| medicine | the adenosine deaminase activity in the cerebrospinal fluid is a good tool for early initiation of anti-tuberculous therapy while waiting for definite confirmation. A simple algorithm is identified that combines adenosine deaminase activity and some readily available biochemical parameters in cerebrospinal fluid, adenosine deaminase above 11.5 U/l + glucose above 65 mg/dl + leukocytes aboved 13.5 cell/mm3, as the better predictor to guide prompt initiation of anti-tuberculous therapy and should be considered in patients with low prevalence of tuberculosis | Homo sapiens |
