[Effect of the prolonged use of streptomycin as well as streptomycin in combination with tubazid on the bioelectrical activity of the brain in experimental tuberculosis].
The effect of streptomycin used alone and in combination with tubazid on the brain electric activity was studied in chronic experiments on rabbits with tuberculosis. The electrocorticographical investigations showed that the antibacterial treatment lowered the spontaneous electric activity and reactive capacity of the cortex. It was evident from a narrow amplitude of the main rythm, coefficient and energy of synchronization on rythmic photostimulation and paroxysmal activity withing the theta range. With the account of the high therapeutic effect of the antibacterial treatment evident from minimum affection of the organs with tuberculosis, the above changes in the electrocorticogrammes should be attributed to the neurotropic effect of the drug and not to tuberculosis intoxication.
