We report epidemiology of dengue infection as revealed through a hospital based surveillance for dengue infection over a 3 year period in Lucknow, U.P., India. In 2003-2005, children with acute febrile encephalopathy (AFE) and in 2005-2006, children with acute undifferentiated febrile illness (AUFI) were enrolled. IgM antibodies to dengue were tested by ELISA in acute serum. A total of 118/563 (20.9%) patients tested positive for dengue antibodies. Dengue transmission occurred round the year in the Lucknow region with peak in postmonsoon season and occurred equally in rural and urban areas. All the surrounding districts were affected, with no distinct high prevalence areas.
我们报告了印度北方邦勒克瑙市为期3年的基于医院的登革热感染监测所揭示的登革热感染流行病学情况。在2003 - 2005年,纳入了患有急性发热性脑病(AFE)的儿童,在2005 - 2006年,纳入了患有急性未分化发热性疾病(AUFI)的儿童。通过酶联免疫吸附测定法(ELISA)检测急性血清中的登革热IgM抗体。共有118/563(20.9%)例患者登革热抗体检测呈阳性。勒克瑙地区全年都有登革热传播,在季风后季节达到高峰,且在农村和城市地区传播情况相同。所有周边地区都受到影响,没有明显的高流行区域。
