Abnormal CSF-Specific OCBs in Neuronal Surface Antibody-Associated Autoimmune Encephalitis Differentiating from Viral Encephalitis.
Article in Journal of inflammation research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Purpose: The present study aimed to examine the clinical distinctions among patients with neuronal surface antibody-associated autoimmune encephalitis (NSAE) diagnosed with anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor encephalitis (NMDAR-E), anti-leucine-rich glioma-inactivated 1 encephalitis (LGI1-E), and anti-gamma aminobutyric acid-B receptor encephalitis (GABABR-E), compared with those with viral encephalitis (VE). Additionally, the study aimed to assess the impact of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) oligoclonal bands (OCBs) on the severity and prognosis of NSAE. Patients and Methods: This retrospective analysis included patients with NSAE, encompassing NMDAR-E, LGI1-E, and GABABR-E, alongside individuals with VE. Participants with NSAE were categorized into two groups based on the presence or absence of CSF-specific OCBs. Data regarding demographics, clinical manifestations, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings, CSF analyses and prognosis were collected and analyzed. Results: The findings indicated that younger female with NSAE exhibited a higher incidence of seizure onset, disruption of the blood-CSF barrier (BCSFB), and elevated Q Conclusion: In comparison to VE patients, NSAE patients with positive OCBs were more frequently female and exhibited CSF pleocytosis, particularly among those with NMDAR-E. Importantly, the presence of positive OCBs emerged as an independent predictor of unfavorable outcomes in patients with NMDAR-E, LGI1-E, and GABABR-E.
