An ELISA system for measuring antibodies to nonstructural protein 1 (NS1) of Japanese encephalitis virus has already been established. This system uses an ELISA diluent containing casein, instead of bovine serum albumin (BSA). During a survey, we found that 21 (21%) of 102 children aged 1-5 years,
OBJECTIVE
Low serum levels of bilirubin and albumin are associated with multiple autoimmune diseases, but their role in anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (anti-NMDAR) encephalitis is unknown.
METHODS
Serum bilirubin and albumin levels were evaluated in 60 patients with anti-NMDAR encephalitis, 50
There is no known biomarker that predicts the response to immune therapy in autoimmune synaptic encephalitis. Thus, we investigated serum albumin as a prognostic biomarker of early immune therapies in patients with autoimmune encephalitis. We enrolled patients who were diagnosed with definite
The capacity of some chemically treated porous glass to adsorb tissue culture virus of tick-borne encephalitis was studied. Chemical binding of albumin and succinanhydride with the porous glass matrix was found to eliminate virion adsorption on the carrier surface. This permitted to carry out gel
A sensitive and specific radioimmunosorbent assay for serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) IgG antibodies against Herpesvirus simplex has been evaluated as an early diagnostic test for herpes encephalitis. When combined with the measurement of albumin in serum and CSF as accurate diagnostic index was
A 59-year-old female patient with atypical chronic herpes simplex encephalitis was reported. Initial symptom was persistent myoclonus involving the trunk and limb muscles, and later lateral gaze palsy to the left side, cerebellar ataxia, consciousness disturbance and other brainstem symptoms
Alterations of cerebrospinal fluid (CFS) proteins and cells and blood-brain barrier impairment were determined in 4 patients with proven and 2 patients with presumptive herpes simplex virus encephalitis ( HSVE ) using simultaneous nephelometric measurements of CSF and serum albumin and
This study was undertaken to modify and develop procedures for tissue culture-inactivated Japanese B encephalitis (JBE) virus vaccine production in large quantities. Various types of glass bottles were tried and, considering many advantages, long cylindrical roller (CR) bottles were selected.
Alzheimer's disease (AD), the prevalent dementia in the elderly, involves many related and interdependent pathologies that manifests simultaneously, eventually leading to cognitive impairment and death. No treatment is currently available; however, an agent addressing several key pathologies
Japanese encephalitis (JE) is an important viral zoonotic disease in Asia, especially in rural and suburban areas where rice cultivation and pig farming coexist. Pigs serve as a suitable sentinel model, the surveillance of which could predict a potential JE outbreak in human population in the
Virusencephalitis is characterised by clinical symptoms of a parenchymatous inflammation. In addition, early mental status changes often occur as a result of virusencephalitis, beside focal neurological deficiencies, epileptic seizures, cerebral compression, even coma. Other pathological
Data regarding delirium in patients presenting with infections of the central nervous system, such as meningitis and/or encephalitis (ME), are scarce. We aimed to determine the frequency and early predictors of delirium in the acute phase of ME.We assessed
