Blood neutrophils, oligoclonal bands and bridging corticosteroids as predictive factors for MOGAD course: Insights from a multicentric Portuguese cohort
Background
Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) is a heterogeneous entity with either a monophasic or relapsing course. Well-established predictors of relapsing disease are lacking.
Objective
Identifying predictors of relapsing MOGAD, particularly at disease onset.
Methods
A multicentre observational retrospective study was conducted to characterise a cohort of Portuguese adult MOGAD patients. Patients were identified from participating centre databases. Clinical and demographic data were collected from medical records. Bivariate analysis was conducted to compare patients with relapsing and monophasic MOGAD. Significant variables were included in a stepwise multiple regression analysis to identify independent predictors of relapse.
Results
Eighty-seven MOGAD patients from 8 public hospitals were included. Relapsing MOGAD was found in 35.6% (n = 31). Mean diagnostic delay was 3.2 (±6.2) years and time to relapse was 4.4 (±6.4) years. Multiple logistic regression showed that higher neutrophil count (p < 0.01), presence of oligoclonal bands (p = 0.025) and no bridging corticosteroids (p = 0.038) at first attack were predictive of relapsing MOGAD.
Conclusion
Neutrophil count and oligoclonal bands at first attack may facilitate early decision-making regarding maintenance immunotherapy. Bridging corticosteroids may also influence the course of MOGAD. Further studies with prospective design are warranted.
期刊介绍:
Multiple Sclerosis is an area of ever expanding research and escalating publications. Multiple Sclerosis and Related Disorders is a wide ranging international journal supported by key researchers from all neuroscience domains that focus on MS and associated disease of the central nervous system. The primary aim of this new journal is the rapid publication of high quality original research in the field. Important secondary aims will be timely updates and editorials on important scientific and clinical care advances, controversies in the field, and invited opinion articles from current thought leaders on topical issues. One section of the journal will focus on teaching, written to enhance the practice of community and academic neurologists involved in the care of MS patients. Summaries of key articles written for a lay audience will be provided as an on-line resource.
A team of four chief editors is supported by leading section editors who will commission and appraise original and review articles concerning: clinical neurology, neuroimaging, neuropathology, neuroepidemiology, therapeutics, genetics / transcriptomics, experimental models, neuroimmunology, biomarkers, neuropsychology, neurorehabilitation, measurement scales, teaching, neuroethics and lay communication.
