Cerebrospinal fluid pressure in pyogenic meningitis. [PDF]
The pressure of cerebrospinal fluid taken at lumbar puncture was recorded objectively by strain gauge pressure measurement in 35 infants and children with pyogenic meningitis. Raised pressures were found in 33 children. The median pressure was 15 mm Hg (range 4-70 mm Hg) in all age groups.

Murine MPDZ-linked hydrocephalus is caused by hyperpermeability of the choroid plexus. [PDF]
Though congenital hydrocephalus is heritable, it has been linked only to eight genes, one of which is MPDZ Humans and mice that carry a truncated version of MPDZ incur severe hydrocephalus resulting in acute morbidity and lethality.

Cerebrospinal Fluid Pressure in Adults
Lumbar puncture (LP) is a widely-used investigative procedure. It allows relatively non-invasive measurement of intracranial pressure (ICP) which may have a significant impact on diagnosis and/or patient management. Over the years there has been considerable discussion about various aspects of the procedure, including what constitutes a normal opening ...
