Low vitamin D levels are associated with autoimmunity, but the relationship with anti-N-Methyl-d-aspartate receptor (anti-NMDAR) encephalitis is unknown.
25(OH) D levels and clinical and cerebrospinal fluid parameters were evaluated in 30 patients with anti-NMDAR encephalitis and compared with 90 age-, sex-, and season-matched healthy controls.
25(OH)D levels were lower in patients with anti-NMDAR encephalitis compared to controls (43.89 ± 17.91 vs 64.24 ± 24.38 nmol/L, p < 0.001), especially for females (vs males, p = 0.008), aged ≤30 years (vs > 30 years, p = 0.002), severe impairment (mRS ≥ 5) (vs mRS < 5, p = 0.018), and limited treatment responses (vs favorable treatment, p = 0.02). Serum 25(OH)D levels were associated with age (r = 0.393, p = 0.032), and mRS (r = -0.417, p = 0.022).
Our data showed that serum 25(OH)D levels were reduced in patients with anti-NMDAR encephalitis.
维生素D水平低与自身免疫有关,但与抗N-甲基-D-天冬氨酸受体(抗NMDAR)脑炎的关系尚不清楚。
对30例抗NMDAR脑炎患者的25(OH)D水平以及临床和脑脊液参数进行评估,并与90名年龄、性别和季节匹配的健康对照者进行比较。
与对照组相比,抗NMDAR脑炎患者的25(OH)D水平较低(43.89±17.91对64.24±24.38nmol/L,p<0.001),尤其是女性(与男性相比,p=0.008)、年龄≤30岁者(与>30岁者相比,p=0.002)、严重功能障碍者(改良Rankin量表[mRS]≥5)(与mRS<5者相比,p=0.018)以及治疗反应有限者(与治疗效果良好者相比,p=0.02)。血清25(OH)D水平与年龄(r=0.393,p=0.032)和mRS(r=-0.417,p=0.022)相关。
我们的数据表明,抗NMDAR脑炎患者的血清25(OH)D水平降低。
