Cerebrospinal fluid nerve growth factor and total protein concentration in the children with meningitis
Meningitis is one of the most common infectious cerebral nervous system (CNS), defined as an inflammation of the meninges. It is clinically categorized into a chronic and acute based on the acuity of symptoms. Vomiting, bulging fontanel and fever are the main symptoms in the patients with meningitis. Bacterial meningitis is a severe, potentially life-threatening infection that is associated wit...

متن کاملLeptin in cerebrospinal fluid from children: correlation with plasma leptin, sexual dimorphism, and lack of protein binding.
BACKGROUND Previous studies in adults have established that leptin is present at very low concentrations in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), but few data exist concerning CSF leptin in children. Current evidence suggests that CSF leptin concentrations interact with hypothalamic centers controlling food intake. Serum leptin concentrations manifest a sexual dimorphism that arises during puberty. METH...
متن کاملEstimation of reference intervals for total protein in cerebrospinal fluid.
Protein in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) was measured by a modified biuret procedure and in two automated instruments, the Du Pont aca and the Kodak Ektachem. The latter's dry-slide reagent was also evaluated for precision, linearity, and effect of potential interferents. In vitro, ampicillin and vancomycin increase the apparent value for CSF protein as measured with the Ektachem slides. We exclude...
متن کاملSexual dimorphism in skeletal muscle protein turnover.
Skeletal muscle is the major constituent of lean body mass and essential for the body's locomotor function. Women have less muscle mass (and more body fat) than men and are therefore not able to exert the same absolute maximal force as men. The difference in body composition between the sexes is evident from infancy but becomes most marked after puberty (when boys experience an accelerated grow...
