Remote Monitoring in Myasthenia Gravis: Exploring Symptom Variability

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 13, Issue 6, Page 1106-1117, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Myasthenia gravis (MG) is a rare, autoimmune disorder characterized by fluctuating muscle weakness and potential life‐threatening crises. While continuous specialized care is essential, access barriers often delay timely interventions. To address this, we developed MyaLink, a telemedical platform for MG patients.

Pure Red Cell Aplasia as an Isolated Paraneoplastic Manifestation of Thymoma: A Case Report and Literature Review

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Thymomas are epithelial tumors of the anterior mediastinum and are frequently associated with paraneoplastic autoimmune disorders. Pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) is a rare but clinically significant complication, caused by immune‐mediated suppression of erythropoiesis.

The impact of thymectomy in subgroups of Myasthenia gravis patients: a single center longitudinal observation

open access: yesNeurological Research and Practice, 2023
Background Myasthenia gravis (MG) is a rare neuromuscular disorder. Symptoms can range from ptosis only to life threatening myasthenic crisis. Thymectomy is recommended for anti-acetylcholine receptor-antibody positive patients with early-onset MG. Here,

Tacrolimus as Single‐Agent Immunotherapy for Adult‐Onset Myasthenia Gravis: Remission, Relapse, and Safety

open access: yesCNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 6, June 2026.
Tacrolimus monotherapy yields high remission in adult‐onset MG, especially in new‐onset or younger patients. Relapse is linked to low tacrolimus concentration and rapid tapering. Hyperglycemia was the most common ADR. Long‐term use may increase cancer risk.

Pure Red Cell Aplasia Associated with Thymolipoma: Complete Anaemia Resolution following Thymectomy

open access: yesCase Reports in Hematology, 2018
Pure red cell aplasia is an uncommon cause of anaemia rarely associated with thymoma. A combination of immunosuppressive therapy and thymectomy offers a potential cure. Thymectomy alone rarely results in anaemia resolution.

Comorbidities and Treatment Patterns in People With Myasthenia Gravis in Denmark, Finland and Sweden: A Population‐Based Observational Study

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, Volume 73, Issue 6, Page 1044-1057, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Comorbidities are frequent in myasthenia gravis (MG) and may affect treatment choices. Conversely, MG treatments may impact the risk of comorbidity. Our objective was to examine comorbidity and MG treatment patterns in nationwide MG cohorts in Denmark, Finland, and Sweden. Methods We included individuals with ≥ 2 MG diagnoses
