“…Likewise, in a study of a recent HAV epidemic in France, 54% of patients had been diagnosed with at least one concurrent sexually transmitted disease (syphilis, chlamydia, and gonococcal infection) [ 50 ]. Ghosh et al [ 51 ] discovered dengue fever coinfection in six HAV patients who also had anti-HAV IgM antibodies. Moreover, goal G described the case of a 4-year-old kid who had a partial recovery from an HAV infection but later had dengue fever.…”

Hepatitis A virus (HAV) is one of the well-known viruses that cause hepatitis all around the globe. Although this illness has decreased in developed countries due to extensive immunization, numerous developing and under-developed countries are struggling with this virus. HAV infection can be spread by oral-fecal contact, and there are frequent epidemics through nutrition. Improvements in socioeconomic and sanitary circumstances have caused a shift in the disease’s prevalence worldwide. Younger children are usually asymptomatic, but as they become older, the infection symptoms begin to appear. Symptoms range from slight inflammation and jaundice to acute liver failure in older individuals. While an acute infection may be self-limiting, unrecognized persistent infections, and the misapplication of therapeutic methods based on clinical guidelines are linked to a higher incidence of cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma, and mortality. Fortunately, most patients recover within two months of infection, though 10–15% of patients will relapse within the first six months. A virus seldom leads to persistent infection or liver damage. The mainstay of therapy is based on supportive care. All children from 12–23 months, as well as some susceptible populations, should receive routine vaccinations, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the American Academy of Pediatrics. Laboratory diagnosis of HAV is based on antigen detection, checking liver enzyme levels, and antibody screening. Furthermore, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technology has identified HAV in suspected nutrition sources; therefore, this technique is used for preventative measures and food-related laws.

“…Misdiagnosis increases morbidity and mortality. There were 175 cases of dengue fever in children, with 86.9% having pure dengue fever and 13.1% having other diseases (57.4% typhoid fever, 26% hepatitis A, 8.7% hepatitis E, 4.3% urinary tract infection, and 4.3% pneumonia) (Ghosh et al, 2020).…”

Background: Dengue and typhoid fever are endemic diseases with similar symptoms and characteristics, necessitating rapid and accurate diagnosis. Aim: The purpose of this article is to describe cases of dengue or typhoid fever in children, and children who infected both diseases. This case reports from three children suffering from infectious diseases in one of DKI Jakarta Regional Jakarta and focuses on the patient's body temperature. Result: The findings revealed that children with typhoid fever experienced an increase temperature from the evening until early morning on average, with the temperature gradually rising. Child with dengue fever is immediately high, usually above 390C, and the body temperature fluctuates during the patient's hospitalization. Children who infected both diseases showed the body temperature rises sharply towards the night, above 390C. Conclusion: Early detection of characteristics body temperature this infectious disease in children can reduce the risk of complications and hasten the patient's recovery.
