Neurological Complications in Dengue Among Males of the Adult Age Group.

Neurological problems are more frequently linked to dengue, a mosquito-transmitted virus common in tropical areas. This review study thoroughly examines the effects of dengue on adult males' neurological systems. Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) or dengue shock syndrome (DSS) can develop in severe cases of dengue fever caused by the dengue virus (DENV). Unsettlingly, it is thought that a sizable portion of DENV infections impact the central nervous system (CNS), which calls into question the former theory that the DENV is not neurotropic. This review dissects the many neurological manifestations of dengue, spanning from encephalopathy, encephalitis, and other CNS implications to peripheral neuromuscular issues, through the systematic analysis of publications gathered from PubMed. The essay emphasizes the immunological reactions brought on by DENV infections and offers a deeper understanding of the pathophysiology. Given that they exhibit similar first symptoms, Zika and chikungunya are two more illnesses that must be distinguished from dengue. The mainstay of current diagnostic methods is serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) tests, although supportive care is still used. This review highlights the importance of tracking neurological symptoms in dengue patients and encourages more studies in this area.
