Brief Summary

Our study proposed the epidemiology, demographic data, clinical characteristics, investigation data, treatment and prognosis of ION in Thailand.

However, because of its rarity, our data was still small and further study needs to be carried out to identify more specific clinical entity of each specific pathogen of ION.
