El dengue es la arbovirosis de mayor incidencia mundial y una importante causa de morbilidad y mortalidad. Debido a que la enfermedad se presenta en principio como un cuadro febril inespecífico, se requieren herramientas que permitan reconocer y clasificar a los pacientes con dengue en forma temprana. Un parámetro de utilidad en este sentido puede ser la presencia de linfocitos atípicos. Objetivo: revisar los resultados de los trabajos originales existentes en la literatura sobre linfocitos atípicos e infección por virus dengue y su papel en el diagnóstico y pronóstico de la enfermedad. Materiales y métodos: para la revisión se emplearon los motores de búsqueda PubMed y Lilacs, bajo la combinación de términos Dengue AND Atypical lymphocyte (OR Reactive lymphocyte, OR Turk cell), limitando los hallazgos a estudios en humanos. La información obtenidafue clasificada por su contenido. Solo se incluyeron en el presente trabajo los estudios relevantes para el tema. Resultados: se ajustaron 68 referencias a la estrategia de búsqueda empleada, pero solo doce correspondían al objeto de la revisión. Todos los estudios incluidos reportaron presenciade linfocitos atípicos como hallazgo hematológico particular en pacientes con dengue y aunque no fue un hallazgo específico de la enfermedad, su concentración fue significativamente superioren estos pacientes, sobre todo en cuadros severos de la misma. Conclusiones: de acuerdo con la evidencia encontrada, puede considerarse que existe una asociación entre la presencia de linfocitos atípicos y la infección por el virus dengue; sin embargo, la intensidad y utilidad de este hallazgo requiere mayor estudio y análisis.

This paper makes use of a short, sharp, unexpected health shock in the form of the 2010 Colombian Dengue outbreak to examine the direct and indirect impact of negative health shocks on behaviour of households in affected areas. Our analysis combines data from several sources in order to obtain a comprehensive picture of the influence of the outbreak, and furthermore to understand the underlying mechanisms driving the effects. Our initial analysis indicates that the outbreak had a substantial negative effect on the health status of adults and adversely affected their ability to function as usual in their daily lives. In our aggregated school data, in areas with high levels of haemorrhagic Dengue we observe a reduction innational exam attendance (last year of secondary school) and on enrolment rates in primary education. Further analysis aims to exploit detailed individual level data to gain a more in depth understanding of the precise channels through which this disease influenced the behaviour and outcomes of the poor in Colombia.

Dengue and Chikungunya viruses cause the most important arthropod-borne viral infections for humans. These viruses are predominant in tropical and subtropical regions. In addition, these viruses are predominant in tropical and subtropical regions. Dengue mortality rate is around 1.2 to 3.5% and deaths due to chikungunya fever are around 1 in 1000; however, half of chikungunya-infected patients evolve into a chronic state that can persist for months up to years. There are no antiviral drugs available for DENV and CHIKV treatment and prevention. Moreover, vector control strategies have failed so far. Thus, the development of potent inhibitors for a broad spectrum of RNA viruses is urgently needed. We established and characterized a new embryonic insect cell line from Culex quinquefasciatus mosquito. Also we established the flaviviruses and alphavirus replication, both in C6/36 and Lulo insect cell lines, as well as in Vero cell line. In addition we carried out a reference compound library and reference panel of assays and data for DENV, which provides a benchmark for further studies. During this study, a panel of 9 antiviral molecules, with proven in vitro anti-dengue virus activity and that act at different stages of the DENV life cycle, was selected. Finally, Favipiravir or T-705, was identified as inhibitor in vitro and in vivo of alphaviruses and the mutation K291R in nsP4, which is responsible of the polymerase activity, was found as the mode of action in CHIKV. Interestingly, lysine in motif F1 is also highly conserved in positive-stranded RNA viruses and this might explain the broad spectrum of T-705 antiviral activity.

This project investigates the effectiveness and feasibility of scaling-up an eco-bio-social approach for implementing an integrated community-based approach for dengue prevention in comparison with existing insecticide-based and emerging biolarvicide-based programs in an endemic setting in Machala, Ecuador.
