MG-ADL, myasthenia gravis activities of daily living; QMG, quantitative myasthenia gravis score; MGC, Myasthenia Gravis Composite. a: Friedman test; b: repeated-measures ANOVA. All tests are two-sided with α = 0.05; p < 0.001 is reported as “<0.001”. Asterisks indicate comparisons versus baseline (Bonferroni-corrected). Statistically significant results (p < 0.05) are shown in bold.
