Overview
Risk Factors
Infections
- The pathogens remain mostly unknown[1].
- The prodromal phase is characterised by flu-like symptoms (56-61%) and non-specific upper respiratory or gastrointestinal manifestations. The latent period varies from 4 to 41 days[2].
- Viral exanthems usually precede the onset of pediatric ADEM[3].
- The most common associated pathogens are viruses namely, Epstein-Barr, measles, mumps, rubella and coxsackie B[4]. Bacteria like Borrelia burgdorferi, Legionella and Mycoplasma are infrequently reported[5][6].
- ADEM shows a seasonal variation with increased incidence in winter and spring, probably due to the changes in the distribution of the implicated agents.
Vaccinations
- Immunisation is the precipitating factor for less than 5% of ADEM cases[7].
- The most frequent occurrences are with measles, mumps and rubella vaccines.
- The latent period varies from 2 to 30 days.
Genetic susceptibility
- An association between ADEM and HLA-DR genes has been elucidated in a recent study.
- Patients with congenital adrenal hyperplasia or acquired adrenal insufficiency have been reported to suffer from a sequelae of encephalopathy with white matter lesions.
