Abstract
Background Dengue virus (DENV) causes an important disease and directly affects public health, being the arbovirus that presents the highest number of infections and deaths in the Western Brazilian Amazon. This virus is divided into 4 serotypes that have already circulated in the region. Methodology Molecular characterization of a cohort containing 841 samples collected from febrile patients between 2021 and 2023 was analyzed using a commercial kit to detect the main arboviruses circulating in Brazil: Zika, DENV-1, DENV-2, DENV-3, DENV-4 and, Chikungunya. Subsequently, Sanger sequencing was performed for positive samples. Results The cohort detected 162 positive samples, 12 for DENV-1 and 150 identified as DENV-2, indicating co-circulation of serotypes. The samples were subjected to sequencing and the analysis of the sequences that obtained good quality revealed that 5 samples belonged to the V genotype of DENV-1 and 46 were characterized as DENV-2 Cosmopolitan genotype-lineage 5. Conclusion The results allowed us to identify for the first time the Cosmopolitan genotype in Rondônia, Brazilian Western Amazon, and its fast spread dispersion.

Bezerra JMT, Sousa SCD, Tauil PL, Carneiro M, Barbosa DS. Entry of dengue virus serotypes and their geographic distribution in Brazilian federative units: a systematic review. REVISTA BRASILEIRA DE EPIDEMIOLOGIA 2021; 24:e210020. [PMID: 33825776 DOI: 10.1590/1980-549720210020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/06/2020] [Accepted: 11/09/2020] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To describe the entry of Dengue virus (DENV) serotypes in Brazil and its federative units. METHODS A systematic review of studies published between 1980 and 2018 in databases and in the gray literature was performed using descriptors related to the years of entry of the DENV serotypes. Additionally, experts and official sources of information (Brazilian Ministry of Health) were consulted. RESULTS From 100 publications selected for the systematic review, 26 addressed the entry of DENV serotypes in the North region of the country, 33 in the Northeast, 24 in the Southeast, 14 in the Central-West, and five in the South. DENV-1 and DENV-4 were introduced in the North region in 1981. DENV-2 was introduced in the Southeast in 1990. DENV-3 was introduced in the North in 1999. CONCLUSION The rapid expansion of dengue throughout the Brazilian territory was verified from the second half of the 1980s, with the gradual entry of the four serotypes, which resulted in the emergence of epidemics of arbovirus, which are currently verified in the country. Considering the epidemiology of the disease, more information should be disseminated and published in the wide-ranging scientific literature for a better understanding of the spread and circulation of DENV serotypes.

Phylogenetic Characterization of Arboviruses in Patients Suffering from Acute Fever in Rondônia, Brazil. Viruses 2020; 12:v12080889. [PMID: 32823806 PMCID: PMC7472125 DOI: 10.3390/v12080889] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2020] [Revised: 07/31/2020] [Accepted: 08/02/2020] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
The purpose of the study was to classify, through phylogenetic analyses, the main arboviruses that have been isolated in the metropolitan region of Porto Velho, Rondônia, Brazil. Serum samples from patients with symptoms suggesting arboviruses were collected and tested by One Step RT-qPCR for Zika, Dengue (serotypes 1–4), Chikungunya, Mayaro and Oropouche viruses. Positive samples were amplified by conventional PCR and sequenced utilizing the Sanger method. The obtained sequences were aligned, and an evolutionary analysis was carried out using Bayesian inference. A total of 308 samples were tested. Of this total, 20 had a detectable viral load for Dengue, being detected DENV1 (18/20), co-infection DENV1 and DENV2 (1/20) and DENV4 (1/20). For Dengue serotype 3 and for the CHIKV, ZIKV, MAYV and OROV viruses, no individuals with a detectable viral load were found. A total of 9 of these samples were magnified by conventional PCR for sequencing. Of these, 6 were successfully sequenced and, according to the evolutionary profile, 5 corresponded to serotype DENV-1 genotype V, and 1 to serotype DENV-4 genotype II. In the study, we demonstrate co-circulation of the DENV-1 genotype V and the DENV-4 genotype II. Co-circulation of several DENV serotypes in the same city poses a risk to the population and is correlated with the increase of the most severe forms of the disease. Similarly, co-circulation of genetically distinct DENV and the occurrence of simultaneous infections can affect recombination events and lead to the emergence of more virulent isolates.

Epidemiological profile of Zika, Dengue and Chikungunya virus infections identified by medical and molecular evaluations in Rondonia, Brazil. Rev Inst Med Trop Sao Paulo 2019; 61:e40. [PMID: 31432989 PMCID: PMC6710006 DOI: 10.1590/s1678-9946201961040] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2019] [Accepted: 07/05/2019] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Several arboviruses have emerged and/or re-emerged in North, Central and
South-American countries. Viruses from some regions of Africa and Asia, such as
the Zika and Chikungunya virus have been introduced in new continents causing
major public health problems. The aim of this study was to investigate the
presence of RNA from Zika, Dengue and Chikungunya viruses in symptomatic
patients from Rondonia, where the epidemiological profile is still little known,
by one-step real-time RT-PCR. The main clinical signs and symtoms were fever
(51.2%), headache (78%), chills (6.1%), pruritus (12.2%), exanthema (20.1%),
arthralgia (35.3%), myalgia (26.8%) and retro-orbital pain (19.5%). Serum from
164 symptomatic patients were collected and tested for RNA of Zika, Dengue types
1 to 4 and Chikungunya viruses, in addition to antibodies against Dengue NS1
antigen. Direct microscopy for Malaria was also performed. Only ZIKV RNA was
detected in 4.3% of the patients, and in the remaining 95.7% of the patients RNA
for Zika, Dengue and Chikungunya viruses were not detected. This finding is
intriguing as the region has been endemic for Dengue for a long time and more
recently for Chikungunya virus as well. The results indicated that medical and
molecular parameters obtained were suitable to describe the first report of
symptomatic Zika infections in this region. Furthermore, the low rate of
detection, compared to clinical signs and symptoms as the solely diagnosis
criteria, suggests that molecular assays for detection of viruses or other
pathogens that cause similar symptoms should be used and the corresponding
diseases could be included in the compulsory notification list.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Dengue is one of the most prevalent infectious diseases in Brazil and is a major public health problem worldwide. It is most prevalent in tropical and subtropical regions with 2.5 to 3 billion people at risk of becoming infected. Thus, this study sought to demonstrate the epidemiological characteristics of individuals affected by dengue, its prevalence and its epidemic process in the Middle Solimões region of Coari in the state of Amazonas between 2008 and 2009. METHODS Epidemiological data were obtained through epidemiological monitoring by the Municipal Health Facility of the city of Coari, AM. The variables analyzed were the month of notification, the number of confirmed cases, the cases' genders, the cases' ages and their neighborhoods of residence. RESULTS In total, 1,003 cases were reported (635 in 2008 and 368 in 2009), and 639 cases were diagnosed as positive. Of these, +54% involved female subjects, and +46% were male. The majority of the affected individuals were between 10 and 49 years of age, and the spatial distribution was concentrated in neighborhoods near streams, lakes and areas in which housing had recently been disrupted. CONCLUSIONS We concluded that, during the period studied, there was an outbreak of dengue in the City of Coari, AM. However, it is possible that a dengue epidemic may have occurred earlier in Coari without proper diagnosis or follow-up and that previously infected individuals may have traveled to the capital of Amazonas (Manaus), where the virus has circulated since 1998.
