Filter by:This study examines the effect of adjuvant therapy with the oral beta-agonist Salbutamol in patients with generalized myasthenia gravis on stable standard of care having residual symptoms.
Danish patients with myasthenia gravis are asked to answer a validated and international questionnaire about physical activity. Also background questions about their disease and comorbidity are asked. To validate the data about physical activity from the questionnaires 69 patients are asked to wear an accelerometer for 7 days to measure activity level.
The aim of this study is to investigate if rhythmic auditory stimulation can influence walking speed, during a 6MWT in patients with myasthenia gravis (MG).
The study is a controlled, randomized intervention trial. Patients are randomized into either an intervention group or a control group. The duration of the study is 10 weeks. Patients in the intervention group participate in a 10 weeks exercise program consisting of 150 minutes interval walking per week administered by an app on the patient's telephone. Patients in the control group live as usually, with a maximum of 30 minutes aerobic exercise per week. Before and after the 10 weeks study period, patients (from both the intervention and the control group) participate in a 2 hours session of functional testing (e.g. walk tests, test of muscle strength ect.) at Rigshospitalet.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of M281 in participants with generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG)
The purpose of the current study is to assess safety/tolerability and key pharmacodynamic (PD) effects that are considered to be associated with clinical benefit (reduction of total IgG and anti-AChR-IgG) in Myasthenia Gravis patients following treatment with RVT-1401 (also known as IMVT-1401) compared to placebo.
The objective of this study is to compare the effectiveness of a personalized patient education program to the current hospital education and evaluate its impact using patient satisfaction scores. The investigators hypothesize that a personalized patient education intervention will increase patient's understanding of their diagnosis and satisfaction with the care as reflected in the survey results.
Objective: To comparatively analyze long-term results and complications of transcervical (TCT) and transsternal thymectomy (TST) in a randomized controlled trial with a mean follow-up of ten years. Results: Outcomes 10 years after surgery by MGFA post-intervention status showed that complete stable remission was achieved in 8 (21.6%) patients of the TCT group, and in 20 patients (55.5%) of the TST group. Conclusions: Transcervical and transsternal thymectomy are safe and result in significant improvement of patients with Myasthenia Gravis. TST has superior results in terms of complete stable remission at 10 years.
Blepharoptosis (incomplete opening of the eyelids) occurs because of a disruption in the normal agonist-antagonist neuro-muscular complex balance. An external device could restore eyelid movement. A newer class of permanent magnets made of alloys of neodymium (Nd), iron (Fe) and boron (B) might provide the technology needed to develop a feasible external magnetic device that could restore eyelid movement.
The purpose of this study is to create a Yale University Department of Neurology Myasthenia Gravis (MG) registry that will be used for current and future research projects involving the study of Myasthenia Gravis.
