This book presents current research in the study of the types, treatment and health risks of fevers. Topics include the African Swine Fever virus pathogenesis and vaccine development; diagnosis of acute or obscure and prolonged febrile illnesses in adult patients; fevers of unknown origin in internal medicine; experimental fever and the role of acting neuropeptide mediators; fevers of intermediate duration; metabolic features of endothelium in hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome; rat bite fever; nonlocal modeling of insect borne diseases; and treatment and drug resistance in cholera.
