Anti-NMDAR antibodies, the blood–brain barrier, and anti-NMDAR encephalitis
Anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (anti-NMDAR) encephalitis is an antibody-related autoimmune encephalitis. It is characterized by the existence of antibodies against NMDAR, mainly against the GluN1 subunit, in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Recent research

Screening for anti-NMDAR encephalitis in psychiatry
Anti-NMDAR encephalitis most commonly presents to psychiatric services, so early identification of this disorder is essential. We aim to validate the two screening criteria (Scott et al. and Herken and Pruss) which have been proposed to identify first episode psychosis patients who should have anti-NMDAR antibody testing.

A CASE SERIES ON ANTI NMDAR ENCEPHALITIS
N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis is an autoimmune neurological disorder arising from the generation of antibodies which binds to the synaptic proteins. Here we present a case series of 3 cases where the different aspects of treating NMDAR encephalitis are dealt with.

Relapses in Anti-NMDAR Encephalitis: Clinical Characterization and Predictive Features. [PDF]
During the recovery phase of anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis, up to 25% of relapses have been reported. Herein, we aimed to clinically characterize these relapses, analyze potential clinical predictors during the first episode, and evaluate the impact of immunotherapy in their occurrence.This was a retrospective observational ...
