TL;DR: The most important factors influencing mortality from intracranial abscess were the age and neurological condition of the patient at the time of admission and chronic suppurative otitis media, which was the most common predisposing factor for temporal lobe infections.

TL;DR: Tuberculous brain abscess always poses a diagnostic dilemma and ZN stain and conventional microbiological culture for Mycobacteria always help to solve this dilemma, and In vitro Proton MR Spectroscopy also seems to have the diagnostic utility.

TL;DR: The potential of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy for providing a fingerprint within the proton spectrum of six genera belonging to anaerobes reflecting their characteristic metabolites has been investigated and MR-based identification was of value in the identification of anaerobe.

TL;DR: It was observed that it was possible to differentiate bacterial and tuberculous brain abscesses using in vitro in vitro Proton Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy and it was also possible to distinguish between aerobic and anaerobic brainAbscesses on the basis of spectral patterns.

TL;DR: A new technique, Proton Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (1 HNMR) is evaluated for the direct detection of anaerobes from clinical specimens and NMR correlated well with culture and the traditional GLC which is usually used for the rapid detection.
