Hi, Dan. Glad to see that you're doing some research!

What they aren't saying in this article is the recent "revelation" that vitamin D "might be" crucial in the prevention of development of autoimmune diseases. It's long been known that us Northern Europeans tend to have more AIs.

Studies such as this one don't take into account that people move around the planet and it's more difficult to say if it is actual genetics and/or environment that affects the development of AIs.

I'm surprised they even attempt to classify MuSK patients, since they have only been recently identified and I doubt the number of subjects for any study is that large.

I personally would be more interested in what studies they are doing in an attempt to cure this awful disease, and other AIs!

Annie
