The Potential Contribution of the Polymerase Chain Reaction to the Diagnosis of Tuberculous Meningitis

1 Aug 1996

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To examine diagnostic utility of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) on cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in tuberculous meningitis (TBM). DESIGN: Comparison study. SETTING: Referral center for tuberculosis diagnosis and treatment in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, and research laboratory in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. PATIENTS: One hundred thirty-six consecutive patients, aged 4 months to 85 years, with features...
