The Incidence, Characteristics, and Presentation of Dengue Virus Infections during Infancy

Abstract: Abstract. Infants are a vulnerable and unique population at risk for dengue in endemic areas. This report describes the incidence and presenting clinical features of infant dengue virus (DENV) infections from a prospective community-based study performed between January 2007 and May 2009 in the Philippines. DENV3 was the predominant infecting serotype over a wide spectrum of disease severity, ranging from inapparent infection to dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF). In 2007, the incidence of inapparent DENV infectio… Show more

“…13,14 In infants, maternal dengue antibodies that have declined below neutralizing levels could enhance primary infection, explaining a peak of severe dengue disease between 6 and 8 months of age. 11,15 It is generally agreed that a tetravalent dengue vaccine will be required to minimize the risk of ADE on DENV infection after vaccination. 4,16 Multiple studies on maternal dengue antibodies have been conducted previously to assess (1) the association between maternal antibodies and severe dengue in infants 13,17,18 and (2) the proportion of infants with detectable dengue antibody levels at different ages.…”

“…Los datos mostraron Esta diferencia podría deberse a que mediante la vigilancia activa de síndromes febriles es posible captar pacientes con dengue no diagnosticados en los servicios de salud. Es frecuente que exista subdiagnóstico del dengue debido, en parte, a la elevada frecuencia de infecciones indiferenciadas o subclínicas (20)(21)(22), o porque los pacientes consultan en las etapas iniciales de la enfermedad, cuando los síntomas coinciden con los de otras infecciones y el diagnóstico es difícil (23). La escasa disponibilidad de las pruebas de diagnóstico no permite confirmar los casos y, por ende, la magnitud real del problema no se conoce.…”

“…Sedangkan DBD ditandai dengan demam, perdarahan, pembesaran hati, trombositopenia, dan kebocoran plasma (dapat berwujud hemokonsentrasi, efusi pleura, asites, dan hipoalbumin) yang jika berat dapat menimbulkan syok. 1,5 Demam berdarah dengue hampir selalu terjadi pada dua kelompok umur yaitu pasien dewasa dan anak dengan infeksi dengue sekunder yang heterolog, sedangkan bayi dengan infeksi primer yang lahir dari ibu yang imun terhadap IVD. Mekanisme yang paling bertanggung jawab diyakini adalah ADE (antibody dependent enhancement).…”

“…7 Kedua, bayi dengan IVD primer mempunyai karakteristik unik dan lebih berpotensi menuju DBD/SSD dan membahayakan jiwa dibandingkan kelompok usia yang lebih tua. 5 Ketiga, insiden bayi dengan IVD simtomatik jauh lebih kecil dibandingkan yang tanpa gejala sehingga memberi kesan bahwa angka kejadian yang sebenarnya sebetulnya lebih tinggi. 3,5,6,[8][9][10] Demam berdarah dengue pada bayi telah dilaporkan pertama kali pada tahun 1969 oleh Halstead dkk.…”
