Outbreaks of Unexplained Neurologic Illness
― Muzaffarpur, India, 2013–2014

The 2013 and 2014 Muzaffarpur investigations indicate that this outbreak illness is an acute noninflammatory encephalopathy. This is supported by clinical and laboratory findings, inclusive of negative diagnostic results for the most common pathogens that cause infectious encephalitis in this region.

Analysis of nutritional indices and other host factors is planned to search for an explanation for the lack of clustering of cases in these outbreaks. Until an etiology for this illness is identified, current public health and clinical recommendations are focused on reducing mortality by ensuring families with affected children rapidly access medical attention, and health care providers promptly assess for and correct hypoglycemia.
