Cerebrospinal Fluid and Central Nervous System Cytology 2019-05-31 .txt text/plain 12646 768 46 45, 46 In a recent study of 106 canine CSF samples without pleocytosis (TNCC <5/μL) but containing at least 500 RBCs/μL, the mean percentage of neutrophils (45.2% versus 5.7%), percentage of samples with eosinophils present (36.8% versus 6.8%), and mean protein concentration (40 mg/dL versus 26 mg/dL) were found to be significantly increased in the samples with blood contamination when compared with controls. 4 A study of cats with CNS cryptococcosis showed organisms in 9 of 11 of the CSF samples, and a majority of cases (9 of 10) had neutrophilic pleocytosis and increased protein concentration (8 of 10). A case series of five cats showed CSF ranging from normal to marked neutrophilic pleocytosis with moderately elevated protein concentration and variable correlation to clinical outcome. 85 A study of eight dogs with natural infection (confirmed by CNS tissue-PCR and histopathology) showed lymphocytic pleocytosis in all samples and normal protein concentrations. ./cache/cord-021772-5v4gor2v.txt ./txt/cord-021772-5v4gor2v.txt
