An autoimmune mechanism involving ZSCAN1 antibody is proposed to contribute to the pathogenesis of the disease. However, the clinical significance of the anti-ZSCAN1 antibody titer remains unestablished.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Objective<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This work aims to clarify the clinical features at onset or first visit to hospitals and the significance of anti-ZSCAN1 and anti-Nax antibody titers by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in patient serum.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>An observational cohort study was conducted of patients diagnosed clinically with ROHHAD (-NET) syndrome in Japan.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Obesity was observed in 72.7% of cases, while autonomic dysregulation and central hypoventilation were observed in 18.2% and 36.2% of cases, respectively. Serum prolactin levels measured at the initial consultation were significantly elevated in all cases. Antibody analyses revealed positivity in 70% of 30 cases. The anti-ZSCAN1 antibody titer associated with neural crest tumors (NCTs) was significantly higher than that without tumors. In a patient with NCT, the trend of anti-ZSCAN1 antibody titer tended to be decreased after tumor resection or immunosuppressive therapy.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study suggests that we need to evaluate clinically and in detail the autonomic dysregulation and hypoventilation to diagnose ROHHAD (-NET) syndrome in its early stages. Additionally, anti-ZSCAN1 antibody titers reflect the association of NCTs and may serve as a potential marker for the efficacy of tumor therapy. We also propose the anti-ZSCAN1 antibody titer as an indicator for the clinical management of ROHHAD (-NET) syndrome.<\/jats:p>\n
