Summary

This study looks at two different lab tests (live-cell and fixed-cell) to see which one is better at diagnosing MOGAD, a rare autoimmune disease that affects the brain and nerves. Researchers will test 240 adults who are suspected of having MOGAD, along with people who have other similar conditions, to measure how accurate each test is. The goal is to find the best way to diagnose MOGAD in China and improve patient care.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * age ≥18 years old, male and female. * MOGAD is highly suspected. * Other inflammatory CNS disease control groups include: According to the diagnostic criteria and consensus of various diseases, the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis, Autoimmune encephalitis (except NMDAR encephalitis), Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS), Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating polyradiculopathy (CIDP), Retinal Cerebrovascular disease (SUSAC), POEMS syndrome (POEMS), and neuropathy were confirmed. The monoclonal gammopathy of unknown significance (MGUS), Sarcoidosis and so on. * The control group of non-inflammatory central nervous system diseases included: Migraine, CSVD, benign cranial hypertension, Glioma with definite diagnosis and no other autoimmune diseases. * Healthy controls include healthy people who have no autoimmune diseases through physical examination and other means. * Complete clinical data. * Informed consent of the patient or his guardian has been obtained. Exclusion Criteria: * According to the Guidelines for Diagnosis and Treatment of Optic Neuromyelitis Spectrum Diseases (2021), patients with optic Neuromyelitis Spectrum diseases (NMOSD) with positive AQP4 were clearly diagnosed. * According to the Expert Consensus on the Diagnosis and Treatment of Autoimmune encephalitis in China (2022), the diagnosis was confirmed as NMDAR encephalitis. * Patients with positive anti-glial fibrillary acidic protein antibody (GFAP-IgG) in serum and/or cerebrospinal fluid. * Lack of clinical data. * Unqualified blood samples. * The patient\'s informed consent was not obtained. * Misdiagnosis in the research process went wrong in this study.
