sometimes a macular papular rash
The fever may be biphasic and tends to last for 2–7 days
Flushing, a characteristic feature is commonly observed on the face,
neck, and chest
Coryza may also be a prominent symptom especially in infants
Younger children tend to present with coryza, diarrhoea, rash and
seizure, and less commonly with vomiting, headache, and abdominal
pain
Recovery from dengue fever is usually uneventful, but may be
prolonged especially in adults
7. Dengue virus
Dengue haemorrhagic fever
DHF usually follows secondary dengue infections, but may sometimes
follow primary infections, especially in infants
DHF is characterised by high fever, haemorrhagic phenomena, and
features of circulatory failure
The WHO case definition of DHF is a patient with the following four
criteria:
1. Acute sudden onset of high fever for 2–7 days.
2. Haemorrhagic manifestations with at least a positive tourniquet test
3. Platelet count ,100 *109/l.
4. Haemoconcentration (rising packed cell volume >20%) or other
evidence of plasma leakage—for example, ascites, pleural effusions,
low level of serum protein/albumin
For purposes of description DHF is divided into three phases—namely:
febrile, leakage, and convalescent phases
8. Dengue virus
The febrile phase begins with sudden onset fever accompanied
by generalised constitutional symptoms and facial flush
The fever is high grade, intermittent, and associated with rigors
Epigastric discomfort, myalgia, vomiting, and abdominal pain are
common and patients are usually quite miserable
Tender hepatomegaly is observed in almost all patients and
splenomegaly may be seen in some
A macular papular rash similar to that seen in dengue fever is also
seen in many patients
The fever lasts for 2–7 days and is followed by a fall in
temperature to normal or subnormal levels
At this point, the patient may recover or progress to the phase of
plasma leakage. Those who remain ill despite their temperature
subsiding are more likely to progress to DHF
Clinical deterioration usually occurs during defervescence
9. Dengue virus
Tachycardia and hypotension characterise the onset of plasma leakage.
When plasma leakage is severe patients may develop other signs of
circulatory disturbance such as prolonged capillary refill time, narrow pulse
pressures, and shock
Inadequate treatment of such patients often leads to profound shock.
During the phase of plasma leakage (first 24–48 hours after onset of DHF),
pleural effusions and ascites are common
In DHF, bleeding may occur from any site and does not correlate with the
platelet counts
Haemorrhagic manifestations usually occur once the fever has settled
Minor degrees of bleeding may manifest as gum bleeding and petechiae
The commonest site of haemorrhage is the gastrointestinal tract, which
manifests as haematemesis or melaena, followed by epistaxis
Vaginal bleeding is commonly reported in females.
10. Dengue virus
Convalescence in DHF is usually short and
uneventful
The return of appetite is a good indicator of
recovery from shock
Bradycardia is also seen in this period
If present, a confluent petechial rash with
erythema and islands of pallor (usually known as a
recovery rash) is characteristic of dengue
infections
During the convalescent stage, many patients
also complain of severe itching especially on the
palms and soles
11. Dengue virus
Dengue shock syndrome
Dengue shock syndrome is associated with very high mortality
Severe plasma leakage leading to dengue shock syndrome is
associated with cold blotchy skin, circumoral cyanosis, and
circulatory disturbances
Acute abdominal pain and persisting vomiting are early
warning signs of impeding shock
Sudden hypotension may indicate the onset of profound shock
Prolonged shock is often accompanied by metabolic acidosis,
which may precipitate disseminated intravascular coagulation
or enhance ongoing disseminated intravascular coagulation,
which in turn could lead to massive haemorrhage
12. Dengue virus
Diagnosis
Clinicians should consider dengue in a patient who was in an
endemic area within 2 weeks before symptom onset
Laboratory confirmation can be made from a single acute-
phase serum specimen obtained early (≤5 days after fever
onset) in the illness by detecting DENV genomic sequences
with RT-PCR or DENV nonstructural protein 1 (NS1) antigen by
immunoassay
Later in the illness (≥4 days after fever onset), IgM anti-DENV
can be detected with ELISA
IgG anti-DENV by ELISA in a single serum sample is not useful
for diagnostic testing, because it remains elevated for life after
any DENV infection and can be falsely positive in people with
antibodies to other flaviviruses
13. Dengue virus
Other laboratory findings
Laboratory findings commonly include leucopenia,
thrombocytopenia, hyponatremia, elevated
aspartate aminotransferase and alanine
aminotransferase, and a normal erythrocyte
sedimentation rate
