Repeated acetylcholine receptor antibody-concentrations and association to clinical myasthenia gravis development.

INTRODUCTION: We aimed to examine the longitudinal association between Myasthenia Gravis (MG) clinical severity and concentration of acetylcholine receptor (AChR)-antibodies to evaluate if AChR-antibody variations correlate to disease severity. A positive AChR-antibody test is specific for MG. MATER...
