ABSTRACT
The gradual relaxation of COVID-19 restrictions in China has increased the risk of imported dengue fever cases and may further prompt the outbreak. Systematic assessment of disease burden is crucial to improving prevention and control strategies， and resource allocation of dengue fever in China. After reviewing the definition， classification of disease burden， epidemiological evaluation methods such as potential years of life lost （PYLL） and disability adjusted of life years （DALY）， as well as economic evaluation methods such as step-by-step model method and human capital method， this article systematically summarizes the application of mixed models and catalytic models in quantifying the disease burden of latent dengue infected individuals， as well as the current research status and limitations of dengue disease burden in China， proposing suggestions for future assessment research on disease burden of dengue.
