Advances in the understanding of disease mechanisms of autoimmune neuromuscular junction disorders

Maartje G. Huijbers et al.

Summary: Immunosuppressive treatments for autoimmune neuromuscular junction disorders are available, but a cure has not yet been found. Recent advances in understanding the structure and function of the neuromuscular junction have provided insight into the pathophysiology of these diseases and laid the foundation for the development of new therapeutic strategies.

Characteristics of myasthenia gravis in elderly patients: a retrospective study

Yi Li et al.

Summary: The incidence of myasthenia gravis (MG) is increasing, and characteristics of MG in elderly patients differ from younger patients. However, older age is not an independent factor associated with achieving minimal manifestation status (MMS).

Clinical features, treatment and prognosis of MuSK antibody-associated myasthenia gravis in Northwest China: a single-centre retrospective cohort study

Sijia Zhao et al.

Summary: Patients with MuSK-MG showed a female predominance, with an average age of onset at 40.28 years and a median disease course of 30.50 months. Ocular manifestation was the most common onset symptom, and there was an obvious positive correlation between QMG score and MuSK-ab titer in all patients.
