Comparison of spontaneous brain activity revealed by regional homogeneity in AQP4-IgG neuromyelitis optica-optic neuritis versus MOG-IgG optic neuritis patients: a resting-state functional MRI study

Objective Many previous studies have demonstrated that neuromyelitis optica (NMO) patients have abnormalities of brain anatomy and function. However, differences in spontaneous brain activity between myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG)-IgG ON and aquaporin 4(AQP4)-neuromyelitis optica-optic neuritis (ON) remain unknown. In the current study, we investigated the brain neural homogeneity in...

Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer May Be Better Preserved in MOG-IgG versus AQP4-IgG Optic Neuritis: A Cohort Study

BACKGROUND Optic neuritis (ON) in patients with anti-myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG)-IgG antibodies has been associated with a better clinical outcome than anti-aquaporin 4 (AQP4)- IgG ON. Average retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFL) correlates with visual outcome after ON. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to examine whether anti-MOG-IgG ON is associated with better averag...

Anti-MOG antibodies are frequently associated with steroid-sensitive recurrent optic neuritis

MOG antibody-associated optic neuritis in the setting of acute CMV infection

A previously healthy 39 year old man was admitted to our hospital with subacute pain and blurred vision in the right eye, in the absence of fever. Physical exam was notable for mydriasis and relative afferent pupillary defect of the right pupil. Visual acuity was 0.5 in the right eye and 1.0 in the left eye. Funduscopic examination of the right eye revealed mild papilledema without concurrent r...
