The main outcomes included longitudinal functional scales, seizure frequency and the number of antiseizure medications. Measures encompassed NORSE-related clinical parameters such as the duration of unconsciousness, immunotherapy profiles, cytokine\/chemokine analysis, and serial MRI scans.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>A total of 74 patients with cNORSE were finally analysed (mean age: 38.0\u00b118.2; 36 (48.6%) male). All patients received first-line immunotherapy, and 91.9% (68\/74) received second-line immunotherapy. A total of 83.8% (62\/74) regained consciousness within a median duration of 30 days (14\u201356), and 50% (31\/62) achieved good outcome (mRS \u22642) at 2 years. Poor 1-year outcomes (mRS \u22653) were predicted by the presence of mesial temporal lobe (mTL) and extra-mTL lesions at 3-month MRI, and prolonged unconsciousness (\u226560 days). Those with mTL atrophy exhibited a higher seizure burden post-NORSE. The optimal duration of immunotherapy appeared to be between 18 weeks and 1-year post-NORSE onset.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>This study elucidates longitudinal clinical dynamics, functional outcomes, prognostic factors and immunotherapy response in patients with cNORSE.
