RESUMEN

We report the clinical outcome and prognostic factors in 39 cases of childhood Japanese Encephalitis admitted to a tertiary hospital of Upper Assam and followed up for 421 days in the community. The mortality rate was 20.5% in our study. The mean GCS (9.97 +/- 0.91) was higher in surviving cases than the fatal cases (GCS 7.5 +/- 1.78) at admission. The fatal cases died within 4.75 +/- 3.19 days in the hospital. All the patients had low BMI (surviving cases 13.54 +/- 2.3; fatal cases 12.05 +/- 0.12) and were anemic. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) was clear in 91.4% cases but pressure and protein content were increased in all cases. About 10% cases had parkinsonian features at the time of discharge. Residual symptoms remained in about one third of cases even after 421 days.

RESUMEN

In a hospital based study in Dibrugarh upper Assam carried out over a period of one year, 250 normal individuals, were screened for antibody to Japanese encephalitis Virus. 44 individuals (17.6%) showed antibody to JE virus. The highest numbers were found in July and August, each 40%, and lowest in January (4%). The ratio of apparent to inapparent infection in this study was found to be 9.1 : 100, which is lower than reported in Assam earlier, but slightly higher than predicted for India as a whole.
