cerebrospinal fluid thyrotropin

TSH is a glycoprotein consisting of two subunits, synthesized by pituitary basophils with a molecular weight of 28,000 Daltons, which promotes thyroid synthesis and secretion of thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). The concentration of TSH in CSF was positively correlated with blood, and the former accounted for 54% of the latter. Basic Information Specialist classification: examination classification: cerebrospinal fluid examination Applicable gender: whether men and women apply fasting: fasting Analysis results: Below normal: No relevant information. Normal value: Cerebrospinal fluid thyrotropin: 1.16-2.08mU/L Above normal: Seen in the saddle of esophageal eosinophilic expansion and pituitary basophilic saddle expansion, pituitary chromoblastoma, cerebellar medulloblastoma, acoustic neuroma, lung cancer brain metastasis, hypothyroidism. negative: Positive: Tips: After collecting CSF, centrifuge to precipitate, and take the supernatant for free storage. Normal value 13 to 64 years old 1.62 ± 0.46mU / L. Clinical significance Pituitary eosinophilic saddle-upper expansion and pituitary basophilic aneurysm expansion, pituitary chromoblastoma, cerebellar medulloblastoma, acoustic neuroma, lung cancer brain metastasis, hypothyroidism, elevated TSH in CSF. Elevated levels of TSH in CSF are positively correlated with blood levels. High results may be diseases: hypothyroidism in the elderly, precautions for acoustic neuroma After collecting CSF, the precipitate was centrifuged, and the supernatant was frozen and stored. Inspection process Use radioimmunoassay. Not suitable for the crowd 1, intracranial hypertension caused by various reasons, especially those with optic nerve head edema. 2, lumbar tuberculosis or puncture site infection. 3, the whole body condition is not allowed to puncture. Adverse reactions and risks If the patient has symptoms such as breathing, pulse, or abnormal color during puncture, stop the operation immediately and deal with it accordingly.
