Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) is a common phenotype in children with myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein IgG (MOG-IgG)-associated disease. We aimed to identify novel genetic variants that distinguish children with MOG-IgG-positive ADEM (MOG-IgG+ ADEM) from children with MOG-IgG-negative ADEM (MOG-IgG- ADEM) using whole exome sequencing (WES) analysis. METHODS: We conducted a two-stage...
