The present study is aiming to assess whether there are variations in the activities of the enzymes glutamic-oxalacetic transaminase (GOT) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of children suffering from protein-energy malnutrition (PEM). In this respect, serum and CSF activities of GOT and LDH were assayed in thirteen cases suffering from kwashiorkor and ten normal cases serving as controls. Increased activities of both enzymes in sera and CSF of PEM children compared with normals were observed. The significance of these variations was discussed.
本研究旨在评估患有蛋白质 - 能量营养不良(PEM)的儿童脑脊液(CSF)中谷氨酸草酰乙酸转氨酶(GOT)和乳酸脱氢酶(LDH)的活性是否存在变化。在这方面,对13例夸希奥科病患儿和10例作为对照的正常儿童的血清及脑脊液中GOT和LDH的活性进行了测定。观察到与正常儿童相比,PEM患儿血清和脑脊液中这两种酶的活性均有所增加。并对这些变化的意义进行了讨论。
