Neopterin, KYN/TRP ratio and KYNA/(3-HK + QA) for patients with encephalitis (n = 7) and ASM (n = 10) measured at admission in comparison with a previously reported control group consisting of patients with no pleocytosis in the CSF21. Data shown are medians with IQR. Asterisks above patients groups indicate significant difference vs controls (Mann Whitney U test); **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001. aKYN/TRP ratio as a measure of IDO activity. KYN: kynurenine, TRP: tryptophan, KYNA: kynurenic acid, 3-HK: 3-hydroxykynurenine, QA: quinolinic acid.
