[Digestion and absorption of food substances by patients with the generalized form of myasthenia].
The results of coprological studies demonstrated that prior to thymectomia, in most of the patients with myasthenia there was a disturbed assimilation of lipids and carbohydrates, while as in 1/3 - a disturbed assimilation of proteins. These disorders were the reasons for a significant drop of weight in 60.9% of the patients. Following thymectomia with an improvement of the general state and a rehabilitation of transverse striped muscles there are, as a rule, positive dynamics in the assimilation of the above-mentioned food ingredients. Thus, the achieved results may indicate to a functional character of the changes in the digestive organs in myasthenia.
