Abstract:
Viral encephalitis is one of the major neurological emergency and critical diseases. The clinical classification of encephalitis is an important basis for clinical etiological diagnosis. Virus nucleic acid detection of cerebrospinal fluid is the main diagnostic experiment of viral encephalitis, including polymerase chain reaction and metagenome next-generation sequencing. Specific antiviral drugs are effective for some types of viral encephalitis, and new therapeutic regimes need to be explored.
