Abstract:IntroductionAutoimmune encephalitis/encephalopathy (AE) is a complex and heterogeneous disease, making it difficult to predict the prognosis. The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has emerged as a potential prognostic tool, but its usefulness remains a matter of debate. This study aimed to explore prognostic factors in cases of clinically definite or probable AE, including those with autoantibody-negative, or unknown status.MethodsData on patients diagnosed with definite or probable AE, including those with… Show more
