Overview
Japanese encephalitis may be classified according to location of the disease into 2 subtypes: systemic or encephalitic. Japanese encephalitis may also be classified according to neuroinvasiveness of the disease into 2 subtypes: neuroinvasive and non-neuroinvasive. Japanese encephalitis is also known as an arbovirus, or an arthropod-borne virus.
Classification
Japanese encephalitis may be classified according to location of the disease into 2 subtypes: systemic or encephalitic. Japanese encephalitis may also be classified according to neuroinvasiveness of the disease into 2 subtypes: neuroinvasive and non-neuroinvasive. Japanese encephalitis virus belongs to the Group IV positive-sense ssRNA virus within the Flaviridae family of viruses, and the genus Flavivirus. Japanese encephalitis virus is closely related to yellow fever virus, dengue virus, west nile virus, and St. Louis encephalitis virus.[1] Japanese encephalitis is also known as an arbovirus, or an arthropod-borne virus.
