Overview of Tropical Medicine

Definition of the tropics

  • Between the Tropic of Cancer (north latitude 23°26′) and the Tropic of Capricorn (south latitude 23°26′)
  • Covers 40% of land surfaces and 40% of population

Top 3 causes of death in LMICs, HICs and worldwide in 2016

*Bold names are communicable diseases

Worldwide LMICs HICs
  1. Ischemic heart disease
  2. Stroke
  3. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)

  1. Ischemic heart disease
  2. Stroke

  • These are NOT listed as NTDs
    • HIV/AIDS
    • Tuberculosis
    • Malaria
    • Lower respiratory infections
    • Diarrhea

Virus

Two major classification manners of viruses

  • RNA virus vs DNA virus
  • Enveloped virus vs Non-enveloped virus

Diagnostic methods of virus infection

  • Detection of pathogen
    • Genome detection by PCR and other NAATs (nucleic acid amplification tests)
    • Antigen detection by ELISA and immunochromatography, etc.
    • Virus isolation using human/animal cells
  • Detection of antibody
    • IgM or IgG by ELISA and immunochromatography, etc.
    • Neutralizing antibody using human/animal cells

Definition of arboviruses

Classification of major arboviruses and their major vectors

Warning signs of severe dengue

List of Vaccine-preventable arbovirus infections

Essential knowledge of HIV

Watch our Group 4 video and pick up information described in blue letters!

Bacteria

Biological basis of Gram staining

  • Bacteria have both of cell wall and cell membrane
    • Human and other animal cells have no cell wall
    • Plant cells have cell wall
  • Some bacteria have thick cell wall without outer membrane
  • Other bacteria have thin cell wall with outer membrane
  • Cell wall contains a layer of Peptidoglycan
File Bacterial cell walls.jpg
  • Thick peptidoglycan layer catches and keep crystal violet with iodine
  • Outer membrane catches crystal violet with iodine but easily lose them by ethanol rinsing

Classification of major Gram-Positive cocci

Catalase Positive
in tubes		 Coagulase Positive
in tubes		 Coagulase Negative
in tubes
  • Staphylococcus aureus
  • Staphylococcus epidermidis
  • Staphylococcus saprophyticus
Catalase Negative
in tubes		 α hemolytic
(partial hemolysis)
on media		 β hemolytic
(complete hemolysis)
on media		 γ hemolytic
(no hemolysis)
on media
  • Streptococcus pneumoniae
  • Streptococcus suis
  • viridans Streptococcus
  • Group A (beta) streptococci (Streptococcus pyogenes)
  • Group B (beta) streptococci (Streptococcus agalactae)
  • Group C (beta) streptococci
  • Group G (beta) streptococci
  • Streptococcus bovis
  • Enterococcus faecium
  • Enterococcus faecalis

Classification of major Gram-Positive bacilli

Spore forming Non-spore forming
Aerobic
  • Bacillus anthracis
  • Bacillus cereus
  • Corynebacterium diphtheria
Anaerobic
  • Clostridium tetani
  • Clostridium perfringens
  • Listeria monocytogenes

Classification of major Gram-Negative cocci

Classification of major Gram-Negative bacili

Lactose fermenting
  • Escherichia coli
  • Klebsiella pneumoniae
Non-lactose fermenting
  • Shigella spp.
  • Salmonella spp.
  • Yersinia pestis
Non-fermenting
  • Pseudomonas aeruginosa
  • Burkholderia pseudomallei

Essential knowledge of Tuberculosis

  • Bacterial structure different from other major bacteria
    • Too thick lipid-rich cell wall; acid fast
  • Epidemiology and disease burden
  • Three species causing clinical tuberculosis
    • Mycobacterium tuberculosis
    • M. bovis
    • M. africanum (only in Africa)
  • Airborne transmission
    • No contact/fomite transmission
    • Contaminated milk ingestion may cause food-borne tuberculosis by M. bovis (bovis means cow)
  • Three major Symptoms
    • Cough for weeks
    • Weight loss for weeks
    • Night sweats for weeks
  • Diagnostic methods
    • sputum microscopy (Ziel-Nielsen staining)
    • genome detection by GeneXpert (also detects resistance)
    • culture (6-8 weeks)
    • chest X-ray
    • urine LAM assay
    • Mantoux test and IGRA for latent infection
  • Potential of long-term (months, years to decades) infection
    • Human immune system cannot eliminate established infection but only contains (just to 'hide' Mycobacterium)
  • HIV-Tb co-infection is soooooo major public health problem
  • Treatment
    • 6 months (2 intensive + 4 maintenance)
  • Definition of drug resistance
    • MDR
    • XDR

Protozoa

How protozoa differ from bacteria

Classification of major protozoa in terms of reproduction manners and infecting organs/cells

-> Overview_of_protozoa

Essential knowledge of malaria

  • Epidemiology and disease burden of malaria worldwide
    • Especially of Plasmodium falciparum
  • Essential lifecycle
  1. Mosquito stage
  2. Human liver stage
  3. Human red cell stage
  • Only P. vivax and P. ovale have hypnotic stage in liver cause relapse
    • All species cause recrudescence due to inadequate/improper treatment
  • Fever, Anemia, Splenomegaly
  • Cerebral malaria almost only by P. falciparum, which leads to high mortality
  • Diagnosis made by Rapid Diagnostic Test (RDT) and Blood smear microscopy (Giemsa staining)
    • Blood smear includes thick smear (just to detect Plasmodium) and thin smear (confirm species of Plasmodium and degree of parasitemia as disease severity)

Parasite

Major classification of parasites

  • Helminth
    • Nematode (round worm)
    • Trematode (fluke, distoma)
    • Cestode (tape worm)
  • Ectoparasite
