| Sample Size | 64 Danish MS patients with that of 57 normal controls |
Literature information of multiple sclerosis :
| Pubmed ID | 7561955 |
| Year | 1995 |
| Title | Genetic susceptibility to multiple sclerosis may be linked to polymorphism of the myelin basic protein gene |
Results of multiple sclerosis :
| Risk Type | N/A |
| Main Result | negative |
| Result | The differences between incidence of the three band pattern in the MS and the control group were significant at 1% level. Validation analysis furthermore support, the view that the 1445 bp PCR fragment is associated with MS. |
| Mechanism/Pathway | N/A |
