IgG-index predicts neurological morbidity in patients with infectious central nervous system diseases
BACKGROUND Prognosis assessment of patients with infectious and neoplastic disorders of the central nervous system (CNS) may still pose a challenge. In this retrospective cross-sectional study the prognostic value of basic cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) parameters in patients with bacterial meningitis, viral meningoencephalitis and leptomeningeal metastases were evaluated. METHODS White blood cell...
متن کاملInfectious diseases of the central nervous system.
Neurologic disease is seen commonly in cats, with infectious causes accounting for 30-45% of cases. However, since a specific infection cannot be identified in 12-40% of these cases, it is essential that we try to understand these cases better in the hope that we can eventually identify the cause(s), and so determine how best to treat and/or prevent them.
متن کاملNanomaterial applications for neurological diseases and central nervous system injury.
The effectiveness of noninvasive treatment for neurological disease is generally limited by the poor entry of therapeutic agents into the central nervous system (CNS). Most CNS drugs cannot permeate into the brain parenchyma because of the blood-brain barrier thus, overcoming this problem has become one of the most significant challenges in the development of neurological therapeutics. Nanotech...

If a patient suffers from neurological symptoms, lots of differential diagnoses have to be considered. The following article is organized according to the different pathogens: bacteria, viruses, protozoa and fungi. Learn and repeat everything from the approach from acute bacterial meningitis to virallytriggered CNS infections with HSV, ESME, VZV and CMV, and to opportunistic infections in immun...
