Indonesia is a dengue endemic area and it has an epidemic once in 4-5 years. Until now it tends to increase in number of cases as well as its widespread. Researchers investigated that socio-demography, knowledge and attitudes related to dengue disease affecting the participation of housewives in prevention of dengue fever dengue mosquito through questionnaires and interviews. This research was conducted descriptively with cross sectional approach to 72 housewives in sub-district Muara Dua, Lhokseumawe, Aceh, Indonesia using sample purposive sampling process. The relationship between the characteristics of housewives with their involvement in prevention of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) was analyzed using Pearson correlation analysis. More than 75% of respondents live in endemic areas and over 68% of respondents knew that dengue is transmitted through mosquitoes. 50% of respondents knew that 3M (draining the water reservoir, closing the water reservoir and burying the garbage) Plus as DHF prevention but only 37.5% of respondents have applied 3M Plus even though they know that it needs to be continuously done throughout the year especially in the rainy season. The respondents' participation in prevention of DHF disease in moderate category was 50 respondents (69.44%), 9 respondents (12.5%) were categorized as low in participation and only 13 respondents (18.06%) were categorized as very good in participation in the effort to eliminate DHF. There was a highly significant correlation between knowledge and attitude (p <0.01) and there was a significant correlation in education (p <0.05) of housewives with their actions in the prevention of dengue hemorrhagic fever. This reflects the urgent need for advocacy programs in raising awareness of DHF in the community. The nearest inter-sector collaborates with the medical, veterinary, community and local authority sectors to ensure the availability of DHF prevention services besides 3M Plus, also a monitoring officer/home and public health service to undertake health promotion programs of DHF prevention. This is a key element to eliminate deaths from dengue fever which occur every year.

Dengue Virus infection is always found in some part of the world especially South East Asia including Indonesia. The pathogenesis of Dengue Virus infection is still controversial. The aim of this study is to analyze the role complement activity, TNFα & IL12 in Dengue Virus infection especially in pathogenesis of Dengue Virus infection. Cross sectional study had been done since February 2009 in Dr. Soetomo Hospital Surabaya. Blood Sera of Dengue Virus infection were collected from Dengue Fever, and Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever patient who had been care in Paediatric. Dengue patients and time schedule for taking blood sample for examination CH50, TNFα & IL12 as follow: on the first day on admission, the second day, the third day. Study groups of patients as follow: Dengue Fever, 36; Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever grade I, 37; Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever grade II, 10; Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever grade III, 18; Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever grade IV, 6. In this study found that the higher activity complement which lower level CH50 was more identified on Dengue Shock Syndrome and Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever grade III than Dengue Fever cases. A concept of our study was focusing on manifestation of vascular leakage, measurement of complement activity CH50, TNFα & IL12 and clinical manifestation Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever. The examination of TNFα & IL12 in our study supported the role the activity complement. The conclusion are measurement CH50, TNFα & IL12 can be used as a predictive factor of the degree of Dengue Virus infection

Abstract: Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) is an acute fever disease with high mortality and morbidity in many regions of the world. Leucopenia and thrombocytopenia are two of several laboratory findings that could be found in the course of DHF. This was an analytical retrospective study with a cross sectional design. Samples were patients diagnosed with DHF in Prof. Dr. R.D Kandou General Hospital Manado during the period of 2012. The inclusion criteria were patients <15 years, were diagnosed as DHF according to WHO 1997 criteria, and were examined for platelet and white blood cell count. This study used the medical record data which were analyzed statistically by using the Pearson's correlation test. There were 137 children with DHF during the period of 2012. Samples were 56 children that fulfiled the inclusion criteria. The Pearson correlation test showed a P value 0.801 and correlation coefficient r = -0.034 that indicated that there was a negative correlation which was not significant. Conclusion: There was no significant correlation between the number of thrombocytes and leukocytes in children with dengue hemorrhagic fever.Keywords: dengue hemorrhagic fever, leukocyte, thrombocyteAbstrak: Demam berdarah dengue (DBD) merupakan penyakit demam akut dengan morbiditas dan mortalitas yang tinggi di banyak daerah di dunia.

ABSTRACT Dengue is the most common mosquito-borne viral disease in humans. The spread of both mosquito vectors and viruses has led to the resurgence of epidemic dengue fever (a self-limited flu-like syndrome) and the emergence of dengue hemorrhagic fever (severe dengue with bleeding abnormalities) in urban centers of the tropics. There are no animal or laboratory models of dengue disease; indirect evidence suggests that dengue viruses differ in virulence, including their pathogenicities for humans and epidemic potential. We developed two assay systems (using human dendritic cells and Aedes aegypti mosquitoes) for measuring differences in virus replication that correlate with the potential to cause hemorrhagic dengue and increased virus transmission. Infection and growth experiments showed that dengue serotype 2 viruses causing dengue hemorrhagic fever epidemics (Southeast Asian genotype) can outcompete viruses that cause dengue fever only (American genotype). This fact implies that Southeast Asian genotype viruses will continue to displace other viruses, causing more hemorrhagic dengue epidemics.

Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) is a public health problem in the world and also in Indonesia. One of the districts in Central Java that is still having problems with this disease is Banyumas, Indonesia. The incidence rate (IR) data in 2018 was 2.75 per 100,000 populations and the case fatality rate (CFR) was 3.64%. Spatiotemporal analysis was used to determine local variation, geographic determination of risk zones, and measurement of disease control interventions. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the distribution and grouping of dengue cases based on the spatiotemporal analysis. The design was observational with a cross-sectional spatial analysis. This study was conducted in Banyumas, Indonesia with the analysis unit for dengue fever patients in 2018 using as many as 57 cases. Furthermore, the data analysis used includes overlay, buffering, and clustering with SaTScan and ArcGis software. The results showed that there was a clustering of dengue cases in Banyumas, with one primary and three secondary clusters detected. The primary cluster occurred in March-April 2018, involving four sub-districts in urban areas. It was then concluded that the significantly identified clusters indicate a transmission of dengue fever in the Banyumas area with a radius of three kilometers.

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is caused by dengue virus carried by Aides Aigepty mosquitoes. Since 2015 there has been a typical DHF in Payaman Village as 3 people and one of them was died in 2016. One typical of DHF has been an Extraordinary Occurrence in the health sector. One that can trigger dengue disease is the low rate of larvae free. Eradication of DHF can be done with Mosquito Nest eradication activity. In this study aims to analyze the actions of villagers who can trigger dengue disease and actions that can prevent dengue disease. The research method used is descriptive quantitative. Data source used is primary data and secondary data. Primary data was collected by interviewing questionnaires in each house. To support the completeness of the data used qualitative methods by conducting in-depth interviews on various related sectors. Secondary data is taken from Payaman Village Dasawisma data and Village Profile data. The results of the study found that the villagers of Payaman, especially RT 15-22 have acts that can trigger dengue fever, such as the handling of late dengue cases, not drain the water reservoir, poor waste management of households, the management of used less precise and laying the animal cage inside the house. While the actions that can be used to prevent dengue fever is using mosquito nets when sleeping and keep fish in water reservoirs. It needs to be improved by changing actions that can trigger dengue disease into actions that can prevent dengue disease that drains the water reservoir, manages household waste well, manages the used goods in the right way and puts the animal cage outdoors. In addition, dengue fever can be prevented by eradicating mosquito breeding and preventing mosquito bites. Growing mosquito breeding and preventing mosquito bites can be done with 3M plus movement.Keywords: dengue fever, payaman village, citizen action, 3M plus

Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) is a disease that is still a problem in Indonesia, including Bali. The Padangbai Karangasem port area is one of the entrances to countries that are not yet free from dengue fever cases, because there are still reported cases of dengue fever. The number of House of Aedes Flicking Index is still more than 1%. Based on Minister of Health Decree number 431 of 2007 Port Buffer Area <1%. The implementation of the Mosquito Nest Eradication through 3M Plus is the most effective effort to prevent the transmission of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever.The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between knowledge, attitudes and infrastructure with the behavior of implementing the Eradication of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever Nests. The research design was quantitative with a cross sectional design. This research was conducted in the Padangbai Karangasem Port Area, Bali. Data collection used a questionnaire about Knowledge, Attitudes,facilities and infrastructure and Behavior for Eradicating Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever Eradication. The number of samples of 89 respondents was taken proportional random sampling. The results showed that Knowledge, Attitudes and Infrastructure were significantly related to the eradication behavior of dengue fever mosquitoes due to the value of p<α=0.,05. The most dominant variable associated with the implementation behavior of Eradication of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever Eradication is Knowledge Variable because the highest OR value is 4.287 compared to Attitudes and infrastructure.

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is a dengue infection which can cause shock and leads to mortality. Hypoalbuminemia is a marker of plasma leakage in DHF and correlated with severity of in fl ammatory response triggered by infection, including DHF. C-Reactive Protein (CRP) is a proin fl ammatory marker that also increases in DHF. This study aims to determine a correlation of CRP/albumin ratio with severity of DHF. Cross sectional study on pediatric patients diagnosed as DHF at Saiful Anwar Malang Hospital was done in July-December 2016. CRP levels were examined using immunoturbidimetry method, while albumin was examined by using Bromocresol Green (BCG) method. Correlation of CRP/albumin ratio with DHF severity was analyzed by using Pearson correlation test.The result showed that there were signi fi cant diff erences in CRP levels and CRP/albumin ratios in the Dengue Shock Syndrome (DSS) and non-DSS group (p = 0.002, p = 0.001, α<0.05). There was no signi fi cant diff erence in albumin level in the same group (p = 0.207, α <0.05). Positive correlation found in CRP and CRP/albumin ratio (r = 0.46, r = 0.49, α <0.01). On the contrary the negative correlation was found in albumin (r = -0.21, α <0.01). This is presumably because albumin is an acute phase protein which will decrease along with the severity of infection. In contrast, CRP will increase during the critical phase of infection. It can be concluded that the CRP/albumin ratio was positively correlated with DHF severity, as well as CRP levels, but not positively correlatedwith albumin.
