Complement and Its Component Fractions in Cerebrospinal Fluid in Inflammatory Cerebrospinal Diseases.
It is generally agreed that normal spinal fluid is entirely devoid of complement, but the reports of its presence in the spinal fluid in cerebrospinal diseases are contradictory. Complement was found in the spinal fluid of all cases of meningococcus meningitis by Ward and Fothergill (1), but was reported to be absent in the same diseases by others (24). Ward et al. (1, 5) found complement to be...
متن کاملCerebrospinal fluid immunoglobulins and complement in meningococcal meningitis.
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) immunoglobulins (IgA, IgG, IgM) were measured in 107 patients with meningococcal meningitis. Levels were correlated significantly with CSF total protein, and both CSF immunoglobulin and protein increased with age. C3 was measured in the CSF of 38 patients and was also closely correlated with the CSF protein level. C3 breakdown products were found in all six CSFs tested...
متن کاملEnterobius vermicularis in Cerebrospinal Fluid
Enterobius vermicularis is a nematod of large intestine in man. Extra intestinal localization of this parasite is rare. A 60 year old man was admitted to the hospital with the clinical manifestation of meningitis. In laboratory examination of cerebrospinal fluid (C.S.F), the appearance was red, Albu-min level was high and the glucose showed normal value. Haematoxylin and Eosin stained slides pr...
متن کاملApolipoproteins in human cerebrospinal fluid.
The presence of apolipoproteins A-I, E, C-II, and C-III and the absence of apolipoprotein B was demonstrated in human cerebrospinal fluid. The concentration of apolipoproteins was measured by electroimmunoassay. Apolipoproteins E, C-II, and C-III were present in cerebrospinal fluid at 3--5% of their concentration in plasma; the cerebrospinal fluid level of apolipoprotein A-I was 0.4%. Most of t...
متن کاملCerebrospinal fluid stasis and its clinical significance.
We hypothesize that stasis of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) occurs commonly and is detrimental to health. Physiologic factors affecting the normal circulation of CSF include cardiovascular, respiratory, and vasomotor influences. The CSF maintains the electrolytic environment of the central nervous system (CNS), influences systemic acid-base balance, serves as a medium for the supply of nutrient...
