DENGUE(Microbiology)
![Page 11: Dengue Chikukunya & Malaria in the viewpoint of Medicine Paediatric & Obstetrics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58857f571a28abbb7e8b704f/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
• Caused by dengue virus (mosquito-borne flavivirus ) - transmitted by
mosquitoes (Aedes aegypti & Aedes albopictus).
• Four distinct serotypes DENV-1,2,3 and 4.
• Each episode of infection induces life-long protective immunity to the
homologous serotype but confers only partial and transient protection against
other serotypes.
• Secondary infection - major risk factor for severe dengue due to antibody-
dependent enhancement.
• Other important contributing factors are viral virulence, host genetic
background, T-cell activation, viral load and auto-antibodies.
• Incubation period: 4-7 days (range 3-14).
INTRODUCTION
![Page 12: Dengue Chikukunya & Malaria in the viewpoint of Medicine Paediatric & Obstetrics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58857f571a28abbb7e8b704f/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
DENGUE TRANSMISSION• Mosquitoes acquire the virus when they feed on a carrier of
the virus.• Persons with dengue viruses in their blood can transmit the
viruses to the mosquito 1 day before the onset of the febrile period.
• The patient can remain infectious for the next 6-7 days. • The mosquito can transmit dengue virus if it immediately
bites another host. • In addition, transmission occurs after 8-12 days of viral
replication in the mosquito's salivary glands (extrinsic incubation period). The mosquito remains infected for the remainder of its life.
![Page 13: Dengue Chikukunya & Malaria in the viewpoint of Medicine Paediatric & Obstetrics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58857f571a28abbb7e8b704f/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
DENGUE TRANSMISSION• Once inoculated into a human host, dengue has an incubation
period of 3-14 days with average 4-7 days(intrinsic incubation period) for viral replication.
• Infection of target cells, primarily those of the reticuloendothelial system, such as hepatocytes and endothelial cells result in the production of immune mediators
![Page 14: Dengue Chikukunya & Malaria in the viewpoint of Medicine Paediatric & Obstetrics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58857f571a28abbb7e8b704f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

PATHOGENESISSecondary infection
– When an individual is infected with heterotypic dengue virus/another serotype of DENV (i.e. secondary infection), they will produces low levels of non-neutralizing antibodies. These antibodies, directed against 1 of 2 surface proteins.
– When bound by macrophage and monocyte Fc receptors, have been proposed to fail to neutralize virus and instead form an antigen-antibody complex.
– This results in increased viral entry into macrophages bearing IgG receptors, allowing unchecked viral replication with increased cytokine production and complement activation, a phenomenon called antibody-dependent enhancement.
– The affected macrophages release vasoactive mediators that increase vascular permeability, leading to vascular leakage, hypovolaemia, and shock
![Page 16: Dengue Chikukunya & Malaria in the viewpoint of Medicine Paediatric & Obstetrics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58857f571a28abbb7e8b704f/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
PATHOGENESIS
Patient recovers from classic dengue caused by one of four serotypes
Antibody against that particular serotype is produced (prevents the virus from binding to the macrophages cells)
Second dengue infection by other serotypes
Large amounts of cross reacting antibody to the first types are produced, in contrast to the current / new antibody for the
second dengue infection
more antibodies produced will lead to large entry of DENV into
monocytes & macrophages
Activate complement
Increased vascular permeability large amounts of
cytokines
large amounts of cytokines

Clinical course of dengueThe incubation period for dengue infection is 4-7 days.
![Page 20: Dengue Chikukunya & Malaria in the viewpoint of Medicine Paediatric & Obstetrics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58857f571a28abbb7e8b704f/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Febrile phase (2-7 days) Sudden onset of high grade fever accompanied by facial flushing, skin erythema, generalised body ache, myalgia, arthralgia and headache. Sometimes, nausea and vomiting.
FBC - progressive decrease in total white cell count
Critical phase (3-5days) Duration : 24-48 hours
Rapid drop in temperature may coincide with an increase in capillary permeability in some patients.
Evidence of plasma leakage includes raised HCT (early marker), haemodynamic instability, fluid accumulation in extravascular space (rather late marker) or hypoproteinemia.
Recovery Phase Plasma leakage stops and followed by reabsorption of extravascular fluid.
HCT level stabilises or drops further due to haemodilution following reabsorption of extravascular fluid. The recovery of platelet count is typically preceded by recovery of white cell count.
![Page 21: Dengue Chikukunya & Malaria in the viewpoint of Medicine Paediatric & Obstetrics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58857f571a28abbb7e8b704f/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Pathophysiology of plasma leakage in DHF and DSS
The primary pathophysiological abnormality seen in DHF and DSS is an acute increase in
vascular permeability that leads to leakage of plasma into the extravascular compartment,
resulting in haemoconcentration and hypovolaemia or shock. Hypovolaemia leads to reflex
tachycardia and generalised vasoconstriction due to increased sympathetic output. Clinical
manifestations of vasoconstriction in various systems are as follows:
• a. Skin - coolness, pallor and delayed capillary refill time
• b. CVS - raised diastolic blood pressure and narrowing of pulse pressure
• c. Renal system - reducing urine output
• d. Gastrointestinal system - vomiting and abdominal pain
• e. CNS– lethargy, restlessness, apprehension, reduced level of consciousness
• f. Respiratory system – tachypnoea (respiratory rate >20/min)

Test ExplanationWhite cell count
In the early febrile phase, WCC is usually normal but will decrease rapidly as the disease progresses. This trend of leukopenia should raise the suspicion of possible dengue infection.
Hematocrit A rising HCT is a marker of plasma leakage in dengue infection and helps to differentiate between DF and DHF but it can be masked in patients with concurrent significant bleeding and in those who receive early fluid replacement. Setting the patient’s baseline HCT in the early febrile phase of disease will be very useful in the recognition of a rising HCT level.
A. Disease Monitoring Test
![Page 27: Dengue Chikukunya & Malaria in the viewpoint of Medicine Paediatric & Obstetrics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58857f571a28abbb7e8b704f/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Test Explanation
Platelet Thrombocytopaenia is commonly seen in dengue infection. In the early febrile phase, platelet count is usually within normal range but it will decrease rapidly as the disease progresses to the late febrile phase or at defervescence and it may continue to remain low for the first few days of recovery.
Liver Function Test
Elevated liver enzymes is common and is characterised by greater elevation of the AST as compared to the ALT. The frequency and degree of elevation of the liver enzymes are higher with DHF compared to DF
![Page 28: Dengue Chikukunya & Malaria in the viewpoint of Medicine Paediatric & Obstetrics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58857f571a28abbb7e8b704f/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
B. Diagnostic Tests
Test Explanation
Rapid Combo Test (RCT)
Rapid combo tests are assays that can detect the presence of virus as well as antibodies. Can be read within 15-20 minutes. Tests are useful during the early phase of onset when there is viraemia as well as at a later stage when antibodies against dengue begin to rise.
Virus Isolation The most definitive test for dengue infection. It can only be performed in the lab equipped with tissue culture and other virus isolation facilities. It is useful only at the early phase of the illness. Generally, blood should be collected before day 5 of illness; i.e. before the formation of neutralizing antibodies. During the febrile illness, dengue virus can be isolated from serum, plasma and leucocytes. It can also be isolated from post mortem specimens. The monoclonal antibody immunofluorescence test is the method of choice for identification of dengue virus. It may take up to two weeks to complete the test and it is expensive.
Dengue Antigen and Serology Tests by ELISA
![Page 29: Dengue Chikukunya & Malaria in the viewpoint of Medicine Paediatric & Obstetrics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58857f571a28abbb7e8b704f/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
To diagnose, we detect for NS1Ag(1-2 days of fever) IgM IgG (showing post infection)
![Page 30: Dengue Chikukunya & Malaria in the viewpoint of Medicine Paediatric & Obstetrics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58857f571a28abbb7e8b704f/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Dengue IgM test
• This antibody titre is significantly higher in primary infections, compared to
secondary infections. Once the IgM is detectable, it rises quickly and peaks at
about 2 weeks after the onset of symptoms, and it undetectable levels by 60
days. Some patient may persist for more than 90 days.
Indirect IgG test
• In primary and secondary dengue infection, dengue IgG was detected in
100% of patients after day 7 of onset of fever. Therefore dengue IgG is
recommended if dengue IgM is still negative after day 7 with the negative IgG
in the initial test sample.
![Page 31: Dengue Chikukunya & Malaria in the viewpoint of Medicine Paediatric & Obstetrics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58857f571a28abbb7e8b704f/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Non-structural protein 1 (NS1 antigen)
• NS1 antigen is a highly conserved glycoprotein that seems to be
essential for virus viability. Secretion of the NS1 protein is a
hallmark of flavivirus infecting mammalian cells and can be found
in dengue infection as well as in yellow fever and West Nile virus
infection. This antigen is present in high concentrations in the sera
of dengue infected patients during the early phase of the disease.
However, the sensitivity of NS1 antigen detection drops from day
4-5 of illness onwards and usually becomes undetectable in the
convalescence phase.

Management of dengue + warning signs
• Cases of dengue with warning signs will probably recover with early intravenous rehydration. Some cases will deteriorate to severe dengue.
![Page 35: Dengue Chikukunya & Malaria in the viewpoint of Medicine Paediatric & Obstetrics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58857f571a28abbb7e8b704f/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Management of bleeding• Mild bleeding such as from the gums, per vagina,
epistaxis or petechiae, usually cease spontaneously and do not require blood transfusion.
• Transfusion of blood and blood components in dengue is indicated when there is evidence of significant bleeding.
![Page 36: Dengue Chikukunya & Malaria in the viewpoint of Medicine Paediatric & Obstetrics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58857f571a28abbb7e8b704f/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)

CHIKUNGUNYA• Caused by an RNA virus that belong to Togaviridae family. • Transmitted by Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus• Chikungunya was first identified in Tanzania in the early 1952 and has
caused periodic outbreaks in Asia and Africa since the 1960s.• Outbreaks are often separated by period of 10 years.• Outbreaks usually occur in post monsoon period when vector
densities is very high.

• Between Jan 2006 and Dec 2009, a study was done based on database of a cluster of patients from National Public Health Laboratory with a clinical diagnosis of chikungunya.
• Of the 13,759 patients, only 6,314 patients were laboratory confirmed to have Chikungunya.
• There were 2 small outbreaks within the state of Perak in 2006 and one outbreak in 2008 & 2009 in Johor.

INTRODUCTION• Chikungunya is a disease that is caused by the chikungunya virus
(CHIKV)• Chikungunya is transmitted to human by female mosquito
(Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus).• They bite mostly during the daytime.• Chikungunya is classified as an alphavirus belonging to the
Togaviridae family. The virus is single-stranded RNA surrounded by a lipid envelope.
• The viral particles are small (60-70 nanometers in diameter) and spherical.
• Incubation period is 4 to 8 days but can range from 2 to 12 days.-Medical microbiology 4th edition
![Page 46: Dengue Chikukunya & Malaria in the viewpoint of Medicine Paediatric & Obstetrics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58857f571a28abbb7e8b704f/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Pathogenesis• After inoculation through the bite of an infected
mosquito in the skin, there is transient viremia, and arthropods vectors acquire the virus by sucking blood during this period.
• Then viral replication occurs in liver, spleen, muscle, and lymph nodes.
• Virus then enters the bloodstream and is disseminated.• Interferon (IFN) is early activated, but the viruses
developed several mechanisms to inhibit this antiviral response.

MALARIA(Public Health)
![Page 53: Dengue Chikukunya & Malaria in the viewpoint of Medicine Paediatric & Obstetrics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58857f571a28abbb7e8b704f/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
MALARIA• Caused by Plasmodium parasite ( P. falciparum, P. vivax, P. malariae
and P. ovale )• Transmitted by
• Anopheles mosquitoes
• According to WHO, in December 2015, there were 214 million cases of malaria and 438 000 deaths.
• Between 2000 and 2015, malaria• Incidence fell by 37% globally • Mortality rates decreased by 60%
![Page 54: Dengue Chikukunya & Malaria in the viewpoint of Medicine Paediatric & Obstetrics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58857f571a28abbb7e8b704f/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
• In Malaysia, Malaria cases have been on the decline from 12,705 cases in 2000 to 4,725 cases in 2012.
• For the past decade (2000-2012) :-- Peninsular Malaysia (3,918 cases -> 1,097 cases)- Sarawak ( 3,011 cases -> 1,571 cases)- Sabah ( 5,776 cases -> 2,052 cases)
• Number of malaria deaths is also reduced from 35 in 2000 and to 16 deaths in 2012.

Knowing The Enemy
-Until today there are 5 types of Malarial parasites
• Plasmodium Vivax• Plasmodium Ovale• Plasmodium Malariae• Plasmodium Falciparum• Plasmodium Knowlesi
Harbored by Anopheles mosquito
![Page 60: Dengue Chikukunya & Malaria in the viewpoint of Medicine Paediatric & Obstetrics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58857f571a28abbb7e8b704f/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
Life Cycle
SCHIZOGONY(In Human)
SPOROGONY(In Mosquito)
![Page 61: Dengue Chikukunya & Malaria in the viewpoint of Medicine Paediatric & Obstetrics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58857f571a28abbb7e8b704f/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
SCHIZOGONY• Begins with an bite of an infected female Anopheles mosquito
• As blood is drawn out saliva & spindle shaped sporozoites is injected
• Sporozoites make their way to the liver and will reside in the parenchymal cell
• Begin asexual development (schizogony)
• Produces Merozoites which burdens the parenchyma
• Rupture of parenchymal cell
• Merozoites enters the circulation
• For Vivax & Ovale, some sporozoites will go into hypnozoites which will lay dormant
EXOERYTHROCYTIC STATE5-16 (Depends)
-Headache
-Myalgia
-GIT Disturbances
![Page 62: Dengue Chikukunya & Malaria in the viewpoint of Medicine Paediatric & Obstetrics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58857f571a28abbb7e8b704f/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
• Circulating Merozoite invade RBC & reticulocytes evelops to young throphozoites
• They will feed on the hemoglobin for growth
• The byproduct will form malarial pigment
• Thropozoites begins to enlarge until it’s nucleus divides to form schizont
• Mature schizont undergoes schizogony forming merozoites (Quantity depends on species)
• RBS unable to contain these parasites & lyse
• Merozoites & all the immunogenic by-product is released to the bloodstream
• This causes MALARIAL PAROXYSYM
• After several generations, some of the merozoites undergo sexual differentiation (Gametogenesis)
• The merozoite develop to Macro (F) & Microgametocytes (M)
• Ingested by Anopheles
ERYTHROCYTIC STATE(Shaking Chills & Fever)
![Page 63: Dengue Chikukunya & Malaria in the viewpoint of Medicine Paediatric & Obstetrics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58857f571a28abbb7e8b704f/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
SPOROGONY• The gametocytes matures in the
mosquito
• The union of Macro & Microgametocytes produces a zygote which is known as ookinate
• This stage penetrates to the gut wall and grows to oocyst
• Oocyst gives rise to sporozoites which migrates to salivary gland to repeat the cycle

Clinical Manifestations• The typical Prepatent and Incubation periods following sporozoites inoculation vary slightly
according to the species.
• Prepatent period : time between sporozoite inoculation and the appearance of parasites in the blood

Malarial Paroxysm• Consists of three stages ( 4-8 hours)1. Cold stage - Last 15-60 minutes- Sudden onset of chils, despite elevated
temperature
2. Hot stage- Last 2-6 hours.- Feels an intense heat accompanied by
severe headache, fatigue, dizziness, anaeroxia, myalgia, and nause
3. Sweating stage- Last 2-4 hours- Profuse sweating will ensue and fever will
start to decline.- Patient exhausted and weak, usually fall
asleep.
* Upon awakening, the patient usually feels well, other than being tired, and does not exhibit symptoms until onset of next paroxysm.

Diagnosis
• Blood smears
• Quantitative Buffy Coat( QBC) Test
• Rapid Diagnostic Test ( RDT)
![Page 71: Dengue Chikukunya & Malaria in the viewpoint of Medicine Paediatric & Obstetrics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58857f571a28abbb7e8b704f/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
Blood smearsThick smear- Good screening test- Positive or negative- Difficult to diagnose species
Thin smears- Good species differentiation- Requires more time to interpret- Low density infections can be
missed
![Page 72: Dengue Chikukunya & Malaria in the viewpoint of Medicine Paediatric & Obstetrics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58857f571a28abbb7e8b704f/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
Quantitative Buffy Coat• The buffy coat is the fraction of an anticoagulated
blood sample that contains most of the white blood cells and platelets following density gradient centrifugation of the blood.
• The blood is taken in a QBC capillary tube which is coated with (a fluorescent dye) and centrifuged.
• The fluorescing parasites can then be observed under ultraviolet light at the interface between red blood cells and buffy coat.

Rapid Diagnostic Test• It detects evidence of malaria parasites (antigens) in human blood. • RDT permit a reliable detection of malaria infections even in remote
areas with limited access to good quality microscopy services.• The tests are simple and the procedure can be performed on the spot
in field conditions. • These tests use finger-stick or venous blood, the completed test takes
a total of 15–20 minutes, and a laboratory is not needed.
