Snippet: We hypothesised that the clinical benefit observed in dengue patients treated with chloroquine could be due to the drug's anti-inflammatory effects, particularly because chloroquine is a tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-α inhibitor and some of the clinical manifestations in dengue patients are due to high levels of serum TNF-α (Hober et al. 1993 , Pinto et al. 1999 , Gandini et al. 2011 .

Document: We hypothesised that the clinical benefit observed in dengue patients treated with chloroquine could be due to the drug's anti-inflammatory effects, particularly because chloroquine is a tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-α inhibitor and some of the clinical manifestations in dengue patients are due to high levels of serum TNF-α (Hober et al. 1993 , Pinto et al. 1999 , Gandini et al. 2011 . Another possible effect of chloroquine in dengue patients could be related to its antiviral action, lowering the viral load and thus the degree of immune system activation.
