Acquired Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathies: Clinical and Electrodiagnostic
The acquired demyelinating polyneuropathies include acute (AIDP, Guillain-Barre syndrome, GBS) and chronic (CIDP, dysproteinemic) forms which differ primarily in their temporal profile. They are inflammatory-demyelinating diseases of the peripheral nervous System and likely have an immunologic pathogenesis. Although these neuropathies usually have a characteristic presentation, the electromyogr...
متن کاملCerebrospinal 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 کاملA procedure for the determination of cerebrospinal fluid total protein and gamma globulin in neurologic disorders.
ELEVATION of the y-globulin concentration in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and other neurologic disorders has been reported (1-3). Expression of the y-globulin values in milligrams per hundred milliliters does not reveal whether this increase is due to a general elevation of total protein or y-globuin alone. Determinations of both y-globulin and total protei...
متن کاملAssessment of a biuret method without concentration step for total protein determination in cerebrospinal fluid.
E xamination of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) total protein is used chiefly to detect increased permeabili ty of the blood-brain barrier to plasma proteins or increased intrathecal secretion of immunoglobulins (1). A rapid and quite precise method is required. The biuret method is considered as a potential reference method for total protein determination in biological fluids (2-4). It has been modi...
