Increased serum NfL levels reflect neuro-axonal damage in anti-NMDAR encephalitis. No relationship was identified with disease severity, while the association with outcome was confounded by age. The implied role of sampling timing on NfL levels also limits the applicability of NfL as a prognostic marker.
