Introduction: Dengue fever is prevalent in tropical nations, especially India. Leucopenia and thrombocytopenia are distinctive features of acute dengue fever that revert to normal levels after the patient's recovery. Dengue fever is associated with numerous unusual clinical manifestations of different body systems. Additionally, the emergence of severe thrombocytosis following thrombocytopenia is extremely rare. Based on our extensive knowledge, only three cases similar to this have been documented in the literature.
Case Report: Here, we present a case of a 36-year-old healthy man who had acute dengue and subsequently developed severe reactive thrombocytosis. The patient was treated conservatively and discharged. Subsequently, he developed thrombocytosis. Aspirin was given for a short period to alleviate any potential repercussions.
Conclusion: Thrombocytosis, a rare consequence of dengue infection, is usually asymptomatic. Nevertheless, ongoing monitoring of dengue patients is required to avoid complications.

Vector-borne diseases pose a major worldwide health concern, impacting more than 1 billion people globally. Among various blood-feeding arthropods, mosquitoes stand out as the primary carriers of diseases significant in both medical and veterinary fields. Hence, comprehending their distinct role fulfilled by different mosquito types is crucial for efficiently addressing and enhancing control measures against mosquito-transmitted diseases.

Dengue flavivirus (DENV) is the virus that causes dengue, one of the most dangerous and common viral diseases in humans that are carried by mosquitoes and can lead to fatalities. Every year, there are over 400 million cases of dengue fever worldwide, and 22,000 fatalities. It has been documented in tropical and subtropical climates in over 100 nations.

Dengue is an increasing threat to individuals living in or visiting endemic countries. Effective vaccines have become available, but their use in travelers is typically only recommended to individuals with documented prior infection. We present a fatal case of severe dengue in an unvaccinated traveler without known prior dengue virus infection but longitudinal serologic and molecular evidence for secondary infection.

Dengue fever poses a significant public health burden in tropical regions, including Thailand, where periodic epidemics strain healthcare resources. Effective disease surveillance is essential for timely intervention and resource allocation. Various methods exist for spatiotemporal cluster detection, but their comparative performance remains unclear.

The current manuscript presents a mathematical model of dengue fever transmission with an asymptomatic compartment to capture infection dynamics in the presence of uncertainty. The model is fuzzified using triangular fuzzy numbers (TFNs) approach. The obtained fuzzy-fractional dengue model is then solved and analyzed through fuzzy extension of modified residual power series algorithm, which utilizes residual power series along with Laplace transform.
