Why this research matters now
The One Health approach, integrating actions across human, animal, and environmental health sectors, is relevant for addressing this zoonosis. Effective control requires prevention measures, effective public policies, interdisciplinary cooperation, and strengthened epidemiological surveillance.
Structured evidence summary
Research question
This narrative review aims to describe the main characteristics of Mpox and present information on the use of the One Health approach in addressing this viral zoonosis.
Study design
Narrative literature review examining publications from 2014 to 2025 in LILACS, SciELO, PubMed, and Google Scholar databases, supplemented by documents from national and international official organizations.
Population and setting
The review addresses Mpox as a globally distributed emerging viral zoonosis, with particular attention to specific groups impacted by behavioral and social factors.
Main findings
Monkeypox virus is a double-stranded DNA orthopoxvirus first identified in animals in 1958 and in humans in the 1970s, presenting two clades capable of causing infection. The disease manifests clinically in prodromal and eruptive phases marked by fever, lymphadenopathy, and skin lesions, with transmission primarily through direct contact with lesions and secretions. Diagnosis is confirmed by PCR, and management involves symptom-related care and treatment of secondary complications.
Public-health relevance
The One Health approach, integrating actions across human, animal, and environmental health sectors, is relevant for addressing this zoonosis. Effective control requires prevention measures, effective public policies, interdisciplinary cooperation, and strengthened epidemiological surveillance.
Important limitations
This summary is limited to the supplied single-article abstract and metadata and requires review of the original paper for decision-grade interpretation.
GIDS interpretation
The disease classifier link confirms that this article addresses Monkeypox and the One Health topic classifier indicates interdisciplinary health system integration content, supporting its discoverability in searches for zoonotic disease management frameworks.
Related GIDS surveillance
Literature context does not validate, explain, or change a surveillance signal. Exact and contextual relationships are shown separately.
Evidence relationships
This article has 6 auditable classifier relationships to diseases, places, topics, and study design.
