In the present cohort study, the percent positivity of non-hospitalized COVID-19 cases among male and female of different age group were analysed, during both first and second wave. A total of 1,75,739 patients, from non-hospitalised settings, were referred/walked-in to our diagnostic centre in the present cohort study between August 2020-June 2021. The collection and testing were approved by NABL, Government of India.: Of the tested samples, 40999 (39.15%) males and 28730 (40.46%) females were positive for COVID-19. The second wave (February 2021-June 2021) detected higher number of positive cases (13,922 vs 55,807, p<0.001). During the first wave (August 2020-January 2021), percent positivity was more amongst male (31.28±10.75%), but second wave recorded higher percent positivity amongst female (56.8±12.24%). Asymptomatic female cases were higher during both waves (2,769; 54.05±5.85% vs 14,166; 59.48±9.88%). The highest percent positivity was amongst older >60 years of age (37.47±16.69) in both waves and lowest amongst 18-30 years (23.17±13.86%). Fever was the predominant symptom in both waves (95%) followed by cough (70% vs 86%). Abdominal pain, nausea and chest pain were prominent in the first wave. Few reports are available from India on non-hospitalized COVID-19 patients. This study will help for developing knowledge on the role of symptomatic and asymptomatic cases in transmission of SARS-CoV-2 in Central part of India amongst non-hospitalized cases and will help for developing strategies to prepare for impending subsequent waves in disparate population groups across India.","PeriodicalId":13428,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Microbiology Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84186020","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In 2017, a concerning increase in dengue cases with high mortality was seen in India with Kerala topping the list. Changing pattern of circulating dengue virus serotype and co infection with multiple serotypes contribute to the increasing trend in severity and increased mortality of dengue fever. The present study focused to find the dengue serotypes prevalent in central Kerala and prevalence of co infection with multiple serotypes here with an attempt to correlate these with clinical severity of dengue: This descriptive study was done in the Microbiology department of Jubilee Mission Medical College, Thrissur for a period of 18 months. Blood samples of clinically suspected dengue fever cases which were positive for NS1 antigen and having fever not more than 5 days were subjected to molecular methods to detect dengue virus RNA followed by multiplex RTPCR to find its serotype. Demographic features, clinical details and lab parameters were also collected from each patient. A total of 108 samples positive for Dengue NS1 antigen were subjected to RT-PCR. Among them 61(56.5%) were positive by RT-PCR. All the 4 Dengue serotypes were found with DENV-2 with 30 cases (49.2%) being the predominant serotype followed by DENV-1 with 20 cases (32.8%), DENV-3 with 12 cases (19.6%) and DENV-4 with 2 cases (3.27%). Three cases (4.9%) of co infection with DENV-1,2, DENV-1, 4 and DENV-2,3 were also found. Two among the 108 patients (1.85%) died in the present study. Significant correlation between severity of dengue infection and serotypes could not be found due to very few severe cases encountered during the study. : The dengue serotypes predominant in central Kerala is DENV-2. The prevalence of co infection with multiple serotypes is 4.9% which proves that this area has become hyper endemic to the disease, which increases the risk of emergence of more severe cases.","PeriodicalId":13428,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Microbiology Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80123494","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
