Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The proposed study is expected to determine a. Incidence rate of acute febrile illness episode during 12 months of follow up b. Incidence rate of symptomatic laboratory confirmed Dengue infection episodes during 12 months of follow up c. Incidence of Sero positivity based on IgG, IgM & neutralizing antibodies at 12 months (Sero Negative for IgG, IgM or Neutralizing antibodies at baseline at enrolment).Timepoint: Objective Expected Timelines Establishment of Cohort 1 â?? 2 Months Base Line Sero-prevalence 1-2 Months Incidence of acute febrile illness 12 â?? 13 Months Sero Incidence of IgG, IgM & Neutralizing antibodies 13 Months Reporting & Submission of result 14 â?? 15 months

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The proposed study will determine 1. Incidence rate of symptomatic laboratory confirmed Chikungunya infection episodes during 12 months of follow up 2. Determine the etiology of AFI due to other common causes of AFI (based on rapid diagnostic or ELISA based laboratory diagnosis) a. Malaria b. Scrub typhus c. Leptospirosis d. Typhoid 3. Describe the proportion of symptomatic versus asymptomatic or sub clinical infections of dengue and Chikungunya based on data obtained from primary objectives. 4. Identify & describe the circulating serotypes of dengue & chikungunya in the general population over a period of one year. 5. To assess spatiotemporal trend of Dengue & Chikungunya infection over a period of 12 months. 6. Determine the durability of IgG, IgM & Neutralizing antibodies in symptomatic individuals tested n Positive for Dengue and Chikungunya infection. Timepoint: Establishment of Cohort 1 â?? 2 Months Base Line Sero-prevalence 1-2 Months Incidence of acute febrile illness including lab confirmed Malaria, Scrub typhus, Leptospirosis & Typhoid 12 â?? 13 Months Sero Incidence of IgG, IgM & Neutralizing antibodies 13 Months Identification of circulating serotype of Dengue & Chikungunya 13 Months Analysis of spatiotemporal trend of Dengue and Chikungunya 13 Months Durability of Antibodies 13 Months
