Narrative review shows increasing incidence and challenges of dengue fever in urban populations, indicating urgent need for prevention strategies.

Dengue fever incidence has sharply risen, surpassing five million cases globally, with climate change and urbanization driving this increase.
The analysis reveals significant challenges in disease surveillance linked to urbanization and population movements, necessitating improved strategies.
Assessment of existing public health measures and their effectiveness forms a core part of understanding dengue's epidemiology and management.
Integrated approaches, including climate-adaptive surveillance and vector control, highlight essential interventions for reducing the burden of dengue.

Valentina et al. (2025) studied this question.
