Abstract
With the increased clinical interest in myelin-oligodendrocyte glycoprotein-antibody-associated disease (MOGAD), the international MOGAD panel’s proposed criteria were recently released. To evaluate its diagnostic performance, the criteria were applied to a single-center cohort. Among the enrolled 100 patients, 93 fulfilled the criteria throughout the median 24 months of follow-up. All 36 patients with a clear-positive MOG-immunoglobulin G (IgG) satisfied the supporting features, except one who did not undergo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan at disease onset. The criteria also contributed significantly to the confirmation of MOGAD in 57 of 64 patients without clear-positive MOG-IgG. When limited to the first attack, 51 of 61 patients (84%) satisfied the criteria, 4 of whom were initially negative for MOG-IgG. These results support the diagnostic utility of the International MOGAD Panel criteria.
