| description | Autoimmune encephalitis is an inflammatory neurological disorder characterized by psychiatric symptoms, cognitive impairment, and focal neurological deficits or seizures. Sleep disturbances are not a major consideration in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with autoimmune encephalitis. Various types of sleep disturbances are frequent, severe, and long-lasting, which can compromise the recovery and quality of life in patients with autoimmune encephalitis. Sleep disorders in patients with autoimmune encephalitis have received limited attention, and the prevalence and pathophysiological mechanisms of sleep disorders remain unclear. Recent studies have suggested that early recognition of specific sleep disturbances may provide clues for diagnosing autoimmune encephalitis. Furthermore, early diagnosis and treatment of sleep disturbances can promote recovery and improve long-term outcomes in patients with autoimmune encephalitis. In this report, we aimed to provide a comprehensive and extensive understanding of the clinical relevance of autoimmune encephalitis and specific related sleep disorders. |
