   Juvenile myasthenia gravis (i.e., JMG) refers to cases of MG that occur in children before the age of 19. It has been diagnosed in children as young as 8 months of age but, unlike TNMG, has not been diagnosed in fetuses (i.e., 9 weeks or older unborn offspring) or newborns. [ 15 ]

   Myasthenia gravis affects 50 to 200 people per million. [3] [4] It is newly diagnosed in 3 to 30 people per million each year. [13] Diagnosis has become more common due to increased awareness. [13] Myasthenia gravis most commonly occurs in women under the age of 40 and in men over the age of 60. [1] [5] [14] It is uncommon in children. [1]

   Congenital myasthenic syndrome (CMS) is an inherited neuromuscular disorder caused by defects of several types at the neuromuscular junction. The effects of the disease are similar to Lambert-Eaton Syndrome and myasthenia gravis, the difference being that CMS is not an autoimmune disorder. There are only 600 known family cases of this disorder ...

   Neuromuscular disease can also be diagnosed by various blood tests and using electrodiagnostic medicine tests [23] including electromyography [24] (measuring electrical activity in muscles) and nerve conduction studies. [25] Genetic testing is an important part of diagnosing inherited neuromuscular conditions. [23]

   [4] [6] Myasthenia gravis, too, may happen in the presence of tumors (thymoma, a tumor of the thymus in the chest); people with MG without a tumor and people with LEMS without a tumor have similar genetic variations that seem to predispose them to these diseases. [3] HLA-DR3-B8 (an HLA subtype), in particular, seems to predispose to LEMS. [6]
