Neuro-ophthalmological and gastrointestinal symptoms also occur. The symptoms are caused by neuronal excitability due to impaired inhibitory (gamma amino butyric acid [GABA] and glycine) neurotransmission. SPS is part of a larger spectrum of GAD antibody-spectrum disorders, which overlaps with autoimmune epilepsy, cerebellar ataxia, myoclonus, progressive encephalomyelitis, rigidity and myoclonus (PERM) and limbic encephalitis. PERM is often caused by antibodies against the glycine receptor. Some SPS cases are paraneoplastic. Diagnostic delay is often associated with irreversible disability, and therefore, clinicians need a high degree of clinical suspicion to make an earlier diagnosis. This review updates the various clinical presentations that should raise suspicion of SPS and its related conditions and includes a diagnostic algorithm and various treatment strategies including immunotherapy and GABA-ergic drugs.</p>","PeriodicalId":39343,"journal":{"name":"PRACTICAL NEUROLOGY","volume":" ","pages":"6-17"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-01-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142120802","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The diagnosis and management of cryptococcal meningitis have substantially changed in recent years. Cryptococcal meningitis often occurs in people living with advanced HIV infection, though in high-income countries with robust HIV detection and treatment programmes, it increasingly occurs in other groups, notably solid-organ transplant recipients, other immunosuppressed patients and even immunocompetent hosts. This review outlines the clinical presentation, management and prognosis of cryptococcal meningitis, including its salient differences in people living with HIV compared with HIV-negative patients.
