ABSTRACT:
Delirium and its
relation to biochemical markers have been considered a study question in several research works. The relation between S100B
levels and delirium is still a matter of discussion. Objective: To compare the serum level of S100B in patients with
and without delirium and to detect the relation between S100B and delirium
subtypes. Method: A case control
study was conducted on 114 elderly (60 years and older) selected from the
geriatric acute care unit at Ain Shams University Hospitals. They were classified
into two groups; 58 elderly cases who had delirium diagnosed by Confusion
Assessment Method and 56 controls. Then delirium was reclassified according
to the subtypes of delirium into Hyperactive: 46 patients, hypoactive: 2 patients,
and Mixed: 10 patients. Serum S100B levels were determined by ELISA. Results: Cases were significantly
older than controls (72.4 ± 9.4 versus 66.9 ± 5.3 years respectively) (P
