Background and purpose: Meningitis is an infectious disease which could lead to mortality in case of outbreak in society, especially in dormitories, schools and resting houses. The aim of this study was to assess the geographical distribution of meningitis in Iran by Geographic Information System. Materials and methods: In a cross-sectional study all cases of bacterial meningitis in 30 provi...
context clinical and experimental studies have suggested a link between s100 gene expression and neoplastic disorders, however, the molecular mechanisms of this association are not well understood. the aim of this review was to conduct a comprehensive literature search in order to understand the possible underlying molecular mechanisms of this association. we also discuss their application as...
Meningitis is one of the serious complications of extra pulmonary tuberculosis (TB). TB meningitis is the most common chronic meningitis in the world. Early diagnosis and treatment of TB meningitis will decrease the probability of focal neurological defects in these patients. AFB smear and culture are the methods that routinely are used for the diagnosis of tuberculosis. Polymerase Chain Reacti...
Rheumatoid meningitis, a very rare complication, is not well-recognised, and there are few reports describing its treatment. We report the case of 74-year-old Japanese woman who was diagnosed with rheumatoid meningitis by characteristic brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) successfully treated glucocorticoids. observed fluid-attenuated inversion recovery diffusion-weighted hyperintensity, whi...
BACKGROUND Although CSF cytology and MRI are standard methods to diagnose neoplastic meningitis (NM), this complication of neoplastic disease remains difficult to detect. We therefore reevaluated the sensitivity of gadolinium (GD)-enhanced MRI and cerebrospinal-fluid (CSF)-cytology and the relevance of tumor type and CSF cell count. METHODS We retrospectively identified 111 cases of NM diagno...
Three methods are routinely used to diagnose neoplastic meningitis (NM): clinical signs and symptoms, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) cytology, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain and spine. Clinical manifestations are often subtle or may be ascribed to other cancer complications, eg, treatment-related disorders or brain parenchymal metastases. CSF cytology has a high specificity (>95%)...
background : few studies have focused on syndromic data to determine levels of alarm thresholds to detection of meningitis outbreaks. the purpose of this study was to determine threshold levels of meningitis outbreak in hamadan province, west of iran . methods : data on both confirmed and suspected cases of meningitis (fever and neurological symptom) form 21 march 2010 to 20 march 2012 were use...
meningitis is one of the hazardous and life threatening infections and is associated with mortality and morbidity. the aim of this study was to determine etiological agents of childhood bacterial meningitis. the culture, gram staining, agglutination and pcr assays were used to examine csf specimens from 277 patients with presumed bacterial meningitis for the occurrence of 4 most common infectio...
Background Febrile convulsion (FC) is the most common neurological problem in children which can occur in 2 to 5% of this population. The most important issue is to identify the cause of fever and rule out bacterial meningitis. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association of aseptic meningitis due to Measles-Mumps-Rubella (MMR) vaccine in admitted children with febrile convulsion. ...
