Abstract:
Objective To discuss the clinical characteristics of patients withclinical features of patients with neuromyelytis opica and spectrum of neuromyelytis opica(NMOSD) and neuromyelitis optica (NMO).Methods With a retrospective study,From February 2013 to September 2016,a total of 72 NMO patients in Navy General Hospital for diagnosis and treatment were selected as the NMO the NMO group and the other 72 patients of NMOSD patients were selected as the NMOSD group.The results of two groups of patients with general demographic data,ocular symptoms,spinal cord and brain MRI,influence NMO-IgG were recorded.Results There were no significant differences in gender and age compared between the two groups (P ＞ 0.05).The clinical characteristics,frequency and duration in the NMOSD group compared to the NMO group were significantly different (P ＜ 0.05).In the NMOSD group,there were 8 patients who were decreased vision,4 patients were visual field defect,3 patients were discoloration,5 patients were diplopia.While in the NMO group,32 patients were decreased visual acuity,14 patients were visual field defect,12 patients were color vision,21 patients were diplopia.There were statistically significant difference between the two groups (P ＜ 0.05).In the NMOSD group,there were 8 patients were MRI of the spinal cord were normal,64 patients were abnormal and 32 patients of brain lesions in the head MRI.In the NMO group,MRI of the spinal cord were all abnormal,and there were 28 patients were brain lesions in the head MRI.The serum positive rate of NMO group was 41.7％,and the serum positive rate of NMOSD group was 59.7％.The sensitivity of AQP4-Ab antibody to NMO was 44.4％,the specificity was 75％,the sensitivity of AQP4-Ab was 61.1％,and the specificity of NMOSD was 75％.Conclusion The NMOSD is more with female patients,the first symptom is more with the spinal cord that the gray matter involvement in the spinal cord,and the performance of complex,NMO-IgG antibody can be used as a support for NMOSD diagnosis.
