Background Dengue fever is a rapidly climbing arthropod conceived viral malady disturbing to turn into a global open wellbeing issue. Give or take 500,000 individuals experience the ill effects of dengue fever and dengue stun syndrome with 20,000 passing are every year. Goal of this study was to investigate the danger components connected with the improvement of dengue fever. Systems: This cross- sectional enlightening study was led on patients conceded in different healing centers of Lahore with
Dengue fever is a mosquito-borne viral infection that has a widespread incidence. There are four closely related virus strains that cause dengue that are known as DENV 1, DENV 2, DENV 3, and DENV 4. The virus is transmitted to humans indirectly by mosquitos, of which Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus are the primary vectors. The Aedes aegypti mosquito is also recognized as the species that spreads other viral diseases such as chikungunya, yellow fever, and the Zika virus. Dengue has a pronounced
1. 1. Dengue Dengue is the most common arboviral (arthropod-transmitted) disease and it also position as the most important mosquito-borne viral disease in the world. Approximately 2.5 billion people living in tropical and sub-tropical regions are at a great risk of dengue infection, which is almost equal to about two-fifths of the human population (Gubler & Clark, 1995; WHO, 2009). There is an estimated 50-100 million infections occurring globally in each year, with 500,000 cases requiring hospitalization
Over the past years Dengue fever has become the major arboviral disease transmitted worldwide, with about 2.5 billion people at risk of having this kind of fever. This is a deadly illness, which can lead to more life threatening situations, such as the dengue haemorrhagic shock. According to the NHS website there hasn’t been any cure or antiviral treatment or vaccine for the illness. However during the past recent years entomologists have been working on how to minimise the outgrowing problem, to
Introduction Dengue fever, also known as the “breakbone fever”, is a vector-borne viral disease endemic in tropic and subtropic regions, with around 100 million symptomatic new cases each year worldwide15. It is caused by any one of the four closely-related serotypes or viruses that is spread by multiple species of mosquitoes, in particular the Aedes aegypti 6,13. Signs and Symptoms The symptoms include high fever, severe headache, joint and muscle pain and a characteristic rash that resembles measles
Introduction What is dengue fever? Dengue fever is caused from a transfer of misquotes bite to human that contains the Aedes aegypti virus. The disease affects people that live in countries such as South Asia Pacific, Caribbean and South America. There has been a major outbreak in India due to large demand to live urban area. One major problem these countries have is their drainage system when rain falls. When it rains, it leave a large body of water that become unclean which is a target site
The epidemiology of both dengue and West Nile Virus (WNV) are based on mosquito patterns and their interaction with human. Dengue has plagued nearly every continent and continues to be a major public health problem. WNV, on the other hand, is a relatively new human public health problem, especially in the US. It might be possible to model control efforts found effective against the globally distributed dengue for control of West Nile Virus right here in the US. I was in high school when WNV hit my
1. 8. Dengue Virus The causative agent of the dengue disease is the dengue virus (DENV), a group of four flaviviruses that are closely related but antigenically distinct. They are hypothesised to have evolved independently from ancestral sylvatic viruses between 100-1,500 years ago (Wang et al., 2000). The four groups are known as serotypes and denoted as dengue virus type 1 (DENV-1), dengue virus type 2 (DENV-2), dengue virus type 3 (DENV-3) and dengue virus type 4 (DENV-4). 1. 8. 1. Taxonomy There
Section 1 Malaria General Information Malaria is a common infectious disease found mainly in the tropics but in rare circumstances can be found in temperate areas. Depending on the circumstances malaria can be either life threatening cause serious illness. It is caused by parasites of the Plasmodium species(in text reference). These parasites are carried by mosquitoes which become infected after biting someone who has malaria. Malaria is then passed on to others when the infected mosquito bites another
Introduction Dengue fever is a tropical disease produced by a virus transmitted by a mosquito Aedes aegipti. This disease affects mainly tropical countries in Latin America, Africa and Asia and According to World Health Organization (WHO), dengue is a fast emerging pandemic-prone viral disease, and is one of four WHO future vaccine priorities. (WHO, 2013) Researchers in the United State, Brazil and Europe has been developing 4 vaccine candidates that are under clinical trials. These evaluations have
Mosquitoes are unique animals known to mankind…In fact, did you know they are annoying, small and they carry all sorts of types of diseases?Scientist, Students, Kids, Teens, Adults issue that mosquitoes are deadly and annoying.Meanwhile, Mosquitoes are useful for both the People in need and the environment, Mosquitoes are also mysteries creatures. People Clam Mosquitoes are Not intelligent as humans or creatures, annoying and nasty but in reality, Mosquitoes are useful, amazing and are helpful to
Stopping The West Nile Virus In 2002 the West Nile Virus was found in 38 states and killed 188 people before the year was over. The West Nile Virus has existed in Africa for thousands of years infecting wildlife and people, but it has been affecting people more than ever these past few decades. The West Nile virus is transmitted into humans and wildlife through mosquito bites. In the past vaccines and pesticides have been used to control these types of issues, but this virus isn’t as simple. In order
B5, B6, B7 and B9 . Minerals such as potassium, sodium, calcium, phosphorous, iron, copper, sulphur and chlorides are present in coconut water. Potassium rich tender coconut water. Dengue infection is one of the most common mosquito-borne infections caused by Flaviridae. An electrolyte disturbance takes place in dengue infection. Sodium is an essential nutrient in humans; regulate blood
When one hears the phrase “global warming,” what often comes to mind is melting ice caps and warmer winters but most people are horribly unaware of the effects that global warming will have on human health. Food shortages, contaminated water, extreme weather, and deadly heat threaten the world because of the warming temperatures of our earth. The effects of these can be seen today and their influence will be magnified in the not-so-distant future. But the most dangerous threat we face from global
Insects also are famous for transmitting very dangerous viruses. Dengue is an example of a disease that, sometimes, can be deadly and is transmitted by a specific type of mosquito (the Aedes mosquito) (Jorge R. Rey, 2015). There are two types of Dengue. There is the mild Dengue, which is not deadly, and the hemorrhagic Dengue, which can be deadly if not treated promptly and appropriately. Some of the symptoms of the hemorrhagic Dengue are fever, sore throat, headaches, vomiting, and abdominal pain
The leaves and the rest of the plant may work wonders for balancing out blood sugar making great for diabetics. According to research, camote tops can counter attack the downfall of platelet count of anyone hit by dengue fever. The body’s immune system is thus revived, making dengue become helpless against the body’s natural defenses. With the help of camote tops, the body enables to heal itself. The sweet potato comes with different types or varieties. These are the purple fleshed sweet potato
There are 5 main pathways of environmental transmission of pathogens. Those are air-borne, food-borne, water-borne, vector-borne and blood-borne. Air-borne transmission refers to any disease that is caused by a pathogen and transmitted through the air. These pathogens can be spread by coughing, sneezing, stirring dust, liquid spraying, or generally any activity that generate aerosol particles or droplets. These pathogens can include viruses, bacteria, or fungi. Some common examples of pathogens
SEDSS, operated by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Department of Health of Puerto Rico (PRDH), is a platform for conducting population-based studies to better define the etiology and epidemiology of dengue-like acute febrile illnesses. For the purpose of this investigation, CHIKV cases will be define as a patient enrolled in SEDSS that had laboratory evidence of CHIKV infection (i.e., anti-CHIKV IgM, RT-PCR) and severity CHIKV cases are defined as those
Poor health is not only an effect of poverty, but one of its root causes. This is particularly true for Central America’s second-poorest country, Honduras, where 62.8 percent of the population lives in poverty. Without access to affordable health care, a lack of clean water and sanitation methods and a shortage of health centers, Honduras’ poor are most susceptible to becoming ill. But what are the top diseases in Honduras? Diabetes. Diabetes is the second-leading cause of death amongst Hondurans
causes fever, vomiting, sweats, and depletes the oxygen in the blood stream. A disease more common than Malaria is Dengue Fever. When one is bitten by a mosquito that has Dengue, Dengue causes excruciating muscle joint pain and fever. Dengue has five different strains, but a person can only get each strain once. The last disease being Japanese Encephalitis is very similar to Dengue in that it causes a fever, but in the long run can cause long term paralysis. The other disease that is very common
