Detection of DENV-2 and ZIKV coinfection in southeastern Brazil by serum and urine testing.
Purpose: Aedes aegypti mosquito-borne diseases have a significant impact on public health in Brazil. In this study, we investigated the presence of the Zika virus (ZIKV) and dengue virus (DENV) in serum and urine samples from symptomatic participants who attended an Emergency Care Unit located in a city in the northwestern region of São Paulo between February 2018 and April 2019.
Methods: Serum and urine samples were collected from participants suspected of having arbovirus infection. After the extraction of viral RNA, viral detection was performed by real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) (One-Step RT-qPCR).
Results: A total of 305 participants participated in this study. A total of 283 blood and 270 urine samples were collected. Of 305 patients, 36.4% (111/305) were positive for ZIKV, 43.3% (132/305) for DENV2, and 0.3% (1/305) for DENV1. Coinfection with ZIKV/DENV2 was observed in 13.1% of participants. If only serum samples were used, ZIKV detection would have decreased to 23.3% (71/305). Of all the participants included in the study, only one was suspected of having ZIKV infection based on clinical diagnosis, and the remaining participants were suspected of having DENV.
Conclusion: By testing serum and urine samples, we increased the detection of both viruses and detected considerable levels of ZIKV and DENV-2 coinfection when compared to other studies. Additionally, we detected an unnoticed ZIKV outbreak in the city. These findings highlight the importance of the molecular diagnosis of arboviruses to aid public health surveillance and management strategies.
期刊介绍:
Medical Microbiology and Immunology (MMIM) publishes key findings on all aspects of the interrelationship between infectious agents and the immune system of their hosts. The journal´s main focus is original research work on intrinsic, innate or adaptive immune responses to viral, bacterial, fungal and parasitic (protozoan and helminthic) infections and on the virulence of the respective infectious pathogens.
MMIM covers basic, translational as well as clinical research in infectious diseases and infectious disease immunology. Basic research using cell cultures, organoid, and animal models are welcome, provided that the models have a clinical correlate and address a relevant medical question.
The journal also considers manuscripts on the epidemiology of infectious diseases, including the emergence and epidemic spreading of pathogens and the development of resistance to anti-infective therapies, and on novel vaccines and other innovative measurements of prevention.
The following categories of manuscripts will not be considered for publication in MMIM:
submissions of preliminary work, of merely descriptive data sets without investigation of mechanisms or of limited global interest,
manuscripts on existing or novel anti-infective compounds, which focus on pharmaceutical or pharmacological aspects of the drugs,
manuscripts on existing or modified vaccines, unless they report on experimental or clinical efficacy studies or provide new immunological information on their mode of action,
manuscripts on the diagnostics of infectious diseases, unless they offer a novel concept to solve a pending diagnostic problem,
case reports or case series, unless they are embedded in a study that focuses on the anti-infectious immune response and/or on the virulence of a pathogen.
