Symptoms include &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fever" title="Fever"&gt;fever&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Headache" title="Headache"&gt;headache&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myalgia" title="Myalgia"&gt;muscle&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthralgia" title="Arthralgia"&gt;joint pains&lt;/a&gt;, and a characteristic &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skin_rash" title="Skin rash"&gt;skin rash&lt;/a&gt; that is &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morbilliform" title="Morbilliform"&gt;similar to measles&lt;/a&gt;. In a small proportion of cases the disease develops into the life-threatening &lt;b&gt;dengue hemorrhagic fever&lt;/b&gt;, resulting in &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bleeding" title="Bleeding"&gt;bleeding&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrombocytopenia" title="Thrombocytopenia"&gt;low levels of blood platelets&lt;/a&gt; and blood plasma leakage, or into &lt;b&gt;dengue shock syndrome&lt;/b&gt;, where &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_%28circulatory%29" title="Shock (circulatory)"&gt;dangerously low blood pressure&lt;/a&gt; occurs.&lt;br /&gt;

Dengue is transmitted by several species of &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mosquito" title="Mosquito"&gt;mosquito&lt;/a&gt; within the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genus" title="Genus"&gt;genus&lt;/a&gt; &lt;i&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aedes" title="Aedes"&gt;Aedes&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;, principally &lt;i&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aedes_aegypti" title="Aedes aegypti"&gt;A. aegypti&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;. The virus has four different types; infection with one type usually gives lifelong &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immunity_%28medical%29" title="Immunity (medical)"&gt;immunity&lt;/a&gt;
 to that type, but only short-term immunity to the others. Subsequent 
infection with a different type increases the risk of severe 
complications. As there is no &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaccine" title="Vaccine"&gt;vaccine&lt;/a&gt;, prevention is sought by reducing the habitat and the number of mosquitoes and limiting exposure to bites.&lt;br /&gt;

Treatment of acute dengue is supportive, using either oral or intravenous &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rehydration" title="Rehydration"&gt;rehydration&lt;/a&gt; for mild or moderate disease, and &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intravenous_therapy" title="Intravenous therapy"&gt;intravenous fluids&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_transfusion" title="Blood transfusion"&gt;blood transfusion&lt;/a&gt; for more severe cases. The &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incidence_%28epidemiology%29" title="Incidence (epidemiology)"&gt;incidence&lt;/a&gt;
 of dengue fever has increased dramatically since the 1960s, with around
 50–100&amp;nbsp;million people infected yearly. Early descriptions of the 
condition date from 1779, and its viral cause and the transmission were 
elucidated in the early 20th century. Dengue has become a global problem
 since the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II"&gt;Second World War&lt;/a&gt; and is &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endemic_%28epidemiology%29" title="Endemic (epidemiology)"&gt;endemic&lt;/a&gt;
 in more than 110&amp;nbsp;countries. Apart from eliminating the mosquitoes, work
 is ongoing on a vaccine, as well as medication targeted directly at the
 virus.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
Typically, people infected with dengue virus are &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asymptomatic" title="Asymptomatic"&gt;asymptomatic&lt;/a&gt; (80%) or only have mild symptoms such as an uncomplicated fever.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-White10_0-0"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-White10-0"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;1&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-WHOp14_1-0"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-WHOp14-1"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;2&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Euro10_2-0"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Euro10-2"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;3&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; Others have more severe illness (5%), and in a small proportion it is life-threatening.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-White10_0-1"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-White10-0"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;1&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Euro10_2-1"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Euro10-2"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;3&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; The &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incubation_period" title="Incubation period"&gt;incubation period&lt;/a&gt; (time between exposure and onset of symptoms) ranges from 3–14 days, but most often it is 4–7 days.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Gubler379_3-0"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Gubler379-3"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;4&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;
 Therefore, travelers returning from endemic areas are unlikely to have 
dengue if fever or other symptoms start more than 14&amp;nbsp;days after arriving
 home.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Peads10_4-0"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Peads10-4"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;5&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; Children often experience symptoms similar to those of the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_cold" title="Common cold"&gt;common cold&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gastroenteritis" title="Gastroenteritis"&gt;gastroenteritis&lt;/a&gt; (vomiting and diarrhea),&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-India10_5-0"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-India10-5"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;6&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; and generally have less severe symptoms than adults,&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-NEJM_6-0"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-NEJM-6"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;7&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; but are more susceptible to the severe complications.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Peads10_4-1"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Peads10-4"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;5&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;
 &lt;span class="mw-headline" id="Clinical_course"&gt;Clinical course&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
The characteristic symptoms of dengue are sudden-onset fever, 
headache (typically located behind the eyes), muscle and joint pains, 
and a rash. The alternative name for dengue, "break-bone fever", comes 
from the associated muscle and joint pains.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-White10_0-2"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-White10-0"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;1&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Chen_7-0"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Chen-7"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;8&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; The course of infection is divided into three phases: febrile, critical, and recovery.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-WHOp25_8-0"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-WHOp25-8"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;9&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

The febrile phase involves high fever, often over &lt;span style="white-space: nowrap;"&gt;40 °C&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="white-space: nowrap;"&gt;(104&amp;nbsp;°F)&lt;/span&gt;, and is associated with generalized pain and a headache; this usually lasts two to seven days.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Chen_7-1"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Chen-7"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;8&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-WHOp25_8-1"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-WHOp25-8"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;9&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; At this stage, a rash occurs in 50–80% of those with symptoms.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Chen_7-2"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Chen-7"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;8&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Fitz2009_9-0"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Fitz2009-9"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;10&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; It occurs in the first or second day of symptoms as &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erythema" title="Erythema"&gt;flushed skin&lt;/a&gt;, or later in the course of illness (days 4–7), as a &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morbilliform" title="Morbilliform"&gt;measles-like&lt;/a&gt; rash.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Fitz2009_9-1"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Fitz2009-9"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;10&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-ER2010_10-0"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-ER2010-10"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;11&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; Some &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petechia" title="Petechia"&gt;petechiae&lt;/a&gt; (small red spots that do not disappear when the skin is pressed, which are caused by broken &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capillary" title="Capillary"&gt;capillaries&lt;/a&gt;) can appear at this point,&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-WHOp25_8-2"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-WHOp25-8"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;9&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; as may some mild bleeding from the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mucous_membrane" title="Mucous membrane"&gt;mucous membranes&lt;/a&gt; of the mouth and nose.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Peads10_4-2"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Peads10-4"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;5&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Chen_7-3"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Chen-7"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;8&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; The fever itself is classically &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fever#Types" title="Fever"&gt;biphasic&lt;/a&gt;
 in nature, breaking and then returning for one or two days, although 
there is wide variation in how often this pattern actually happens.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-ER2010_10-1"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-ER2010-10"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;11&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Gould_11-0"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Gould-11"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;12&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

In some people, the disease proceeds to a critical phase, which 
follows the resolution of the high fever and typically lasts one to two

The dengue virus &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genome" title="Genome"&gt;genome&lt;/a&gt; (genetic material) contains about 11,000 &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleotide_base" title="Nucleotide base"&gt;nucleotide bases&lt;/a&gt;, which &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_code" title="Genetic code"&gt;code&lt;/a&gt; for the three different types of protein molecules (C, prM and E) that form the &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virion" title="Virion"&gt;virus particle&lt;/a&gt;
 and seven other types of protein molecules (NS1, NS2a, NS2b, NS3, NS4a,
 NS4b, NS5) that are only found in infected host cells and are required 
for replication of the virus.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Life10_12-1"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Life10-12"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;13&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Guzman10_14-0"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Guzman10-14"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;15&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; There are four strains of the virus, which are called &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serovar" title="Serovar"&gt;serotypes&lt;/a&gt;, and these are referred to as DENV-1, DENV-2, DENV-3 and DENV-4.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-WHOp14_1-1"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-WHOp14-1"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;2&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; All four serotypes can cause the full spectrum of disease.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Life10_12-2"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Life10-12"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;13&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;
 Infection with one serotype is believed to produce lifelong immunity to
 that serotype but only short term protection against the others.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-WHOp14_1-2"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-WHOp14-1"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;2&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Chen_7-4"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Chen-7"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;8&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

The severe complications on secondary infection occurs particularly 
if someone previously exposed to serotype DENV-1 then contracts serotype
 DENV-2 or serotype DENV-3, or if someone previously exposed to type 
DENV-3 then acquires DENV-2.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Guzman10_14-1"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Guzman10-14"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;15&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

 A female mosquito that takes a blood meal from a person infected with 
dengue fever becomes itself infected with the virus in the cells lining 
its gut. About 8–10 days later, the virus spreads to other tissues 
including the mosquito's &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salivary_gland" title="Salivary gland"&gt;salivary glands&lt;/a&gt;
 and is subsequently released into its saliva. The virus seems to have 
no detrimental effect on the mosquito, which remains infected for life. &lt;i&gt;Aedes aegypti&lt;/i&gt;
 prefers to lay its eggs in artificial water containers, to live in

Dengue can also be transmitted via infected &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_products" title="Blood products"&gt;blood products&lt;/a&gt; and through &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organ_donation" title="Organ donation"&gt;organ donation&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-19"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-19"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;20&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-20"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-20"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;21&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; In countries such as &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singapore" title="Singapore"&gt;Singapore&lt;/a&gt;, where dengue is endemic, the risk is estimated to be between 1.6 and 6 per 10,000 &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_transfusions" title="Blood transfusions"&gt;transfusions&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-21"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-21"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;22&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertical_transmission" title="Vertical transmission"&gt;Vertical transmission&lt;/a&gt; (from mother to child) during pregnancy or at birth has been reported.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-pmid20130380_22-0"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-pmid20130380-22"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;23&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; Other person-to-person modes of transmission have also been reported, but are very unusual.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Chen_7-5"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Chen-7"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;8&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Severe disease is more common in babies and young children, and in 
contrast to many other infections it is more common in children that are
 relatively well nourished.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Peads10_4-10"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Peads10-4"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;5&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; Women are more at risk than men.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Guzman10_14-2"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Guzman10-14"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;15&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; Dengue can be life-threatening in people with &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronic_disease" title="Chronic disease"&gt;chronic diseases&lt;/a&gt; such as &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diabetes_mellitus" title="Diabetes mellitus"&gt;diabetes&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asthma" title="Asthma"&gt;asthma&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Guzman10_14-3"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Guzman10-14"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;15&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polymorphism_%28biology%29" title="Polymorphism (biology)"&gt;Polymorphisms&lt;/a&gt; (normal variations) in particular &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gene" title="Gene"&gt;genes&lt;/a&gt;
 have been linked with an increased risk of severe dengue complications.
 Examples include the genes coding for the proteins known as &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tumor_necrosis_factor-alpha" title="Tumor necrosis factor-alpha"&gt;TNFα&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mannan-binding_lectin" title="Mannan-binding lectin"&gt;mannan-binding lectin&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-White10_0-3"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-White10-0"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;1&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CTLA4" title="CTLA4"&gt;CTLA4&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transforming_growth_factor_beta" title="Transforming growth factor beta"&gt;TGFβ&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Life10_12-3"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Life10-12"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;13&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DC-SIGN" title="DC-SIGN"&gt;DC-SIGN&lt;/a&gt;, and particular &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allele" title="Allele"&gt;forms&lt;/a&gt; of &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_leukocyte_antigen" title="Human leukocyte antigen"&gt;human leukocyte antigen&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Guzman10_14-4"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Guzman10-14"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;15&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; A common genetic abnormality in Africans, known as &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glucose-6-phosphate_dehydrogenase_deficiency" title="Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency"&gt;glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency&lt;/a&gt;, appears to increase the risk.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Martina09_23-0"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Martina09-23"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;24&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; Polymorphisms in the genes for the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcitriol_receptor" title="Calcitriol receptor"&gt;vitamin D receptor&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fc_receptor#Fc-gamma_receptors" title="Fc receptor"&gt;FcγR&lt;/a&gt; seem to offer protection against severe disease in secondary dengue infection.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Guzman10_14-5"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Guzman10-14"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;15&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
 &lt;span class="mw-headline" id="Mechanism"&gt;Mechanism&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
When a mosquito carrying dengue virus bites a person, the virus 
enters the skin together with the mosquito's saliva. It binds to and 
enters &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_blood_cell" title="White blood cell"&gt;white blood cells&lt;/a&gt;,
 and reproduces inside the cells while they move throughout the body. 
The white blood cells respond by producing a number of signaling 
proteins, such as &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interferon" title="Interferon"&gt;interferon&lt;/a&gt;,
 which are responsible for many of the symptoms, such as the fever, the 
flu-like symptoms and the severe pains. In severe infection, the virus 
production inside the body is greatly increased, and many more organs 
(such as the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liver" title="Liver"&gt;liver&lt;/a&gt; and the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bone_marrow" title="Bone marrow"&gt;bone marrow&lt;/a&gt;)
 can be affected, and fluid from the bloodstream leaks through the wall 
of small blood vessels into body cavities. As a result, less blood 
circulates in the blood vessels, and the blood pressure becomes so low 
that it cannot supply sufficient blood to vital organs. Furthermore, 
dysfunction of the bone marrow leads to reduced numbers of platelets, 
which are necessary for effective blood clotting; this increases the 
risk of bleeding, the other major complication of dengue fever.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Martina09_23-1"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Martina09-23"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;24&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;
 &lt;span class="mw-headline" id="Viral_replication"&gt;Viral replication&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
Once inside the skin, dengue virus binds to &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Langerhans_cell" title="Langerhans cell"&gt;Langerhans cells&lt;/a&gt; (a population of &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dendritic_cell" title="Dendritic cell"&gt;dendritic cells&lt;/a&gt; in the skin that identifies pathogens).&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Martina09_23-2"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Martina09-23"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;24&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; The virus &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Receptor-mediated_endocytosis" title="Receptor-mediated endocytosis"&gt;enters the cells&lt;/a&gt; through binding between viral proteins and &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Membrane_protein" title="Membrane protein"&gt;membrane proteins&lt;/a&gt; on the Langerhans cell, specifically the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C-type_lectin" title="C-type lectin"&gt;C-type lectins&lt;/a&gt; called DC-SIGN, &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mannose_receptor" title="Mannose receptor"&gt;mannose receptor&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CLEC5A" title="CLEC5A"&gt;CLEC5A&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Life10_12-4"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Life10-12"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;13&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; DC-SIGN, a non-specific receptor for foreign material on dendritic cells, seems to be the main point of entry.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Guzman10_14-6"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Guzman10-14"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;15&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; The dendritic cell moves to the nearest &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lymph_node" title="Lymph node"&gt;lymph node&lt;/a&gt;. Meanwhile, the virus genome is replicated in membrane-bound vesicles on the cell's &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endoplasmic_reticulum" title="Endoplasmic reticulum"&gt;endoplasmic reticulum&lt;/a&gt;,
 where the cell's protein synthesis apparatus produces new viral 
proteins, and the viral RNA is copied. Immature virus particles are 
transported to the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golgi_apparatus" title="Golgi apparatus"&gt;Golgi apparatus&lt;/a&gt;, the part of the cell where some of the proteins receive necessary sugar chains (&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycoprotein" title="Glycoprotein"&gt;glycoproteins&lt;/a&gt;). The now mature new viruses bud on the surface of the infected cell and are released by &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exocytosis" title="Exocytosis"&gt;exocytosis&lt;/a&gt;. They are then able to enter other white blood cells, such as &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monocyte" title="Monocyte"&gt;monocytes&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macrophage" title="Macrophage"&gt;macrophages&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Life10_12-5"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Life10-12"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;13&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

The initial reaction of infected cells is to produce &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interferon" title="Interferon"&gt;interferon&lt;/a&gt;, a &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytokine" title="Cytokine"&gt;cytokine&lt;/a&gt; that raises a number of defenses against viral infection through the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Innate_immune_system" title="Innate immune system"&gt;innate immune system&lt;/a&gt; by augmenting the production of a large group of proteins mediated by the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JAK-STAT_signaling_pathway" title="JAK-STAT signaling pathway"&gt;JAK-STAT pathway&lt;/a&gt;. Some serotypes of dengue virus appear to have mechanisms to slow down this process. Interferon also activates the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptive_immune_system" title="Adaptive immune system"&gt;adaptive immune system&lt;/a&gt;, which leads to the generation of &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antibody" title="Antibody"&gt;antibodies&lt;/a&gt; against the virus as well as &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T_cell" title="T cell"&gt;T cells&lt;/a&gt; that directly attack any cell infected with the virus.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Life10_12-6"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Life10-12"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;13&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; Various antibodies are generated; some bind closely to the viral proteins and target them for &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phagocytosis" title="Phagocytosis"&gt;phagocytosis&lt;/a&gt; (ingestion by &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phagocyte" title="Phagocyte"&gt;specialized cells&lt;/a&gt;
 and destruction), but some bind the virus less well and appear instead 
to deliver the virus into a part of the phagocytes where it is not 
destroyed but is able to replicate further.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Life10_12-7"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Life10-12"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;13&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Further information: &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antibody-dependent_enhancement" title="Antibody-dependent enhancement"&gt;Antibody-dependent enhancement&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
It is not entirely clear why secondary infection with a different 
strain of dengue virus places people at risk of dengue hemorrhagic fever
 and dengue shock syndrome. The most widely accepted hypothesis is that 
of &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antibody-dependent_enhancement" title="Antibody-dependent enhancement"&gt;antibody-dependent enhancement&lt;/a&gt;
 (ADE). The exact mechanism behind ADE is unclear. It may be caused by 
poor binding of non-neutralizing antibodies and delivery into the wrong 
compartment of white blood cells that have ingested the virus for 
destruction.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Life10_12-8"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Life10-12"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;13&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Guzman10_14-7"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Guzman10-14"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;15&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; There is a suspicion that ADE is not the only mechanism underlying severe dengue-related complications,&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-White10_0-4"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-White10-0"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;1&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; and various lines of research have implied a role for &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T_cell" title="T cell"&gt;T cells&lt;/a&gt; and soluble factors such as &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytokine" title="Cytokine"&gt;cytokines&lt;/a&gt; and the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complement_system" title="Complement system"&gt;complement system&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Martina09_23-3"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Martina09-23"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;24&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Severe disease is marked by two problems: dysfunction of &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endothelium" title="Endothelium"&gt;endothelium&lt;/a&gt; (the cells that line blood vessels) and disordered &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coagulation" title="Coagulation"&gt;blood clotting&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-India10_5-4"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-India10-5"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;6&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;
 Endothelial dysfunction leads to the leakage of fluid from the blood 
vessels into the chest and abdominal cavities, while coagulation 
disorder is responsible for the bleeding complications. Higher viral 
load in the blood and involvement of other organs (such as the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bone_marrow" title="Bone marrow"&gt;bone marrow&lt;/a&gt; and the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liver" title="Liver"&gt;liver&lt;/a&gt;)
 are associated with more severe disease. Cells in the affected organs 
die, leading to the release of cytokines and activation of both 
coagulation and &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibrinolysis" title="Fibrinolysis"&gt;fibrinolysis&lt;/a&gt;
 (the opposing systems of blood clotting and clot degradation). These 
alterations together lead to both endothelial dysfunction and 
coagulation disorder.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Martina09_23-4"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Martina09-23"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;24&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

The diagnosis of dengue is typically made clinically, on the basis of reported symptoms and &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_examination" title="Physical examination"&gt;physical examination&lt;/a&gt;; this applies especially in endemic areas.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-White10_0-5"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-White10-0"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;1&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; However, early disease can be difficult to differentiate from other &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viral_infections" title="Viral infections"&gt;viral infections&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Peads10_4-11"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Peads10-4"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;5&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; A probable diagnosis is based on the findings of fever plus two of the following: &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nausea" title="Nausea"&gt;nausea&lt;/a&gt; and vomiting, rash, generalized pains, &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leukopenia" title="Leukopenia"&gt;low white blood cell count&lt;/a&gt;, positive &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tourniquet_test" title="Tourniquet test"&gt;tourniquet test&lt;/a&gt;, or any warning sign (see table) in someone who lives in an &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endemic_%28epidemiology%29" title="Endemic (epidemiology)"&gt;endemic&lt;/a&gt; area.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-WHOp10_24-1"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-WHOp10-24"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;25&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; Warning signs typically occur before the onset of severe dengue.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-WHOp25_8-10"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-WHOp25-8"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;9&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;
 The tourniquet test, which is particularly useful in settings where no 
laboratory investigations are readily available, involves the 
application of a &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sphygmomanometer" title="Sphygmomanometer"&gt;blood pressure cuff&lt;/a&gt; for five minutes, followed by the counting of any &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petechial" title="Petechial"&gt;petechial&lt;/a&gt; hemorrhages; a higher number makes a diagnosis of dengue more likely.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-WHOp25_8-11"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-WHOp25-8"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;9&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

The diagnosis should be considered in anyone who develops a fever within two week of being in the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tropics" title="Tropics"&gt;tropics&lt;/a&gt; or &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subtropics" title="Subtropics"&gt;subtropics&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-NEJM2012_13-2"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-NEJM2012-13"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;14&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; It can be difficult to distinguish dengue fever and &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chikungunya" title="Chikungunya"&gt;chikungunya&lt;/a&gt;, a similar viral infection that shares many symptoms and occurs in similar parts of the world to dengue.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Chen_7-6"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Chen-7"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;8&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; Often, investigations are performed to exclude other conditions that cause similar symptoms, such as &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malaria" title="Malaria"&gt;malaria&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leptospirosis" title="Leptospirosis"&gt;leptospirosis&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Typhoid_fever" title="Typhoid fever"&gt;typhoid fever&lt;/a&gt;, and &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meningococcal_disease" title="Meningococcal disease"&gt;meningococcal disease&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Peads10_4-12"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Peads10-4"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;5&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

The earliest change detectable on laboratory investigations is a low white blood cell count, which may then be followed by &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrombocytopenia" title="Thrombocytopenia"&gt;low platelets&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metabolic_acidosis" title="Metabolic acidosis"&gt;metabolic acidosis&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Peads10_4-13"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Peads10-4"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;5&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; In severe disease, plasma leakage results in &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemoconcentration" title="Hemoconcentration"&gt;hemoconcentration&lt;/a&gt; (as indicated by a rising &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hematocrit" title="Hematocrit"&gt;hematocrit&lt;/a&gt;) and &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypoalbuminemia" title="Hypoalbuminemia"&gt;hypoalbuminemia&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Peads10_4-14"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Peads10-4"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;5&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pleural_effusion" title="Pleural effusion"&gt;Pleural effusions&lt;/a&gt; or &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ascites" title="Ascites"&gt;ascites&lt;/a&gt; can be detected by physical examination when large,&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Peads10_4-15"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Peads10-4"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;5&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; but the demonstration of fluid on &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_ultrasonography" title="Medical ultrasonography"&gt;ultrasound&lt;/a&gt; may assist in the early identification of dengue shock syndrome.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-White10_0-6"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-White10-0"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;1&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Peads10_4-16"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Peads10-4"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;5&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; The use of ultrasound is limited by lack of availability in many settings.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-White10_0-7"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-White10-0"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;1&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;
 &lt;span class="mw-headline" id="Classification"&gt;Classification&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
The &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Health_Organization" title="World Health Organization"&gt;World Health Organization&lt;/a&gt;'s 2009 classification divides dengue fever into two groups: uncomplicated and severe.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-White10_0-8"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-White10-0"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;1&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-WHOp10_24-2"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-WHOp10-24"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;25&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;
 This replaces the 1997 WHO classification, which needed to be 
simplified as it had been found to be too restrictive, though the older 
classification is still widely used.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-WHOp10_24-3"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-WHOp10-24"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;25&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; The 1997 classification divided dengue into undifferentiated fever, dengue fever, and dengue hemorrhagic fever.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Peads10_4-17"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Peads10-4"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;5&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-WHO97_25-0"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-WHO97-25"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;26&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;
 Dengue hemorrhagic fever was subdivided further into grades I–IV. Grade
 I is the presence only of easy bruising or a positive tourniquet test 
in someone with fever, grade II is the presence of spontaneous bleeding 
into the skin and elsewhere, grade III is the clinical evidence of &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_%28circulatory%29" title="Shock (circulatory)"&gt;shock&lt;/a&gt;, and grade IV is shock so severe that &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_pressure" title="Blood pressure"&gt;blood pressure&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse" title="Pulse"&gt;pulse&lt;/a&gt; cannot be detected.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-WHO97_25-1"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-WHO97-25"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;26&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; Grades III and IV are referred to as "dengue shock syndrome".&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-WHOp10_24-4"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-WHOp10-24"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;25&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-WHO97_25-2"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-WHO97-25"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;26&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;
 &lt;span class="mw-headline" id="Laboratory_tests"&gt;Laboratory tests&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
Dengue fever may be diagnosed by microbiological laboratory testing.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-WHOp10_24-5"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-WHOp10-24"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;25&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; This can be done by virus isolation in &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_culture" title="Cell culture"&gt;cell cultures&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleic_acid_test" title="Nucleic acid test"&gt;nucleic acid detection&lt;/a&gt; by &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polymerase_chain_reaction" title="Polymerase chain reaction"&gt;PCR&lt;/a&gt;, viral &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antigen" title="Antigen"&gt;antigen&lt;/a&gt; detection or specific &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antibodies" title="Antibodies"&gt;antibodies&lt;/a&gt; (serology).&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Guzman10_14-8"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Guzman10-14"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;15&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-WHOp90_26-0"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-WHOp90-26"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;27&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;
 Virus isolation and nucleic acid detection are more accurate than 
antigen detection, but these tests are not widely available due to their
 greater cost.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-WHOp90_26-1"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-WHOp90-26"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;27&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; All tests may be negative in the early stages of the disease.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Peads10_4-18"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Peads10-4"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;5&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Guzman10_14-9"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Guzman10-14"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;15&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; PCR and viral antigen detection are more accurate in the first seven days.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-NEJM2012_13-3"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-NEJM2012-13"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;14&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;
 A PCR test that can run on equipment also used to diagnose influenza 
was introduced in 2012 and will make PCR testing more accessible.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-27"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-27"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;28&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

These laboratory tests are only of diagnostic value during the acute 
phase of the illness with the exception of serology. Tests for dengue 
virus-specific antibodies, types &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IgG" title="IgG"&gt;IgG&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IgM" title="IgM"&gt;IgM&lt;/a&gt;,
 can be useful in confirming a diagnosis in the later stages of the 
infection. Both IgG and IgM are produced after 5–7 days. The highest 
levels (&lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titre" title="Titre"&gt;titres&lt;/a&gt;)
 of IgM are detected following a primary infection, but IgM is also 
produced in secondary and tertiary infections. The IgM becomes 
undetectable 30–90 days after a primary infection, but earlier following
 re-infections. IgG, by contrast, remains detectable for over 60 years 
and, in the absence of symptoms, is a useful indicator of past 
infection. After a primary infection the IgG reaches peak levels in the 
blood after 14–21 days. In subsequent re-infections, levels peak earlier
 and the titres are usually higher. Both IgG and IgM provide protective 
immunity to the infecting serotype of the virus. In the laboratory test 
the IgG and the IgM antibodies can cross-react with other flaviviruses, 
such as &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow_fever" title="Yellow fever"&gt;yellow fever virus&lt;/a&gt;, which can make the interpretation of the serology difficult.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Chen_7-7"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Chen-7"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;8&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Guzman10_14-10"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Guzman10-14"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;15&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Gubler10_28-0"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Gubler10-28"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;29&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;
 The detection of IgG alone is not considered diagnostic unless blood 
samples are collected 14 days apart and a greater than fourfold increase
 in levels of specific IgG is detected. In a person with symptoms, the 
detection of IgM is considered diagnostic.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Gubler10_28-1"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue#cite_note-Gubler10-28"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;29&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Dental plaque&lt;/b&gt; is a &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biofilm" title="Biofilm"&gt;biofilm&lt;/a&gt;, usually a pale yellow, that develops naturally on the &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teeth" title="Teeth"&gt;teeth&lt;/a&gt;. Like any &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biofilm" title="Biofilm"&gt;biofilm&lt;/a&gt;, dental plaque is formed by colonizing bacteria trying to attach themselves to a smooth surface (of a tooth).&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-biofilm_0-0"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_plaque#cite_note-biofilm-0"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;1&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; It has been speculated that plaque forms part of the defense systems of the host by helping to prevent &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colonization_%28biology%29" title="Colonization (biology)"&gt;colonization&lt;/a&gt; by &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microorganism" title="Microorganism"&gt;microorganisms&lt;/a&gt; which may be &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pathogenic" title="Pathogenic"&gt;pathogenic&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-leeds_1-0"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_plaque#cite_note-leeds-1"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;2&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

The &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oral_cavity" title="Oral cavity"&gt;oral cavity&lt;/a&gt; contains the only known anatomical aspect of the human body that does not have a regulated system of shedding surfaces: the &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teeth" title="Teeth"&gt;teeth&lt;/a&gt;. This allows a numerous amount of microorganisms to adhere to the surface of &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teeth" title="Teeth"&gt;teeth&lt;/a&gt; for long periods of time.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-marsh_2003_2-0"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_plaque#cite_note-marsh_2003-2"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;3&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; These multiple species of &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacteria" title="Bacteria"&gt;bacteria&lt;/a&gt; become dental &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biofilm" title="Biofilm"&gt;biofilm&lt;/a&gt;. Dental &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biofilm" title="Biofilm"&gt;biofilm&lt;/a&gt;,
 more commonly referred to as dental plaque, is composed of about a 
thousand species of bacteria that take part in the complex ecosystems of
 the mouth. The natural, non-frequent regulation of tooth shedding plays
 a large role in making dental &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biofilm" title="Biofilm"&gt;biofilm&lt;/a&gt; the most diverse &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biofilm" title="Biofilm"&gt;biofilm&lt;/a&gt; in the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_body" title="Human body"&gt;human body&lt;/a&gt; despite the relatively small size of the &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teeth" title="Teeth"&gt;teeth&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

The human &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oral_cavity" title="Oral cavity"&gt;oral cavity&lt;/a&gt;
 is also called the human oral microbiome. This is because the human 
oral cavity can contain several environments at a given moment that 
could vary from tooth to tooth.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-kolenbrander_2006_3-0"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_plaque#cite_note-kolenbrander_2006-3"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;4&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; Additionally it has been estimated that the number of &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacteria" title="Bacteria"&gt;bacteria&lt;/a&gt; that reside in the mouth is about 25,000 &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Species" title="Species"&gt;species&lt;/a&gt; of bacteria.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-4"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_plaque#cite_note-4"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;5&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; This is in contrast to the previously estimated 700+&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Species" title="Species"&gt;species&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-kolenbrander_2006_3-1"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_plaque#cite_note-kolenbrander_2006-3"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;4&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;
 Studies have found that out of the 25,000 species that exist in the 
oral cavity, about 1000 species can exist as part of the dental biofilm 
ecosystem.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-ten_cate_2006_5-0"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_plaque#cite_note-ten_cate_2006-5"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;6&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; This is also in contrast to the previous estimate of more than 500 species as part of the dental biofilm.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-6"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_plaque#cite_note-6"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;7&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; These 1,000 species have the ability to change their environment through a series of biotic relationships.&lt;br /&gt;

At first, the biofilm is soft enough to come off by using finger 
nail. However, it starts to harden within 48 hours, and in about 10 days
 the plaque becomes &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calculus_%28dental%29" title="Calculus (dental)"&gt;dental calculus (tartar)&lt;/a&gt; hard and difficult to remove.&lt;sup class="Template-Fact" style="white-space: nowrap;"&gt;[&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"&gt;&lt;span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources from November 2011"&gt;citation needed&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;]&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Dental plaque can give rise to &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_caries" title="Dental caries"&gt;dental caries&lt;/a&gt; (tooth decay)—the localised destruction of the tissues of the tooth by acid produced from the bacterial degradation of &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermentation_%28biochemistry%29" title="Fermentation (biochemistry)"&gt;fermentable&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sugar" title="Sugar"&gt;sugars&lt;/a&gt;&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-leeds_1-1"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_plaque#cite_note-leeds-1"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;2&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;—and &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodontal" title="Periodontal"&gt;periodontal&lt;/a&gt; problems such as &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gingivitis" title="Gingivitis"&gt;gingivitis&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronic_periodontitis" title="Chronic periodontitis"&gt;chronic periodontitis&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
The mechanisms of plaque formation include:&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-leeds_1-2"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_plaque#cite_note-leeds-1"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;2&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;li&gt;Irreversible adhesion due to intermolecular interactions between cell surfaces and the pellicle.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Secondary colonisers attach to primary colonisers by intermolecular interaction.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The cells divide and generate a biofilm.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

 &lt;span class="mw-headline" id="Microorganisms"&gt;Microorganisms&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
As previously mentioned there are about 1,000 out of the 25,000 &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Species" title="Species"&gt;species&lt;/a&gt; of &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacteria" title="Bacteria"&gt;bacteria&lt;/a&gt; that are involved with the formation of dental &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biofilm" title="Biofilm"&gt;biofilm&lt;/a&gt;. Due to this fairly large number there is fierce competition among the bacteria present on dental &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biofilm" title="Biofilm"&gt;biofilm&lt;/a&gt; for nutrients present in the mouth. Only about fifty percent of the 1,000 &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Species" title="Species"&gt;species&lt;/a&gt; have been cultured for study.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-ten_cate_2006_5-1"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_plaque#cite_note-ten_cate_2006-5"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;6&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; Scientists at &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Forsyth_Institute" title="The Forsyth Institute"&gt;the Forsyth Institute&lt;/a&gt; in Cambridge, Massachusetts have begun the &lt;a class="external text" href="http://www.homd.org/" rel="nofollow"&gt;Human Oral Microbiome Project&lt;/a&gt; to identify &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacteria" title="Bacteria"&gt;bacteria&lt;/a&gt; and study the complex ecosystems of the mouth. On &lt;a class="external text" href="http://www.homd.org/" rel="nofollow"&gt;their website&lt;/a&gt;, one can find information about the identified organisms as well as the method being utilized to identify the organisms.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
 &lt;span class="mw-headline" id="Environment"&gt;Environment&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
The ecological factors provided by the environment of the oral cavity
 are directly proportional to the species richness and species 
biodiversity of the microorganisms that reside on the teeth.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-marsh_2003_2-1"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_plaque#cite_note-marsh_2003-2"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;3&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; The main ecological factors are pH, saliva, temperature and redox reactions.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-marsh_2003_2-2"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_plaque#cite_note-marsh_2003-2"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;3&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-marsh_2011_7-0"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_plaque#cite_note-marsh_2011-7"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;8&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; The majority of microbial organisms prefer neutral pH levels (pH 7). Saliva acts as a &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buffer_solution" title="Buffer solution"&gt;buffer&lt;/a&gt;, maintaining the pH in the mouth between 6.75 and 7.25.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-marsh_2003_2-3"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_plaque#cite_note-marsh_2003-2"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;3&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; In addition to acting as a buffer, saliva is also a main source of nutrients for the thousands of &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacteria" title="Bacteria"&gt;bacteria&lt;/a&gt; (note: &lt;a class="new" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gingival_crevicular_fluid&amp;amp;action=edit&amp;amp;redlink=1" title="Gingival crevicular fluid (page does not exist)"&gt;gingival crevicular fluid&lt;/a&gt;
 is also a nutrient source but a smaller one ). A two degree (ºC) change
 has been shown to drastically shift the dominant species in the plaque.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-marsh_2011_7-1"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_plaque#cite_note-marsh_2011-7"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;8&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; The normal temperature of the mouth ranges from 35ºC to 36ºC (Marsh). &lt;a class="new" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Redox_reactions&amp;amp;action=edit&amp;amp;redlink=1" title="Redox reactions (page does not exist)"&gt;Redox reactions&lt;/a&gt; are carried out by &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerobic_bacteria" title="Aerobic bacteria"&gt;aerobic bacteria&lt;/a&gt;. This keeps the oxygen levels in the mouth at a semi-stable homeostatic condition. This allows other &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacteria" title="Bacteria"&gt;bacteria&lt;/a&gt; to survive, which will be discussed in the next section.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-marsh_2011_7-2"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_plaque#cite_note-marsh_2011-7"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;8&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
 &lt;span class="mw-headline" id="Biotic_relationships"&gt;Biotic relationships&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
The microorganisms in the &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oral_cavity" title="Oral cavity"&gt;oral cavity&lt;/a&gt; live with one another in commensal or mutualistic &lt;a class="new" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Symbiotic_relationships&amp;amp;action=edit&amp;amp;redlink=1" title="Symbiotic relationships (page does not exist)"&gt;symbiotic relationships&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-marsh_2003_2-4"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_plaque#cite_note-marsh_2003-2"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;3&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; Typically, &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anaerobic_bacteria" title="Anaerobic bacteria"&gt;anaerobic bacteria&lt;/a&gt;
 would succumb to high levels of oxygen, but with the redox reactions 
discussed in the previous section they are able to survive. This 
commensal relationship allows a mixture of aerobic and anaerobic 
bacteria to live in the same area. The formation begins by the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adsorption" title="Adsorption"&gt;adsorption&lt;/a&gt; of early colonizers onto an &lt;a class="new" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Acquired_pellicle&amp;amp;action=edit&amp;amp;redlink=1" title="Acquired pellicle (page does not exist)"&gt;acquired pellicle&lt;/a&gt; through chemical processes.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-kreth_2009_8-0"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_plaque#cite_note-kreth_2009-8"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;9&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; An &lt;a class="new" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Acquired_pellicle&amp;amp;action=edit&amp;amp;redlink=1" title="Acquired pellicle (page does not exist)"&gt;acquired pellicle&lt;/a&gt; is a layer of saliva that is composed of mainly &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycoproteins" title="Glycoproteins"&gt;glycoproteins&lt;/a&gt; and forms shortly after cleaning of the teeth or exposure of new teeth.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-kreth_2009_8-1"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_plaque#cite_note-kreth_2009-8"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;9&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;
 These bound early colonizers manipulate the environment for the 
immediate benefit of other bacteria. Once the environment has been 
manipulated other bacterial colonizers are able to co-adhere to the 
early colonizers. This is done repeatedly resulting in layers of &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacteria" title="Bacteria"&gt;bacteria&lt;/a&gt;.
 Once new bacterial cells co-adhere to one another they gain the ability
 to communicate to one another. They are able to communicate to one 
another through a biochemical process called quorum –sensing.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-ten_cate_2006_5-2"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_plaque#cite_note-ten_cate_2006-5"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;6&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; Quorum –sensing virtually allows all the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacteria" title="Bacteria"&gt;bacteria&lt;/a&gt;
 to benefit from one another. This ability can allow a bacterium to feel
 the presence of other bacteria around it. Due to this communication, 
bacteria have the ability to change their &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genotype" title="Genotype"&gt;genotype&lt;/a&gt; (and thus their &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenotype" title="Phenotype"&gt;phenotype&lt;/a&gt;) as a result of population concentration and/or environmental changes to remain as competent competitors.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-9"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_plaque#cite_note-9"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;10&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; These relationships tend to exhibit homeostasis until there is some type of disruption in the ecosystem.&lt;br /&gt;

The most common reasons for ecosystem disruption are the ecological 
factors that were discussed in the environment section. The bacteria 
that exhibits the most fit &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenotypic_plasticity" title="Phenotypic plasticity"&gt;plasticity&lt;/a&gt; for the change in environment dominates the given environment. Often, this could lead to opportunistic &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pathogens" title="Pathogens"&gt;pathogens&lt;/a&gt; that lead to &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_caries" title="Dental caries"&gt;dental caries&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodontal_disease" title="Periodontal disease"&gt;periodontal disease&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pathogens" title="Pathogens"&gt;Pathogens&lt;/a&gt; that have the potential to cause &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_caries" title="Dental caries"&gt;dental caries&lt;/a&gt; flourish in acidic environments. &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pathogenic_bacteria" title="Pathogenic bacteria"&gt;Pathogenic bacteria&lt;/a&gt; that have the potential to cause &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodontal_disease" title="Periodontal disease"&gt;periodontal disease&lt;/a&gt; flourish in a slightly alkaline environment.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-10"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_plaque#cite_note-10"&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;11&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
 &lt;span class="mw-headline" id="Components_of_plaque"&gt;Components of plaque&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
Plaque consists of microorganisms and extracellular matrix.&lt;br /&gt;

The &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microorganism" title="Microorganism"&gt;microorganisms&lt;/a&gt; that form the biofilm are mainly &lt;i&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streptococcus_mutans" title="Streptococcus mutans"&gt;Streptococcus mutans&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anaerobic_organism" title="Anaerobic organism"&gt;anaerobes&lt;/a&gt;, with the composition varying by location in the mouth. Examples of such anaerobes include &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fusobacterium" title="Fusobacterium"&gt;fusobacterium&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actinobacteria" title="Actinobacteria"&gt;actinobacteria&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

The extracellular matrix contains proteins, long chain polysaccharides and lipids.&lt;br /&gt;

The microorganisms present in dental plaque are all naturally present
 in the oral cavity, and are normally harmless. However, failure to 
remove plaque by regular &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tooth_brushing" title="Tooth brushing"&gt;tooth brushing&lt;/a&gt; means that they are allowed to build up in a thick layer. Those microorganisms nearest the tooth surface &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermentation_%28biochemistry%29" title="Fermentation (biochemistry)"&gt;ferment&lt;/a&gt; dietary sucrose; it is in this state that they start to produce acids.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Acids released from dental plaque lead to &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remineralisation_of_teeth" title="Remineralisation of teeth"&gt;demineralization&lt;/a&gt; of the adjacent tooth surface, and consequently to &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_caries" title="Dental caries"&gt;dental caries&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saliva" title="Saliva"&gt;Saliva&lt;/a&gt; is also unable to penetrate the build-up of plaque and thus cannot act to neutralize the acid produced by the bacteria and &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remineralisation_of_teeth" title="Remineralisation of teeth"&gt;remineralize the tooth&lt;/a&gt; surface.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;They also cause irritation of the gums around the teeth that could lead to &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gingivitis" title="Gingivitis"&gt;gingivitis&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodontal_disease" title="Periodontal disease"&gt;periodontal disease&lt;/a&gt; and tooth loss.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Plaque build up can also become mineralized and form &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calculus_%28dental%29" title="Calculus (dental)"&gt;calculus&lt;/a&gt; (tartar).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
