Why is csf protein in newborn is high normally?
Since blood-csf barrier is not well developed in neonates protein leak from blood to csf occurs...so csf protein is high in neonates and infants...for similar reason csf protein is elevated in all meningitis due to vascular permeability...
Why RPR test not perform by csf?
The RPR (Rapid Plasma Reagin) test is a non-treponemal test used to screen for syphilis, primarily using serum rather than cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). This is because RPR detects antibodies that are typically present in the bloodstream, as they are produced in response to the infection. While CSF analysis can be useful in diagnosing neurosyphilis, RPR is not performed on CSF due to its higher sensitivity and specificity when using serum, and the complexity involved in CSF collection and analysis.
What is the major difference between the vascular system of a human and a starfish?
The major difference between the vascular system of a human and a starfish is that humans have cardio vascular system and starfish have water vascular system.
What effect does serotonin have on the vascular system?
effect of serotonin in vascular system
Why is the blockage of the ventricular system bad?
If there is a blockage of the ventricular system the flow of CSF is interrupted
What diagnostic test involves collecting a sample of CSF?
A lumbar puncture (spinal tap) is the procedure where a needle is inserted into the subarachnoid space to draw a sample of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).
Do lilies have a vascular system?
All angiosperms are vascular
What is vascular system?
A plant's vascular system consists of vascular tissue. The vascular tissue is made up of xylem (transports water) and the phloem (transports sugars and other nutrients). Another component of the vascular system is the meristems: the vascular meristem and the cork cambium, both of which are sites of growth.
Are snakes vascular?
Snakes have a circulatory system, sometimes called the vascular system.
Can a glucose test be used in the vascular system?
Yes, as that is really where you are getting glucose data from: either a blood draw or a skin 'stick'.
Where does the csf drain from subarachnoid space?
In the brain we have small protrusions of the arachnoid and subarachnoid space into the venous system. These protrusions are called arachnoid villi or arachnoid granulations and they allow for drainage of CSF into the venous system. Another source of CSF drainage is the lymphatic system.
CSF containing cavity inside the brain tissue?
The CSF-containing cavity inside the brain tissue is called the ventricular system. This system consists of four interconnected cavities (ventricles) that produce and circulate cerebrospinal fluid throughout the central nervous system. The CSF plays a crucial role in cushioning the brain, providing nutrients, and removing waste products.
