Giant Subdural Abscess After Head Trauma

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Infected subdural hematoma caused by hematogenous bacterial seeding is a rare entity that is difficult to distinguish from hemorrhagic progression on CT. Clinicians should consider secondary infection of subdural collections in patients with bacteremia and pursue prompt drainage when unexplained enlargement is observed.

Diagnostic Value of Inflammatory Biomarkers in Bacterial Meningitis: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Bacterial meningitis (BM) is a potentially life‐threatening condition that could rapidly progress to permanent brain damage, neurologic complications, or even death. Diagnostic tools to distinguish between BM and aseptic meningitis (AM) are essential to target the appropriate treatment to patients at great risk and concurrently ...
