Introduction本研究的目的是评估南非乙酰胆碱受体(AChR)抗体阳性重症肌无力(MG)的年龄和性别特异性发病率(IRs),以及发病率的地理差异。MethodsIRs根据2011年和2012年之间AChR抗体阳性实验室数据计算,使用2011年人口普查数据。每年每百万人有8.5人死亡2016年05月05日05:00 - 05:00(
IntroductionThe aim of this study was to assess age- and gender-specific incidence rates (IRs) of acetylcholine receptor (AChR)-antibody-positive myasthenia gravis (MG) in South Africa, and geographical variations in incidence.MethodsIRs were calculated from positive AChR-antibody laboratory data between 2011 and 2012, using 2011 population census data.Results890 individuals were seropositive, for an annual IR of 8.5 per million. Age-standardized IR for early-onset (
