Tinjauan Sistematis Dampak Perubahan Iklim terhadap Kejadian Penyakit Demam Berdarah Dengue (DBD) di Asia Tenggara : Analisis Artikel Tahun 2016-2025

Introduction

Tinjauan sistematis dampak perubahan iklim terhadap kejadian penyakit demam berdarah dengue (dbd) di asia tenggara : analisis artikel tahun 2016-2025. Tinjauan sistematis ini menganalisis dampak perubahan iklim terhadap kejadian DBD di Asia Tenggara (2016-2025). Suhu, curah hujan, & kelembaban tinggi mempercepat transmisi & penyebaran.

Abstract

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) remains a significant public health issue in Southeast Asia, with its transmission closely linked to climatic factors such as temperature, rainfall, and humidity. Climate change has intensified these factors, leading to increased mosquito breeding, faster virus replication, and broader geographic spread. This systematic review aims to examine the impact of climate change on DHF incidence in Southeast Asia. Using Sytematic Review methods with PRISMA guidelines flow, articles published from 2016 to 2025 were identified from PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect, ProQuest, and SageJournal databases. Fourteen relevant studies meeting inclusion criteria were analyzed in this research.The findings indicate that temperatures, increased rainfall, and high humidity significantly contribute to higher DHF transmission by supporting mosquito survival and virus development. Seasonal outbreaks are often observed during rainy seasons, and extreme climate events such as El Niño and La Niña further influence case surges. Based on Systematic Review from various arcticles, climate change significantly affects Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever patterns in the Southeast Asia. Climatic factors such as temperature, rainfall, humidity, and extreme climate phenomena like El Niño and La Niña have been shown to accelerate the life cycle of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, increase the virus transmission capacity, and expand the geographic distribution of dengue-endemic areas. Climate change, both seasonal and long-term, has the potential to exacerbate the burden of dengue fever in this region, particularly in tropical and subtropical areas that are vulnerable to climate impacts.

Review

This systematic review addresses a critical and highly relevant public health issue: the nexus between climate change and Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) incidence in Southeast Asia. The chosen geographical focus is entirely appropriate, given the region's high DHF endemicity and its vulnerability to climate impacts. The methodology, employing a systematic review adhering to PRISMA guidelines and drawing from multiple reputable databases (PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect, ProQuest, SageJournal), suggests a robust approach to identifying relevant literature. The stated review period, from 2016 to 2025, aims to capture recent developments in this rapidly evolving field, although the inclusion of future years warrants a slight clarification in the full manuscript. The review effectively consolidates evidence demonstrating a significant correlation between climatic factors and DHF transmission. Key findings underscore how elevated temperatures, increased rainfall, and high humidity create optimal conditions for *Aedes aegypti* mosquito breeding, accelerate virus replication, and expand the geographic reach of the disease. The explicit mention of seasonal outbreaks during rainy periods and the exacerbating influence of extreme climate events like El Niño and La Niña provides crucial insights into the dynamic nature of dengue epidemiology. The synthesis ultimately confirms climate change's potential to intensify the burden of DHF, particularly in vulnerable tropical and subtropical zones. While the abstract outlines a valuable synthesis of existing research, a minor methodological point warranting clarification is the inclusion of articles up to "2025" in the search timeframe, which is unusual for a completed review. Assuming this implies a forward-looking scope or is a typographical error, the full paper should ideally specify how future articles were incorporated or if the search was conducted up to a specific cut-off date. The analysis of fourteen studies, while providing a foundation, might be considered a relatively modest number given the extensive timeframe and multiple databases, potentially indicating very strict inclusion criteria or the current state of highly specific research in this area. Overall, this review provides a timely and important contribution to understanding the complex interplay between climate change and DHF, laying crucial groundwork for future research into specific adaptation and mitigation strategies.
