Early detection of cerebrospinal fluid/serum glucose ratio: A promising value for mortality prognosis in patients with acute bacterial meningitis

Journal of General and Family Medicine, EarlyView.
This study revealed that a glucometer‐based measurement significantly improved the turnaround time required for CSF/serum glucose ratio measurement compared to conventional laboratory tests, which could be considered a reliable aid to the mortality prognosis.

Continuous, noninvasive wireless monitoring of flow of cerebrospinal fluid through shunts in patients with hydrocephalus

npj Digital Medicine, 2020
Hydrocephalus is a common disorder caused by the buildup of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the brain. Treatment typically involves the surgical implantation of a pressure-regulated silicone tube assembly, known as a shunt.
