Association between baseline lipid profile and risk of worsening in patients with myasthenia gravis: A retrospective cohort study

Except for lipoprotein(a) levels being associated with worsening of myasthenia gravis, most lipid parameters were not associated with changes in the clinical course and severity of myasthenia gravis.we observed that lower levels of lipoprotein(a) were associated with a better prognosis in the interval 7-58 nml/L, whereas beyond this interval this was not observed, suggesting dyslipidemia may impact MG prognosis. Further studies are required to validate these findings.

Abstract

Except for lipoprotein(a) levels being associated with worsening of myasthenia gravis, most lipid parameters were not associated with changes in the clinical course and severity of myasthenia gravis.we observed that lower levels of lipoprotein(a) were associated with a better prognosis in the interval 7-58 nml/L, whereas beyond this interval this was not observed, suggesting dyslipidemia may impact MG prognosis. Further studies are required to validate these findings.
