Diffusion Tractography Biomarker for Epilepsy Severity in Children With Drug‐Resistant Epilepsy
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective To develop a novel deep‐learning model of clinical DWI tractography that can accurately predict the general assessment of epilepsy severity (GASE) in pediatric drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) and test if it can screen diverse neurocognitive impairments identified through neuropsychological assessments.

Clinical Characteristics and Outcomes of Early‐Onset Versus Late‐Onset LGI1‐Antibody Encephalitis
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Leucine‐rich glioma‐inactivated 1 antibody (LGI1‐Ab) encephalitis predominantly affected older individuals, but has also been reported in younger patients. However, the demographic, clinical, and prognostic characteristics of early‐onset LGI1‐Ab encephalitis have yet to be systematically elucidated. This study aims to systematically

Journal of the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh, 2019 Abstract Autoimmune encephalitis (AE) is an increasingly recognized, potentially life-threatening disorder that poses a diagnostic challenge in the intensive care setting because of its variable clinical presentation. Various epidemiologic studies show that AE has incidence and prevalence rates similar to those of infectious encephalitis.

Insights Into the Antigenic Repertoire of Unclassified Synaptic Antibodies
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective We sought to characterize the sixth most common finding in our neuroimmunological laboratory practice (tissue assay‐observed unclassified neural antibodies [UNAs]), combining protein microarray and phage immunoprecipitation sequencing (PhIP‐Seq). Methods Patient specimens (258; 133 serums; 125 CSF) meeting UNA criteria were profiled;
