- The study evaluated the effectiveness of the 2023 myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) criteria in diagnosing inflammatory demyelinating conditions in both adults and children.
- It analyzed data from 1,879 patients, confirming MOGAD in 16% of those tested, with follow-up averaging 3.6 years.
