004 Pregnancy-related relapse in natalizumab, fingolimod and dimethyl fumarate-treated women with multiple sclerosis

Abstract

IgG (CSF) and 78% of GAD65-IgG (CSF/serum) cohorts (OR=1.32, p=0.002, OR=2.78, p<0.001, respectively). Men accounted for 62% of the LGI1-IgG cohort (OR=1.87, p <0.001). Age and sex interacted for NMDA-R-IgG, particularly in females <20 years (OR=7.72, p <0.001). Conclusion The most frequently detected were NMDA-R-IgG, LGI1-IgG, GAD65-IgG and MOG-IgG1. Age and sex associations may suggest paraneoplastic, endocrinological or aging influences on neurological autoimmunity.
