OBJECTIVE To study the changes in the epidemiology of bacterial meningitis in the era of the Hemophilus influenzae (H. influenzae) type b vaccine and pneumoccous resistance. METHODS Retrospective study which included patients admitted to Hamad Medical Corporation, Doha, Qatar between January 1998 through to December 2000 with positive cerebrospinal fluid culture. RESULTS Thirty-seven patien...
We performed a prospective observational study to evaluate the utility of measuring inflammatory cytokine levels to discriminate bacterial meningitis from similar common pediatric diseases. Inflammatory cytokine levels and other cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) physicochemical indicators were evaluated in 140 patients who were diagnosed with bacterial meningitis via microbiological culture or PCR assa...

Recurrent pyogenic meningitis is uncommon. Its aetiology is often associated with impaired host defence mechanisms. Two such examples are discussed. Case 1 resulted from an anatomical defect and Case 2 a defect of the complement system.
Meningitis occurs mostly in previously fit young people and, because it causes significant mortality and morbidity, must be recognised and treated promptly. Overall, the mortality of bacterial meningitis in adults is 25%, with significant sequelae of disease including deafness and cognitive loss.1 In bacterial meningitis, the first step in pathogenesis is colonisation of the nasopharynx, follow...
Cefuroxime (25 mg/kg) given intravenously every four hours to 7 children with bacterial meningitis resulted in satisfactory therapeutic blood and CSF levels. All children made a full recovery and side effects were absent.
An immunocompetent adult presenting with acellular pneumococcal meningitis is a rare occurrence and may pose a diagnostic challenge.
Serogroup X meningococci (NmX) historically have caused sporadic and clustered meningitis cases in sub-Saharan Africa. To study recent NmX epidemiology, we analyzed data from population-based, sentinel and passive surveillance, and outbreak investigations of bacterial meningitis in Togo and Burkina Faso during 2006-2010. Cerebrospinal fluid specimens were analyzed by PCR. In Togo during 2006-20...
