Summary

Autoimmune encephalitis (AE) is an important autoimmune neurological disease, and its clinical manifestations, treatment and prognosis are closely related to the type of pathogenic antibodies. However, due to the limited antibody spectrum and the unclear pathogenic mechanism, the disease is difficult to diagnose and treat, and the morbidity and mortality rates are high. In a previous study, we found that anti-CRMP2 antibodies were AE-specific autoantibodies, adding a new member to the AE antibody spectrum and thus defining a new class of AEs, anti-CRMP2 encephalitis. However, due to the limited number of cases, its clinical characteristics such as incidence, concomitant diseases, imaging manifestations, treatment effects and prognosis are not yet clear. This study plans to conduct large-scale anti-CRMP2 antibody screening in critically ill patients with suspected neurological autoimmune diseases in our hospital, and compare the clinical differences between anti-CRMP2 encephalitis and other known AEs and non-autoimmune encephalitis.
