Smoking cessation is crucial, as it may impact conversion risk and time. Unlike previous findings suggesting a protective role of pyridostigmine, our data indicate a strong association between high\u2010dose pyridostigmine and conversion to GMG, likely reflecting underlying disease severity. This underscores the need for individualized risk assessment in OMG management.<\/jats:p>\n
