Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the changes and clinical significance of neuron specific enolase (NSE) and S-100β protein levels in cerebrospinal fluid of children with viral encephalitis and meningitis.Methods:Sixty children with viral encephalitis and meningitis admitted to The Second Hospital of Jiaxing from February 2018 to December 2020 were included in the observation group. An additional 30 children without central nervous system diseases who concurrently received treatment in the same hospital were included in the control group. The value of NSE and S-100β protein levels in the diagnosis and treatment of viral encephalitis and meningitis in chiblren were analyzed.Results:NSE and S-100β protein levels in the observation group were (17.683 ± 1.321) μg/L and (1.755 ± 0.129) μg/L, respectively, which were significantly higher than (5.267 ± 0.907) μg/L and (0.827 ± 0.172) μg/L in the control group ( t = 46.25, 28.65, both P < 0.001). NSE and S-100β protein levels in children with mild viral encephalitis and meningitis were (15.219 ± 0.870) μg/L and (1.456 ± 0.113) μg/L, respectively, which were significantly lower than (19.893 ± 1.066) μg/L and (2.014 ± 0.085) μg/L in children with severe viral encephalitis and meningitis ( t = -18.69, -21.32, both P < 0.001). In children with viral encephalitis and meningitis, NSE and S-100β protein levels during the acute phase were (17.250 ± 1.188) μg/L and (1.683 ± 0.096) μg/L, respectively, which were significantly higher than (11.150 ± 0.971) μg/L and (1.147 ± 0.098) μg/L during the convalescence phase ( t = 30.79, 30.27, both P < 0.001). Conclusion:NSE and S-100β protein levels in cerebrospinal fluid of children with viral encephalitis and meningitis can help evaluate the severity of viral encephalitis and meningitis in children, providing important clinical application value for judging the development and prognosis of viral encephalitis and meningitis.
