To identify potential biomarkers that can predict disease progression and prognosis.\n\nThis study recruits well-controlled patients with MG. Based on patient preferences and considerations such as coexisting conditions (e.g., uncontrolled hypertension, diabetes, severe osteoporosis, obesity), the participants will be non-randomly divided into two groups: a maintenance steroid therapy group and a withdrawal group (withdraw all immunosuppresants).
