- W2897499516 abstract "Objective: Alkhumra virus (ALKV) was identified in 1994 as the agent of a hemorrhagic fever in Saudi Arabia. Genetic and phylogenetic analyses characterize it as a variant genotype of Kyasanur Forest disease virus (KFDV). Since then, several cases of Alkhumra hemorrhagic fever (ALKHF) with fatality rates as high as 25% have been documented in Saudi Arabia. The aim of the current article is to review and provide an insight into ALKHF in Saudi Arabia. Methods: Articles published between 1994 and 2014 on ALKV and ALKHF were studied by reviewing the Medline/PubMed databases - the online Google Scholar database and the ProMED database using the keywords Alkhumra virus, Alkhumra Hemorrhagic fever, Kyasanur Forest disease virus, Viral hemorrhagic fever, Zoonotic disease. Results: ALKV is a tick-borne flavivirus that causes hemorrhagic fever in humans. It is transmitted from animals to humans and has a seasonal pattern peaking during March to July. Subcutaneous and internal haemorrhages are common. The presence of neurological signs and altered liver function tests are associated with higher mortality rates. Conclusion: ALKV is a hyper virulent tick-borne flavivirus that causes hemorrhagic fever in humans with high fatality rates. Better understanding of the disease can be facilitated by the application of universally agreed upon surveillance protocols in order to assist in increasing awareness, early identification and better management of those affected. In view of the lack of such protocols, the one formulated by the Saudi Arabian Ministry of Health in 2010 appears to be an appropriate protocol for widespread use." @default.
