14-3-3 Protein in the CSF of Patients with Rapidly Progressive Dementia
Neurol 61:354-357, Huang,N.,et al, 2003
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
The detection of 14-3-3 protein in CSF is a useful in vivo diagnostic test for CJD and, when used in the appropriate clinical context, shows a good correlation to CJD. The presence of the 14-3-3 protein in the CSF reinforces the CJD clinical diagnosis but may not be able to differentiate CJD from other causes of rapidly progressive dementia in everyday clinical practice.
