abstract：:The HLA phenotype of fifty-four patients with myasthenia gravis (MG) was compared to that of 600 controls. When male and female patients were compared separately with the control group, HLA-B12 was increased in MG males (P less than 0-023) and HLA-A1, B8 in MG females (P less than 0-023). In addition, HLA-A1, B8 was c...
