“…The true burden of GI bleeding varied in different studies and shows severity of dengue infection. The prevalence of GI bleeding in our study is comparatively low 11.0% while other studies have documented 48.6% 19 and 13.1%. 20 In a meta-analysis conducted by Zhang H et al has observed that dengue patients had 14 times higher risk of progression to severe dengue disease (SDD).…”

Objective: The objective behind this study was to determine the frequency of gastrointestinal signs and symptoms in patients with dengue fever in tertiary care hospital Methods: A cross sectional observational study was conducted on all adult patients diagnosed with dengue disease after taken informed consent from the patients and approval from the ethical committee of the hospital. All these patients were evaluated for the presence or absence of gastrointestinal (GI) manifestations. Those who had GI symptoms were further evaluated for the frequency of different types of GI symptoms. All baseline and clinical data were taken using a structured questionnaire and then entered & analysed using SPSS v. 26. Results: A total of 174 patients who were dengue virus positive were included for final analysis. Overall mean age and SD was 29.22±8.14 years and majority belongs to young age group, ≥16 – 40 years (60.11%, n = 104). Most of our study participants were males (75.86%, n = 132). Hypertension was the most common comorbid condition observed in our study participants (12.06%, n = 21). The overall prevalence of GI manifestations in our study who were dengue positive was 62.64% (n = 109). The most common GI symptom was presence of nausea/vomiting (70.64%, n = 77). Conclusion: The prevalence of GI manifestations in patients with dengue is quite high. Nausea/vomiting was the most common GI manifestation while patients with hepatomegaly and GI bleeding were also prevalent.

Purpose Knowledge regarding patients’ clinical condition at severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) detection is sparse. Data in the international, multicenter Lean European Open Survey on SARS-CoV-2-Infected Patients (LEOSS) cohort study may enhance the understanding of COVID-19. Methods Sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of SARS-CoV-2-infected patients, enrolled in the LEOSS cohort study between March 16, 2020, and May 14, 2020, were analyzed. Associations between baseline characteristics and clinical stages at diagnosis (uncomplicated vs. complicated) were assessed using logistic regression models. Results We included 2155 patients, 59.7% (1,287/2,155) were male; the most common age category was 66–85 years (39.6%; 500/2,155). The primary COVID-19 diagnosis was made in 35.0% (755/2,155) during complicated clinical stages. A significant univariate association between age; sex; body mass index; smoking; diabetes; cardiovascular, pulmonary, neurological, and kidney diseases; ACE inhibitor therapy; statin intake and an increased risk for complicated clinical stages of COVID-19 at diagnosis was found. Multivariable analysis revealed that advanced age [46–65 years: adjusted odds ratio (aOR): 1.73, 95% CI 1.25–2.42, p = 0.001; 66–85 years: aOR 1.93, 95% CI 1.36–2.74, p < 0.001; > 85 years: aOR 2.38, 95% CI 1.49–3.81, p < 0.001 vs. individuals aged 26–45 years], male sex (aOR 1.23, 95% CI 1.01–1.50, p = 0.040), cardiovascular disease (aOR 1.37, 95% CI 1.09–1.72, p = 0.007), and diabetes (aOR 1.33, 95% CI 1.04–1.69, p = 0.023) were associated with complicated stages of COVID-19 at diagnosis. Conclusion The LEOSS cohort identified age, cardiovascular disease, diabetes and male sex as risk factors for complicated disease stages at SARS-CoV-2 diagnosis, thus confirming previous data. Further data regarding outcomes of the natural course of COVID-19 and the influence of treatment are required.
