Cerebrospinal Fluid Indices in Children with Febrile Convulsion
Background and Objective: Febrile convulsions (FC) are the most common seizure disorders in children. Lumbar puncture should be considered in any case with FC who is suspected to intracranial infections. This study determined white blood cell and polymorphonuclear cell counts, protein and glucose levels in cerebrospinal fluids (CFS) of children that were hospitalized with FC. Methods: In this ...
متن کاملTaurine in cerebrospinal fluid in Friedreich's ataxia.
In a previous study we reported low values of taurine and aspartic acid in the CSF of patients with Friedreich's ataxia, when the results were compared to the literature. Further studies have revealed that unforetold difficulties with the advertised methodology of sequential multi-sample amino acid analysis were responsible for low values in the determination of these two amino acids in the sma...
متن کاملReversible airway obstruction in children with ataxia telangiectasia.
INTRODUCTION Lung disease is a significant cause of the short life span of ataxia telangiectasia (A-T) patients. Objective lung function measurements are difficult to achieve in A-T. AIM To assess lung function by spirometry in relation to the clinical characteristics of A-T patients followed up at the Israeli Ataxia Telangiectasia National Clinic. PATIENTS AND METHODS Medical and spirometr...
متن کاملAltered corticomotor-cerebellar integrity in young ataxia telangiectasia patients.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) research in identifying altered brain structure and function in ataxia-telangiectasia, an autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder, is limited. Diffusion-weighted MRI were obtained from 11 ataxia telangiectasia patients (age range, 7-22 years; mean, 12 years) and 11 typically developing age-matched participants (age range, 8-23 years; mean, 13 years). Gray...
متن کاملHuman enteroviruses in cerebrospinal fluid of children with suspected aseptic meningitis: A study in northern Iran
Background: Enterovirus (EV) infections are one of the most common causes of aseptic meningitis in pediatrics. To diagnose EV meningitis, virus isolation in cell cultures is often time consuming and lacks sensitivity to be of clinical relevance. This makes the virus culture results difficult to interpret. The rapid detection of EVs in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) by molecular diagnostic techniques...
