Grant Activity:
Identifying and treating patients with psychosis who are positive to anti-neuronal antibodies
Purpose:

Psychosis is a mental illness for which the cause is unknown. We reported 5 of 113 patients with psychosis had inflammation in their central nervous system. Treatment with immunotherapy resulted in full remission. Identifying patients with psychosis who have an autoimmune illness affecting their brain is critical to ensuring they receive appropriate treatment. This study will enable detection of autoimmune illness in patients with psychosis so as to ensure the best clinical outcomes.
