Predictors of Relapsing MOGAD: A Scoping Review

Abstract

Before This scoping review was conducted with the aim of generating an understanding of the current literature about predictors of relapsing myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody associated disease (R-MOGAD). The primary outcome was to identify the most suitable predictors to be inputted into the primary analysis of the statistical model for the Study Protocol - modelling predictors for relapsing disease in MOGAD, doi.org/10.17639/nott.7368. Choosing the right independent variables that are causative and not confounding is key to a successful logistic regression model. The secondary outcome was to find alternative, less investigated potential predictors to be inputted into the model as a sensitivity analysis. It also provided guidance on what future research should focus on by contextualising each predictor and their given parameters.
