Genetic polymorphisms associated with the inflammatory response in bacterial meningitis
BACKGROUND: Bacterial meningitis (BM) is an infectious disease that results in high mortality and morbidity. Despite efficacious antibiotic therapy, neurological sequelae are often observed in patients after disease. Currently, the main challenge in BM treatment is to develop adjuvant therapies that...
