Cerebrospinal fluid corticotropin and cortisol are reduced in infantile spasms. [PDF]
Infantile spasms respond to ACTH, and levels of the hormone in cerebrospinal fluid of untreated infants with this disorder were found to be lower than in age-matched controls. In this study we analyzed cerebrospinal fluid cortisol and ACTH using improved
