Sixteen out of eighteen meningeal carcinomas (89%) secreted carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) into the cerebrospinal fluid, where it could be quantified separately from the portion originating from the circulating blood. The discrimination of both fractions was performed according to an empirical appro

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) arginine vasopressin (AVP) levels are reported in a group of 22 children (median age 24 months) investigated for possible bacterial meningitis and subsequently found not to be suffering from this disease. The mean CSF AVP concentration was 0.80 +/- 0.33 pg/ml. The results o
Plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) concentrations of indomethacin have been determined in 52 patients hospitalized for nerve-root compression pain. Samples of blood and CSF were collected at the same time in each subject, 0.5 to 12 h after a single intramuscular injection of 50 mg indomethacin. An
