- Abstract
- Analyzing HI tests of 110 cases of clinical Japanese Encephalitis in 1982, the following results are obtained.
1. The results of HI test are positive in 39 (35.5%), borderline positive in 19 (9.1%), negative
in 14 (12.7%) and undetermined in 47 (43.7%) cases.
2. In 49 cases of positive HI test, 14 cases reveal the positive result on the first HI test
requested in 5-27 days after the clinical onset of symptoms, and 35 cases show increasing HI
titers on the follow-up studies. There is a tendency of increasing HI titers upto 3-4 weeks of
onset and sustaining the value for more than two months.
3. In 35 cases with increasing titers on follow-up study, the highest titer is 1:80 in 5 cases,
and the half of HI negative cases maintain that value throughout the course.
4. There is no significant statistical differences in clinical characteristics, laboratory and
cerebrospinal fluid studies between the patient group of HI positive or borderline and group of
HI negative or undermined, except mean hospital day and incidence of coma and death.
