Clinical efficacy of IVIg and PAIA. (A) Significant decreases in mRS scores were observed at 30 days and 90 days after IVIg treatment (30 days, Z = -3.494, p < 0.001; 90 days, Z = -4.562, p < 0.001) and PAIA treatment (30 days, Z = -3.852, p < 0.001; 90 days, Z = -4.178, p < 0.001). (B) Significant decreases in CASE scores were also observed at 30 days and 90 days after IVIg treatment (30 days, t = 7.762, p < 0.001; 90 days, t = 11.949, p < 0.001) and PAIA treatment (30 days, t = 8.782, p < 0.001; 90 days, Z = -4.079, p < 0.001). mRS, modified Rankin scale; CASE, Clinical Assessment Scale for Autoimmune Encephalitis; IVIg, intravenous immunoglobulin; PAIA, protein A immunoadsorption. *P<0.025.
