IgG4‐Related Disease Overlapping With Anti‐Acetylcholine Receptor Antibody–Positive Myasthenia Gravis

Clinical and Experimental Neuroimmunology, Volume 17, Issue 3, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background IgG4‐related disease (IgG4‐RD) is a systemic, immune‐mediated, fibroinflammatory disorder with multiorgan involvement and variable clinical presentation, often creating diagnostic difficulty. Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an antibody‐mediated autoimmune disorder of the neuromuscular junction, most commonly associated with anti ...

Disproportional ventilatory response to incremental exercise in individuals with cerebral palsy

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, Volume 68, Issue 8, Page 1139-1151, August 2026.
Individuals with cerebral palsy demonstrate a disproportionate ventilatory response during incremental exercise. Compared with typically developing peers, respiratory frequency increases earlier and at comparable exercise intensities, contributing to higher perceived exertion and reduced ventilatory efficiency. At task failure, respiratory frequency is

Thymectomy in the treatment of ocular myasthenia gravis

The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2001
Thymectomy is an effective and accepted treatment for myasthenia gravis, but thymectomy for ocular myasthenia gravis (Osserman stage I) is controversial.To assess the efficacy and propriety of thymectomy for the treatment of ocular myasthenia gravis.We conducted a review and follow-up of all patients who had thymectomy for the treatment of ocular ...

The Diagnostic Accuracy of the Second Revision of the European Academy of Neurology/Peripheral Nerve Society Guideline for Diagnosing Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyradiculoneuropathy

European Journal of Neurology, Volume 33, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Diagnosing chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) relies on clinical and electrodiagnostic features. In 2021, the European Academy of Neurology/Peripheral Nerve Society (EAN/PNS) revised the CIDP guideline, superseding the 2010 European Federation of Neurological Societies (EFNS)/PNS guideline.

The Anti-Acetylcholine Receptor Antibody Test in Suspected Ocular Myasthenia Gravis

Journal of Ophthalmology, 2014
Aim. To estimate the clinical significance of anti-acetylcholine receptor antibody (anti-AChR-Ab) levels in suspected ocular myasthenia gravis. Methods. In total, 144 patients complaining of fluctuating diplopia and ptosis were evaluated for serum levels

Ocular Myasthenia Gravis: Controversies and Updates

Current Neurology and Neuroscience Reports, 2013
The majority of patients with myasthenia gravis (MG) initially present with ocular symptoms. An unresolved question is whether there are clinical features at onset to guide clinicians to predict an individual patient's conversion risk from ocular MG (OMG) to generalized disease, or "secondary generalized MG" (SGMG), that is, a prognostic model.

Effects of Meal Consumption on Isotonic Lingual Endurance in Healthy Adults: A Multi‐Institutional Study

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, Volume 53, Issue 8, Page 1436-1446, August 2026.
Isotonic tongue endurance was measured pre‐ and post‐meal using the Iowa Oral Performance Instrument (IOPI) in healthy younger (18–35 years) and older (≥ 65 years) adults. Older adults demonstrated greater isotonic endurance and longer mealtimes, with no sex differences in endurance.

Thyroid associated orbitopathy with ocular myasthenia in primary hypothyroidism: Keep those eyes open

Indian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2013
Thyroid associated orbitopathy, although seen most commonly with thyrotoxicosis, is also known to occur in primary hypothyroidism. Myasthenia gravis is an autoimmune condition with an established association with autoimmune thyroid disease. We report the
