Results of multiple sclerosis :

Risk Type	Disease risk
Main Result	Positive
Result	Furthermore, two SNPs, both on chromosome 1,located in the EVI5 (ecotropic viral integration site 5) gene gave significant P-values in our replication study:rs10735781 (P0.01, OR2.01, 95% CI 1.19–3.39) andrs6680578 (P0.01, OR1.9, 95% CI 1.16–3.11).
Mechanism/Pathway	It is still not clear whether thecausal allele acts through EVI5 itself.
