Clinical Characteristics and Treatment Management of Seronegative Myasthenia Gravis: A Systematic Review of the Literature

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seronegative myasthenia gravis (SNMG) is characterized by the absence of detectable autoantibodies against known MG targets, despite clinical and electrophysiological evidence of a postsynaptic neuromuscular junction disorder. The aim of this systematic review was to better define clinical features, diagnostic clues and treatment outcome of ...
