E169-E171 | Pages: | E169-E171 | Journal: | Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal | Abstract: | Anti-N-Methyl-D-Aspartate-receptor encephalitis is the most common antibody-mediated autoimmune encephalopathy. A HIV-infected African boy presented with subacute psychosis as manifestation of anti-N-Methyl-D-Aspartate-receptor encephalitis. Intravenous immunoglobulin and corticosteroids induced complete remission. Although this is the first pediatric case described, 5 adult cases have been reported. The role of HIV in the etiology of this autoimmune condition requires further exploration.L6309663352020-02-24 | DOI: | 10.1097/INF.0000000000002338 | Resources: | https://www.embase.com/search/results?subaction=viewrecord&id=L630966335&from=exporthttp://dx.doi.org/10.1097/INF.0000000000002338 | | Keywords: | nevirapine;oligoclonal band;prednisolone;pyrazinamide;rifampicin;zidovudine;adolescent;anti NMDA receptor encephalitis;antiretroviral therapy;bronchoscopy;case report;CD4 lymphocyte count;cerebrospinal fluid analysis;clinical article;cognitive defect;corticosteroid therapy;delusional disorder;dyskinesia;grandiose delusion;human;Human immunodeficiency virus infected patient;Human immunodeficiency virus infection;immunoglobulin blood level;immunotherapy;insomnia;lung tuberculosis;male;mania;memory disorder;nuclear magnetic resonance imaging;perception disorder;priority journal;psychosis;relapse;remission;review;sustained virologic response;methylprednisolone;lamivudine;isoniazid;ethambutolimmunoglobulin;n methyl dextro aspartic acid receptor antibody | Type: | Article |
