Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on the clinical challenges of diagnosing Zika virus infections, especially during overlapping epidemics with Dengue, due to similarities in symptoms.
- Conducted at "Joaquín Albarrán" Hospital in Cuba from June to October 2017, the study involved 1541 patients with suspected Zika, confirming infection in 279 through PCR testing.
- Key findings revealed common symptoms like rash and arthralgia, with Zika patients showing more arthralgia, asthenia, and diarrhea; however, the symptoms alone were insufficient for clear clinical diagnosis.
