Chapter 10.4, Problem 20BYGO
Summary Introduction
To analyze:
Effects of myasthenia gravis on synaptic function and the effects of synaptic dysfunction to a person with myasthenia gravis (MG).
Introduction:
Myasthenia gravis (MG) is a long-term neuromuscular disease that ends up in variable degrees of muscular weakness. The most ordinarily affected muscles are those of the eyes, face and swallowing.
