Arch Neurol 66:458-464, Niehusmann,P.,et al, 2009
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Anti-NMDAR encephalitis accounts for a relevant proportion of otherwise unexplained new-onset epilepsies. Patients harboring NMDAR antibodies usually have prominent psychiatric symptoms and pleocytosis, and they may develop hypoventilation. Anti-NMDAR encephalitis is not always paraneoplastic.
