LETM and AQP4-IgG seropositivity were strong predictors of spinal movement disorders, while MOG-IgG and African American race are protective factors. Recently published data from a prospective observational study revealed that spinal-generated movement disorders are highly prevalent in non-multiple sclerosis (MS) demyelinating disorders of the spinal cord and their prevalence rates were much higher than the rates reported in MS. Overall, the prevalence was highest in aquaporin-4-positive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (AQP4+ NMOSD) and lowest in myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody disorder (MOGAD).
