Emergence of Dengue Virus Serotype 2 Cosmopolitan Genotype in Costa Rica.
Dengue virus produces dengue fever, which can cause severe manifestations. Virus serotype and genotype may impact the epidemiology and severity of the disease. At the Hospital México (Costa Rica), dengue diagnosis and serotyping are performed with molecular tests, but selected samples are sequenced using Illumina technology. In May 2024, we analyzed two dengue-positive samples through genomic sequencing and detected dengue serotype 2, Cosmopolitan genotype. Phylogenetic comparisons revealed that the Costa Rican genomes are closely related to those from Brazil, Peru, and Colombia. Molecular dating estimated that the sequences from Costa Rica diverged in January 2024, suggesting that this genotype may already have been circulating in the country. The emergence of this genotype could impact the severity and epidemiology of dengue in Costa Rica. Therefore, genomic and epidemiological surveillance of dengue cases locally is important to better understand the public health impact of this new genotype in the country.
期刊介绍：
The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, established in 1921, is published monthly by the American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene. It is among the top-ranked tropical medicine journals in the world publishing original scientific articles and the latest science covering new research with an emphasis on population, clinical and laboratory science and the application of technology in the fields of tropical medicine, parasitology, immunology, infectious diseases, epidemiology, basic and molecular biology, virology and international medicine.
The Journal publishes unsolicited peer-reviewed manuscripts, review articles, short reports, images in Clinical Tropical Medicine, case studies, reports on the efficacy of new drugs and methods of treatment, prevention and control methodologies,new testing methods and equipment, book reports and Letters to the Editor. Topics range from applied epidemiology in such relevant areas as AIDS to the molecular biology of vaccine development.
The Journal is of interest to epidemiologists, parasitologists, virologists, clinicians, entomologists and public health officials who are concerned with health issues of the tropics, developing nations and emerging infectious diseases. Major granting institutions including philanthropic and governmental institutions active in the public health field, and medical and scientific libraries throughout the world purchase the Journal.
Two or more supplements to the Journal on topics of special interest are published annually. These supplements represent comprehensive and multidisciplinary discussions of issues of concern to tropical disease specialists and health issues of developing countries
