Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease that can have detrimental effects on many different systems in the body, including the central nervous system. Neuropsychiatric SLE (NPSLE) refers to several different neurological and/or behavioral clinical syndromes, and has been reported as having a prevalence rate of approximately 30−40%, while manifestation of myelitis or optic ne...
OBJECTIVE To (1) determine the value of the recently proposed criteria of neuromyelitis optica (NMO) spectrum disorder (NMOSD) that unify patients with NMO and those with limited forms (NMO/LF) with aquaporin-4 immunoglobulin G (AQP4-IgG) antibodies; and (2) investigate the clinical significance of the serologic status in patients with NMO. METHODS This was a retrospective, multicenter study ...
Neuromyelitis optica (NMO), considered to be mediated by autoantibodies, often cause severely disabling disorders of the central nervous system, and predominantly cause optic nerve damage and longitudinally extensive transverse myelitis. Remarkable progress has been made in deciphering NMO pathogenesis during the past decade. In 2015, the International Panel for NMO Diagnosis proposed the unify...
In this issue of Brain, John Kisimbi et al. (2013) describe spectral domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) findings in a cohort of patients with Tanzanian endemic optic neuropathy, a disorder of unknown aetiology, leading to severe bilateral subacute optic neuropathy. They describe severe retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL) thinning and concomitant microcystic macular changes in 12.5% of this ...
OPINION STATEMENT Pediatric optic neuritis is a rare disorder causing a subacute loss of vision (often bilateral) in children, often of a severe degree. Common clinical findings include dense visual field loss, afferent pupillary defect (APD) in unilateral cases, and papillitis that is often bilateral. Contrary to optic neuritis in the adult population, the differential diagnosis for this disor...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Whether gray matter impairment occurs in neuromyelitis optica is a matter of ongoing debate, and the association of gray matter impairment with cognitive deficits remains largely unknown. The purpose of this study was to investigate gray matter volume reductions and their association with cognitive decline in patients with neuromyelitis optica. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thi...
Neuromyelitis optica (NMO, also known as Devic’s syndrome) is a demyelinating disease of the central nervous system characterized by recurrent optic neuritis and acute transverse myelitis. The disease was initially considered a variant of multiple sclerosis (MS). However, recent literature had suggested that NMO is a distinct disease from MS, with poorer prognosis and different therapy. Therefo...
BACKGROUND Neuromyelitis optica (NMO) is a severe demyelinating disease defined principally by its tendency to selectively affect optic nerves and the spinal cord causing recurrent attacks of blindness and paralysis. Contemporary diagnostic criteria require absence of clinical disease outside the optic nerve or spinal cord. We have, however, frequently encountered patients with a well-establish...
