The challenge of emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases
TL;DR: Infectious diseases have for centuries ranked with wars and famine as major challenges to human progress and survival and remain among the leading causes of death and disability worldwide.

TL;DR: A global strategy aimed at increasing the capacity for surveillance and outbreak response, changing behaviours and reducing the disease burden using integrated vector management in conjunction with early and accurate diagnosis has been advocated.

TL;DR: Higher peak titers were associated with increased disease severity for the 31 patients with a peak titer identified, and increased dengue disease severity correlated with high viremia titer, secondary d Dengue virus infection, and DEN-2 virus type.

TL;DR: The first structure of a flavivirus has been determined by using a combination of cryoelectron microscopy and fitting of the known structure of glycoprotein E into the electron density map, suggesting that flaviviruses employ a fusion mechanism in which the distal beta barrels of domain II of the glycop Protein E are inserted into the cellular membrane.

Rapid detection and typing of dengue viruses from clinical samples by using reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction.
TL;DR: The accumulated data demonstrated that dengue viruses can be accurately detected and typed from viremic human serum samples.

Pathogenesis of dengue: challenges to molecular biology
TL;DR: This work has identified a severe syndrome, dengue hemorrhagic fever/dengue shock syndrome, in Southeast Asian children, which recently has also been identified in children infected with the virus in Puerto Rico.

Journal ArticleDOI
Research on dengue during World War II.
TL;DR: Dengue research was brought from the field into the laboratory and further progress has been made possible by work on experimental animals instead of on human volunteers, and a great deal more was learned about the basic properties of the dengue viruses.
