Results: CSF procalcitonin level in bacterial meningitis was significantly higher than viral meningitis (1.72卤0.9 ng/ml and 0.71卤0.04ng/ml respectively,Pvalue= 0.00). A serum procalcitonin level >0.5 ng/ml had high sensitivity and specificity ( 90.1% and 97.1% respectively) in the diagnosis ...

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...
