Abstract

In some infectious diseases, pathogenic microorganisms can directly or indirectly cause significant inflammatory reactions in the central nervous system, leading to severe neurological dysfunction, such as suppurative meningitis, tuberculous meningitis, and febrile infections. related epilepsy syndrome, etc. In these diseases, adjuvant administration of glucocorticoids is necessary to inhibit the release of proinflammatory cytokines, and intrathecal administration can deliver the drug more directly to the target. In this article, the authors studied intrathecal glucocorticoids for the treatment of infectious inflammatory reactions in terms of pharmacological effects and mechanisms, pharmacokinetics, clinical application, and safety. The authors concluded that the article could help provide new treatment strategies for infectious diseases.
