Disorders of Cerebrospinal Fluid and Brain Extracellular Fluid

1973
The chemical composition of the extracellular fluid (ECF) of the brain is similar to that of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Brain ECF is inaccessible for studies in humans, and serial determinations are difficult in animals. On the other hand, CSF can be sampled serially, in vivo, without altering physical or chemical parameters.

A new principle for the determination of the extracellular fluid

Clinica Chimica Acta, 1967
Abstract A new principle is elaborated for the determination of rapidly equilibrating extracellular fluid. It is based on a simple dilution of a marker substance in a two-compartmental system. This marker substance is glucose. After rapid intravenous administration of a known amount, the maximum content of glucose in the blood stream is determined ...

Estimation of extracellular fluid volume in children

Pediatric Nephrology, 2012
Many equations have been developed to estimate various body fluid volumes from height and weight, but few have been developed for children. The aim of this study was to compare four height/weight formulae for estimating extracellular fluid volume (eECV) in children against measured extracellular fluid volume (mECV).The mECV was obtained from plasma Cr ...

The Extracellular Fluid Volume in Infants and Children

Acta Paediatrica, 1954
SummaryThe extracellular volume in fifty infants and children has been studied by a micro modification of the thiosulfate method. This technique was first tried out and it was found that determinations carried out on capillary blood gave the most consistent results.

Hyperosmolarity of the extracellular fluid in encephalitis

The American Journal of Medicine, 1953
Abstract A case is reported of encephalitis of undetermined etiology which led to severe hyperelectrolytemia and hyperosmolarity of the extracellular fluid. The causes of this condition were a primary disturbance of the central osmoregulatory mechanism, a lack of antidiuretic hormone secretion and a prolonged diuresis of relatively dilute urine ...

Cerebrospinal fluid and brain extracellular fluid in severe brain trauma

2018
Traumatic brain injury is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Pathophysiologic mechanisms of secondary brain injury are complex and still not fully understood. Cerebrospinal fluid deserves attention to detect infectious complications and to identify biomarkers of disease severity and impending secondary brain injury.

Hemodynamic role of extracellular fluid in hypertension.

Circulation Research, 1976
Plasma volume is usually lower in patients with essential hypertension than in normal subjects. Normal or expanded plasma volume in some hypertensive patients may respect either a specific hypervolemic subset of the disease or the upper end of a continuum of volume values.

Proteomics of brain extracellular fluid (ECF) and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, 2008
AbstractMass spectrometry has become the gold standard for the identification of proteins in proteomics. In this review, I will discuss the available literature on proteomic experiments that analyze human cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and brain extracellular fluid (ECF), mostly obtained by cerebral microdialysis. Both materials are of high diagnostic value
