Glucose metabolic pattern of anti–NMDAR encephalitis patients. Independent sample t-test was used to compare SUVR) of each ROI between the encephalitis group (n = 24) and control group (n = 24). Thirty-five brain areas with hyper- or hypometabolism of the encephalitis group compared to the control group were depicted with a statistically significant difference (FDR P < 0.05), including 19 brain regions with hypermetabolism in red and 16 brain regions with hypometabolism in blue. The T-maps show a typical pattern of anteroposterior glucose metabolism gradient in anti-NMDAR encephalitis patients. SUVR, standardized uptake value ratio; ROI, region of interest
