Dengue is not a single disease with a single outcome. While most infections cause a self-limited fever, severe dengue follows a different and far more dangerous path. This article explains the critical differences between dengue fever and dengue hemorrhagic fever, why the highest risk often appears when fever breaks, and how recognizing plasma leakage can save lives.
Genetic mutations drive widespread multidrug resistance in Helicobacter pylori strains from Colombia, limiting the effectiveness of standard treatments and underscoring the need for precision-based therapy.
Dengue can occur without fever in children. An 18-year pediatric cohort study from Nicaragua shows that fever-based case definitions miss laboratory-confirmed dengue cases, some of which still display warning signs of severity. These findings reveal a critical blind spot in pediatric dengue surveillance.
