Cerebrospinal Fluid Analysis in the Workup of GLUT1 Deficiency Syndrome
JAMA Neurol 70:1440-1444, Leen, W.G.,et al, 2013
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
We conclude that if age-specific reference values are applied, CSF glucose and lactate levels are adequate biomarkers in the diagnostic workup of GLUT1 deficiency syndrome. Future availability of whole-exome sequencing in clinical practice will make the existence of a reliable biomarker for GLUT1 deficiency syndrome even more important, in order to interpret genetic results and, even more importantly, not to miss SLC2A1-negative patients with GLUT1 deficiency syndrome.
