This study aims to evaluate the association between age and prognosis in patients with anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor encephalitis (anti-NMDARE) under the age of 45 years. A retrospective study was conducted in patients younger than 45 years diagnosed as anti-NMDARE in four hospitals in China. Age at admission was divided into four categories: <15, 15-24, 25-34, 35-45 years. Neurological prognosis was evaluated using modified Rankin Scale. Adjusted multivariable logistic regression was used to analyze the association. The multivariable-adjusted odds ratios (95% confidence interval) of prognosis in anti-NMDARE across the categories of age were as follows: in males, 1.00 (reference), 4.76 (0.39-58.76), 13.50 (0.79-230.40), and 8.81 (0.36-218.39) ( for trend = 0.171); in females, 1.00 (reference), 7.27 (0.36-146.19), 20.08 (1.09-370.39), and 54.41 (1.60-1,849.10) ( for trend = 0.01). We concluded that the increasing age was associated with a poorer prognosis of anti-NMDARE in females but not males.
本研究旨在评估45岁以下抗N-甲基-D-天冬氨酸受体脑炎(抗NMDARE)患者的年龄与预后之间的关联。对中国四家医院诊断为抗NMDARE的45岁以下患者进行了一项回顾性研究。入院时年龄分为四类:<15岁、15 - 24岁、25 - 34岁、35 - 45岁。使用改良Rankin量表评估神经学预后。采用校正多变量逻辑回归分析这种关联。抗NMDARE患者在不同年龄组的多变量校正优势比(95%置信区间)如下:男性为1.00(参照)、4.76(0.39 - 58.76)、13.50(0.79 - 230.40)和8.81(0.36 - 218.39)(趋势检验P = 0.171);女性为1.00(参照)、7.27(0.36 - 146.19)、20.08(1.09 - 370.39)和54.41(1.60 - 1,849.10)(趋势检验P = 0.01)。我们得出结论,年龄增加与女性抗NMDARE患者预后较差相关,但与男性无关。
