CASPR2 Autoimmunity in Children Expanding to Mild Encephalopathy with Hypertension
Neurol 94:e2290-e2301,953, Syrbe, S.,et al, 2020
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
High-titer CASPR2 antibodies are associated with Morvan syndrome in children as young as 2 years. However, CASPR2 autoimmunity mimics systemic disease and hypertensive encephalopathy in children younger than 7 years. The outcome following immunotherapy was mostly favorable; long-term behavioral impairment may occur in younger children.
