Letter to the Editors in regard to the article “Predictive score for oral corticosteroid-induced initial worsening of seropositive generalized myasthenia gravis”

We read with interest the article by Kanai et al. [1] published in January 2019 issue of The Journal of Neurological Sciences entitled “Predictive score for oral corticosteroid-induced initial worsening of seropositive generalized myasthenia gravis”. Authors reported that steroid-induced initial worsening of myasthenia gravis (MG) symptoms was correlated with thymomatous MG or early onset (onset age <50 years) non-thymomatous MG (p = .018) in the abstract section. A similar statement was made in the beginning paragraph of the result section entitled “Predictive score for initial worsening risk”, with a reference to Table 1.
