A consensus or society position rather than new primary data.
This is a narrative review synthesizing current knowledge on dengue virus epidemiology, immunopathogenesis, diagnostics, and prevention strategies, emphasizing the role of Aedes vectors and climate factors in disease dynamics. The review identifies diagnostic and preventive advances but does not present original data or comparative effectiveness evidence to support clinical practice change.
Narrative review. Global dengue-endemic populations; review addresses transmission dynamics and disease patterns worldwide..
Transmission is strongly influenced by temperature, humidity, rainfall, and extreme climate events. Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus are the primary vectors in complex transmission cycles. Severe dengue mechanisms include antibody-dependent enhancement and dysregulated inflammatory responses.
Safety was not reported in the material analysed. Check the source before drawing any conclusion about harm.
This review provides clinicians and public health professionals with an overview of current understanding of dengue epidemiology and control strategies but does not present quantitative evidence to guide specific clinical or policy decisions. Recommendations for integrating epidemiological, molecular, and climatic data into early warning systems reflect emerging consensus but lack supporting trial or modelling data.

Graded across the dimensions that decide whether you should act, each from what the source actually supports. There is no single score, and where a dimension was not assessed it says so.
What is missing. This record has no reported figures. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
Dengue virus (DENV) remains a major global public health challenge, driven by the expanding distribution of Aedes vectors, rapid urbanization, and increasing climate variability. This review aimed to synthesize current evidence on dengue transmission dynamics, immunopathogenesis, molecular epidemiology, diagnostic and therapeutic advances, vaccine development, and the influence of climatic factors on disease patterns. A comprehensive search of major electronic databases was conducted to identify relevant literature, followed by a qualitative synthesis of the evidence. The evidence highlights complex transmission cycles involving Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus, with transmission strongly influenced by temperature, humidity, rainfall, and extreme climate events. Advances in immunopathogenesis research have improved understanding of mechanisms associated with severe disease, including antibody-dependent enhancement and dysregulated inflammatory responses. Diagnostic innovations, such as reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), NS1 antigen detection, and point-of-care technologies, have enhanced case identification, while prevention strategies increasingly incorporate integrated vector management, digital surveillance systems, and emerging vaccines. Integrating epidemiological, molecular, and climatic information may strengthen early warning systems, improve outbreak prediction, and support more effective dengue prevention and control strategies.
