Discussion

Analysis reveals four key prognostic indicators for severe dengue in adults, suggesting improved early detection and treatment methods.

Severe dengue infection is significantly predicted by age under 55 years, highlighting targeted risk assessment in younger adults.
Multivariable logistic regression identified severe bleeding, pleural effusion, and low platelet count as crucial prognostic indicators.
The findings suggest that these indicators achieved an AuROC of 0.836, demonstrating reliable prediction of severe dengue outcomes.
Integration of these prognostic factors could enhance risk scoring systems for early identification and intervention in patients with dengue.

Khamnuan et al. (2025) studied this question.
