View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground: Myasthenia gravis (MG) and idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) are autoimmune disorders that can co-occur, complicating diagnosis and treatment. The molecular mechanisms underlying this comorbidity are not well understood.
Objective: This study aims to identify common differentially expressed genes (co-DEGs) between MG and IIM to elucidate shared pathogenic pathways and potential therapeutic targets.

January 2025
Department of Neurology, Sanjay Gandhi Post Graduate Institute of Medical Sciences, Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India.
Background And Objectives: There is paucity of studies on long-term remission of autoimmune generalized myasthenia gravis (MG) from Southeast Asia. We report the outcome predictors of generalized MG and also evaluate the influence of high- versus low-dose prednisolone and prednisolone with or without azathioprine (AZA).
Methods: Fifty-seven patients with generalized MG were included, who completed 2 years of follow-up.
