Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of immunosuppressive therapy in neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) during pregnancy.
METHODS: Sixteen NMOSD patients who had at least one pregnancy after NMOSD onset were enrolled. The patients were divided into two groups according to whether they received immunosuppressive therapy during pregnancy. The annual relapse rate (ARR) before pregnancy (BP); during the first (DP1), second (DP2), and third trimesters (DP3); first trimester postpartum (PP1); and second trimester postpartum (PP2) were calculated. The Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) was used to evaluate the degree of disability. Pregnancy outcomes were recorded and the children were followed up and their health condition was evaluated.
