“…Relative outcome rates in severe MG patients undergoing thymectomy increased by a median of 54% (p < 0.01) from the relative rate of the entire cohort. For example, in the cohort described by Perlo et al, 29 severe MG patients undergoing thymectomy were approximately 3.7 times more likely to attain remission than severe MG patients not undergoing thymectomy-a 50% increase over the relative remission rate of 2.4 of the entire thymectomy cohort described by Perlo et al 29 The calculated relative outcome rates within the mild 17,20,25,29,32 subgroup was not significantly different from the baseline rates.…”

“…The studies described by Mantegazza et al, 17 Papatestas et al, 20 Rodriguez et al, 25 Perlo et al, 29 and Zeldowicz and Saxton 32 allowed the calculation of relative rates within the severe disease subgroup. Relative outcome rates in severe MG patients undergoing thymectomy increased by a median of 54% (p < 0.01) from the relative rate of the entire cohort.…”
