寨卡病毒（ZIKV）是一种节肢动物传播的病毒，于1947年首次分离出来。从那时起，在不同国家报告了ZIKV的多次爆发。它主要通过伊蚊传播，症状包括发热、关节疼痛、红眼、头痛和斑丘疹，与基孔肯雅病和登革热非常相似。ZIKV感染最严重的并发症包括感染孕妇患小头畸形和其他先天性脑畸形的风险。这是一种可以通过适当的教育很容易预防的情况。在这篇综述中，我们重点介绍了最近寨卡病毒病爆发的不同方面，包括其流行病学背景，传播途径，表现以及诊断和预防。
Zika virus (ZIKV) is an arthropod-borne virus that was first isolated in 1947. Since then, multiple outbreaks of ZIKV have been reported in different countries. It is transmitted mostly by Aedes mosquitoes, and the symptoms of fever, joint pain, red eyes, headache, and maculopapular rash closely resemble chikungunya and dengue. The most severe complications of ZIKV infection include the risk of microcephaly and other congenital brain anomalies in infected pregnant women. It is a condition that can be easily prevented with proper education. In this review, we focussed on different aspects of the recent outbreaks of Zika virus disease, including its epidemiological background, transmission routes, presentation, as well as diagnosis and prevention.
