Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on comparing blood parameters in children with myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disorders (MOGAD), AQP4-IgG-positive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD), multiple sclerosis (MS), and healthy controls to better understand disease activity.
- Researchers analyzed complete blood counts and various ratios (like NLR and PLR) during different disease phases: clinical attack, acute treatment, and remission across a cohort of 174 children and adolescents.
- Key findings revealed elevated leukocyte counts in MOGAD during clinical attacks, while other blood parameters like NLR and PLR showed different trends, suggesting these measures could aid in assessing disease activity and distinguishing between disease
