1. Quantitative MRI Biomarkers of Neurodegeneration in Multiple Sclerosis
Sammanfattning : Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic neuroinflammatory and neurodegenerative disease that targets myelin in the brain and spinal cord. The corpus callosum connects the cerebral hemispheres and is composed of heavily myelinated axons. LÄS MER
2. Immunogenetic studies of multiple sclerosis
Sammanfattning : Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory, demyelinating and neurodegenerative disease of the central nervous system (CNS). Several genetic factors are likely to be of importance for MS rather than one factor. LÄS MER
3. Insights from comorbidity into multiple sclerosis aetiology and outcomes
Sammanfattning : Aim: The overall aim of this research was to investigate the nature of the comorbidities in multiple sclerosis (MS) in four large population-based studies. The first study assessed whether the diagnosis underlying appendicectomy is a useful marker of MS risk. LÄS MER
4. Tobacco and multiple sclerosis susceptibility
Sammanfattning : Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic immune-mediated disease of the central nervous system (CNS) that arises from a combination of a complex genetic predisposition and environmental factors. For northern Europeans, the lifetime risk of MS is 1:400, making it the most common non-traumatic cause of disability in young adults. LÄS MER
5. HLA genetics in multiple sclerosis
Sammanfattning : Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic disease in which both genetic and environmental risk factors contribute to disease susceptibility. MS patients suffer from inflammatory lesions in the central nervous system which results in demyelination of nerve cells, reduced neuronal activity and finally neurodegeneration. LÄS MER
