Results of multiple sclerosis :

Risk Type Phenotypic risk
Main Result Positive
Result In the chronic progressive group of MS, the mF increased over a 3-year period and appeared to correlate with the clinical worsening of the disease.
Mechanism/Pathway The reason for the discrepancy in the mF between the different clinical disease categories might relate to underlying differences in the tempo and nature of the autoimmune processes that sustain the disease.
