Table 5. Examples of characteristic clinical findings in LE subtypes.

(Table adapted from Lancaster, 2016 [70])

NMDA-R = N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor, AMPAR = α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid receptor, GABA-Br = gamma-amino butyric acid receptor type B, LGI1 = leucine-rich, glioma inactivated, CASPR2 = contactin-associated protein-like 2, GAD = glutamic acid decarboxylase

Clinical finding	Associated Antibody Subtype
Psychotic symptoms	NMDA-R, AMPAR, GABA-BR
Movement disorders	NMDA-R
Status epilepticus	GABA-BR (more characteristics)  NMDA-R (more common)
Fasciobrachial dystonic seizures	LGI-1 (precedes diagnosis)
Peripheral motor hyperexcitability	CASPR2 (more common) > LGI1
Stiff-person syndrome	GAD65
Cranial neuropathies	Ma2, Hu
Cerebellitis	GAD65
