Detection of 14‐3‐3 protein in the cerebrospinal fluid supports the diagnosis of Creutzfeldt‐Jakob disease

TL;DR: CSF analysis for 14‐3‐3 protein should thus be performed in any case suspect for CJD, as false‐positive results in a single CSF analysis were seen in patients with herpes simplex encephalitis, hypoxic brain damage, atypical enphalitis, intracerebral metastases of a bronchial carcinoma, metabolic encephalopathy, and progressive dementia of unknown cause.
Journal ArticleDOI

CSF tests in the differential diagnosis of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease.

TL;DR: The detection of elevated levels of brain-derived proteins in the CSF in patients with suspected Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease is a valuable diagnostic test and a second lumbar puncture may be of value in patientswith atypical clinical course in whom the first test was negative.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular genetics of human prion diseases in Germany.

TL;DR: This large study on suspect cases of human prions diseases in Germany clearly shows that PRNP genetics is essential for a comprehensive analysis of prion diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Current clinical diagnosis in Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease: identification of uncommon variants.

TL;DR: The widening spectrum of diagnostic techniques in CJD is not only useful in the increased accuracy of the clinical diagnosis but should also lead to the identification of more atypical cases of sporadic CJD.
