- Abstract: We aimed to assess clinical and laboratory differences between dengue and chikungunya in children<24 months of age in a comparative study. We collected retrospective clinical and laboratory dataconfirmed by NS1/IgM for dengue for 19 months (1 January 2013 to 17 August 2014). Prospectivedata for chikungunya confirmed by real-time polymerase chain reaction were collected for 4 months(22 September 2014–14 December 2014). Sensitivity and specificity [with 95% confidence interval(CI)] were reported for each disease diagnosis. A platelet count<150 000 cells/ml at emergencyadmission best characterized dengue, with a sensitivity of 67% (95% CI, 53–79) and specificity of95% (95% CI, 82–99). The algorithm developed with classification and regression tree analysisshowed a sensitivity of 93% (95% CI, 68–100) and specificity of 38% (95% CI, 9–76) to diagnosedengue. Our study provides potential differential characteristics between chikungunya and denguein young children, especially low platelet counts
