Article in English | IMSEAR | ID: sea-91860
ABSTRACT
Seventy-two patients suffering from meningo-encephalitis were studied, clinically, biochemically, microbiologically and virologically. Evidence of rising titre in serum and CSF of antibodies to Japanese encephalitis were present in 50% of cases, and recent past infection in 20% of cases. Cranial nerve involvement particularly the "8th" was present in 70% of cases though there was a 2.5% involvement of the 2nd, 3rd and 6th nerves. All the patients belonged to plain Tribal population and all had a history of eating pork 7-10 days prior to development of the infection.
