- W4281893676 abstract "Abstract We describe the results of a prospective observational study of the clinical natural history of human monkeypox virus (MPXV) infections at the remote General Reference Hospital of Kole (Kole hospital), the rainforest of the Congo River basin of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) from March 2007 until August 2011. The research was conducted jointly by the Institute National de Recherche Biomedical (INRB) and the US Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases (USAMRIID). The Kole hospital was one of the two previous WHO Monkeypox (MPX) study sites (1981-1986). The hospital is staffed by a Spanish Order of Catholic Nuns from La Congregation Des Seours Missionnaires Du Christ Jesus including two Spanish physicians, who were members of the Order as well, were part of the WHO study on human monkeypox. Of 244 patients admitted with a clinical diagnosis of MPXV infection, 216 were positive in both the Pan-Orthopox and MPXV specific PCR. The cardinal observations of these 216 patients are summarized in this report. There were three deaths (3/216) among these hospitalized patients; fetal death occurred in 4 of 5 (80%) patients who were pregnant at admission. The most common complaints were rash (96.8%), malaise (85.2%), sore throat (78.2%), and lymphadenopathy/adenopathy (57.4%). The most common physical exam findings were MPX rash (99.5%) and lymphadenopathy (98.6%). Age group of less than 5 years had the highest lesion count. Primary household cases tended to have higher lesion counts than secondary or later same household cases. Of the 216 patients, 200 were tested for IgM & IgG antibodies (Abs) to Orthopoxviruses. All 200 patients had anti-orthopoxvirus IgG Abs; whereas 189/200 were positive for IgM. Patients with hypoalbuminemia had a high risk of severe disease. Patients with fatal disease had significantly higher maximum geometric mean values than survivors for the following variables, respectively: viral DNA in blood (DNAemia, p=0.0072); maximum lesion count (p=0.0025); day of admission mean AST and ALT (p=0.0002 and p = 0.0224, respectively, adjusted p-values). Author Summary This is a prospective observational study of Human monkeypox disease, an emerging infectious disease in parts of the continent of Africa. There are certain differential characteristics when compared to other pox diseases. This paper describes the presenting symptoms and signs of human monkeypox disease, laboratory findings and makes recommendation for the medical treatment of patients with monkeypox disease." @default.
