Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleProcalcitonin and Clinical Factors Associated with Severe Dengue Infection in Hospitalized Adults in MalaysiaHuzairi Sani, Nada Syazana, Zahir Izuan et al.Dengue Fever (DF) is the commonest mosquito-borne viral infection that results in hospitalisation amongst patients in Malaysia. The cornerstone of managing dengue virus infection is the prediction hence prevention of severe DF from developing. Warning signs proposed by WHO as clinical predictors of severe DF are insensitive. Procalcitonin (PCT) has been shown to increase in bacterial infections and is useful … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 3 Dec 2019 · 7,360 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe SEIR Dynamical Transmission Model of Dengue Disease with and Without the Vertical Transmission of the VirusPratchaya Chanprasopchai, I. Ming Tang, Puntani PongsumpunThe transmission of dengue disease when there is a possibility of Vertical Transmission (VT) is studied using mathematical modeling. In the normal case, the mosquito is infected by the dengue virus when it bites an infectious human being. Evidence is gathering that the mosquitoes can also be infected through sexual contact with infected male mosquito. To see the possible consequence … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 12 · 2 Jan 2018 · 9,057 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleLyapunov Function for a Dengue Transmission Model where two Species of Mosquitoes are Present: Global StabilityI Ming Tang, Rattiya Sungchasit, Puntani PongsumpunIn this study, we are interested in the newly observed endemic due to the ZIKA virus. In the absence of a full knowledge of the dynamics of the infection due to this virus, we consider a model of the closely related dengue virus when there are two species of mosquitoes, A. aegypti and A. albopictus mosquitoes who are both capable … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 10 · 25 Oct 2017 · 8,274 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleQuadratic Discriminant Analysis of Dengue Viruses Disease Incidence in PalembangYulia Resti, Noriszura Ismail, Marieska VerawatyPalembang is classified as a city that has tropical climate with abundant rainfall, even in the driest month. These characteristics indicate that the city has a high potential for the occurrence of dengue virus disease. The areas of incidence of dengue virus disease in Palembang can be classified into five areas; South, Center, North, West and East. The aim of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 5 · 30 May 2017 · 7,478 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSIR Transmission Model of Dengue Virus Taking Into Account Two Species of Mosquitoes and an Age Structure in the Human PopulationR. Sungchasit, P. Pongsumpun, I. M. TangDengue is a vector-borne disease. It is transmitted to humans by the bites of the Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquitoes. The human population is separated into two classes, a child class and an adult class, each class being described by a SIR model. The transmission rates of the two mosquito species are different and depend on what class the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 6 · 28 Jul 2015 · 6,511 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDETECTABLE ANTI-DENGUE VIRUS IGM ANTIBODIES AMONG HEALTHY INDIVIDUALS IN OGBOMOSO, OYO STATE, NIGERIAE. K. Oladipo, C. Amanetu, T. A. Gbadero, J. K. OlokeDengue fever is a zoonosis maintained in nature by mosquitoes transmitting virus between non-human primate species, most of which develop clinically in apparent infection. It has been found to be endemic in Africa and beyond. A survey for Dengue virus IgM antibody was carried out in Ogbomoso (urban and rural areas) using Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (WKEA Med Supplies Corp, … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 3 May 2014 · 7,827 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleGENERALIZED LINEAR MIXED MODELS WITH SPATIAL RANDOM EFFECTS FOR SPATIO-TEMPORAL DATA: AN APPLICATION TO DENGUE FEVER MAPPINGKrisada Lekdee, Lily IngsrisawangThe Generalized Linear Mixed Models (GLMMs) with spatial random effects for spatio-temporal data are proposed. A hierarchical Bayesian method is used for parameter estimation. The random effects are assumed to be normally distributed and the spatial random effects are assumed to be proper Conditional Autoregressive (CAR) models. The proposed models are applied to Dengue fever data in Northern Thailand, including … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 13 May 2013 · 8,065 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleOn the Influence of Climate and Socio-Economic Condition to the Dengue Incidences: A Semiparametric Panel Regression ApproachNurma Yussanti, Heri Kuswanto, Mutiah SalamahDengue is one of the most dangerous diseases in the worlds. In particularly in East Java province Indonesia, dengue has been identified as one of the major causes of death. Hence, it is important to investigate the factors that induce the number of dengue incidences in this region. This study examines climate and socio-economic conditions, which are assumed to influence … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 14 Feb 2013 · 7,206 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSerological Evidence of Recent Dengue Virus Infection Among Febrile Children in a Semi Arid ZoneFaneye Adedayo, Idika Nioma, Motayo Babatunde Olanrewaju et al.Presence of Dengue virus has been established in Nigeria; owing to the severity of this disease and its attendant complications we investigated the presence of this virus serologically in febrile Nigerian children under 5 years of age from Ilorin. Blood samples were tested from 130 children under the age of 5 years for the presence of IgM antibodies against all … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 1 Feb 2013 · 7,894 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDynamical Model for Determining Human Susceptibility to Dengue FeverSurapol Naowarat, Thanon Korkiatsakul, I. Ming TangProblem statement: Mathematical models are a useful tool for understanding and describing the transmission of diseases such as dengue fever, one of the most prevalently emerging diseases common to tropical and subtropical areas throughout South East Asia. By taking into account human susceptibility to disease, the dynamics of a dengue disease model is proposed. Approach: Using standard methods for analyzing … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 11 · 28 Sep 2011 · 7,735 accessesView PDFCite
