Abnormalities of cerebrospinal fluid amino-acids in purulent meningitis
AUTOR(ES)
Corston, R. N.
RESUMO
Serial measurements were made of the cerebrospinal fluid and plasma amino-acid concentrations in 12 patients with purulent meningitis. Marked increases in the concentrations of most CSF amino-acids were found, possibly caused by altered transport mechanisms in the inflamed meninges and choroid plexuses.
