Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the relationship between the concentration of nitric oxide (NO) and cytological change in cerebrospinal fluid ( CSF ) and the onset of neurocysticercosis in patients. . Methods. NO Level in CSF was detected in 30 cases of neurocysticercosis, 20 cases of tuberculous meningitis (TBM) and 20 healthy people as control by using Griess method. The cytological components in CSF were also examined.. Results and Conclusion . Griess method was proved to be a rapid and accurate technique for the detection of NO content in CSF. The NO concentration in cases of neurocysticercosis and TBM was significantly higher than that of control(P
