Clinical Manifestations and Complications in Patients with Anti-NMDA Receptor Encephalitis

Objective To investigate the clinical manifestations and complications in the patients of anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate (anti-NMDA) receptor encephalitis. Methods We retrospectively collected clinical data of 143 patients diagnosed with anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis. According to the complexity of clinical symptoms, the patients were divided into two groups: ≥4 clinical symptoms group (96 cases, 67.1%) and POR)=2.620, POR=4.338, 0.980, respectively, P<0.05). Conclusion In the patients of anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis, abnormal EEG may related to more complex clinical symptoms. Abnormal movements and low ADL on admission seems to be independent risk factors related to the incidence of complications.
