lactic acid and Tuberculosis, Meningeal

lactic acid has been researched along with Tuberculosis, Meningeal in 18 studies

Lactic Acid: A normal intermediate in the fermentation (oxidation, metabolism) of sugar. The concentrated form is used internally to prevent gastrointestinal fermentation. (From Stedman, 26th ed)
2-hydroxypropanoic acid : A 2-hydroxy monocarboxylic acid that is propanoic acid in which one of the alpha-hydrogens is replaced by a hydroxy group.

Tuberculosis, Meningeal: A form of bacterial meningitis caused by MYCOBACTERIUM TUBERCULOSIS or rarely MYCOBACTERIUM BOVIS. The organism seeds the meninges and forms microtuberculomas which subsequently rupture. The clinical course tends to be subacute, with progressions occurring over a period of several days or longer. Headache and meningeal irritation may be followed by SEIZURES, cranial neuropathies, focal neurologic deficits, somnolence, and eventually COMA. The illness may occur in immunocompetent individuals or as an OPPORTUNISTIC INFECTION in the ACQUIRED IMMUNODEFICIENCY SYNDROME and other immunodeficiency syndromes. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, pp717-9)

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Bacterial meningitis and tubercular meningitis are still neurological emergencies characterized by severe mortality and morbidity."2.48[Revival of old diagnostic markers in the cerebrospinal fluid for the detection of infectious meningitis]. ( Sakushima, K; Sasaki, H; Yabe, I, 2012)
"Scrub typhus is one of the most common causes of meningo-encephalitis in endemic areas of the Indian subcontinent."1.62Is cerebrospinal fluid lactate useful in differentiating scrub typhus meningitis from aseptic, bacterial and tuberculous meningitis? ( Abhilash, KPP; Arora, S; Gunasekharan, K; Hazra, D; Mitra, S; Yesudass, P, 2021)
"TBM causes hydrocephalus, cerebral edema, increased intracranial pressure, global ischemia, and neurologic deficits, which disturb cellular metabolism and increase lactate levels."1.48Correlation of Lactate Concentration in Peripheral Plasma and Cerebrospinal Fluid with Glasgow Outcome Scale for Patients with Tuberculous Meningitis Complicated by Acute Hydrocephalus Treated with Fluid Diversions. ( Arief, G; Arifin, MZ; Faried, A; Nataprawira, HM, 2018)
"Diagnosis of tubercular meningitis (TBM) continues to be a clinical challenge and available microbiological tests fail to attain the required accuracy standards."1.48Cerebrospinal Fluid Lactate in Tubercular Meningitis: Diagnostic or Prognostic Marker? ( Fatma, J; Gupta, M; Karoli, R; Siddiqi, MS; Siddiqi, Z; Singhal, V, 2018)
"However, distinction between untreated pyogenic meningitis and virus meningitis is rarely problematic in clinical practice, so routine use of the test as an emergency procedure offers no extra advantage."1.27How useful is cerebrospinal fluid lactate estimation in differential diagnosis of meningitis? ( Dunbar, EM; Hooper, J; Mandal, BK; Parker, L, 1983)
