[Intracellular metabolism and leukocyte functional activity in patients with meningitis of various etiologies].
Cytochemistries were made in 55 patients with meningitides of different etiology to study the functional metabolic activity of neutrophil leukocytes. At the same time consistent and different changes were discovered in the content of glycogen and cationic protein, in the activity of acid and alkaline phosphatase and myeloperoxidase as well as in the indicators of the NBT test, depending on the etiology, stage, gravity and the character of complications. In patients afflicted with meningitides, different degree of the activity of intracellular components and of the indicators of the NBT test characterizes nonspecific responsiveness and is of differential-diagnostic importance.
