Core Tip	Mental disorders are the common comorbidities among myasthenia gravis (MG) patients in older age. In this study, we found that female patients with late-onset MG were more susceptible to anxiety and depression than their male counterparts, and that higher scores on the Myasthenia Gravis Quality of Life 15 questionnaire were an independent risk factor for anxiety and depression in patients with late-onset MG. This is the first report detailing the relationship between clinical features and mental health in the subgroup of MG patients with late disease onset.
