Delays in the laboratory examination of cerebrospinal fluid are commonly encountered in clinical medicine. The present studies were designed to evaluate changes in cerebrospinal fluid leukocyte counts relative to time elapsed before analysis. Neutrophil counts decreased most rapidly, being 68 +/- 10% (standard error of the mean) and 50 +/- 12% of initial values at 1 and 2 h, respectively. Lymphocyte and monocyte numbers were not significantly altered until 3 h.
临床医学中经常会遇到脑脊液实验室检查的延迟情况。本研究旨在评估脑脊液白细胞计数相对于分析前经过时间的变化。中性粒细胞计数下降最快,在1小时和2小时时分别为初始值的68±10%(均值标准误)和50±12%。淋巴细胞和单核细胞数量直到3小时才出现显著变化。
