Immunoglobulins in cerebrospinal fluid in various neurologic disorders.
We determined the concentrations of immunoglobulins A, G, and M in cerebrospinal fluid of 16 patients suffering from multiple sclerosis, 13 with non-bacterial meningitis, 10 with stroke syndrome, and 13 with epilepsy. The differences in concentrations of immunoglobulins in these groups were remarkable in the patients with multiple sclerosis, meningitis, or stroke syndrome. We propose that the d...
متن کاملInterpretation of cerebrospinal fluid protein assays in various neurologic diseases.
Albumin and immunoglobulin G (IgG) were determined in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and serum, and the CSF/serum albumin Index (CSF X 10(3)/serum albumin concentration ratio) and IgG Index [(CSF/serum IgG)/(CSF/serum albumin)] were calculated. Data for these indices and oligoclonal banding are described in 23 cases of multiple sclerosis (MS), 19 of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), eight of sarco...
متن کاملCerebrospinal fluid immunoglobulins in neurosyphilis.
Using the fluorescent treponemal antibody-absorption (FTA-ABS) test and the solid phase haemadsorption assay (SPHA) Treponema pallidum-specific IgA was found in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of patients with neurosyphilis but not in those with late latent syphilis. The presence of T pallidum-specific IgA in the CSF may inhibit the antitreponemal activity of IgG and thus play some part in the pa...
متن کاملCerebrospinal fluid immunoglobulins in children.
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) immunoglobulins were measured in 62 normal children, in 9 children with purulent meningitis, and in 10 children with presumptive viral meningitis. The mean values in normal children were IgA 0, IgM 0, and IgG 0.84 +/- 1.4 mg/100 ml (+/- SD). The mean levels of all CSF immunoglobulins were raised in acute bacterial meningitis and were significantly greater than the leve...
متن کاملEnterobius vermicularis in Cerebrospinal Fluid
Enterobius vermicularis is a nematod of large intestine in man. Extra intestinal localization of this parasite is rare. A 60 year old man was admitted to the hospital with the clinical manifestation of meningitis. In laboratory examination of cerebrospinal fluid (C.S.F), the appearance was red, Albu-min level was high and the glucose showed normal value. Haematoxylin and Eosin stained slides pr...
