Sumario:Mingyu Wei, 1 Zuowei Duan 2 1Medical College of Yangzhou University, Yangzhou 225000, Jiangsu, People’s Republic of China; 2Department of Neurology, The Affiliated Hospital of Yangzhou University, Yangzhou 225000, Jiangsu, People’s Republic of ChinaCorrespondence: Zuowei DuanEmail jydzw061344@163.comWe recently read the original report by Lin and colleagues with great interest. In this study, the authors concluded that both serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels of CXCL13, a B cell chemotactic factor, were significantly higher in patients with anti-leucine-rich glioma-inactivated protein 1 (anti-LGI1) encephalitis compared to non-inflammatory neurologic disorder control groups. 1 However, we have some concerns about the interpretation of their data.View the original paper by Lin and colleagues.
