Our study reveals the frequency, causes, and consequences of seizure-related falls in LGI1-IgG autoimmune encephalitis. Drop attacks & crural dystonic seizures among top causes. Early diagnosis and prompt immunotherapy crucial for better outcomes

Brachial amyotrophic diplegia isn't just linked to ALS. Our study reveals paraneoplastic autoimmunity as a possible cause, highlighted by LUZP4-IgG and KLHL11-IgG seropositivity, alongside associated clinical features like ataxia, vertigo, and hearing loss pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38772930/

A 61 year old man comes to see you for muscle cramps “Cramps. You mean like the kind in your calf that wake you up at night?” “No doc, they look like this…” What’s going on here??

"These antibodies are going to help not only with the diagnosis of these patients but also to guide the search for underlying tumor types," says Divyanshu Dubey, M.B.B.S. Learn more about autoantibody tests for paraneoplastic neurological syndromes. bit.ly/4dW9Vjq

Thank you Teshamae Monteith, M.D. for featuring our discussion in the latest Autoimmune Neurology issue of Continuum. Grateful for the opportunity to share insights on autoimmune neuromuscular disorders.

It was an honor to be invited for the Naveen Deshpande Lectureship at the University of British Columbia, Vancouver. Great neurology program and an amazing city!

Our study validates the 2021 PNS-CARE score with high sensitivity (93%) and specificity (100%), improving on the 2004 criteria. We highlight key antibodies and phenotypes for earlier, accurate diagnosis. Hannah Zhao-Fleming neurology.org/doi/10.1212/NX…

Congratulations to the #NMOSD team at Mayo Clinic for Receiving The Team Science Award 🤩 From defining its clinical/pathological features to finding aquaporin-4 antibodies to leading trials of effective treatments - this team have greatly improved outcomes for #NMOSD patients

Congratulations to Dr. Neeraj Kumar on receiving the Distinguished Clinician Award, one of Mayo Clinic’s highest honors! This well-deserved recognition celebrates his unwavering commitment to patient care, mentorship, and advancing medical education.

Our study on ANNA1 (anti-Hu) autoimmunity reveals distinct phenotypes, cancer links, and biomarkers across ages.PhIP-Seq identified phenotype specific immunosignatures, serum NfL levels correlated with poor outcomes. doi.org/10.1002/acn3.5…

Don’t miss this amazing opportunity to learn, connect, and unwind! 🌴🧠✨ #AutoimmuneNeurology

A true legend in the field of peripheral neuropathy. Professor Peter J. Dyck's contributions have shaped and will continue to shape generations of research and clinical care. #PNGoat

Grateful to be part of this collaborative effort with Dr. John Mills and the amazing team at Mayo Clinic Labs. A testament to teamwork and the lab’s continued commitment to advancing diagnostics for demyelinating neuropathies. #Neurology #Neuropathy

Our new study highlights the clinical features and treatment outcomes of Neurofascin 155-IgG4 autoimmune nodopathy in children! Pediatric patients show rapid disease progression (often suspected to have GBS) and respond favorably to rituximab. neurology.org/doi/10.1212/NX…

Using high-throughput PhIP-Seq, we identified NPAS4-IgG, a novel autoantibody in CSF of antibody-negative autoimmune limbic encephalitis & additional AK5-IgG cases, highlighting PhIP-Seq’s role in uncovering new autoimmune biomarkers#AutoimmuneEncephalitis pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40133514/

Outstanding editorial by Divyanshu Dubey on our recent publication in Neurology 👏🏻 neurology.org/doi/10.1212/WN…

Excellent study that highlights AChR-IgG very low titers in low-pretest probability scenarios warrant caution to avoid MG misdiagnosis. #MyastheniaGravis

Case report: a man who tested positive for IgLON5-IgG antibody after intermittent episodes of paresthetic feeling involving the throat and jaw. ja.ma/3RoNyds
