A case report of dengue haemorrhagic fever complicated with psoas haematoma requiring blood transfusion

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases, 2019
Background Dengue fever is a common infection with increasing numbers of patients affected. Muscle haematomas are a rare complication of dengue fever. In most cases haematomas resolve spontaneously. Case presentation We report a case of spontaneous psoas

Analysis of Gene Expression in Aedes aegypti Suggests Changes in Early Genetic Control of Mosquito Development

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aedes aegypti, a critical vector for tropical diseases, poses significant challenges for studying its embryogenesis due to difficulties in removing its rigid chorion and achieving effective fixation for in situ hybridization. Here, we present novel methodologies for fixation, dechorionation, DAPI staining, and in situ hybridization, enabling ...

Impaired Fibrinolysis in the Pathogenesis of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The mechanisms contributing to bleeding complications in dengue hemorrhagic fever were studied by investigating the pattern of activation of the coagulation and fibrinolytic systems in 50 children with severe dengue hemorrhagic fever.

Chain‐End Grafting of RAFT Polyelectrolyte Macroligands to Stabilize Near‐Infrared‐Emitting Gold Nanoclusters

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Surface‐functionalized gold nanoclusters (AuNCs) are synthesized in situ by chain‐end grafting of RAFT polyelectrolytes at room temperature directly in water. It leads to highly stable polymer‐AuNCs nanohybrids emitting near‐infrared photoluminescence with µs lifetimes. ABSTRACT With their photoluminescence properties, gold nanoclusters (AuNCs, d<2 nm)

Modelling the control strategies against dengue in Singapore. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Notified cases of dengue infections in Singapore reached historical highs in 2004 (9459 cases) and 2005 (13,817 cases) and the reason for such an increase is still to be established.

Agricultural Fungicide Mancozeb in Leaf Litter Enhances Survival and Growth of Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae)

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mancozeb is one of the most widely used agricultural fungicides, exhibiting strong efficacy against a broad spectrum of phytopathogenic fungi. However, its widespread application comes at the cost of environmental contamination. Here, we show the effects of Inga vera leaf litter contamination with Mancozeb on life‐history traits of Aedes ...
