Predictive diagnostic value of the tourniquet test for the diagnosis of dengue infection in adults

Objective To examine the accuracy of the admission tourniquet test in the diagnosis of dengue infection among Lao adults. Methods Prospective assessment of the predictive diagnostic value of the tourniquet test for the diagnosis of dengue infection, as defined by IgM, IgG and NS1 ELISAs (Panbio Ltd, Australia), among Lao adult inpatients with clinically suspected dengue infection. Results Of 234 patients with clinically suspected dengue infection on admission, 73% were serologically confirmed to have dengue, while 64 patients with negative dengue serology were diagnosed as having scrub typhus (39%), murine typhus (11%), undetermined typhus (12%), Japanese encephalitis virus (5%), undetermined flavivirus (5%) and typhoid fever (3%); 25% had no identifiable aetiology. The tourniquet test was positive in 29.1% (95% CI = 23.2–34.9%) of all patients and in 34.1% (95% CI = 27.0–41.2%) of dengue‐seropositive patients, in 32.7% (95% CI = 23.5–41.8) of those with dengue fever and in 36.4% (95% CI = 24.7–48.0) of those with dengue haemorrhagic fever. Interobserver agreement for the tourniquet test was 90.2% (95% CI = 86.4–94.0) (Kappa = 0.76). Using ELISAs as the diagnostic gold standard, the sensitivity of the tourniquet test was 33.5–34%; its specificity was 84–91%. The positive and negative predictive values were 85–90% and 32.5–34%, respectively. Conclusions The admission tourniquet test has low sensitivity and adds relatively little value to the diagnosis of dengue among Lao adult inpatients with suspected dengue. Although a positive tourniquet test suggests dengue and that treatment of alternative diagnoses may not be needed, a negative test result does not exclude dengue.     

Enhanced West Nile Virus Surveillance in a Dengue-Endemic Area—Puerto Rico, 2007

In June of 2007, West Nile virus (WNV) was detected in sentinel chickens and blood donors in Puerto Rico, where dengue virus (DENV) is hyperendemic. Enhanced human surveillance for acute febrile illness (AFI) began in eastern Puerto Rico on July 1, 2007. Healthcare providers submitted specimens from AFI cases for WNV and DENV virology and serology testing. Over 6 months, 385 specimens were received from 282 cases; 115 (41%) specimens were DENV laboratory-positive, 86 (31%) specimens were laboratory-indeterminate, and 32 (11%) specimens were laboratory-negative for WNV and DENV. One WNV infection was detected by anti-WNV immunoglobulin M (IgM) antibody and confirmed by a plaque reduction neutralization test. DENV and WNV infections could not be differentiated in 27 cases (10%). During a period of active WNV transmission, enhanced human surveillance identified one case of symptomatic WNV infection. Improved diagnostic methods are needed to allow differentiation of WNV and DENV in dengue-endemic regions.     

Epidemiological and Clinical Characteristics of Acute Dengue Virus Infections Detected through Acute Febrile Illness Surveillance,Belize 2020

The Acute Febrile Illness (AFI) Surveillance Network in Belize is a country-wide active surveillance program aimed at diagnosing vector-borne, respiratory, and enteric pathogens among patients presenting to 11 participating hospitals and clinics with new onset fever. This study describes the epidemiology of dengue virus (DENV) infections in Belize diagnosed through AFI surveillance in 2020. Of the 894 patients enrolled and PCR-tested for DENV in this period, 44 DENV-positive cases (5%) were identified. All four DENV serotypes were detected, with two cases testing positive for DENV serotype 4, which is the first report of this serotype in Belize since 2004. The majority of DENV cases (66%) were diagnosed in the Belize District, which contains the largest urban center in the country (Belize City). Positive cases were detected between January 2020 and September 2020, with the majority (89%) diagnosed during the dry season between January and April, unlike years prior when cases were more often diagnosed during the wet season. Clinical signs and symptoms varied slightly between DENV serotypes. Active surveillance of DENV among AFI cases provides insight into the epidemiologic and clinical characteristics of DENV in Belize. This information is important for informing public health interventions to mitigate DENV transmission.     

Epidemic dengue hemorrhagic fever in rural Indonesia. II. Clinical studies.

Clinical observations were made on 95 serologically or virologically confirmed dengue fever cases during an epidemic in a rural area of Indonesia in December 1976. The age distribution was similar to that observed in patients with dengue hemorrhagic fever in Jakarta, a highly endemic urban area. The observed disease ranged in severity from undifferentiated fever to shock and death. The majority of patients had acute onset of fever with nausea, vomiting, headache, and abdominal pain. Hepatomegaly was observed in only 19% of the patients. A positive tourniquet test was the most frequently observed hemorrhagic manifestation, but epistaxis was observed in 20% and hematemesis in 6% of the patients. Dengue shock syndrome was observed in 37% of the patients. There were four deaths, three of which were confirmed as due to dengue infection by virus isolation. The data suggest that one, and possibly two, of the fatal cases with virus isolation were primary infections, based on the results of hemagglutination-inhibition test using all four dengue antigens.     

Comparison of clinical characteristics and outcomes of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis and culture negative neutrocytic ascites

Objective: Ascitic fluid infections (AFI) in cirrhotic patients can be classified into two groups: spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) and culture-negative neutrocytic ascites (CNNA). The aim of this study was to compare the clinical characteristics and outcomes of the two groups of patients with AFI.

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of cirrhotic patients with AFI. We evaluated demographic data, clinical presentations of AFI, laboratory findings, liver function, and mortality rates.

Results: Between January 2005 and December 2014, 533 patients with AFI were evaluated; 259 (48.6%) had SBP and 274 (51.4%) CNNA. Ascites neutrophil count (4410/mm³ versus 1046/mm³, p?<?.001) and the blood culture positive rate (38.1% versus 20.1%, p?<?.001) were higher in the SBP group, which also had a higher MELD score (24.29 versus 22.05, p?=?.004). Seven-day mortality was higher in the SBP group (9.4% versus 4.5%, p?=?.027) but there was no significant difference in 30-day (22.1% versus 17.5%) or 90-day mortality rate (36.1% versus 36.4%).

Conclusions: Patients in the SBP group had a higher MELD score, ascites neutrophil count, and positive blood culture rate. Although seven-day mortality rate was higher in the SBP group, the 30-day and 90-day mortality rates were similar in the two groups.     

Unfurling the Rationale Use of Platelet Transfusion in Dengue Fever

Dengue fever and dengue haemorrhagic fever have emerged as a global public health problem in recent decades. The practice of platelet transfusion has been adapted into the standard clinical practice in management of hospitalized dengue patients. The exact indications and situations in which platelet have to be transfused may vary greatly. Blood components especially platelet concentrates due to their short shelf life are frequently in limited supply. Hence, appropriate use of blood is required to ensure the availability of blood for patients in whom it is really indicated, as well as to avoid unnecessary exposure of the patients to the risk of transfusion reactions and transmission of blood borne infection. The present study was conducted to evaluate the appropriateness of platelet transfusion done in dengue patients with thrombocytopenia. The present study was conducted on 343 serologically confirmed dengue patients admitted at JSS University Hospital between 1st January and 30th August 2009. Clinical data, platelet count and platelet requirements were analyzed. Among the 343 serologically confirmed cases, the prevalence of thrombocytopenia (platelet count < 100,000/cumm) was 64.72% (222 patients) and bleeding manifestations were recorded in 6.12% (21 patients). 71 (20.7%) patients of dengue cases received platelet transfusion. Among them 34 (47.89%) patients had a platelet count <20,000/cumm, 28 patients (39.44%) had platelet counts in the range of 21–40,000/cumm while the remaining 9 (12.67%) patients had platelet count between 41–100,000/cumm. Out of 37 patients with a platelet count >20,000/cumm 11 patients had haemorrhagic manifestations such as petechiae, gum bleeding, epistaxis etc., which necessitates the use of platelet transfusion. However, the remaining 26 patients with platelet count >20,000/cumm and with no haemorrhagic manifestations received inappropriate platelet transfusion. Transfusion of 36.62% of platelet concentrate was inappropriate. The study emphasizes the need for development of specific guidelines for transfusion of blood components, constant interaction and co-ordination amongst clinicians and transfusion centre for implementation of these guidelines and a regular medical audit to review the optimal utilization of blood components.     

Dengue

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Because efforts to control dengue are flagging, this review focuses on the mechanisms underlying severe disease and on treatment options, good and bad. RECENT FINDINGS: The year 2001 witnessed unprecedented global dengue epidemic activity in the American hemisphere, the Pacific islands and continental Asia. Early diagnosis of dengue is important but what is the value and appropriate use of the tourniquet test? A negative test does not rule out dengue infection, a positive test should be followed by close surveillance for early signs of dengue hemorrhagic fever. Low platelet counts do not predict clinically significant bleeding in dengue. It follows that platelet or blood transfusions should not be administered based upon platelet count alone. Dengue hemorrhagic fever or dengue shock syndrome cases frequently have compensated consumptive coagulopathy that seldom requires treatment. Bleeding is most likely caused by activated platelets resulting from damaged capillary endothelium. Dengue hemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome can be safely treated with just normal saline. Colloids should be immediately given to children presenting with a pulse pressure at or below 10 mmHg. Human leukocyte antigen alleles correlate with both protection and susceptibility to dengue hemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome; studies in Haiti suggest that blacks have a gene providing nearly complete protection against severe dengue illness. SUMMARY: The role that antibodies play in protecting and enhancing dengue infections has been largely ignored. Such studies require definitive knowledge of what cells are infected in human dengue and an understanding of all the early antibody-accessible steps of infection of these target cells.     

Laboratory diagnosis and symptoms of dengue, during an outbreak in the Ribeir?o Preto region, SP, Brazil]

A dengue type 1 outbreak started in the Ribeirao Preto Region, North of Sao Paulo State, Brazil, in November of 1990. About 3500 dengue cases were confirmed by blood tests until February of 1991. The Virus Research Unit of The Faculty of Medicine of Ribeirao Preto-Sao Paulo State University, studied 502 dengue suspect cases. The serologic diagnosis of dengue type 1 was confirmed by haemagglutination inhibition test (HAI) in 19% of the cases. Diagnosis was done later by using an enzyme immuno assay on infected cultured cells (EIA-ICC) which discriminated IgG and IgM dengue, antibodies. EIA-ICC was less sensitive (89%) but more effective than HAI. EIA-ICC is a simple technique. It dispenses a second serum sample for diagnosis and it can be completed in about 5 hours. Dengue virus was isolated from the blood of 21 patients by inoculation in culture of mosquito C6/36 cells. The isolated virus were identified by indirect immunofluorescent test, by using an antisera pool to the flavivirus family and dengue type specific monoclonal antibodies. The dengue most frequent symptoms in 71 patients were observed: fever (90%), myalgias (57%) and arthralgias (41%).     

Performance of the Tourniquet Test for Diagnosing Dengue in Peru

The tourniquet test (TT) is a physical examination maneuver often performed on patients suspected of having dengue. It has been incorporated into dengue diagnostic guidelines and is used in clinical studies. However, little is known about TT performance characteristics in different patient types or epidemiologic conditions. In the dengue-endemic city of Iquitos, Peru, we performed TTs and dengue laboratory assays on 13,548 persons with febrile disease, recruited through either active (n = 1,095) or passive (n = 12,453) surveillance. The sensitivity was 52% and 56%, the specificity was 58% and 68%, the positive predictive value was 45% and 55%, and the negative predictive value was 64% and 69% for persons enrolled in active and passive surveillance, respectively. We demonstrated that the TT was more sensitive identifying dengue disease in women and those of younger age and that sensitivity increased the later a person came to a medical clinic for care.     

Mean platelet volume as a novel predictor of systemic inflammatory response in cirrhotic patients with culture-negative neutrocytic ascites

AIM: To identify a mean platelet volume (MPV) cutoff value which should be able to predict the presence of bacterial infection.METHODS: An observational, analytic, retrospective study. We evaluated medical records of cirrhotic patients who were hospitalized from January 2012 to January 2014 at the Gastroenterology Department of “Hospital General de México Dr. Eduardo Liceaga”, we included 51 cirrhotic patients with ascites fluid infection (AFI), and 50 non-infected cirrhotic patients as control group. Receiver operator characteristic curves were used to identify the best cutoff value of several parameters from hematic cytometry, including MPV, to predict the presence of ascites fluid infection.RESULTS: Of the 51 cases with AFI, 48 patients (94.1%) had culture-negative neutrocytic ascites (CNNA), 2 (3.9%) had bacterial ascites, and one (2%) had spontaneous bacterial peritonitis. Infected patients had greater count of leucocytes and polymorphonuclear cells, greater levels of MPV and cardiac frequency (P < 0.0001), and lower mean arterial pressure compared with non-infected patients (P = 0.009). Leucocytes, polymorphonuclear count, MPV and cardiac frequency resulted to be good or very good predictive variables of presence of AFI in cirrhotic patients (area under the receiving operating characteristic > 0.80). A cutoff MPV value of 8.3 fl was the best to discriminate between cirrhotic patients with AFI and those without infection.CONCLUSION: Our results support that MPV can be an useful predictor of systemic inflammatory response syndrome in cirrhotic patients with AFI, particularly CNNA.     

Useful clinical features and hematological parameters for the diagnosis of dengue infection in patients with acute febrile illness: a retrospective study

Background

Dengue infection patients are presented with acute febrile illness. Clinical presentations may mimic other infections. The serology for definite diagnosis is costly and inaccessible in many hospitals. We sought to identify the clinical features and hematologic parameters from a complete blood count (CBC) which distinguish dengue infection from other causes.

Methods

This was a retrospective single center study from Chiang Mai University Hospital. All patients who presented with acute fever between September 2013 and July 2015 were included. The diagnosis of dengue infection must be confirmed by serology. The control groups were patients who presented with acute febrile illness without localizing signs. Clinical data and CBC results were reviewed and compared. The Chi-square test was used to compare categorical variables. The CBC parameters were analyzed using the linear mixed model.

Results

One hundred and fifty-four dengue and 146 control patients were included. Headache, nausea, loss of appetite and bleeding diathesis were significantly symptoms in dengue patients (p?<?0.05). There was some diversity in the the CBC in the dengue patients compared to the control group. Moreover, this study also identified the day of fever which these parameters were statistically significant. The dengue group had higher hemoglobin and hematocrit from day 3 to day 10 (p?<?0.001), lower white blood cell count from day 1 to day 10 (p?<?0.001), lower platelet count from day 3 to day 10 (p?<?0.001), higher monocyte on day 1–4 (p?<?0.001), higher atypical lymphocyte percentage on day 5–9 (p?<?0.001) and higher eosinophil percentage on day 9–10 (p?=?0.001). Furthermore, the neutrophil to lymphocyte percentage ratio of dengue group was >?1 on the first 5 days then reversed on day 6 to Day 9 but in non-dengue group, the ratio was always >?1.

Conclusion

We identified important clinical features and CBC parameters to differentiate dengue patients from other patients who had acute febrile illness from other causes. This identification could be done in local hospitals to give an accurate diagnosis, enabling further investigation to be tailored and treatment commenced earlier.

     

The clinical differences between dengue and scrub typhus with acute respiratory failure in southern Taiwan

Background

For both dengue and scrub typhus, acute respiratory failure (ARF) is a serious complication. The present study was carried out in order to investigate the clinical courses and outcomes of adult dengue and scrub typhus patients with ARF, and to identify the clinical differences between adult dengue and scrub typhus patients with ARF.

Methods

We conducted a retrospective study of the serologically confirmed adult dengue or scrub typhus patients admitted between 1998 and 2008 at Kaohsiung Chang Gung Memorial Hospital. A total of 980 dengue and 102 scrub typhus adult patients were included in our study.

Results

Eighteen of the 980 adult dengue patients and 8 of the 102 adult scrub typhus patients had ARF. There were significant differences that existed for eschar (P?=?0.001; dengue 0%; scrub 62.5%), cough (P?=?0.016; dengue 55.6%; scrub typhus 100%), white blood cell (WBC) count [P?=?0.026; dengue 7.40?±?5.74; scrub typhus 11.84?±?4.95 (×10³/??L)], platelet count [P?=?0.008; dengue 42.2?±?33.9; scrub typhus 104.1?±?93.3 (×10⁹/L)], prothrombin time (PT) [P?=?0.007; dengue 12.82?±?1.36; scrub typhus 10.74?±?0.98 (s)], activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) [P?=?0.002; dengue 50.81?±?10.08; scrub typhus 37.44?±?4.06 (s)], blood urea nitrogen (BUN) [P?P?P?=?0.027; dengue 2.9?±?1.3; scrub typhus 5.4?±?2.6 (days)], and ventilator duration [P?=?0.022; dengue 9.4?±?14.0; scrub typhus 14.8?±?10.4 (days)] between both groups.

Conclusions

This study provides relatively rare data regarding the clinical differences between adult dengue and scrub typhus patients with ARF.     

Evaluation of the World Health Organization standard tourniquet test and a modified tourniquet test in the diagnosis of dengue infection in Viet Nam

OBJECTIVES: A positive tourniquet test is one of several clinical parameters considered by the World Health Organization to be important in the diagnosis of dengue haemorrhagic fever, but no formal evaluation of the test has been undertaken. As many doctors remain unconvinced of its usefulness, this study was designed to assess the diagnostic utility of both the standard test and a commonly employed modified test. METHODS: A prospective evaluation of the standard sphygmomanometer cuff tourniquet test, compared with a simple elastic cuff tourniquet test, was carried out in 1136 children with suspected dengue infection admitted to a provincial paediatric hospital in southern Viet Nam. RESULTS: There was good agreement between independent observers for both techniques, but the sphygmomanometer method resulted in consistently greater numbers of petechiae. This standard method had a sensitivity of 41.6% for dengue infection, with a specificity of 94.4%, positive predictive value of 98.3% and negative predictive value of 17.3%. The test differentiated poorly between dengue haemorrhagic fever (45% positive) and dengue fever (38% positive). The simple elastic tourniquet was less sensitive than the sphygmomanometer cuff, but at a threshold of 10 petechiae (compared with the WHO recommendation of 20) per 2.5 cm2 the sensitivity for the elastic tourniquet rose to 45% (specificity 85%). Other evidence of bleeding was frequently present and the tourniquet test provided additional information to aid diagnosis in only 5% of cases. CONCLUSION: The conventional tourniquet test adds little to the diagnosis of dengue in hospitalized children. The simple, cheap elastic tourniquet may be useful in diagnosing dengue infection in busy rural health stations in dengue endemic areas of the tropics. A positive test should prompt close observation or early hospital referral, but a negative test does not exclude dengue infection.     

Determinants of Mortality from Severe Dengue in Brazil: A Population-Based Case-Control Study

Although increases in severity of mortality from dengue infection have been observed in Brazil, their determinants are not fully known. A case–control study was conducted by using the National Notifiable Diseases Surveillance System, including patients with severe dengue during 2000–2005. Cases were defined as patients that died and controls were those who survived. Hierarchical multivariate logistic regression was performed. During the study period, there were 12,321 severe cases of dengue and 1,062 deaths. Factors independently associated with death included age ≥ 50 years (odds ratio [OR] = 2.29, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.59–3.29), < 4 years of schooling (OR = 1.83, 95% CI = 1.47–2.28), a rural area (OR =2.84, 95% CI = 2.19–3.69), hospitalization (OR = 1.42, 95% CI = 1.17–1.73), and a high hematocrit (OR = 2.46, 95% CI = 1.85–3.28). Factors associated with a lower chance of dying were female sex (OR = 0.76, 95% CI = 0.67–0.87), history of previous dengue (OR = 0.78, 95% CI = 0.62–0.99), positive tourniquet test result (OR = 0.47, 95% CI = 0.33–0.66), laboratory diagnosis of dengue (OR = 0.75, 95% CI = 0.61–0.92), and a platelet count of 50,000–100,000 cells/mm³ (OR = 0.56, 95% CI = 0.36–0.87). The risk profile identified in this study should serve to direct public health interventions to minimize deaths.     

Clinical and biochemical profile of dengue haemorrhagic fever in children in Delhi

The clinical and biochemical profile of dengue haemorrhagic fever (DHF) varies from epidemic to epidemic. We studied children hospitalized with DHF from September 2003 to December 2003. All were diagnosed, managed and monitored according to a standard protocol. Of the 34 who fulfilled the World Health Organization criteria of DHF, 22 (64.6%) were male. All patients presented with fever and hepatomegaly. Examination also revealed splenomegaly in 11 (32.4%), ascites in 6 (17.6%) and pleural effusion in 3 (8.8%). Common bleeding manifestations were positive tourniquet test in 22 (64.7%) and epistaxis in eight (23.5%). Most children had a platelet count of between 20,000/mm(3) and 50,000/mm(3) (56%). Bleeding manifestations were not related to platelet count (P > 0.05). Serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase (SGPT) >40 IU/L was seen in 22 (64.6%) patients, alkaline phosphate (ALP) >400 IU/L in 12 (35.3%) and serum bilirubin >1 mg% in 3 (8.8%). IgM dengue serology was positive in 68.5% cases. There was no significant difference in liver function tests with age or sex (P > 0.05). Clinical features of DHF varied from the previous epidemic. Hepatic dysfunction with increased levels of serum enzymes was common in DHF.     

Differentiating dengue virus infection from scrub typhus in Thai adults with fever

Dengue fever and scrub typhus are common infections in Asia that often present as acute febrile illness of unclear etiology. We prospectively evaluated febrile adults presenting to the outpatient department of a hospital in northern Thailand to attempt to identify distinguishing characteristics between the two infections. Fifty-four patients were infected with scrub typhus and 35 were infected with dengue virus. Dengue virus infection was associated with hemorrhagic manifestations, particularly bleeding from the gums, which was reported by 27% of the dengue patients, but by none of the scrub typhus patients (P < 0.001, by Fisher's exact test). A low platelet count (< 140,000/mm3) and low white blood cell count (< 5,000/mm3) were strongly associated with dengue infections: odds ratio = 26.3 (95% confidence interval [CI] = 7.4-93.2) for platelet count and 8.2 (95% CI = 2.6-25.5) for leukocyte count. Prospective evaluations of the usefulness of these simple criteria to differentiate scrub typhus from dengue infection are needed in other areas, particularly where rapid confirmatory diagnostic tests are not available.     

Utility of Platelet Parameters in Serologically Proven Dengue Cases with Thrombocytopenia

Worldwide, there is a rise in the incidence of dengue infection associated with multiple serotypes. Epidemiological studies have reported a higher incidence of severe dengue in secondary dengue infections. A rapid fall in platelet count associated with an increase in hematocrit above the baseline is one of the warning signs of plasma leakage. This study was undertaken to determine the utility of platelet indices such as mean platelet volume (MPV), platelet distribution width (PDW) and plateletcrit in dengue fever cases with thrombocytopenia. A hospital-based cross-sectional study was carried out between April and September 2014, among dengue patients with thrombocytopenia using platelet histograms. The study population included all the laboratory confirmed cases of dengue infection with thrombocytopenia admitted at Kasturba Medical College, Manipal, Karnataka during the study period. The blood samples collected from serologically confirmed dengue patients with thrombocytopenia were analyzed using automated analyzer within 2 h of venipuncture. The platelet histograms (MPV, PDW, Plateletcrit) generated by the Beckman Coulter counter LH755? and LH780? series were assessed in dengue fever cases with thrombocytopenia. The mean platelet volume (MPV) was observed to be 9.01 fL (SD = 0.09). The mean platelet distribution width and median plateletcrit were 17.2% (SD = 0.98) and 0.47 (IQR 0.2–0.8) respectively. None of the study participants presented with bleeding manifestations. The present study revealed no significant changes of platelet parameters in dengue cases with thrombocytopenia.     

Economic cost of dengue in Puerto Rico

Dengue, endemic in Puerto Rico, reached a record high in 2010. To inform policy makers, we derived annual economic cost. We assessed direct and indirect costs of hospitalized and ambulatory dengue illness in 2010 dollars through surveillance data and interviews with 100 laboratory-confirmed dengue patients treated in 2008-2010. We corrected for underreporting by using setting-specific expansion factors. Work absenteeism because of a dengue episode exceeded the absenteeism for an episode of influenza or acute otitis media. From 2002 to 2010, the aggregate annual cost of dengue illness averaged $38.7 million, of which 70% was for adults (age 15+ years). Hospitalized patients accounted for 63% of the cost of dengue illness, and fatal cases represented an additional 17%. Households funded 48% of dengue illness cost, the government funded 24%, insurance funded 22%, and employers funded 7%. Including dengue surveillance and vector control activities, the overall annual cost of dengue was $46.45 million ($12.47 per capita).
