<p><b>Detection and molecular

<p><b>ABSTRACT</b></p>
<p><b>Background:</b> Arboviral diseases has reemerged
in the last years affecting primarily the
coast of Peru. Piura is an endemic region of Dengue, where
the recent appearance of Chikungunya (CHIKV) and Zika (ZIKV) has been renewed.</p>
<p><b>Aim:</b> To assess
the presence of DENV, CHIKV, and ZIKV in
serum samples of patients with acute febrile illness in a locality ofPiura,
Peru and describe associated clinical features.</p>
<p><b>Methodology:</b> Descriptive
cross-sectional study, sampling was done for convenience where it was obtained
atotal of 496 serum samples from patients with acute febrile illness were
collected from 18 primary care centers. All samples were analyzed via real-time
RT-PCR to detect DENV, CHIKV, and ZIKV.
In addition, positive samples for DENV were also processed for serotypes 1 to 4
classification via RT-PCR.</p>
<p><b>Results:</b> DENV was
the most common arbovirus detected in 170/496 (34.3%), followed by ZIKV in
39/496 (7.9%) and CHIKV in 23/496 (4.6%).
Among the 170 samples positive for DENV, serotype 2 was the most
predominant type present in 97/170 (57.1%) of samples, followed by the serotype
3 in 9/170 (5.3%). Headaches, muscle pain,
and joint pain were the most common symptoms associated with fever in patients
with DENV and ZIKV. No symptoms predominance was observed in patients with
CHIKV.</p>
<p><b>Conclusions:</b> </p>
<p>DENV is
considered the most frequent arbovirus in Peru and the number of cases has increased
dramatically in the last 5 years. However, it is not the only arbovirus that
circulates along the northern coast of Peru. It has also been determined the
presence of ZIKV and CHIKV in our population, which may suggest the circulation
of other arboviruses that have not been detected.</p>
