Ten years ago Scott Halstead published a seminal review outlining the challenge to science provided by dengue. Our review summarizes recent efforts to meet this challenge and discusses the potential practical implications of basic research. One major long-term goal is the development of a vaccine, and several different strategies are currently being advanced. Clinical studies on dengue continue to help physicians make rational choices in disease management.
十年前,斯科特·霍尔斯特德发表了一篇具有开创性的综述,概述了登革热给科学带来的挑战。我们的综述总结了近期应对这一挑战的努力,并讨论了基础研究可能产生的实际影响。一个主要的长期目标是研发一种疫苗,目前正在推进几种不同的策略。关于登革热的临床研究继续帮助医生在疾病管理中做出合理选择。
