Abstract
Objective: In this article, we try to establish significant differences between the fever patterns of 11 relevant tropical diseases transmitted by arthropods. Material and methods: It has been made a bibliographic review from databases such as PubMed and Web Of Science in several diseases that were: American trypanosomiasis, Malaria, Dengue, Chikungunya, Yellow fever, Toscana virus, African trypanosomiasis, Relapsing fever, Epidemic typhus, TBEV and Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever. Results and discussion: Despite bibliographic obstacles, data of the fever evolution from all diseases was found. According to this data, diseases were divided between a polyphase pattern and a monophasic one. Further differences between them were mentioned. Conclusions: Were not found significant differences among the fever pattern of these diseases and this makes that fever would not be recommended with a diagnostic mean. We have found a biphasic pattern in diseases caused by viruses from Flaviviridae family.
