TL;DR: Most patients with anti-NMDAR encephalitis respond to immunotherapy; second-line immunotherapy is usually effective when first-line treatments fail, and outcomes continued to improve for up to 18 months after symptom onset.

TL;DR: The demonstration of an increased IS of GAD-ab is important to confirm that the GAD autoimmunity is related to the neurological syndrome particularly when there is a concomitant DM1 that could justify the presence of high G AD-ab levels.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed indications for MOG-IgG testing based on expert consensus, and gave a list of conditions atypical for MG-EM (red flags) that should prompt physicians to challenge a positive MOG IgG test result, and provided recommendations regarding assay methodology, specimen sampling and data interpretation.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report the clinical, radiological, and immunological association of demyelinating disorders with anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis.

TL;DR: The results of this prospective study show that autoimmune encephalitis occurred in 27% of patients with herpes simplexEncephalitis, and it was associated with development of neuronal antibodies and usually presented within 2 months after treatment of herpes simple X virus reactivation.
