Cerebrospinal fluid/serum gradient of IgG is associated with disability at acute attacks of neuromyelitis optica.
- Abstract:
-
Increased blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption can be found in patients with neuromyelitis optica (NMO); however, its clinical implication and association with disability at acute attack remains obscure. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the clinical significance of BBB disruption and the subsequent cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)/serum IgG gradient in NMO. Retrospective analysis was made of acute-stage CSF samples from NMO (n = 40) and multiple sclerosis (MS; n = 26) patients. The CSF/serum...
