Cytokines and the central nervous system
Brain Research Bulletin, 2001Cytokines are involved both in the immune response and in controlling various events in the central nervous system, that is, they are equally immunoregulators and modulators of neural functions and neuronal survival. On the other hand, cytokine production is under the tonic control of the peripheral and the central nervous system and the cytokine ...

CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM TUBERCULOSIS
Neurologic Clinics, 1999Involvement of the central nervous system (CNS) by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, particularly meningitis, is the most severe form of tuberculous infection. Parenchymal CNS involvement can occur in the form of tuberculoma or, more rarely, abscess. Although surgery was initially advocated as the mainstay of therapy, more recent evidence suggests that ...

Monitoring of the central nervous system
Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology, 1994Clinical studies have shown a close relationship between variables such as hypoxia, increased intracranial pressure, arterial hypotension, or seizures and neurological outcome. This indicates the need for monitoring techniques of the central nervous system including measurements of cerebral blood flow, cerebral oxygenation and neuronal function ...
