Myasthenia Gravis: Clinical Guidelines. Introduction. There have been a number of publications on guidelines on MG diagnosis and treatment, and there are slightly different approaches and practices according to the authors' experience and target audience. Our guidelines are directed to European clinicians with little
Myasthenia gravis is the most common autoimmune disease affecting the neuromuscular junction and is characterised by painless fatigable muscle weakness. It is caused by autoantibodies against neuromuscular junction proteins, either the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (AChR) or the muscle specific tyrosine kinase.
Myasthenia Gravis. • A neuromuscular disorder characterized by weakness and fatigability of skeletal muscles. • The underlying defect: A decrease in the number of available acetylcholine receptors. (AChRs) at neuromuscular junctions due to an antibody-mediated autoimmune attack. • Preferable name: Autoimmune
Myasthenia gravis (MG) is the most common pri- mary disorder of neuromuscular transmission. It is characterised clinically by fluctuating painless muscle weakness, which worsens with exercise and towards the end of the day, and improves with rest. It is usually caused by antibodies to postsynaptic pro- teins, of which three
19 Dec 2017 Full-text (PDF) | Myasthenia gravis (MG) is arguably the best understood autoimmune disease, and its study has also led to fundamental appreciation of mechanisms of neuromuscular transmission. MG is caused by antibodies against the acetylcholine receptor (AChR), which produce a compromise in the e
31 Oct 2012 Acquired myasthenia gravis is a relatively uncommon disorder, with prevalence rates that have increased to about 20 per 100,000 in the US population. This autoimmune disease is characterized by muscle weakness that fluctuates, worsening with exertion, and improving with rest. In about two-thirds of the
