ObjectiveThe purpose of the present study is to clarify the relationship between the apolipoprotein B100/apolipoprotein A-I (ApoB/ApoA-I) ratio and anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (anti-NMDAR) encephalitis.MethodsA total of 71 patients with anti-NMDAR encephalitis were included in this study, and their ApoB/ApoA-I ratios in baseline and follow-up were retrospectively analyzed.ResultsThe ApoB/ApoA-I ratio was closely correlated with the baseline-modified Rankin scale (mRS) score of >3 in patients with anti-NMDAR encephalitis. A subgroup analysis showed obvious differences between the high and low ApoB/ApoA-I ratio groups. The ApoB/ApoA-I ratio was positively correlated with intensive care unit (ICU) treatment, length of hospital stay, baseline mRS score, C-reactive protein (CRP), and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR). The ratios of the high and low ApoB/ApoA-I groups both improved in the follow-up.ConclusionThe increased ApoB/ApoA-I ratio is associated with acute anti-NMDAR encephalitis, but not disease outcomes. Serum ApoB/ApoA-I ratio was related to inflammation and immunity in peripheral blood. The findings might provide a new idea for further exploration of the pathogenesis and treatment of anti-NMDAR encephalitis. |
