[The cerebro-spinal fluid: chemical values for diagnosis of meningitis (author's transl)].
We describe the chemical values of the normal cerebro-spinal fluid and any variation during meningitis. We also refere the physical peculiarity and the variations of non-proteins-nitrogen, of enzymes, of glucose and its metabolites, of proteins and cells. On the picture we resume the most significative variation for differential diagnosis among bacterial, viral and tuberculous meningitis.
