101 The Diagnosis of Ocular Myasthenia GravisThe diagnosis of myasthenia gravis (MG) based on history and physical examination alone is difficult. Ancillary testing, such as Tensilon or Prostigmin responsiveness, acetylcholine receptor antibody assay (Ach Rab), repetitive nerve stimulation and single fiber EMG (SFEMG), is used to confirm the c...Myasthenia Gravis; Diagnosis; Ancillary Testing; Acetylcholine Receptor Antibody Assay; Single Fiber EMGNeuro-ophthalmology Virtual Education Library: NOVEL http://NOVEL.utah.edu

109 Cigarette Smoking and Activities of Daily Living in Ocular Myasthenia Gravis"Myasthenia Gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disorder of the neuromuscular junction most often caused by autoantibodies targeting the acetylcholine receptor (AChR). Cigarette smoking is known to affect neuronal AChRs and it has been shown to influence other autoimmune diseases, but the effect of cigaret...Myasthenia Gravis, Neuroophthalmology & Systemic DiseaseNeuro-ophthalmology Virtual Education Library: NOVEL http://NOVEL.utah.edu
110 Concurrent Medical Therapy in Myasthenia GravisPatients with myasthenia gravis (MG) often require treatment with drugs for other, intercurrent medical conditions, as well as with the drugs used for the management of MG itself. Clinical observation over many years has led to an appreciation that such concurrent treatment with any of a large numbe...Myasthenia gravis, Concurrent treatment, Neuromuscular junction, Aminoglycoside, StatinNeuro-ophthalmology Virtual Education Library: NOVEL http://NOVEL.utah.edu
111 Primary Immunosuppresive Treatment of Ocular Myasthenia Gravis with Cyclosporine AImmunosuppressive therapy for ocular myasthenia gravis (MG) has usually consisted of systemic corticosteroids or azathioprine. Although each drug can induce a remission, each has drawbacks. Cyclosporine A (CsA) has been demonstrated in a controlled trial to be effective and safe in the suppression o...Immunosuppressive Treatment; Ocular Myasthenia Gravis; Cyclosporine ANeuro-ophthalmology Virtual Education Library: NOVEL http://NOVEL.utah.edu

116 Immunologic Biomarkers of Ocular Myasthenia Gravis in ChildrenPediatric onset myasthenia gravis (MG) is profoundly understudied and development of novel therapeutics is compromised by the lack of biomarkers. The immunologic profile of children with ocular (OMG) has not been investigated. The purpose of this study was to determine the IgG subclass and cytokine ...Pediatric Myasthenia Gravis; IgG Subclass Profile; Cytokine ProfileNeuro-ophthalmology Virtual Education Library: NOVEL http://NOVEL.utah.edu
