Oligoclonal bands (OCBs) represent the presence of intrathecal immunoglobulin G (IgG) as detected by isoelectric focusing and immunofixation. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysed alongside a paired serum sample gives five different immunofixation patterns. These are: type 1-the normal physiological state with no intrathecal IgG synthesis; type 2-evidence for intrathecal IgG synthesis, with CSF-restricted OCBs; type 3-evidence for intrathecal IgG synthesis, with CSF-restricted OCBs, but with additional, identical bands in the CSF and serum; type 4-absence of intrathecal IgG synthesis, but with identical OCBs in CSF and serum; and type 5-absence of intrathecal IgG synthesis, with a monoclonal band in CSF and serum. Analysis of these patterns can help to diagnose a range of neurological conditions, including multiple sclerosis. However, it is important to interpret OCB results alongside other CSF tests and their clinical context.
期刊介绍:
The essential point of Practical Neurology is that it is practical in the sense of being useful for everyone who sees neurological patients and who wants to keep up to date, and safe, in managing them. In other words this is a journal for jobbing neurologists - which most of us are for at least part of our time - who plough through the tension headaches and funny turns week in and week out. Primary research literature potentially relevant to routine clinical practice is far too much for any neurologist to read, let alone understand, critically appraise and assimilate. Therefore, if research is to influence clinical practice appropriately and quickly it has to be digested and provided to neurologists in an informative and convenient way.
