“…Um dos artigos analisados foi resultante de um debate ocorrido no seminário "Aedes aegypti: antigas e novas emergências sanitárias", com historiadores, sociólogos e outros pesquisadores, dessa forma, permitindo uma visão holística da situação enfrentada. Nele, foi explanado sobre o impacto gerado pelo Zika vírus, não somente para as grávidas e recém-nascidos, mas também na história, nas mudanças sociais e na herança deixada (ALVIS-GUZMÁN et al, 2017).…”

Objetivo: Artigo de revisão que foca nas Arboviroses, em especial no Zika vírus, e nas dúvidas acerca dessa temática, que segundo os autores estudados precisam ser esclarecidas. Tentou-se resumir as informações recentes acerca do quadro clínico, epidemiologia, meios de transmissão, diagnóstico e as consequências do vírus Zika e demais arboviroses no Brasil. Métodos: a busca foi realizada na base de dados SciELO utilizando como palavra-chave o termo “Zika”, dos artigos identificados, 120 correspondiam aos critérios de inclusão e exclusão. Estes, foram lidos na íntegra, resumidos e passados por um procedimento de análise e posteriormente organizados em planilha de acordo com critérios estabelecidos previamente. Resultados: é possível afirmar que ações em curto prazo devem se concentrar no combate ao mosquito vetor, manter a população informada e profissionais capacitados, a médio e longo prazo deve-se priorizar o desenvolvimento de terapias antivirais e de uma vacina, principalmente para mulheres grávidas expostas ao Zika. Conclusão: esse estudo visa estimular o desenvolvimento de pesquisas na área, visto que não há unificação científica sobre a patogênese dessa infecção.

“…The first autochthonous ZIKV cases were reported in the north-eastern region of Brazil in late 2014 [4]. By February 2016, local transmission of ZIKV was reported in over 20 countries in the Americas, including a major outbreak in Colombia, for which 65,726 cases were reported by April 2016 [5]. Both of these arboviral infections can lead to significant disability adjusted life years (DALYs) in the affected populations [6][7][8].…”

“…Barranquilla is the fourth largest city in Colombia, with a population of nearly 1.4 million individuals and a population density of 7,017 persons per square kilometre [20]. The city, divided into six (1-6) economic strata [5], is estimated to house 56% of its population in the poorest of those strata [21]. This city has been an epicentre of recent outbreaks of CHIKV and ZIKV [6,22].…”

Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) and Zika virus (ZIKV) have recently emerged as global infections with consequential disability adjusted life years (DALYs) and economic burden. This study aimed to explore the spatiotemporal heterogeneity in the occurrence of CHIKV and ZIKV outbreaks throughout Barranquilla, Colombia during 2014 and 2016 and explored the potential for clustering. Incidence data were fitted using multiple Bayesian Poisson models based on a suite of explanatory variables as potential risk factors and multiple options for random effects. A best fit model was used to analyse the case incidence risk for both epidemics to identify any risk factors during their epidemics. Neighbourhoods in the northern region of Barranquilla were hotspots for the outbreaks of both CHIKV and ZIKV. Additional hotspots occurred in the south-western and central regions of the CHIKV and ZIKV outbreaks, respectively. Multivariate conditional autoregressive models strongly identified higher socioeconomic strata (SES) and residing in detached houses as risk factors for ZIKV case incidences. These novel findings challenge the belief that these infections are driven by social vulnerability and merits further study both in Barranquilla and throughout the tropical and subtropical regions of the world.

“…conducted a case series study and literature review to understand variations in the clinical course of arboviral infections among immunosuppressed patients. Here, we present one of the most extensive case series reported, with 10 cases of CHIKV infection in SOT recipients during the 2015 outbreak in Colombia, when 359.728cases of Asian genotype CHIKV infections were reported in our country 16,17. …”

Chikungunya virus is a recent emerging arbovirus in Latin America, and the clinical manifestations can vary from fever and rash to severe chronic inflammatory arthritis. Few reports have been published regarding this infection in immunocompromised patients, including solid organ transplant recipients. We report a case series of solid organ transplant recipients with confirmed Chikungunya infection by positive reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), identified between January 2014 and December 2016. In addition, we conducted a literature review searching PubMed, EMBASE, and LILACS databases on Chikungunya infection in solid organ transplant recipients. Ten solid organ transplant recipients were included, consisting of 5 kidney, 4 liver, and 1 liver/kidney transplant recipient. Mean age of the transplant recipients was 47 years, and the most frequent symptoms of Chikungunya infection were arthralgia and fever. None of the patients required treatment in the intensive care unit, no deaths or graft rejection occurred. None of our patients had recurrent arthritis during 3-month follow-up period after the infection. Twenty-one cases of Chikungunya virus were identified in the literature review. Most cases had a benign clinical course with no severe complications, death, or chronic inflammatory arthritis. In conclusion, Chikungunya infection in solid organ transplant recipients has a benign course and has no chronic recurrent arthritis. It is possible that the immunosuppression regimen could decrease the risk of severe or chronic inflammatory manifestations in solid organ transplant recipients infected with Chikungunya.
