AE is a serious medical condition in which the immune system attacks the brain, impairing function. With rapid diagnosis and appropriate treatment, many patients recover most or all functions.

Background: Childhood trauma is a major risk factor for the development of affective disorders later in life. We sought to determine whether this risk is linked to neurostructural changes in limbic brain regions after childhood trauma. Methods: We recruited 49 medically healthy adult women (28.297.1 years of age) from the Atlanta area to include women with/without childhood trauma and with/with...
متن کاملAutoimmune Encephalitis
autoimmune encephalitis (aiE) associated with neural autoantibodies is increasingly recognized as a cause of subacute onset amnesia, confusion, and seizures. in the past decade, several key antibody targets have been identified in aiE. These include the N-methyl d-aspartate (NMda) receptors, voltage-gated potassium channel complexes—in particular leucine-rich glioma inactivated 1 (lGi1) and glu...
