Aims And Objectives: The aim is to study the recurrence and role of steroid-sparing agents in THS.
Introduction: There is scarce literature regarding the clinical course, comorbidities and long-term outcomes after myasthenic crisis (MC). The natural history of myasthenia gravis (MG) in this subset remains uncertain.
Methods: The study included a cohort admitted with MC (2007-2017) in a tertiary care hospital.
Introduction: In chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP), emphasis has been on motor disabilities, and autonomic dysfunction in these patients has not been addressed systematically.

Objectives: To determine the proportion of refractory status epilepticus (RSE) and super-RSE (SRSE) among patients with status epilepticus (SE) and to analyze RSE and non-RSE (NRSE) in terms of etiology and predictors for RSE.
Materials And Methods: Patients were identified from discharge summaries database with keywords of SE and records of the portable electroencephalogram (EEG) machine from January 2011 to March 2016.
Results: Two hundred and eighteen events were included in the study with 114 (52.
