The aim of the study was to determine the serum level of homocysteine in children with neuroinfections.Mаterials and methods: A blood serum assay of 60 children with viral and bacterial neuroinfections was performed using the enzyme immunoassay to evaluate homocysteinemia as a marker of endothelial dysfunction.Results: In interpreting the results, the average level of hyperhomocysteinemia in patients with bacterial and viral neuroinfections was established. The highest homocysteine levels in serum were observed in bacterial neuroinfections, especially in the presence of signs of meningoencephalitis and pneumococcal etiology of the disease. Dependence of changes in the level of homocysteinemia from the sex of sick children was not revealed.Conclusion: Neuroinfections in children, regardless of the cause, are accompanied by hyperhomocysteinemia, indicating the presence of endothelial activation in this pathology, more pronounced in the case of a bacterial etiology of the infectious process and the combined lesion of the soft dura mater and the brain substance. |
