abstract = {Autoimmune psychosis (AP) and other autoimmune psychiatric
syndromes (APS) are associated with central nervous system
antibodies. This study investigated related magnetic
resonance spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) signatures and their
correlations with electroencephalography (EEG),
cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and
psychometric/neuropsychological measures.Twenty-eight adults
with suspected antibody-positive AP spectrum syndromes were
compared with 28 matched healthy controls. Inclusion in the
patient group was based on the APS concept, resulting in a
heterogeneous group with uniform autoimmunity. MRSI was
performed using a spiral-encoded Mescher-Garwood localized
adiabatic selective refocusing 3D-MRSI sequence.
Glutamate+glutamine (Glx), gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA),
total N-acetylaspartate (tNAA), and total creatine (tCr)
were reported as ratios to tNAA and/or tCr. EEG was analyzed
for intermittent rhythmic delta/theta activity (IRDA/IRTA)
using independent component analysis.No significant
differences in Glx, GABA, tNAA, or tCr ratios were observed
between patients and controls. Correlation analyses in
patients showed a trend for a negative association of the
IRDA/IRTA rate before hyperventilation with the GABA/tCr
ratio in both hippocampi and with the GABA/tNAA ratio in the
left hippocampus and Glx/tCr ratio in the right putamen and
pallidum. Significant positive correlations were observed
between inflammatory CSF markers (white blood cell count and
IgG Index) and GABA/tCr and GABA/tNAA ratios in the left
caudate nucleus and right isthmus cingulate and thalamus, as
well as between negative symptoms in PANSS and higher
GABA/tCr ratios in the right putamen.No group differences
were identified; however, correlations suggest a link
between neuroinflammatory CSF markers and negative symptoms
with GABAergic signaling in patients. Multimodal diagnostic
approaches may provide a better understanding of the link
between neuroinflammation, neurochemistry, and EEG slowing.},
