Clinical and genetic characterisation of a large Indian congenital myasthenic syndrome cohort

Congenital myasthenic syndromes are a rare group of inherited disorders caused by gene defects associated with the neuromuscular junction and potentially treatable with commonly available medications such as acetylcholinesterase inhibitors and beta2 adrenergic receptor agonists. In this study we identify and genetically characterise the largest cohort of congenital myasthenic syndrome patients from India to date.
