“…FBDS has been thought to be an indicative seizure type that frequently preceded the onset of limbic encephalitis (30), and the incidence in our study was 33.3%, consistent with some important studies with an incidence of 34-47% (7,8,17); however, some studies reported a higher incidence of 66.7-100% (3,6,26,28,29). In addition to seizures, cognitive dysfunction, psychiatric disturbances, and sleep disorders were relatively common clinical manifestations, which occurred in 82.2, 66.7, and 54.5% of the patients, respectively, and these results were comparable to previous studies that reported incidences of 64.3-100% (3,6,8,11,17,25,26,28,29), 33.3-73% (3,6,8,17,(27)(28)(29), and 18.2-48% (3,8,11,25,26,28), respectively. In terms of auxiliary examinations, the rates of CSF pleocytosis and protein elevation were both 6.8%, and similar results were obtained in previous studies, with rates of 3.7-19.4% and 12.5-23.1%, respectively (3,11,27,29).…”
