[PMID: 38783085 DOI: 10.1038/s41433-024-03108-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2024] [Revised: 04/04/2024] [Accepted: 04/19/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) is a demyelinating disorder, distinct from multiple sclerosis (MS) and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD). MOGAD most frequently presents with optic neuritis (MOG-ON), often with characteristic clinical and radiological features. Bilateral involvement, disc swelling clinically and radiologically, and longitudinally extensive optic nerve hyperintensity with associated optic perineuritis on MRI are key characteristics that can help distinguish MOG-ON from optic neuritis due to other aetiologies. The detection of serum MOG immunoglobulin G utilising a live cell-based assay in a patient with a compatible clinical phenotype is highly specific for the diagnosis of MOGAD. This review will highlight the key clinical and radiological features which expedite diagnosis, as well as ancillary investigations such as visual fields, visual evoked potentials and cerebrospinal fluid analysis, which may be less discriminatory. Optical coherence tomography can identify optic nerve swelling acutely, and atrophy chronically, and may transpire to have utility as a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker. MOG-ON appears to be largely responsive to corticosteroids, which are often the mainstay of acute management. However, relapses are common in patients in whom follow-up is prolonged, often in the context of early or rapid corticosteroid tapering. Establishing optimal acute therapy, the role of maintenance steroid-sparing immunotherapy for long-term relapse prevention, and identifying predictors of relapsing disease remain key research priorities in MOG-ON.

Abstract
The first formal consensus diagnostic criteria for myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) were recently proposed. Yet, the distinction of MOGAD-defining characteristics from characteristics of its important differential diagnoses such as multiple sclerosis (MS) and aquaporin-4 antibody seropositive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is still obstructed. In preclinical research, MOG antibody-based animal models were used for decades to derive knowledge about MS. In clinical research, people with MOGAD have been combined into cohorts with other diagnoses. Thus, it remains unclear to which extent the generated knowledge is specifically applicable to MOGAD. Translational research can contribute to identifying MOGAD characteristic features by establishing imaging methods and outcome parameters on proven pathophysiological grounds. This article reviews suitable animal models for translational MOGAD research and the current state and prospect of translational imaging in MOGAD.

[PMID: 37705973 PMCID: PMC10495982 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2023.1181908] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2023] [Accepted: 08/08/2023] [Indexed: 09/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Purpose As glial autoantibody testing is not yet available in some areas of the world, an alternative approach is to use clinical indicators to predict which subtypes of middle-aged and elderly-onset optic neuritis (ON) have manifested. Method This study was a single-center hospital-based retrospective cohort study. Middle-aged and elderly-onset ON patients (age > 45 years) who had experienced the first episode of ON were included in this cohort. Single- and multi-parametric diagnostic factors for middle-aged and elderly-onset myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein immunoglobulin-associated ON (MOG-ON) and aquaporin-4 immunoglobulin-related ON (AQP4-ON) were calculated. Results From January 2016 to January 2020, there were 81 patients with middle-aged and elderly-onset ON, including 32 (39.5%) AQP4-ON cases, 19 (23.5%) MOG-ON cases, and 30 (37.0%) Seronegative-ON cases. Bilateral involvement (47.4%, P = 0.025) was most common in the MOG-ON group. The presence of other concomitant autoimmune antibodies (65.6%, P = 0.014) and prior neurological history (37.5%, P = 0.001) were more common in the AQP4-ON group. The MOG-ON group had the best follow-up best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) (89.5% ≤ 1.0 LogMAR, P = 0.001). The most sensitive diagnostic factors for middle-aged and elderly-onset MOG-ON were 'follow-up VA ≤ 0.1 logMAR' (sensitivity 0.89), 'bilateral involvement or follow-up VA ≤ 0.1 logMAR' (sensitivity 0.95), 'bilateral involvement or without neurological history' (sensitivity 1.00), and 'follow-up VA ≤ 0.1 logMAR or without neurological history' (sensitivity 1.00), and the most specific factor was 'bilateral involvement' (specificity 0.81). The most sensitive diagnostic factors for middle-aged and elderly-onset AQP4-ON were 'unilateral involvement' (sensitivity 0.88), 'unilateral involvement or neurological history' (sensitivity 0.91), and 'unilateral involvement or other autoimmune antibodies' (sensitivity 1.00), and the most specific factor was neurological history (specificity 0.98). Conclusion Based on our cohort study of middle-aged and elderly-onset ON, MOG-ON is less prevalent than AQP4-ON and Seronegative-ON. Using multiple combined parameters improves the sensitivity and negative predictive value for diagnosing middle-aged and elderly-onset MOG-ON and AQP4-ON. These combined parameters can help physicians identify and treat middle-aged and elderly-onset ON early when glial autoantibody status is not available.

Acute optic neuritis: What are the clues to the aetiological diagnosis in real life? Mult Scler Relat Disord 2023; 76:104764.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous cross-sectional studies have reported distinct clinical and radiological features among the different acute optic neuritis (ON) aetiologies. Nevertheless, these reports often included the same number of patients in each group, not taking into account the disparity in frequencies of ON aetiologies in a real-life setting and thus, it remains unclear what are the truly useful features for distinguishing the different ON causes. To determine whether clinical evaluation, ophthalmological assessment including the optical coherence tomography (OCT), CSF analysis, and MRI imaging may help to discriminate the different causes of acute ON in a real-life cohort. METHODS In this prospective monocentric study, adult patients with recent acute ON (<1 month) underwent evaluation at baseline and 1 and 12 months, including, high- and low-contrast visual acuity, visual field assessment and OCT measurements, baseline CSF analysis and MRI. RESULTS Among 108 patients, 71 (65.7%) had multiple sclerosis (MS), 19 (17.6%) had idiopathic ON, 13 (12.0%) and 5 (4.6%) had myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein and aquaporin-4 antibodies, at last follow up respectively.At baseline, the distribution of bilateral ON, CSF-restricted oligoclonal bands, optic perineuritis, optic nerve length lesions and positive dissemination in space and dissemination in time criteria on MRI were significantly different between the four groups (p <0.001). No significant difference in visual acuity nor inner retinal layer thickness was found between the different ON aetiologies. CONCLUSIONS In this large prospective study, bilateral visual involvement, CSF and MRI results are the most useful clues in distinguishing the different aetiologies of acute ON, whereas ophthalmological assessments including OCT measurements revealed no significant difference between the aetiologies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) is an acquired inflammatory demyelinating disease with optic neuritis (ON) as the most frequent clinical symptom. The hallmark of the disease is the presence of autoantibodies against MOG (MOG-IgG) in the serum of patients. Whereas the role of MOG in the experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis animal model is well-established, the pathogenesis of the human disease and the role of human MOG-IgG is still not fully clear. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION PubMed was searched for the terms "MOGAD," "optic neuritis," "MOG antibodies," and "experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis" alone or in combination, to find articles of interest for this review. Only articles written in English language were included and reference lists were searched for further relevant papers. RESULTS B and T cells play a role in the pathogenesis of human MOGAD. The distribution of lesions and their development toward the optic pathway is influenced by the genetic background in animal models. Moreover, MOGAD-associated ON is frequently bilateral and often relapsing with generally favorable visual outcome. Activated T-cell subsets create an inflammatory environment and B cells are necessary to produce autoantibodies directed against the MOG protein. Here, pathologic mechanisms of MOG-IgG are discussed, and histopathologic findings are presented. CONCLUSIONS MOGAD patients often present with ON and harbor antibodies against MOG. Furthermore, pathogenesis is most likely a synergy between encephalitogenic T and antibody producing B cells. However, to which extent MOG-IgG are pathogenic and the exact pathologic mechanism is still not well understood.

Abstract
Serum antibodies directed against myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) are found in patients with acquired CNS demyelinating syndromes that are distinct from multiple sclerosis and aquaporin-4-seropositive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder. Based on an extensive literature review and a structured consensus process, we propose diagnostic criteria for MOG antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) in which the presence of MOG-IgG is a core criterion. According to our proposed criteria, MOGAD is typically associated with acute disseminated encephalomyelitis, optic neuritis, or transverse myelitis, and is less commonly associated with cerebral cortical encephalitis, brainstem presentations, or cerebellar presentations. MOGAD can present as either a monophasic or relapsing disease course, and MOG-IgG cell-based assays are important for diagnostic accuracy. Diagnoses such as multiple sclerosis need to be excluded, but not all patients with multiple sclerosis should undergo screening for MOG-IgG. These proposed diagnostic criteria require validation but have the potential to improve identification of individuals with MOGAD, which is essential to define long-term clinical outcomes, refine inclusion criteria for clinical trials, and identify predictors of a relapsing versus a monophasic disease course.

Abstract
Retinal complications in patients with inflammatory optic neuritis (ON) are generally related to post-infectious neuroretinitis and are considered uncommon in autoimmune/demyelinating ON, whether isolated or caused by multiple sclerosis (MS) or neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD). More recently, however, cases with retinal complications have been reported in subjects positive for myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibodies. We report a 53-year-old woman presenting with severe bilateral ON associated with a focal area of paracentral acute middle maculopathy (PAMM) in one eye. Visual loss recovered remarkably after high-dose intravenous corticosteroid treatment and plasmapheresis, but the PAMM lesion remained visible on both optical coherence tomography and angiography as an ischaemic lesion affecting the middle layers of the retina. The report emphasises the possible occurrence of retinal vascular complications in MOG-related optic neuritis, an important addition to the diagnosis of, and possible differentiation from, MS-related or NMOSD-related ON.

Abstract
Demyelinating disease of the central nervous system associated with antibodies to myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOGAD) has been proposed to be distinguished from neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) into a separate nosological form. The basis for the recognition of nosological independence was the presence of clinical features of this disease and the detection of a specific biomarker in the blood serum of patients - IgG class antibodies to MOG. The article summarizes the current data on the clinical and radiological phenotypes of MOGAD in children and adults and the features of the course of the disease. The requirements for the laboratory diagnosis of the disease and diagnostic criteria for MOGAD proposed by an international group of experts in 2023 are given.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Because AQP4/MOG antibody testing is not available in some parts of the world and there are often delays in obtaining results, it is particularly important to use clinical factors to predict the subtypes of adult optic neuritis (ON). METHODS This was a single-center retrospective cohort study. RESULTS The final analysis included 249 adult patients presenting with the first ON attack during January 2016 to January 2020. These included 109 (43.8%) AQP4-ON cases, 49 (19.7%) MOG-ON cases, and 91 (36.5%) Seronegative-ON cases. The proportion of optic disk swelling (ODS) and bilateral involvement in MOG-ON group was significantly higher than in the other two subgroups (P = 0.029, 0.001). The MOG-ON group had the best follow-up BCVA (P = 0.003). To predict adult AQP4-ON, unilateral involvement (sensitivity 0.88, NPV 0.77) was the most sensitivity predictors, while neurological history (specificity 0.96, PPV 0.65) and concomitant other autoimmune antibodies (specificity 0.76, PPV 0.65) were the most specific predictors. Using the parallel test 'unilateral or other autoimmune antibodies' increased sensitivity to 0.95, with an optimal NPV of 0.88. To predict adult MOG-ON, the most sensitive clinical characteristics were ODS (sensitivity 0.79, NPV 0.88), and follow-up VA ≤0.1logMAR (sensitivity 0.78, NPV 0.92), whereas the most specific values were prior neurological history or bilateral involvement, with specificities of 0.92 and 0.82, respectively. The sensitivity increased to 0.94, 0.97, and 0.97 when using the parallel clinical factors of 'bilateral or ODS or relapse', 'bilateral or ODS or follow-up VA ≤0.1logMAR', and 'ODS or follow-up VA ≤0.1logMAR', and the corresponding NPV (0.94, 0.97 vs 0.98). CONCLUSION The proportion of MOG-ON (19.7%) was less than that of AQP4-ON and Seronegative-ON. Moreover, MOG-ON had a better prognosis and was more likely to be associated with ODS or bilateral involvement. The use of parallel clinical parameters improved the sensitivity for the diagnosis of adult MOG-ON and AQP4-ON.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Antibodies against myelin-oligodendrocyte-glycoprotein (MOG-Abs) associated disease (MOGAD) has been recognized as a disease entity. Optic neuritis (ON) is the most common symptom in MOGAD. To demonstrate the differences in retinal microvascular characteristics between patients with MOGAD-ON and aquaporin-4 antibody (AQP4-Ab) positive ON. METHODS In a prospective study, optical coherence tomography (OCT) and optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) were used to measure retinal and microvascular parameters. RESULTS Twenty-six MOGAD-ON eyes, 40 AQP4-ON eyes, and 60 control eyes were included in the study. The thickness of RNFL and GCC in MOGAD-ON eyes was significantly lower than that of HC (p < 0.001, respectively), but comparable to AQP4-ON eyes. The vessel density in retina capillary plexus (RCP) was reduced significantly in MOGAD-ON than that in AQP4-ON (p < 0.05, respectively). The visual accuracy was positively correlated with vessel density of superficial RCP in MOG-ON (p = 0.001) and positively correlated with the thickness of the inner retina layer in AQP4-ON (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION The retinal neuro-axonal damages between MOGAD-ON and AQP4-ON were comparable. Unlike AQP4-ON eyes, microvascular densities were significantly reduced in MOGAD-ON and were positively correlated with the deterioration of visual acuity in MOGAD-ON.

Abstract
Multiple sclerosis (MS), Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) and Myelin-Oligodendrocyte-Glycoprotein antibody associated disorder (MOGAD) are demyelinating disorders of the central nervous system (CNS) of autoimmune origin. Here, we summarize general considerations on sex-specific differences in the immunopathogenesis and hormonal influences as well as key clinical and epidemiological elements. Gender-specific issues are widely neglected starting with the lacking separation of sex as a biological variable and gender comprising the sociocultural components. As for other autoimmune diseases, female preponderance is common in MS and NMOSD. However, sex distribution in MOGAD seems equal. As in MS, immunotherapy in NMOSD and MOGAD is crucial to prevent further disease activity. Therefore, we assessed data on sex differences of the currently licensed disease-modifying treatments for efficacy and safety. This topic seems widely neglected with only fragmented information resulting from post-hoc analyses of clinical trials or real-world post-marketing studies afflicted with lacking power and/or inherent sources of bias. In summary, biological hypotheses of sex differences including genetic factors, the constitution of the immune system and hormonal influences are based upon human and preclinical data, especially for the paradigmatic disease of MS whereas specific data for NMOSD and MOGAD are widely lacking. Epidemiological and clinical differences between men and women are well described for MS and to some extent for NMOSD, yet, with remaining contradictory findings. MOGAD needs further detailed investigation. Sex-specific analyses of safety and efficacy of long-term immunotherapies need to be addressed in future studies designed and powered to answer the pressing questions and to optimize and individualize treatment.

Abstract
Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein-IgG-associated disorder (MOGAD) is a nervous system (NS) demyelination disease and a newly recognized distinct disease complicated with various diseases or symptoms; however, MOGAD was once considered a subset of neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD). The detection of MOG-IgG has been greatly improved by the cell-based assay test method. In one study, 31% of NMOSD patients with negative aquaporin-4 (AQP-4) antibody were MOG-IgG positive. MOGAD occurs in approximately the fourth decade of a person’s life without a markedly female predominance. Usually, optic neuritis (ON), myelitis or acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) encephalitis are the typical symptoms of MOGAD. MOG-IgG have been found in patients with peripheral neuropathy, teratoma, COVID-19 pneumonia, etc. Some studies have revealed the presence of brainstem lesions, encephalopathy or cortical encephalitis. Attention should be given to screening patients with atypical symptoms. Compared to NMOSD, MOGAD generally responds well to immunotherapy and has a good functional prognosis. Approximately 44-83% of patients undergo relapsing episodes within 8 months, which mostly involve the optic nerve, and persistently observed MOG-IgG and severe clinical performance may indicate a polyphasic course of illness. Currently, there is a lack of clinical randomized controlled trials on the treatment and prognosis of MOGAD. The purpose of this review is to discuss the clinical manifestations, imaging features, outcomes and prognosis of MOGAD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Different glial-autoantibodies-related paediatric optic neuritis (ON) are associated with different clinical characteristics and prognosis that require different treatments. Because glial autoantibody detection is not available in some parts of the world and there is often a delay in obtaining results, clinical factors that can be used to predict the subtype of paediatric ON are needed. METHODS This was a single-centre retrospective cohort study. Children who presented with their first ON attack and with complete clinical data were included in the analysis. Single and multiple parameters for predicting paediatric myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein immunoglobin-associated ON (MOG-ON) and aquaporin-4 immunoglobin-related ON (AQP4-ON) were calculated. RESULTS 78 paediatric patients had their first ON attack from January 2016 to December 2019, of whom 69 were included in the final analysis, including 33 MOG-ON cases, 17 AQP4-ON cases and 19 Seronegative-ON cases. For predicting paediatric MOG-ON, the most sensitive predictors were 'male or optic disc swelling (ODS) or bilateral' (sensitivity 0.97 (95% CI 0.82 to 1.00)) and 'follow-up visual acuity (VA) ≤0.1 logMAR or ODS' (sensitivity 0.97 (95% CI 0.82 to 1.00)), and the most specific factor was 'Age ≤11 y and simultaneous CNS involvement' (specificity 0.97 (95% CI 0.84 to 1.00)). For predicting paediatric AQP4-ON, the most sensitive predictor was 'Female or without ODS' (sensitivity 1.00 (95% CI 0.77 to 1.00)), and the most specific factors were Neurological history (sensitivity 0.94 (95% CI 0.83 to 0.98)) and follow-up VA >1.0 logMAR (sensitivity 0.96 (95% CI 0.86 to 0.99)). CONCLUSION According to our data from a Chinese paediatric cohort, using multiple parameters increases the sensitivity and specificity of diagnosing paediatric MOG-ON and AQP4-ON. These can assist clinicians in diagnosing and treating paediatric ON when glial autoantibody status is not available.

Abstract
Previously, optic neuritis was thought to be typical, i.e. idiopathic or multiple sclerosis (MS) related, associated with a good visual prognosis, or atypical, i.e. not associated with MS and requiring corticosteroids or plasma exchange for vision to recover. More recently, the importance of optic neuritis in neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder and myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibody disease has become more appreciated. The results of the Optic Neuritis Treatment Trial (ONTT) has influenced how optic neuritis is treated around the world. For this review we surveyed the international literature on optic neuritis in adults. Our aims were first to find the reported incidence of optic neuritis in different countries and to ascertain what percentage of cases were seropositive for anti-aquaporin 4 and anti-MOG antibodies, and second, to document the presenting features, treatment, and outcomes from a first episode of the different types of optic neuritis from these countries, and to compare the results with the outcomes of the ONTT cohort. From these data we have sought to highlight where ambiguities currently lie in how to manage optic neuritis and have made recommendations as to how future treatment trials in optic neuritis should be carried out in the current antibody testing era.

Abstract
Optic neuritis (ON) can be associated with inflammatory disease of the central nervous system or can be isolated, with or without relapse. It can also be associated with infectious or systemic disease. These multiple associations based on a variety of clinical, radiological, and biological criteria that have changed over time have led to overlapping phenotypes: a single ON case can be classified in several ways simultaneously or over time. As early, intensive treatment is often required, its diagnosis should be rapid and precise. In this review, we present the current state of knowledge about diagnostic criteria for ON aetiologies in adults and children, we discuss overlapping phenotypes, and we propose a homogeneous classification scheme. Even if distinctions between typical and atypical ON are relevant, their phenotypes are largely overlapping, and clinical criteria are neither sensitive enough, nor specific enough, to assure a diagnosis. For initial cases of ON, clinicians should perform contrast enhanced MRI of the brain and orbits, cerebral spinal fluid analysis, and biological analyses to exclude secondary infectious or inflammatory ON. Systematic screening for MOG-IgG and AQP4-IgG IgG is recommended in children but is still a matter of debate in adults. Early recognition of neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder, MOG-IgG-associated disorder, and chronic relapsing idiopathic optic neuritis is required, as these diagnoses require therapies for relapse prevention that are different from those used to treat multiple sclerosis.

Abstract
Background Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibody disease (MOG-AD) is recognized as a distinct nosological entity. IgG antibodies against MOG (MOG-Ab) overlap with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) phenotype in adults. However, an increasing number of clinical phenotypes have been reported to be associated with MOG-Ab. Objective To investigate the seroprevalence of MOG-Ab under consideration of demographics, disease entities and time course in a large cohort of unselected neurological patients. Methods Blood samples of 2.107 consecutive adult neurologic patients admitted to our department between 2016-2017 were tested for MOG-Ab using a cell-based assay. MOG-Ab persistence was analyzed in follow-up samples. External validation was performed in two independent laboratories. Results We found MOG-Ab in 25 of 2.107 (1.2%) patients. High antibody ratios were mostly associated with NMOSD and MOG-AD phenotype (5/25). Low ratios occurred in a wide range of neurological diseases, predominantly in other demyelinating CNS diseases (5/25) and stroke (6/25). MOG-Ab persistence over time was not confined to NMOSD and MOG-AD phenotype. Conclusion The present study demonstrates the occurrence of MOG-Ab in a wide range of neurological diseases. Only high MOG-Ab ratios were associated with a defined clinical phenotype, but low MOG-Ab ratios were not. The diagnostic value of low MOG-Ab is thus highly limited.

Abstract
AIMS The optimal immunosuppressive therapy (IST) in patients with myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated optic neuritis (MOG-ON) remains uncertain. This study aimed to observe the disease course of MOG-ON and evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and tolerability of conventional immunosuppressants through Chinese cohort analysis. METHODS This bidirectional cohort study included 121 patients with MOG-ON between January 2015 and December 2018. The clinical features and annualised relapse rate (ARR) of patients with and without IST were analysed. RESULTS The median age at onset was 17.5 years, and the sex ratio (F:M) was 1.24. Of 121 patients, 77 patients relapsed and 61 patients were younger than 18 years at disease onset. The overall median ARR of 63 patients in the non-IST group was 0.5, with 46.0% patients showing relapse at a median follow-up of 33.5 months. In the IST group, the ARR decreased from 1.75 pre-IST to 0.00 post-IST in 53 patients who received IST exceeding 6 months, with 20.8% patients showing relapse at a median follow-up of 23.8 months. The relapse rates of patients treated with rituximab (RTX) and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) were not statistically different, but the rate of discontinuation was significantly lower in the RTX-treated group (18.2% vs 57.7%, p=0.0017). CONCLUSION This study provides Class III evidence that both MMF and RTX may lower disease activity in patients with MOG-ON, and RTX showed better tolerability than MMF. However, observation after a single attack remains a good option because less than half of patients not on treatment suffered a relapse.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The main objective was to compare clinical features, disease course, and myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibody (Ab) dynamics between children and adults with MOG-Ab-associated disease (MOGAD). METHODS This retrospective multicentric, national study included 98 children and 268 adults with MOGAD between January 2014 and September 2019. Cox regression model for recurrent time-to-event data and Kaplan-Meier curves for time to antibody negativity were performed for the objectives. RESULTS Isolated optic neuritis was the most frequent clinical presentation in both children (40.8%) and adults (55.9%, p = 0.013), and acute disseminated encephalomyelitis syndrome was more frequent in children (36.7% vs 5.6%, p < 0.001). Compared to adults, children displayed better recovery (Expanded Disability Status Scale ≥ 3.0 at last follow-up reached only by 10 of 97 [10.3%] vs 66/247 [26.7%], p < 0.001). In the multivariate analysis, adults were at higher risk of relapse than children (hazard ratio = 1.41, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.12-1.78, p = 0.003). At 2 years, 64.2% (95% CI = 40.9-86.5) of nonrelapsing children became MOG-Ab negative compared to 14.1% (95% CI = 4.7-38.3) of relapsing children (log-rank p < 0.001), with no differences observed in adults (log-rank p = 0.280). INTERPRETATION MOGAD patients differ in the clinical presentation at onset, showing an age-related shift in the clinical features across age groups. Compared to children, adults have a higher risk of relapse and worse functional recovery. Finally, children with monophasic disease become MOG-Ab negative earlier than relapsing children, but this is not true in adults. Considering these differences, management and treatment guidelines should be considered independently in children and adults. ANN NEUROL 2021;89:30-41.

AQP4-IgG and MOG-IgG Related Optic Neuritis-Prevalence, Optical Coherence Tomography Findings, and Visual Outcomes: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. Front Neurol 2020; 11:540156. [PMID: 33132999 PMCID: PMC7578376 DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2020.540156] [Citation(s) in RCA: 55] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2020] [Accepted: 08/25/2020] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Optic neuritis (ON) is a cardinal manifestation of multiple sclerosis (MS), aquaporin-4 (AQP4)-IgG-, and myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG)-IgG-associated disease. However, the prevalence of AQP4-IgG seropositivity and MOG-IgG seropositivity in isolated ON is unclear, and studies comparing visual outcomes and optical coherence tomography (OCT)-derived structural retinal measures between MS-ON, AQP4-ON, and MOG-ON eyes are limited by small sample sizes. Objectives: (1) To assess the prevalence of AQP4-IgG and MOG-IgG seropositivity among patients presenting with isolated ON; (2) to compare visual outcomes and OCT measures between AQP4-ON, MOG-ON, and MS-ON eyes. Methods: In this systematic review and meta-analysis, a total of 65 eligible studies were identified by PubMed search. Statistical analyses were performed with random effects models. Results: In adults with isolated ON, AQP4-IgG seroprevalence was 4% in non-Asian and 27% in Asian populations, whereas MOG-IgG seroprevalence was 8 and 20%, respectively. In children, AQP4-IgG seroprevalence was 0.4% in non-Asian and 15% in Asian populations, whereas MOG-IgG seroprevalence was 47 and 31%, respectively. AQP4-ON eyes had lower peri-papillary retinal nerve fiber layer (pRNFL; -11.7 μm, 95% CI: -15.2 to -8.3 μm) and macular ganglion cell + inner plexiform layer (GCIPL; -9.0 μm, 95% CI: -12.5 to -5.4 μm) thicknesses compared with MS-ON eyes. Similarly, pRNFL (-11.2 μm, 95% CI: -21.5 to -0.9 μm) and GCIPL (-6.1 μm, 95% CI: -10.8 to -1.3 μm) thicknesses were lower in MOG-ON compared to MS-ON eyes, but did not differ between AQP4-ON and MOG-ON eyes (pRNFL: -1.9 μm, 95% CI: -9.1 to 5.4 μm; GCIPL: -2.6 μm, 95% CI: -8.9 to 3.8 μm). Visual outcomes were worse in AQP4-ON compared to both MOG-ON (mean logMAR difference: 0.60, 95% CI: 0.39 to 0.81) and MS-ON eyes (mean logMAR difference: 0.68, 95% CI: 0.40 to 0.96) but were similar in MOG-ON and MS-ON eyes (mean logMAR difference: 0.04, 95% CI: -0.05 to 0.14). Conclusions: AQP4-IgG- and MOG-IgG-associated disease are important diagnostic considerations in adults presenting with isolated ON, especially in Asian populations. Furthermore, MOG-IgG seroprevalence is especially high in pediatric isolated ON, in both non-Asian and Asian populations. Despite a similar severity of GCIPL and pRNFL thinning in AQP4-ON and MOG-ON, AQP4-ON is associated with markedly worse visual outcomes.

Abstract
The knowledge on demyelinating and autoimmune optic neuropathies has experienced a revolution the last decade since the discovery of anti-aquaporin 4 antibody. Improvements in diagnostic techniques, and the finding of new targets, along with advances in neuro-immunology have led to the detection of antibodies related to demyelinating diseases. A review is presented on the classical and new concepts in optic neuritis. The debate on the classification of demyelinating and autoimmune optic neuritis is presented. Furthermore, the updated diagnostic criteria in multiple sclerosis and neuro-myelitis optics are described. Finally, the latest insights into Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein (MOG) disorders and chronic-recurring optic neuropathies (CRION) are highlited.
