Correlation of the IgG index and oligoclonal bands in the CSF of patients with multiple sclerosis
Klíčová slova oligoklonální pásy – mozkomíšní mok – IgG index – roztroušená skleróza Abstract Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the correlation between IgG index values and the number of the oligoclonal IgG bands (OCB) in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). Material and Methods: The set of 150 patients consisted of 41 males and 109 females (aged ...
متن کاملCSF -- oligoclonal bands in multiple sclerosis.
The present paper is concerned with a correlation between clinical parameters of multiple sclerosis and different agar gel electrophoretical patterns in CSF. The agar gel electrophoresis represents clearly the most sensitive method for the demonstration of oligoclonal bands in CSF.
متن کاملCaesarean section in a patient with torsion dystonia.
We present a case of torsion dystonia in a 35-yr-old primigravida who presented for a Caesarean section under general anaesthesia. She had limb contractures and severe kyphoscoliosis associated with limited respiratory reserve and function. General anaesthesia was induced using thiopental and divided doses of mivacurium for rapid sequence induction. After the delivery of a healthy male baby, sh...
متن کاملAssociation of Genetic Markers with CSF Oligoclonal Bands in Multiple Sclerosis Patients
OBJECTIVE to explore the association between genetic markers and Oligoclonal Bands (OCB) in the Cerebro Spinal Fluid (CSF) of Italian Multiple Sclerosis patients. METHODS We genotyped 1115 Italian patients for HLA-DRB1*15 and HLA-A*02. In a subset of 925 patients we tested association with 52 non-HLA SNPs associated with MS susceptibility and we calculated a weighted Genetic Risk Score. Final...
متن کاملOptimizing detection of oligoclonal bands in cerebrospinal fluid by use of isoelectric focusing with IgG immunoblotting.
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is difficult to diagnose using clinical evidence alone, especially early in the course of the disease. Yet, the importance of early detection is increasing because immunomodulatory therapy is believed to be most beneficial early in the disease process.1 MS is first suspected when recurrent clinical symptoms point to local destruction of myelin in at least 2 anatomic loca...
