Journal ArticleDOI
The epidemiology of Parkinson's disease in the county of Rogaland, Norway
TL;DR: The prevalence figures for PD in this study are slightly lower than those reported from most previous prevalence studies with a comparable study design for case finding, may be due to a careful diagnostic evaluation with the use of specified diagnostic criteria, excluding patients with other parkinsonian syndromes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Patients with myasthenia gravis and thymoma have in their sera IgG autoantibodies against titin
TL;DR: In this article, the authors found that myasthenia gravis (MG) and thymoma have in their sera antibodies which react with non-receptor antigens from striated muscle.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, a number of immunopositive cDNAs were cloned by immunoscreening muscle cDNA libraries with sera from myasthenia gravis (MG) patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Striational antibodies in myasthenia gravis: reactivity and possible clinical significance.
TL;DR: The detection of titin and ryanodine receptor antibodies provides more specific clinical information than the immunofluorescent demonstration of striational antibodies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antibodies in sera from patients with inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy react with ganglioside LM1 and sulphatide of peripheral nerve myelin.
TL;DR: Sera from 23 patients with acute Guillain Barré syndrome, 15 patients with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy and from 40 age-matched blood donors were analysed for antibodies to acidic glycosphingolipids from human brain and peripheral nerve.
