Osmotic pressure of serum and cerebrospinal fluid in patients with suspected neurological conditions

Interstitial fluid movement in the brain parenchyma has been suggested to contribute to sustaining the metabolism in brain parenchyma and maintaining the function of neurons and glial cells. The pulsatile hydrostatic pressure gradient may be one of the driving forces of this bulk flow. However, osmo...
