Correlations of quality of life and functional status. The linear mixed model shows a significant positive correlation between the QMG (modified) and the MG-QoL15 and the MG-ADL and the MG-QoL15. (a) Scatter-plot: significant positive correlation between QMG (modified) and MG-QoL15. A 1-point increase in QMG results in an estimated mean 17.6-point increase in MG-QoL15. Note: number of presentations: 99; number of patients: 63. Intercept: coefficient 7.75; SE 1.90; p < 0.001. QMG: coefficient 17.60; SE 2.80; p < 0.001. (b) Scatter-plot: significant positive correlation between MG-ADL and MG-QoL15. Note: number of presentations: 81; number of patients: 54. Intercept: coefficient 5.95; SE 1.76; p = 0.001. MG-ADL: coefficient 2.55; SE 0.30; p < 0.001

Abbreviations: MG-ADL = Myasthenia Gravis-Activities of Daily Living scale, MG-QoL15 = 15-item Myasthenia Gravis-Quality of Life scale, QMG = Quantitative Myasthenia Gravis Score
