ScholarBank@NUS Repository. https://doi.org/10.1093/ofid/ofy171 | Abstract: | Where dengue virus infections are endemic, acute febrile illness is often managed as dengue fever (DF) without diagnostic testing. In a prospective study of 140 patients with clinical features of DF, 3 (2.1%) had acute HIV infection (AHI). We recommend testing for AHI in dengue-like febrile illness. | Source Title: | Open Forum Infectious Diseases | URI: | https://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/206497 | ISSN: | 23288957 | DOI: | 10.1093/ofid/ofy171 |
