(1) HIV infection, meningitis, brain abscess, prion diseases, cerebral malaria, brain tumor, or a diagnosis of a non-infectious central nervous system disease, such as acute demyelinating encephalomyelitis (ADEM). (2) Patients with laboratory evidence of infectious encephalitis, e.g. viral, ...
These scientific findings, pertaining to discordance of viral loads between the CSF and periphery in well-controlled patients on ART, present a unique opportunity to study the molecular mechanisms involved in CNS reservoir establishment, compartmentalisation, persistence and resurgence. Studying molecular ...

Bacterial, specifically worry about acute bacterial meningitis Normal CSF glucose level 40-70 mg Significantly decreased CSF glucose with increase WBC, high neutrophils Bacterial meningitis CSF glucose increased in? - Diabetic hyperglycemia- Increased serum gluco...
After the findings are similar to migraine pathophysiology, symptomatic explanation secondary to aseptic meningitis due to viral or inflammatory etiology has been a research target. For example, investigation pertains to autoimmune cross-reactivity between inflammatory or viral disease-causing autoantibod...

Meningitis itself can be divided into bacterial, viral which presents more acutely and the granulomatous type which include tubercular and fungal predominantly. Diagnosis of meningitis depends predominantly on cerebrospinal fluid analysis. The morbidity and mortality due to meningitis still remains very ...
