This visit had been made possible by Profes­ sor Dr. med. Dr. rer. nat. Ouay Ketusinh of Bangkok, to whom I wish to express my sincere thanks in this place. In 1972 the German medical literature - the periodical Medizinische Klinik, vol. 87, pp. 152-56, to be precise - had drawn attention to this new phenomenon in the disease panorama of South East Asia, indicating a change in dengue fever from being a relatively benign tropical dis­ ease to a form having serious clinical and epidemiological ramifications. During the ten years following my first publication the new clinical picture, described as \"dengue haemorrhagic fever\", has become a standard component in the Thailand's system of notifiable diseases. So too, the World Health Orga­ nization publishes regular reports in its Weekly Records. On March 30\/31, 1981, its Regional Office for South East Asia convened a special conference in New Delhi, thus emphasizing the significance of the diffusion of this new clini­ cal picture in the states of South East Asia.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2011-11-19\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783642691546\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-642-69152-2\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 244.0cm x170.0cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 42.0\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Berlin Heidelberg","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44448443334796,"sku":"9783642691546","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783642691546.jpg?v=1756867141","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783642691546","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
