Abstract

Background: An extremely endemic tropical infectious disease that is rapidly spreading over the globe is dengue fever. Chronic inflammation has been connected to diabetes mellitus. The purpose of the current study was to examine the severity of dengue infection in populations with and without diabetes.

Methods: 48 patients with dengue infection—24 with diabetes and 24 without—were the subjects of a prospective observational research. The research entailed gathering information on dengue patients, including biochemical tests, medical histories, and demographics.

Results: Dengue-infected individuals with diabetes showed greater CRP{interquartile range(21.5-43),median of 35}vs non diabetic {interquartile range(4-34.5),median of 5}

Conclusion: In conclusion the results indicate greater levels of CRP in diabetics than non diabetics hence increase in morbidity and mortality
