Analysis reveals high mortality rates and predominant etiologies of bacterial meningitis, suggesting urgent public health responses.

Bacterial meningitis has a mortality rate ranging from 10–30%, with a notable 31.3% for pneumococcal cases.
Pneumococcal and meningococcal cases account for 47.1% and 26.5% of bacterial meningitis, highlighting common infections.
Cerebrospinal fluid markers have been identified that can predict adverse outcomes in adults suffering from bacterial meningitis.
Comorbid pathologies are strongly associated with poorer outcomes, underlining the need for comprehensive clinical assessments.

Starikova et al. (2025) studied this question.
