Download or read book Myasthenia Gravis and Related Disorders written by Henry J. Kaminski and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-03-02 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advances in the study and understanding of myasthenia gravis have led to the need for the publication of this important new edition. The goal of Myasthenia Gravis and Related Disorders, Second Edition is identical to the first -- to provide the clinician and the scientist with a common resource for understanding this complex disorder. This new edition begins with discussions of neuromuscular junction structure and function and follows with updated chapters covering a wide range of topics, such as the acetylcholine receptor, clinical presentation, diagnostic evaluation, and treatment. Importantly, new supplemental chapters have been added; these discuss rigorous clinical assessments of patients for research trials and the epidemiology and genetics of myasthenia gravis. The discussion of the most challenging aspects of myasthenia gravis, its impact on patients’ psychological make-up, has been expanded as well. Myasthenia Gravis and Related Disorders, Second Edition retains the “personal approach” of the authors regarding treatment and is a valuable resource for meeting the many and varied needs of patients with myasthenia gravis.

Book Synopsis Selected Topics in Myasthenia Gravis by : Isam Jaber Al-Zwaini
Download or read book Selected Topics in Myasthenia Gravis written by Isam Jaber Al-Zwaini and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2019-06-12 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Myasthenia gravis is a rare potentially fatal chronic autoimmune disorder. Circulating autoantibodies directed against components of the neuromuscular junction of skeletal muscles, most commonly nicotinic acetylcholine receptor and associated protein in the postsynaptic membrane, block neuromuscular transmission resulting in muscle weakness. This muscle weakness typically worsens with continued activity, improves on rest, and is of variable severity ranging from mild ocular muscle weakness to severe generalized muscle weakness, involving the respiratory muscle with impending respiratory failure. The worldwide prevalence of myasthenia gravis is 100-200 per million population, affecting more than 700,000 people all over the world. The prevalence rate has increased since the 1950s due to improved diagnostic precision and decreased mortality rate.

Download or read book Myasthenia Gravis and Related Disorders written by Mark A. Agius and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 584 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Myasthenia gravis is the best-understood autoimmune disorder and its intense investigation has provided insights into the pathogenesis of autoimmune disease in general and the basic mechanisms of synaptic transmission. The papers in this volume report research findings on the mechanisms of disease, diagnosis and treatment of myasthenia gravis and related diseases. Other papers examine the advances in knowledge about the physiology, biochemistry, genetics, and the structure of the neuromuscular junction as well as advances in the immunology of pre-and post-synaptic disorders of the junction. Papers also discuss the clinical management of myasthenia gravis and related disorders.

Download or read book Myasthenia gravis and myasthenic syndrome written by Sics Editore and published by SICS Editore. This book was released on 2014-10-01 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Myasthenia gravis is arare autoimmune disease, in which the function of the myoneural junction of the voluntary muscles is impaired Annual incidence is about 2–8/1 000 000. Symptoms include variable degrees of fatigue and weakness in voluntary musculature, which is aggravated by strain and relieved by rest. Two main types: limited to the eye muscles, or ocular (ca. 15% of the cases) generalised; the symptoms are usually most prominent in the proximal muscles of the shoulder and pelvic region. Treatment is the domain of a specialist in neurology. Remember that patients with myasthenia are very sensitive to drugs: check always the compatibility with myasthenia when starting a new drug for a myasthenic patient!

Download or read book Myasthenia Gravis and Related Disorders II written by Gil Wolfe and published by Wiley-Blackwell. This book was released on 2013-01-22 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Myasthenia gravis (MG), an acquired immune syndrome affecting proteins at the neuromuscular junction, causes significant muscular functional impairment and can compromise patients’ quality of life, including fatigue, disability, and increased mortality rates. Continued efforts in the last decades have begun to produce significant progress in our understanding of this rare condition, yet considerable challenges remain for improving diagnosis and developing effective treatments for MG. The present volume comprises papers stemming from the “12th International Conference on Myasthenia Gravis and Related Disorders,” held May 21–23, 2012 at the New York Academy of Sciences in New York City. The papers collected in this second of two Annals volumes highlight some of the key developments in neuroscience and immunology in MG and related syndromes presented at the conference, including treatment update and what lies ahead, congenital myasthenic syndromes, Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome, the thymus, thymectomy, and the myasthenia gravis thymectomy trial, and hot topics selected from submitted abstracts.
