Brief Summary:
There are hundred of arbovirus which have been shown to cause disease in humans. Their most common clinical symptoms are algo-eruptive (dengue, chikungunya, zika), hemorrhagic fever (dengue, yellow fever, Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever), neurological (West Nile, Zika, dengue, Japanese encephalitis) or arthritic afflictions (Chikungunya, O'nyong nyong). Dengue is a mosquito-born viral disease caused by 4 different serotypes of virus. Dengue fever (DF) is defined by the sudden onset of fever with non-specific constitutional symptoms, recovery occurring spontaneously in 3 to 7 days. The infection can sometimes progress to dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) characterized by a transient increase in vascular permeability provoking a plasma leakage syndrome. DHF can be complicated by shock and internal hemorrhage. Other rarer complications include encephalitis, hepatitis, rhabdomyolysis and myocarditis. There is currently no way of predicting the outcome of DF or DHF and the WHO classification lacks sufficient sensitivity and specificity to recognize and guide the management of severe forms of dengue. The pathophysiology of these forms is also poorly known. Since 2000s, the French West Indies and Guiana have become hyperendemic for dengue with simultaneous circulation of the 4 serotypes, regular large outbreaks and severe dengue including fatalities. Chikungunya is a re-emerging virus causing massive epidemics in Africa, in the Indian Ocean and Southeast Asia. The first autochthonous cases were described in French Antilles in Nov 2013. The disease typically consists of an acute illness like dengue fever with abrupt onset of a high-grade fever followed by constitutionals symptoms, poly-arthritis and skin involvement. Usually, the illness resolves in 4 to 6 weeks. However, severe clinical forms in early stage may appear and chronic clinical forms as incapacitating arthralgia which affect 40 to 60% of patients. In France, others arboviruses may cause severe emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases like Zika or West Nile. In non-immunized population these emerging diseases may cause outbreaks with specific severe clinical complications. The French interministerial mission on emerging infectious diseases coordinated by Professor Antoine Flahault, recommended such studies: large prospective multicenter cohort studies to characterize severe forms of arbovirus infections to seek predictive factors and to investigate the pathophysiology of the diseases.

Detailed Description:

Principal objective To identify demographic, clinical, biological, virologic, immunologic and genetic factors associated with or predictive of severe complications of arbovirus infections (shock, internal bleeding, organ failure, death) in a cohort of children and adults with confirmed arbovirus infections, in France.

Secondary objective

To identify demographic, clinical, biological, virologic, immunologic and genetic factors predictive of altered quality of life after confirmed an acute arbovirus infection. Onset of specific complications:

  • Hemorrhagic fever (dengue: WHO criteria)
  • Neurological disorders (West Nile virus infection, Zika virus infection, Japanese encephalitis…)
  • Chronic chikungunya (persistent Chronic chikungunya (persistent musculoskeletal symptoms for more than three months after symptoms onset)

Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Groups and Cohorts Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Occurrence, during follow-up (for 12 weeks following symptom onset), of shock, internal bleeding, failure of one or several organs or systems (brain, heart, lung, liver, kidney, clotting system), or death. [ Time Frame: 12 weeks ]
    The primary endpoint is a composite endpoint defined as the occurrence, within 12 weeks of the onset of arbovirosis, of at least 1 of the following events: death or shock or internal bleeding, or failure to one or more organs or systems (brain, heart, lung, liver, kidney, hemostasis). Deaths not attributable directly or indirectly to the arbovirosis in question will not be taken into account.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Specific complications: Onset of hemorrhagic fever (dengue) Onset of encephalitis or neurological disorders (West Nile virus, Japanese encephalitis, Zika virus) Onset of chronic form (Chikungunya) [ Time Frame: 12 weeks ]

    The analysis will focus only on patients with biologically confirmed arbovirosis by one of the following exams:

    • RT-PCR plasma (arbovirus), or urine (Zika virus),
    • Research of the NS1 positive antigen (dengue),
    • Significant appearance or increase of the G immunoglobulin directed against the arbovirus in question between an early serum (during the first week following the onset of symptoms) and another taken at least 10 days later


Biospecimen Retention:   Samples With DNA
