In the comparison of the distribution of CSF VDBP levels among infections caused by pathogens that were identified at least three times (EBV [n = 5], enterovirus [n = 29], and VZV [n = 4]), the enterovirus group (median, IQR; 1.89 μg/mL, 1.44–2.54) showed a significantly lower distribution of CSF VDBP levels than the EBV (7.58 μg/mL, 2.93–14.79) and VZV (6.62 μg/mL, 2.72–15.10) groups (P = 0.022) (Fig. 3). This evidence concerns the gene GC and infection.
