Nipah virüsü: Yaklaşan küresel sağlık sorunu

Öz

Nipah virüs (NiV) salgınları, toplum sağlığı üzerine yıkıcı sonuçlara yol açma potansiyeli nedeniyle küresel ilgi toplamıştır. 2025 yılında Kerala'da Nipah virüsü enfeksiyonundan kaynaklanan iki ölümün ardından ve Hindistan'da bugüne kadar bildirilen %69,4'lük genel vaka ölüm oranını (CFR) göz önünde bulundurarak, bu derleme makalesi, tarihsel geçmişini, epidemiyolojisini, bulaşma modellerini, klinik özelliklerini, tanı yaklaşımlarını, tedavi seçeneklerini, önleyici stratejileri ve güncel araştırma gelişmelerini kapsayan NiV salgınlarının kapsamlı bir analizini sunmaktadır. Başlıca meyve yarasalarından insanlara bulaşan zoonotik bir patojen olan Nipah virüsü, özellikle Güneydoğu Asya olmak üzere çeşitli bölgelerde kalıcı bir tehdit oluşturmaktadır. Geçmişte yaşanan salgınların ve alınan derslerin eleştirel bir değerlendirmesi ile bu derleme Nipah virüsünün daha iyi anlaşılmasını ve gelecekte olası salgınlara hazır bulunuşluk ve yanıt verme çabalarına katkıda bulunmayı hedeflemektedir.
