Cerebrospinal Fluid Findings in Aseptic Versus Bacterial Meningitis
Pediatrics 105:316-319, Negrini,B.,et al, 2000
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
The majority of children with aseptic meningitis have a PMN predominance in the CSF. The PMN predominance is not limited to the first 24 hours of illness. Because the majority of children with a PMN predominance during enteroviral season will have aseptic disease, a PMN predominance as a sole criterion does not discriminate between aseptic and bacterial meningitis.
