Antibody-associated disorders such MOGAD and NMOSD rely on antibody tests for their diagnosis, rendering accessibility to testing paramount to the care and treatment of people with MOGAD and NMOSD.
ISNI is pleased to support a worldwide survey on AQP4- and MOG-IgG testing accessibility and laboratory testing strategies with the aiming of mapping the current access to AQP4-IgG and MOG-IgG testing and to understand issues that limit testing access around the world.
Two surveys are available: one for neurologists who request testing and the other one for head scientists and immunopathologists who provide the testing.
Please consider spending 12 minutes to complete one of the surveys.
Learn more & access the survey here: isniweb.org/testing-survey

Thx so much for a gt review. Like u I admire her openess about having MS. In a recent NPR intv, Christina Applegate said she had bought her own burial plot. Morbid or practical? Me-practical.
V different to Ann Romney MS experience.

Our new paper in Journal of Neurology 👉 link.springer.com/10.1007/s0…
Relapse prediction in #MOGAD could help treatment decisions but remains challenging.
We externally validated the MOG-AR score and found that it overestimated relapse risk and did not predict relapse well.
