The original version of this article unfortunately contained a mistake.

Disease durations, CSF/serum/CSF–serum pairs, IgG subclasses, and clinical ratings. a Latency (in months) between disease manifestation and antibody diagnostics in the antibody-positive cases with known disease onset. The lines indicate medians with quartiles. Antibody groups are given in ascending order of their median latencies. A₁: linear x-axis, A₂: logarithmic x-axis (note that “1” was added to all values to be able to include values of zero). b Ratio of cases with serum-only or CSF-only antibody positivity in the four major antibody groups plus onconeural and GABABR antibodies. The small groups with serum-only and CSF-only findings in the GAD65 group are cases with either very low CSF titers (N = 3) and negative serum or serum titers of just 1:500 and negative CSF samples (N = 2). In the onconeural group, there was one Ma2 case that was not fully appreciated in serum (blot positivity only) but clearly diagnosed in CSF (blot and tissue-based assay positive). c IgG subclasses in the four major antibody groups. d Clinical retrospective ratings (“Autoimmune disease of the CNS or PNS?”) in descending order of the positive ratings
