Background: Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) typically presents as a monophasic demyelinating disorder associated with multifocal neurological symptoms and encephalopathy in children. Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody (MOG-IgG) is detected in a subset of patients and may be linked to recurrence risk. This study evaluated the clinical, radiologic, and optic coherence tomographic (OCT) features of children with ADEM based on MOG-IgG serostatus.

Background: To explore the clinical characteristics and related factors of children with acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) with positive anti-myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibody.
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted and enrolled pediatric ADEM patients who underwent serum MOG antibody detection from May 2017 to August 2020. The patients were divided into two groups: MOG- immunoglobulin G (IgG) positive (n = 35) and MOG-IgG negative (n = 50).

Purpose: To describe the clinical, radiological, immunological and electrophysiological features of a myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG)-IgG positive girl with five prior episodes of idiopathic bilateral optic neuritis (ON).
Observations: We report a Danish girl who has been followed by pediatricians and pediatric neurologists since the age of 10 with recurrent episodes of idiopathic bilateral ON. Since the age of 15 there has been no recurrence of ON, and the patient has been thoroughly investigated for Multiple Sclerosis (MS) several times, but with negative findings.

Background: Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG)-IgG associated disorders are increasingly recognized as a distinct disease entity. However, diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of serum MOG-IgG as well as recommendations for testing are still debated.
Materials And Methods: Between October 2015 and July 2017 we tested serum MOG-IgG in 91 adult patients (49 females) with a demyelinating event (DE) not fulfilling 2010 McDonald criteria for MS at sampling, negative for neuromyelitis optica (NMO)-IgG and followed-up for at least 12 months.
