Br J Psychiatry 187:314-9. 2005..CONCLUSIONS: Our findings support the hypothesis that central nervous system autoimmunity may have a role in a significant subgroup of cases of OCD. Further study is required to examine whether the antibodies concerned are pathogenic...
Adult-onset tic disorder, motor stereotypies, and behavioural disturbance associated with antibasal ganglia antibodiesMark J Edwards
Sobell Department of Movement Neuroscience and Movement Disorders, Institute of Neurology, University College London, Queen Square, London, United Kingdom
Mov Disord 19:1190-6. 2004..We suggest that there might be a causal relationship between ABGA and the clinical syndrome in these cases and that ABGA should be considered as a possible etiology for adult-onset tics...
