The analysis of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is described as the central nervous system equivalent of the complete blood count and the analogy is a good one. A CSF analysis provides a general index of neurologic health, and it often provides evidence of the presence of disease. Similar to a complete blood count, CSF analysis has reasonable sensitivity but

ABSTRACT C‐truncating variants in the charged multivesicular body protein 2B (CHMP2B) gene are a rare cause of frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD), previously identified only in Denmark, Belgium, and China. We report a novel CHMP2B splice‐site variant (c.35‐1G>A) associated with familial FTLD in Spain. The cases were two monozygotic male twins who

Mathematical pressure volume models of the cerebrospinal fluid [PDF]
Numerous mathematical models have emerged in the medical literature over the past two decades attempting to characterize the pressure and volume dynamics the central nervous system compartment. These models have been used to study he behavior of this compartment under such pathological clinical conditions s hydrocephalus, head injury and brain edema ...

This chapter discusses the anatomy, functions, and biochemistry of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). CSF has four major functions: physical support of neural structures, excretion and “sink” action, intracerebral transport, and control of the chemical environment of the central nervous system.

Diagnostic Challenge in Frontal Variant Alzheimer's Disease With Low Amyloid‐β PET Retention
ABSTRACT Diagnosing frontal variant Alzheimer's disease (fvAD) is difficult and could be even more difficult when amyloid‐beta (Aβ) PET retention is low. A 63‐year‐old woman presenting with a 3‐year history of apathy and memory impairment showed executive dysfunction, memory impairment, and severe bilateral frontotemporal atrophy on MRI.

Epitope Mapping of Anti‐Neurofascin 155 Antibody in a Large Cohort of Autoimmune Nodopathy Patients
ABSTRACT Objective Autoimmune nodopathy (AN), a newly recognized disease entity, is an immune‐mediated polyneuropathy involving autoantibodies against cell adhesion molecules located in nodes of Ranvier and paranodal regions, such as neurofascin 186 (NF186) and neurofascin 155 (NF155). The present study aimed to identify the epitopes for autoantibodies
