- - The study focused on acute bacterial meningitis (ABM) cases in children, specifically analyzing instances without cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pleocytosis, a condition where CSF has elevated leukocyte counts.
- - Out of 4,754 ABM cases from 2001 to 2022 in France, only 173 (3.6%) lacked CSF pleocytosis, with a significant majority linked to meningococcal infections, and these cases showed a higher mortality rate (18% vs. 6%).
