Autoimmune encephalitis is a rare and debilitating disease. An important question in clinical neurology is what factors may be correlated with outcomes in autoimmune encephalitis. There is observational data describing statistical analyses on such variables, but there are no review articles that collaborate and interpret this information. This data in brief article represents the data collection for such a review (Broadley et al., 2018).Herein we summarize clinical information from 44 research articles, in particular pertaining to outcomes and prognostic variables.
