Cerebral cysticercosis (CC) is a common cause of seizures and other central nervous system disorders in the Mexican-American population. The elevation of serum IgE in many parasitic diseases led us to study CSF and serum IgE in patients with CC diagnosed by pathologic, radiologic or clinical criteria. A paper disc radioimmunoassay, sensitive to 0.01 IU/ml, was used to measure CSF and serum IgE in 69 patients. The mean CSF IgE level in Mexicans with CC was 0.44 IU/ml compared to 0.28 IU/ml in Mexicans without CC and 0.07 IU/ml in non-Mexicans without CC.
脑囊尾蚴病（CC）是墨西哥裔美国人癫痫发作和其他中枢神经系统疾病的常见病因。许多寄生虫病中血清IgE升高促使我们研究经病理、放射学或临床标准诊断为CC的患者的脑脊液和血清IgE。采用对0.01 IU/ml敏感的纸碟放射免疫分析法检测69例患者的脑脊液和血清IgE。患CC的墨西哥人的脑脊液IgE平均水平为0.44 IU/ml，未患CC的墨西哥人是0.28 IU/ml，未患CC的非墨西哥人是0.07 IU/ml。
