Changes in DPPX autoantibody levels in autoimmune encephalitis: a case report and brief review
This case highlights the diagnostic challenges of DPPX encephalitis, emphasizing the importance of interpreting encephalopathy panel results within the clinical context. The observed fluctuations in DPPX antibody levels suggest that repeat serum testing may be of utility to reassess diagnosis and guide treatment in clinical cases where there is concern for autoimmune encephalitis.
