Abstract

From 1975 to 1983, we clinically studied 1,451 serologically confirmed cases of dengue hemorrhagic fever in Jakarta, Indonesia. Of these cases, 142 were virologically confirmed. Considering these 142 cases, dengue type 3 was the predominant virus type isolated, but all 4 dengue virus serotypes were found. Dengue type 3 was the serotype most frequently associated with severe infections. Whereas 67 (47%) of the 142 patients had a dengue type 3 infection, this serotype was associated with 27 of the 34 fatal cases (79%). Dengue type 3 was found in 42 of the 75 cases with shock (56%), 31 of the 42 cases with encephalopathy (74%), and 19 of the 30 cases with gastrointestinal bleeding (63%).

Abstract

Experience with salmonella meningitis in the newborn and young infantsbelow the age of 40 days hospitalized during the period 1976- 1979 was described. They constituted 8.6% of the 324 cases of purulent meningitis in children in approximately 20.000 admissions in the 4-year-period. There was a preponderance of males among the patients and the youngest case was 2 days old. The Salmonella serotypes isolated from cerebral spinal fluid were havana ( 17 cases J and oranienburg (11 cases). Of particular interest is the fact that 4 of the infants and their mothers showed the identical offending organisms isolated from the spinal fluid and rectal swab. The most common predisposing maternal obstetric complicationswere fever and premature rupture of the amniotic membranes, whereas the predisposing factors in the infants were infections, asphyxia arul prematurity. Ventriculitis, subdural effusion/empyema and hydrocephalus were the most common complications. A brief discussion has been made on the appropriate time to perform ventricular tap.
