Michel Toledano,Jeffrey W. Britton,Andrew McKeon,Cheolsu Shin,Vanda A. Lennon,Amy M. L. Quek,Elson L. So,Gregory A. Worrell,G. D. Cascino,Christopher J. Klein,Terrence D. Lagerlund,Elaine C. Wirrell,Katherine C. Nickels,Sean J. Pittock +13 more
TL;DR: This study provides Class IV evidence that in patients with suspected autoimmune epilepsy, IVMP, IVIg, or both improve seizure control.
Journal ArticleDOI
