Clinical features which predict neuronal surface autoantibodies in new-onset focal epilepsy: implications for immunotherapies
- Abstract:
-
Objective To generate a score which clinically identifies surface-directed autoantibodies in adults with new-onset focal epilepsy, and evaluate the value of immunotherapy in this clinical setting.
Methods Prospective clinical and autoantibody evaluations in a cohort of 219 consecutive patients with new-onset focal epilepsy.
Results 10.5% (23/219) of people with new-onset focal epilepsy had detectable serum autoantibodies to...
