Explanation |
|---|---|
|
|
Because patient’s location is unknown it’s not possible to know which Austrian medical specializations are relevant for the illness. Therefore only generic |
|
|
Country-code option is used. It’s known the patient is in Austria, so the API can add the relevant Austria-specific medical specializations for the response model. Therefore |

"description": "Myasthenia gravis is an autoimmune disease in which the transmission of nerve signals to muscle cells is disturbed. At the beginning of the disease, the symptoms are very mild, tend to appear in the evening when the patient is very tired, and improve or disappear after appropriate rest periods. Patients often perceive double images, mostly in connection with unilaterally or bilaterally unevenly drooping eyelids or increased blinking. About 20 percent of those affected only have eye complaints or vision problems. Other possible symptoms include difficulty swallowing or chewing and unclear pronunciation. If the facial muscles are also affected, the mimic may appear expressionless, possibly with drooping corners of the mouth or facial paralysis. If there are possible signs of myasthenia gravis or difficulties with rapidly changing movements, affected persons should consult a doctor as soon as possible. The disease is currently not curable, however affected persons can usually live and work normally with the right therapy.",

"detailedOutlook": "Myasthenia gravis is currently not curable. Those affected are not fully able to work, but with the right therapy they can usually live normally and even work.",
"detailedDiagnosis": "If there are any possible signs of MG, those affected should consult a doctor as soon as possible. For diagnosis, it is clarified when and in what context the respective symptoms occur. Neurological examinations can provide information about the function of the nerves and the fatigability of the muscles.<br><br>In most cases, a blood test can detect certain antibodies that are responsible for the disorder. With the help of X-rays or a computer tomography, doctors should also rule out an enlargement of the thymus or a thymoma.<br><br>If the thymus is enlarged in adults or a thymoma is found, a surgeon should surgically remove the thymus. Afterwards, the symptoms subside considerably in the majority of patients. In general, drugs that suppress the immune system, so-called immunosuppressants, can often provide long-term improvement. In severe cases, other immunological therapies can also be considered.",
"detailedOverview": "Myasthenia gravis, or MG for short, is an autoimmune disease in which the transmission of nerve signals to the muscle cells is disturbed. A possible consequence is rapid fatigue of the muscles, similar to paralysis.<br><br>At the beginning of the disease, the symptoms are still very slight, tend to show up when the patient is very tired in the evening, and improve or disappear after appropriate periods of rest. Patients often experience double vision, usually in connection with unequal drooping of the eyelids on one or both sides or increased blinking. Some sufferers only have eye complaints or visual disturbances.<br><br>Other possible symptoms include difficulty swallowing or chewing and slurred speech. If the facial muscles are also affected, facial expressions may appear expressionless, and there may be drooping corners of the mouth or facial paralysis. In severe cases, the entire skeletal musculature is affected, causing patients to stumble, fall or drop things more often. In some people, the respiratory muscles are also affected, with coughing and even acute respiratory distress.<br><br>The disease usually breaks out around the age of 30 and tends to affect women more often than men.",
